Summer 2008

Ok, ok, I know, it has been forever since I updated this thing. So, here I go. I will try to give a brief summary of our summer so far. ( I can't believe it's almost over already!!) For the most part we have been pretty laid back this summer. Kind of a nice change of pace but Mom is ready for school to start.

Travis started working the 7-4 shift which has been awesome!! The kids have really loved having Daddy home at dinner and bedtime. It has been nice for me too!

A couple of weeks ago we bought a family swimming pass to the local pool. The kids are absolutely loving it, since it has been too hot to really play outside much.

We spent July 4th at Grandma and Grandpa Rushton's so Daddy could help Grandpa put in a sprinkler system. And we spent Pioneer Day at Grandma and Grandpa Ferris'. The kids has a fun time in the little swimming pool, especially Austin. (Pics to follow.)

We took the kids camping overnight in June which was quite the adventure. Let's just say it rained all night and there was lots of mud in the morning. I think we have some pics of that too. I also decided that camping and being pregnant aren't exactly a great combo. All in all we did have fun.

Most recently was Austin's birthday. I can't believe he is two already, and boy is he two. The terrible twos have hit in full force at our house. I would write about all the trouble he has made but that would take all day. I think I will leave that for another post.

Well, with summer coming to an end Tyler and Kaylee are gearing up for school. Tyler will be in 2nd grade and Kaylee is going to Kindergarten. She is soooo excited. We are also starting the baby countdown. As of today I have 7 and 1/2 weeks left until baby time. Wow that seems soon. Travis and Tyler are also looking forward to the beginning of BYU football.

That's all for now. I do have pics to post but don't have time right now. I will try to be better at posting, but with school starting and baby coming I won't make any promises. :) Love to all!!

Check out my Slide Show!


These are just a bunch of pictures that we have taken from the last year or so. Hope you like them.

What we've been up to.

Here are some recent pictures. These should let you know a little bit about what's been going on around here lately.


Kaylee graduated from preschool last week. She can't wait to go to kindergarten and doesn't think it's very fair that she has to wait all summer.













Tyler started playing machine pitch baseball this year. He is doing great at it and having a lot of fun.





Austin loves to go to Tyler's baseball games. He wears me out trying to keep him off the field. He wants to be right in the middle of it all.




So far it has been a busy spring. School gets out in two weeks and we can't wait for a little bit of a slow down.

Yes, it's true.










So, since Trine announced it for us, I will confirm that we are having another boy. And here is the picture to prove it. He isn't exactly the modest type yet. Kaylee wasn't exactly thrilled with the news and has said that Daddy can take care of all the boys so she and Mommy can play. She also looked at me the other day and said, "Mommy, boys are yucky. "

Somebody's gotta do it!

This is Trine. since Kristi has not had time to update this thing, I have taken it upon myself to do so for her!!! (She doesn't know that I am doing this, by the way!) Big news.... Kristi and Travis are expecting another.........


BOY!!! They do not have a name picked out yet, I think Garrett is cute, but they are not commiting to anything yet! The baby is due around September 20th.

Our first blog entry

I keep getting bugged that I need to start a blog so here we go. This might be an easier way for us to keep in touch with all of our family and friends. (Since we're not very good at it.) I will try to update as often as possible. I will start with some pics of the kids.

I should also let all of you who don't know already that we are unexpectedly expecting baby number four in September. We will find out the sex of the baby in another month or so and will keep everyone updated.

Love you all.
