Ashton was such a hard worker. The funny thing is, we have one small tree that has leaves that fall. It's our neighbors tree that has all the leaves that fall and blow into our yard!

Fall is our favorite time of the year. Here are the kids in action performing their stunts! Some well deserved play after helping dad rake the yard.

Who couldn't love faces like those.

This year was a big year for school. Ashton moved over to Schall.

This year was also BIG for Hunter! He started Kindergarten.The first two weeks were kinda rough, it's awful to have your baby screaming "MOMMY" as Mr. Wheeler holds him back and you have to turn around and leave with tears pouring, but we made it through!

This last summer we made a trip to Beaver Lake. While we broke down on the way and it rained most of the day, we did have some nice weather and a great time. Hailey and Lindy joined us and had a ball.

Hunter caught the most fish and the biggest when he went fishing with Daddy and Uncle Wayne. Who's the REAL fishernman now guys!!!

The lake was beautiful at sunset and tried to get a glimpse of Jehovah's wonderful creation on film

Well, it's been well over a year since I've been able to post anything. Mark got hurt and that was all she wrote. Well, I had the opportunity to update a little with pics. So here they are!They are getting so BIG!

I took these pics just this fall 2010.What a cutie What some awesome kids!

An Afternoon of Fishing!

We stopped in Sebewaing to eat dinner at McD's. The kids just had to pose with Ronald!
Here's our beauty! What an outdoors girl! Best of both worlds!
We saw all sorts of wildlife that day! Ducks, geese, muskrats, turkeys, cranes, pheasants, deer, swans and a cat all huddled in some thick brush laying in the sun!
There's nothing like going on a little hike and exploring the surroundings! Let's see who can jump the puddles!
Ashton likes to fish but she has more fun with the bait whether we're using worms or minnows!
Hunter is cast and reel kinda guy! And he sure can cast that baby a long way out! He had so much fun!
Here they are waiting for the BIG BITE!
We decided that we were going to take the kids fishing Sat. since it was going to be a nice day. Here's our great fish daddy setting us all up. But whatever you do, don't ask who caught the most fish!!

YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!

Ok, so the pictures are sideways, I know. But the video took so long to upload that I wasn't about to go back and change them. And the video is a must see! There may be a way to do that after they are already up, but I haven't figured it out yet. Anyone know?

Concentrate people.

The pictures don't need to be right to see how cute this bunch is!

The next American Idol!!? :) This night was sooo much fun! The guys really got into it. We love playing rock band with everybody. And yes, Landon rocks on "The Eye of The Tiger". But Mark might be some stiff competition! :)

Silly!

I love this picture! She didn't know she had the chocolate milk mustache until I showed her the picture. Sooo funny!

I put Hunter on vacuum duty to keep him busy while Ashton and I rearranged her bedroom. I went into the living room to check on him and he was really getting the job done! Susie seemed to love the attention.
