Ford is 2!!!

Here is Ford with his piece of cake with the tongue that he ate first. The tongue was a piece of pink taffy.

After we sang Happy Birthday, dad and Ford were pretending that the puppy was biting them. Dad put his nose to the cake and so did Ford, Uncle Weston could not stand not tapping his head into his cake. Ford was a good sport about it.

The kids feeling the tongue to make sure it was not real.

The puppy Dalmation cake, inspired by the movie 101 dalmations. It is Ford's favorite movie, the woof woof show.

Halloween!!!

Trick or Treating with the princess, cowboy and witch!
Daddy and his little cowboy.

Avril and Izabel showing their costumes for Halloween aren't they cute!

This is Grandma June trying to get Ford to wear his costume.

This is the only picture and only time Ford wore his whole costume! He looked so cute wearing the horse and his cowboy hat. Maybe he will keep it on next year.

Excited to go to Grandma Mary's for the Big Candy bars and Gum!

Thanks Grandma Mary, we love you!

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Patch

Thanks Aunt Kristie for taking us to the pumpkin patch it sure was fun!

This is Ford realizing the wagon is heavy and can't pull it without mommy helping.

Ford dressed in his BSU gear, game day of course. He is loving pulling the wagon.

Best Buds! They take care of eachother so well and play together all the time, I love it! It was such a beautiful evening, notice the sunset.

Izabel found her pumpkin!

Ford found his too!

This is mom helping them find the right ones.

Izabel posing looking great next to the big pumpkin. She loves Halloween and is excited to go to Grandma Mary's to go trick or treating.

Pumpkin weight lifting.

Izabel in a pile of Pumpkins!

Harvest Time!

Izabel is proud of the potatoes she planted!

Worms are Ford's new buddies. He will find one and hang on to it all afternoon. Can you see the one in his hand.

This is Ford licking his snot and holding on to his precious worm!

He loves WORMS!

This is a Big One!

Yea, for worms. Look how I can stretch it!

Here is Adam, Ford, Izabel and friend digging for Gold aka Potatoes. The kids loved it!

We got quite a bit for the little area we dug. Red ones, yukon golds and russets.

New Addition to the Family

Izabel holding little Kaisley, she loved holding her and knowing she came out of Summer's Belly.

Ford was so excited to hold her, he was very smitten with her from the beginning. The video shows him lovin on her and giving her a kiss.

Congratulations to Summer and Chris! You have a beautiful little girl! We love you all and miss you!

Note: That makes 5 grand kids for Grandma and Grandpa Blackhurst

Towards the end of Summer.....

Here we are up in Soda Springs taking a family photo. Adam has been spending a lot of time up there because of work. It was so nice to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Harris, we love you guys!

I was playing with my camera and liked these old fashion pics of the kids. Here is a typical Ford pose sucking his finger.

I love this picture of Izabel , she looks so serious but pretty at the same time.

We went on a hike up in Soda and the kids loved it. As you can tell.

This place is so beautiful. Ford got tired in the end and loved the way home on daddy's shoulders. By the way Ford is talking so much more now and is repeating so much. He calls all of his uncles Da and his Dad "Daddy".

4th of July

I don't know what this is but it was on the ranch and I thought it looked neat.

Here is uncle Ryan shooting at Bear River.

Here is Aunt Mary looking tough like she is at boot camp.

Here are the three amigos getting a bath together after a long day of playing hard at the ranch.

Adam crashing on the beach at Bear Lake.

Ryan and Kristie at the small town parade. Preparing for the Volleyball tournament. The tournament that we WON!

Here is Ford loving the parade with a ball in one hand and a sucker in the other.

Elly and Izabel enjoying their first merry-go-round ride. They both loved it!

This was soooo cool, Soda Springs puts on the BEST 4th of July celebration. The fire department goes to the park in town and blows this foam in an area so people can play in it. It was so cool. Izabel and Elly tried it but got sprayed by the hoses so they got scared. Ford on the other hand loved it.

This is Weston and Lincoln slippin sliding down the hill at Uncle Wade's house. Both Lincoln and Weston put on quite the show.

The three amigos again getting ready for Bear Lake, they had so much fun seeing eachother morning, noon, and night.

This is Ford when we first got to Bear Lake.

This is Ford about 2 hours into the time at Bear Lake. He was the one who had the funnest. He ran around like crazy and kept on the going to a warm sess pool to play.

Elly and Izabel are good pals. We are so glad she came!

Izabel was a bell in her new red, white, and blue outfit.

Thanks to Grandpa and Grandma Harris for letting us stay in the Bunk Houses and use the Cookhouse. We had so much fun and are looking forward to next year where we will take the volleyball championship again!
