Happy Birthday Angel #3

This little angel had a birthday in February, he turned the big age of 10.

This is him right before he opened his presents. Can't you see the excitement in his eyes? We love angel #3 in our family. He has such a great sense of humor.




This is a video of him and his dad at a little talent show at Thanksgiving at Grandma's house. He likes to sing off or on key.:) He is part of the honor choir at his school.



He also recieved an award at school for showing teamwork in the month of February. We are so proud of him.

Happy Birthday Angel #3.

Happy Birthday Angel #5

Happy Birthday Angel #5.

He really likes Diego right now so he loved this present.
I love how all the kids get into opening presents, it is a fun event for all.

Don't you love siblings.:) Our angel #5 had a great birthday. Some of our friends from winnemucca were able to be here and have cake with him and he loved that. He also made sure to invite his friend Abby, but this mom didn't have her camera out when they were all here. We love this Angel #5 and hope he had a great 3rd birthday.



Run for a wish

We decided to run a 5k with the kid's elementary school. The 5k was for the make a wish foundation. The 5k was at an outdoor mall, road surrounding and parkinglot downtown.

We ran it with a good friend of ours Alicia. This is a picture of us right before the great event. Don't we look so excited?

It decided to rain that day.:) What a day to run. This is me with angels #4 and #3. We are almost done. My angels would like me to post when they finished, so here it is.
Angel 1-26 minutes
Angel 2 and Alicia together-31 minutes
Angel 3 and head Angel-37 minutes
Angel 4 and myself-49 minutes
This is a picture after we all got done soaked by the rain. I was so proud of our kids for finishing the race whether they ran or walked most of the way. We loved it and are looking forward to doing it again.

October in a nutshell

October has come and gone so I will give you a few highlights. At the beginning of the month my sister and her family came to visit. It was alot of fun I wish I had pictures to post of that but of course I don't. She helped to transfer kids to different rooms to give our angel #4 her own room due to the fact that she is our only girl. It was alot of work and I appreciate my sister for all her help. I wish I lived closer to her.

Angel #4 got an award for her citizenship at her school we were very proud of her. The sun was right in their eyes that is why they were squinting.:)

My mom came for my birthday later in the month. How lucky am I!!! A visit from my sister at the beginning of the month and a visit from my mother in the middle of the month. While my mom was there we made this pumpkin cake. Doesn't it look cool? We had alot of fun shopping. The weekend was gone before we knew it though and then she had to go home. It would be great to live closer to family.
To end the month we went to visit the town we moved from to see our old friends. It was a great visit and I am really glad we were able to see everyone there. There was only a few we missed seeing. We are so grateful for the friendships that we have from there. The people there are the best. We miss them.
It was a great month and on to November.
