Good Morning Ya'll

This picture is for my family down south. Here is the view from my kitchen window. Just another "yankee" sunrise from the big sky of Montana!!!

My "Little Old Man"

Love those eyes & that dimple!!

Such a serious kid... must have a lot on his mind!?!

Tater is the one who really makes me feel old. I swear he grew up over night!! Every day he still finds a way to amaze me, sometimes not always good, but he's a boy... that's expected!! I'm loving watching him grow into his own person. I'm afraid to close my eyes... next thing I'll know, he'll be 18!!!

My Ladybug

Well, it's that time of year again...pictures!!! Every year I'm amazed at how much my kids have changed in a year, but this year I'm just flabbergasted! Riley Jo is still my baby girl and always will be, but she is far from a baby. I do not know what I'm going to do next year when she starts school. I have really enjoyed our time together.

"Learning the Ropes"

Creative Punisment

The other day the boys had a hard time behaving so, being the creative parents that we are, as their punishment Matt gave them each a small screwdriver and told them to go get every little rock out of all of the truck tires. It kept them out of trouble for a little while anyway!!!

Princess & Soldier

This year Riley Jo decided that she wanted to be a princess, complete with wand and fancy hair and makeup, and Tater had a hard time making up his mind, but finally settled on being a soldier. A pretty handsome one, I might add.

We went trick or treating in town with some friends this year. Here's a shot of the whole gang.

Carving Pumpkins

Oh what fun. . .

The end result... 2 scary(?!?) pumpkins.
