We are still here

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. We have been super busy. We moved out of our apartment over Halloween weekend! YEAH!!! Therefore we have been without our computer since then. I have soo many pictures that I want to post but an unable to since the cord to my camera is somewhere in a box in our storage unit.

But alas there is good news! Nathan got a job working in the same building at the WA Army National Guard. He is a rear detachment SGT for a company that is Deploying to Afganistan. So that means he will be the guy who sits in an office in Union Gap taking care of all the things that the unit will not be able to do while they are out of country. This is such a blessing to us. It is ful time job with benifits and a much better salary.

We hope to be in a house soon and be able to access our stuff (such as a camera cord) so we can show you what we have been up to. (ex: Halloween, Veteran's Parade, and Ethan's Lost tooth!!!) I can't believe how fast the time is flying with our wonderfully amazing kids.

This is only the start...

Hey mom, look what I can do!

First day of preschool and soccer!

Amie started pre school last week. She loved it! She was so excited to go. Then when we got there she got camera shy! Sometime I have no idea what goes through her little head. She is so cute and loves to go! Her first day outfit was picked out with grandpa's help. She looked so adorable!


Ethan has started soccer. He LOVES it. Right now it is soccer this and soccer that. He has so much fun playing and is pretty good. He scored 2 goals his first game and then the second game he scored three!

First day of Kindergarten!

Ethan had his first day of kindergarten today! He is getting to be such a big boy!

Our Summer Trip Part 2

We were driving back up to Salt lake and we were going through a little town and the kids saw this car so of coarse we had to stop and take a picture in the Flintstones car.

We also went to the Hogle Zoo there was a baby Giraffe and three baby Tigers we saw one of them. Ethan's favorite animal right now is a tiger so he was so excited about that. Amie of coarse loved the monkeys.


We went through Zion's National Park and camped there for the night. It was so much fun and absolutely beautiful! We had fun roasting hot dogs and making smore's.


This was taken as we were entering the Park it was so pretty! There was a tunnel that was over a mile long. The kids thought that was fun to go through. We told them they had to hold their breath the whole time and Ethan would tell us, "I am still holding my breath!"

Our Summer Vacation Part 1

We had a very fun and very full summer trip this year. We were gone 10 days and traveled through 7 different states. It was crazy and we had lots of fun! Here are some pictures which aren't in order of when we visited.

This was at the dinosaur museum we went to outside of Lehi, Ut. Ethan was so excited to go to it. He loved all the dinosaur bones we had to take pictures next to all of them. He now has decided that he will be a paleontologist when he grows up.

This was when we were in Nevada visiting Nathan's sister.

We also went to Lagoon with most of my family. It was so much fun and Amie was a little daredevil! She wasn't afraid to go on anything! Ethan on the other hand would only go on the rides that went a round in a circle. Nothing to thrilling.

This was taken in Rexburg, ID. The red slide in this picture was the very same red slide that Nathan and I had out first kiss and then asked me to marry him. The kids thought it was much more fun to play then to listen to mom and dad's stories.

This was taken at the Wild Rose Resort on Henrey's Lake in Island Park, Id. It is a few miles from West Yellowstone Mt. The kids loved running around the lake.
