Project Poodle

With Halloween just around the corner Sydney and I spent the afternoon working on her costume. She helped me lay the material to measure and cut it and then sat by me while I sewed on it. I don't know if she's ever seen me use the sewing machine before....probably because I rarely sew, and when I do it's during the kids' naps. Anyways, she was very interested and we had lots of fun. Here are some pictures of our project.

Of course the Minnie Mouse shirt won't be a part of the costume ;-)

Jackson's coloring

Balloon fun

sunny day

After posting some pictures on Facebook of me as a baby I had several people comment on how much they could see Jackson in me. So, just for kicks I put together this picture of all four of us when we were one year old. On top it's me and Jackson, and on bottom it's Sydney and McKay. what do you think?

A new beginning.

So, thanks to tons of help from McKay we have compiled all our past blogging updates into this blog. Thanks to Linda, Angie, Andrea, and everyone else who has wonderful blogs where I got good ideas for mine. I'm hoping this blog will be easier to maintain and keep everyone updated on our lives while we're so far from home.

Bull Dozer Cake

On Tuesday McKay and I made a cake for one of our missionary's birthdays. I guess he used to drive a bull dozer for work before his mission and he requested this cake. It was pretty fun to put together.

A morning at Poplar Gap

This weekend we took the kids up to Poplar Gap. They love running around and playing together. The weather is cooling down and we love being outside. Here are a few pictures.
