Trenton and Thor

This is one of Trenton's favorite friends. Most every time I go outside I see Trenton wrestling Thor. He's got him in a choke hold most of the time. Thor takes it on most days. He will growl when he has had enough. Jared and I keep telling him that he better stop before Thor gets mad enough to get back at him. Well today he was in the front yard doing the usual and I heard Thor growl and snap at Trent and then Trenton was crying. I kind of scared me because we have some relatives and friends that have been bitten pretty bad by dogs. He got a good scratch and cut on his jaw. He was actually really lucky it wasn't worse. So we will see if he learned his lesson.

Photo Shoot

I wanted to take some pictures after church today. They aren't the best but they will work.

Big brother and little sister

Trenton is such a good big brother to little Emma. I love to see him looking out for both of his sisters. We were getting ready to go into Savers. I have been finding some awesome deals at the good ol second hand stores. I think of it as finding treasures that I can make into really cool treasures. Trenton is always wanting a new pair of black cowboy boots and every time we go treasure shopping we find a pair for under $5.00. What a steal!

New Sheriff in Town!

This is the new sheriff in town(the Myers' household). He looks pretty tough doesn't he? This is his Halloween costume. He just wanted to try it out for the day.

Build a Bear Day for Taiylor

Taiylor got to go to Build a Bear today for a friend's birthday. Her Uncle Spencer took her to the mall in his big four door, which the kids think is totally awesome. She brought home an adorable puppy that she named Precious. I am glad she got to have such a fun day. She is such a good friend. She asked me today if I thought she was going to be a good mom. I said, "You are going to be wonderful!" I hope I am a good example to her. She is such a cautious, thoughtful girl.

Missing you!

I am sitting here very lonely tonight. It is Friday night and I have no where to go. My sweet husband is hunting with my brother. Don't get me wrong I am very glad he is able to go. He loves to be in the mountains. I just miss him. I don't realize how much I do until he is gone for a few days. I just like his company.

I have been reading various blogs and I have realized I don't capture enough of my childrens funny, sad, mad moments. I need to slow down and enjoy where I am at today. Life goes by too quickly and if I don't stop and take a break I am going to miss my childrens childhood. One day I am going to miss all of the messes all over the house (marker on the wall, pee on the toilet and floor, toys everywhere).

I saw my friends sweet baby boy today and it made me think maybe I do need another little one in the house. Who knows, I guess time will tell.

I am going to try harder to just sit down and play with my sweet children. That is the highlight of their day. I can do it. My goal is to enjoy lifes little moments. Housework and yardwork can wait another day!

New Haircut

Well, I was sick of my hair one day and decided to chop it off. Everyone has been bugging me to see it, so here it is. I don't know if it was a good or bad decision. But the good thing is, hair grows. Have a great day.
Before

Family time

Today we had an easy going Saturday which was kind of nice for a change. Taiylor and I have been redoing her room and she got bunkbeds so we put those together and got her room all situated. I will post pictures later. It turned out really cute. My washing machine died this week so we are in the process of trying to buy a new one. I haven't done laundry in almost a week. It has been nice but when my new washer gets here it is going to have to do overtime.

Jared and the kids and I went out to the farm this evening to check on things. I love it when we are all together. I never imagined that I would live on a farm, especially a dairy, but it is such a good family life. So good for the kids. Trent fed all the calves grain by himself and Taiylor helped her dad throw straw in the calf hutches while Emma and I drove the loader with the straw. It was so funny, those little calves were so excited to get new bedding. They were jumping all over the place. I was watching Taiylor and I could tell she wanted to impress her daddy by helping him. She is such a good girl. All my kids are. I love it that they can be around their dad all day. It is going to be a sad day when Trenton goes to school and isn't following his dad or Papa around. When the vet comes out and Trent isn't with Jared, they ask where he is because he is usually in tow. Today him and Taiylor were playing and I saw him go outside in his swim trunks, cowboy boots and his coonskin hat. I should have gotten a picture.

Emma has her own baby calf that she runs to every day. It is so cute. She also loves going with her daddy. This is so much easier for me to document our life than a traditional journal. So mainly this blog is for me than anyone else. But I am glad others get to share in our life also.

Bubbles

So, I decided I would try harder to document a little bit about Trenton's mischief. The other day I hear Taiylor say,"Oh, no this is bad!" So, I went upstairs to Trent's room, of course, and found that he had dumped half of his soap bottle into his sink and put the plug in. His sink was overflowing with bubbles onto the floor. He had his bubble wand and looked like he was about to have a good time. A friend of mine asked me if I got really mad at him and I told her I didn't. I actually had to keep from laughing. Trent is just a very imaginative, mischievious boy. I have found that I have to pick my battles. We talked about the bubbles and he now knows what will happen when he plugs up his sick with water and bubbles.

Work in Progress

I decided to take some phots of Jared's work on the farm. Right now he is building a maternity shed, which will be so nice for him and the cows! We also got a new loader that the kids think is pretty awesome! Jared has done so many improvements since we have been back on the farm. He really loves what he does.
