Easter Fun!

Loni, Miley, and Uncle RJ sitting on the four-wheeler during the legendary egg-fight.

Miley finally figured out the egg rolling and thought it was so much fun. But after a while she decided she needed to follow them down the hill, which wouldn't have been a good thing if she wrecked our awesome trails.

What would we do without Uncle Jake's talents of making the coolest trails for our eggs to roll down. The kids love it. Thanks Uncle Jake!

Bo watching the eggs go!!

Miley had the most fun out of anyone out at Caanan. She wa all over the place and loved playing in the dirt. I think she followed all the dogs around and was in seventh heaven. If only them dang dogs would kiss her back! LOL

Grandma Slack and Miley sitting together after the egg hunt.

Casek was such a critter. Maybe he is just getting older and I am not ready for it yet. But this is the only pic I got of him during the egg hunt, well the end of the egg hunt. The gate opened and he was off. I didn't see him again until it was all said and done. So no pics of him searching :(

Miley didn't get too many eggs cause once she found her first one, she just like to rattle it around in her bucket. She thought it was pretty cool pickign them up and putting them in the bucket.

Grandpa Larry and Miley. She is definitely Grandpa's Girl :)

Miley running around with sticks. anything is entertaining to a one year old.

Bo and Lincoln getting ready to do some target shooting.

Bo ready to play hard at Caanan.

Our end masterpieces. Dying eggs was quite a treat this year. Miley liked to smash them faster than her brothers could dye them. Luckily we had extra. I loved Casek and Miley purple tipped noses. My kids definitely entertain me and keep me going :) But I wouldn't trade them.

We also celebrated Little Luke's birthday at Caanan. He is three years old and getting so big. Happy Birthday Luke.

PS Special thanks to Lloyd and Katie for letting us ride their fun toys. You made Casek's day with the motorcycle.

Happy Birthday Miley!

Here is my little one year old. We are having a party for her tonight at mom and dad's with a Strawberry Shortcake Cake. Casek and Bo are more excited than Miley is for her birthday. They are so tender with their baby sister.

Casek made Miley a car for her birthday. He cut up a cardboard box and taped some training wheels on it. He was so proud of his little creation. Miley loves to sit in it for awhile, but she would rather be chasing her brothers around.

Miley got an early birthday present yesterday by getting tubes put in her ears. She is like a whole new baby. Her ears were so full of infection that the vacuum clogged, when they were sucking it all out. She is a lot happier and moving like crazy. We are glad that she is feeling better and hopefully we won't have another ear infection for a very long time.

We want to wish Lincoln a Happy Happy Birthday too!

Happy Birthday Zack!

Today is Zack Barnes' Birthday! We would like to wish him a happy happy birthday!

Happy Birthday Loni and Kiley!

Miss Loni Sue turned 4 on February 20th. She had a fun birthday party with all the cousins after the wrestling tournament.

Kiley Ann turns 13, the BIG 13, today. She is such a sweetheart. And is getting so old.

Happy Birthday Loni and Kiley!!

Grandma and Grandpa's Anniversary

For Grandma and Grandpa Slack's wedding anniversary, I took the 3 younger kids to the cemetery while the other two were at school. We talked about Grandpa being gone, and how much we enjoyed Grandma being around. I told them that it was their wedding anniversary, and that is why we were there for the visit. After quite some time Maddie said, "Mom, how long before Grandpa gets here? How is he coming from heaven to the wedding? I can't wait to see him. I just don't know how he can do it and leave heaven?" As you can imagine, I had some explaining to do. She was cute about it. We then went over to Grandma's house to give her some chocolates and flowers. It wasn't even 30 seconds later after giving her our gifts, and the kids had the chocolates open and half eaten. We enjoyed hanging out with her and visiting. I love special occasions! ..............................................................
Maddie wanted to share a picture she drew. She also wanted to just have her picture on the blog. Enjoy!

Thinking of You

Happy Anniversary Grandma. Thinking of you and Grandpa on this special day. We LOVE you!

Thanksgiving, Alice, Barn Clean Up and Birthday

Susan, Shelly, Sharon and Grandma headed off to see Alice. Here are a few pictures they took.

.................................................................

I had a great time with my preschoolers. We all dressed up like pilgrims or Indians and had a huge feast. Here are some pics of me and my kids.

...................................................................

Here are some pictures that grandma took of Thanksgiving Dinner in Milford. I heard you guys had a great time. Maybe next time we'll be hangin' with you. This year I was in charge of my side of the family. It went really well.

................................................................

Grandma asked for a clean-up, so a clean-up we had. Thanks to all of you who showed up and participated in it. The lot looks so much bigger with things organized, hauled off, and burned. the food and the visiting was great too.

...................................................................

for grandpa's birthday this year we had family over to our house for apple pie. I love that tradition. Happy memories came along with it. The next day we went to the cemetery with grandma and had cake and ice cream. Going to the cemetery is a happy time for us. Lots of smiles and stories.

I've tried to teach my children respect for others and objects/things. We were all minding our P's and Q's and until I look over at Jack, and he was riding grandpa's headstone line a bucking bull. I about died, in fear of what grandma would think. She simply smiled and said, "I be grandpa is looking down smiling right now. I bet he is happy that you guys are enjoying his birthday." I needed to hear that. Grandma is so loving and understanding. How grateful I am to be a part of this family. Thanks to all of you.
