Santa visited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moose decided to eat all of the Lifesaver books and the Chocolate Santa's out of the stockings!!!!!!!!!!! He wanted a part of Christmas too.

Camden's loot!!

Avery and her sexy bed head!

Ayden's stereo.

The kids scored this Christmas like always. Santa is way too good to them. We all had fun. It makes me sick when Christmas is over. I wish it was a 3 day process. All that work and it is done in a matter of minutes. Back to work now. Not excited about that at all. Merry Christmas to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am thinking about all of you.

Camden's FIRST Birthday!!!!!!!!!!

The whole family came over to celebrate Camden's first Birthday. He had a great time having all of the Cousins over and playing with balloons for the first time! Camden wasn't a big fan of opening his presents or eating his very own cake. I guess he doesn't like to get dirty when I say it's okay. He only likes to make messes and get dirty when I say "No."

It has been a fabulous year! I didn't know anything was missing in my little family until he decided to show up! I love him and my other 2 kids soooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!

Camden's new past time...climbing in the cupboards!! AAAHHHHH!!!!!!

Thanksgiving!

Camden enjoyed his first yummy turkey dinner!
The feast our way!

Josh stayed up all night cooking our yummy dinner. I know ladies...He is AWESOME!!!! I count my blessing daily. However, I try not to let him know how much I need him. The trick is keeping him on his toes!

Grandpa Shumway graced us with his presence for the first time this Thanksgiving. It was nice to have him and Marc (my Brother) and his boys to Celebrate with.

Bobcat & Wolfe!!!!!!

We are so very proud of Ayden!!!! He received both his bobcat and Wolfe badges in the same night!!!!! He was recognized in front of the other boys and their parents. I had the wonderful opportunity to have Ayden pin both pins on me as well for helping (even though it was all Josh)! To be honest...Cub Scouts is way over my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Camden is almost 1 years old and getting a little too heavy for me to be lugging him around in his infant car seat. For both his Birthday and Christmas present...my Mom and Dad bought Camden his big boy car seat! It was very exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Camden finds it very entertaining to face forward and see out the front windshield. Could life get any better that that?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grandma Mac's Halloween Party!

Grandma Mac made all of the Grand kids a Halloween bag. They were filled with light sticks, a candy and a stuffed animal. Camden was so excited when he saw his turtle that he got!

Grandma & Grandpa Mac grow their own pumpkins. The kids drew a # so that there was no fighting over any pumpkins. (There would definitely be fighting amongst all of the Cousins!) This is Ayden's pumpkin that he got and painted. The funny this is...he painted it upside down!!!!!

This is Avery's sweet pumpkin she painted. Nothing but flowers and glamour from her!

All the kids loved the doughnut on the string! It was hilarious watching them trying to do this!!!!!!

My handsome husband and I!!!!!!!!!! We never take pictures together! One is always taking the pics while the other is helping the kids. He is pretty HOT!!!!!!!!!!!

Halloween Night!

The before picture!

...and the After picture! My husband grew his hair out just so he could cut a mullet for Halloween! Hands off ladies...he is MINE!

Beautiful Avery as a Pretty Witch!

Ayden as an Indian and Camden as a Lion. Camden did not dig the hat. He only wore it for a few minutes that whole night.

2009 Halloween was a blast! Nothing better than family, friends and a whole bunch of candy!!!!! This was Camden's first Halloween. He did pretty well. My kids and husband are the best! I love how much fun they are!

Josh & Brenda's Halloween Party!!!!!

(Left to Right) Ayden, Camden, Avery, Briggs, Tate, McCoy!!!!!

Camden's first Oreo Cookie! Josh thought it would be funny to give him one. I am not into messy things!!!!!! I was not too happy to have to clean this up. Camden enjoyed it immensely though!!!!!!

Camden's First Haircut!

The finished product!

Camden wasn't digging his Aunt Crystal cutting his hair.

Camden's hair had to get cut. We couldn't style it any way because his hair is soooooo long. For only 10 months...he has the most hair out of all of our kids at this age.

October 2009 Deer Hunt!!!!!!

Camden being Mr. Cheesy

This was Ayden's first year he got to go hunting with his Dad on opening day. They all woke up at 3 a.m. and headed out. Ayden hiked with his Dad and Uncle Sean 3 1/2 miles strait up a mountain. He kept up with all of them! He was pretty tired at the end...but he made it. Ayden hiked 7 miles in all. What a trooper!!!!!!!!!!!!

Staheli Farm Festivities!!!!!!!!!!!

On Saturday October 10, we took the kids to the Staheli Farm pumpkin patch and corn maze. We had the best time ever!!!!!!!!! They have a petting zoo, pumpkin patch, horseback rides, playground, etc. We spent a good 3 hours there running around after the kids.

Fall is the best time ever!!!!! I love the smells, the Holliday's, and best of all...the food! My family is everything to me. Josh and I enjoy every moment that we spend with the kids. Happy Harvest to all!
