Finally an update!

Okay so it has been awhile. I guess I will start by giving a little update on everyone.

Michael

He turned one in September. He loves to play with cars, balls, and Ashlynn. He is saying a lot more these days, his favorite word I would say is football. Bryan loves it. Gus goes around saying football all day, and loves to watch it with his Dad. I haven't got a picture of that yet, but I will tonight for the national championship game. Another favorite thing of his is to climb, especially on to the table so he can dance. He has all of his teeth and has had them for awhile. Gus also loves to read books, he loves story time at the library.

Ashlynn

Ashlynn is growing up so fast, and she lets me know by telling me that she isn't little anymore she is a big girl. I can't believe that she is in sunbeams. She isn't sure about sunbeams yet. She doesn't cry or anything she just doesn't think that it is fun. Ashlynn also loves to play outside in the snow. She loves to make snow angels and to build snow forts and have a snowball fight. She also loves to read and wants to go to school. Ashlynn also loves art. Her favorite art activity is painting.

Bryan

Is busy doing the usually thing. He works four tens, so he gets Fridays off. We have been able to do a lot of stuff. Bryan has been doing a lot of ice fishing lately. Ashlynn likes to go with him and so do I. I will post a couple of pictures of Ashlynn fishing.

Me

I am doing the same thing as always. I don't have anything new to report.

We went to a 4th of July parade in Ten Sleep. The kids had a lot of fun and got a lot of candy. After the parade we went to a fish hatchery and had lunch. Michael loved looking at the fish.

This was when we went up to a lake in the mountains. This is the first fish that Ashlynn has mostly caught on her own.

Michael

Michael is doing good. He is scouting all over the place, and is very eager to start walking. He will pull to a stand and then will let go and try to go, but falls down. He has four teeth and loves to eat food. He also loves animals. He will try and grab at Papa and shorty's chickens and loves to be with Rudy. I am excited to see him with the new puppies.

Ashlynn

Ashlynn is getting so big. It is hard to believe that she is turning three soon. She is a big talker (can't get her to stop). She loves to read and loves to be outside. She loves to go to papa and shorty's house and see the chickens and play in the playhouse. Ashlynn also loves to play with Michael. Another fun thing that she has been doing is pretending that we are other people. Some days I am one of my sisters Jenna or Monica and she likes to pretend that she is her cousins and Michael is her cousin too (her favorite is to be Katie and Cassidy at the same time and Gus is Rory). It is pretty funny. She loves to have friends over and to go to the park and play with friends, she is a social bug. She makes friends everywhere she goes. Ashlynn also loves to go fishing with Bryan, they both have a lot of fun.

Finally an update!

Well we have been very busy lately. We finished are office, bathroom is almost done and soon we will be putting in a deck and balcony outside and a playfort for ashlynn.

Christmas

At the zoo. It was really cold that day. They didn't have much to see, but Ashlynn said she only wanted to see deer, elk, and moose.
