i'm going to love blogging!

I'm currently working on a 5 generation heritage book for my kids. in the book I've tried to get as much info about their ancestor's that i possibly can. i am struggling to find histories on many of the ancestors. as a descendant i am frustrated by the fact that i will never know certain things about the people before me. i guess i have never thought about the people after me and if they would care about my hobbies, trials, likes, and dislikes, but as a descendant that is what i love learning most about, {the things the pictures can't tell you}! So as my new years res i am going to try and write down as much as i can about our family. i also recently was introduced to digital and photoshop. I AM OBSESSED! this blogging is going to be a fun way for me to keep record of my family and play with photos! That being said here is what's been going on in our family.

Casey just turned 28 on April 29. He owns a electrical business with his brother Chris. They have been keeping busy which has been a blessing considering the economy. He loves to cook and has been on a Chinese kick lately. He loves working in the yard. All he wanted for his birthday was bushes for our front yard. we will hopefully be getting the bark soon. My mom said she thinks he has a scotts fertilizer addiction. We love to watch PBR together and recently went to watch them in Nampa, ID. We went with our friends Eric and Jen and had a great time. I will post pictures as soon as i get some from Jen. (i forgot my camera battery on the charger at home)

Cael is three years old. yeah i said it 3! I'm finding that 3 is a lot harder than 2. I'm hoping that soon he will be the sweet 2 year old that he use to be.j/k He can be so sweet and helpful one minute and the next be throwing a fit and sitting in time-out! he is coming to understand the rules of the house and I'm finding that if you give him an inch he will take 3 miles! Parenting is a full time job and if at any minute I give in, he knows it and takes full advantage. He has been such a good big brother and i think he has finally realized that he's not going to have all the attention all the time. His favorite sentence right now is "that would be terrible". He lOVES any kind of equipment. he knows all their names and what they do. he has a good memory and will talk about things that happened months ago especially when it comes to trucks and tractors. the farm is one of his favorite places to go and loves spending time with the guys.

Kensie has been such a little sweetheart. She is so easy going and rarely makes a fuss. We recently went 4-wheeling at San Rafael and she rode the whole time. On our second ride she spent a whole 9 hours in my coat on the bike and only fussed about the last 10 min of the ride. She has been such a blessing to our family and we enjoy her every minute. She can now hold her bottle, sit up(for a minute), giggles, jabbers and has to reach for everything. She has discovered eating and is constantly grabbing your plate.
Well I'm now going to go clean my bathrooms (what casey thinks i'm doing right now).
