HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

WE HOPE EVERYONE HAS A HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Chase's First Birthday!

Chase had his first birthday last week. I can't believe it has been a year since he joined our family. He is so cute and such a blessing in our home. He doesn't walk yet and really doesn't show much interest in it. He will walk holding your hands but as soon as you let go he falls to the ground he doesn't even try to stand on his own. He has eight teeth, which is crazy because at 10 1/2 months he had only two teeth. He has gotten six more in the last month and a half, and boy could we tell. He has been so sad and wants to be held all the time. A week before his birthday he got a sore in his mouth and by the end of the week it developed into a mouth full of sores. He wouldn't eat anything and has been very unhappy this past week. He didn't feel good on his birthday and wouldn't even taste his cake. He did enjoy digging through it though! I felt so bad for him, not a fun way to spend your first birthday. I took him to the Dr. on Monday and got him some medicine and he is looking and acting a lot better. We had a fun little party for his birthday, both my parents and Chads parents came from Wyoming. He got some fun things and seemed to enjoy all the attention. Happy Birthday Buddy!! We love you so much!

Chase checking out his birthday cake. He wouldn't taste it because his mouth hurt but enjoyed playing in it.

Chase playing with all the new toys. Thanks everyone for all the fun things!!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to Stahli Farm for family night last week. This has kind of turned into a tradition since we have had kids. They have such fun things to do their, like horse riding, corn maze, pumpkin patch, play ground, and petting zoo. Caden rode a horse but non of my pictures turned out.


This is the boys in the pumpkin patch picking out a pumpkin!

Caden as a witch SPOOKY!!

The boys in the petting zoo both Caden and Chase loved watching the animals.

Where does time go?

It has been a while since my last post so I thought I better do a update before I really get behind. We haven't been up to much Chad is working like crazy getting the business going. I am trying to keep up with the boys and be the shop secretary when I have a chance. Life has defiantly gotten more crazy and there never seems to be enough time in the day. We have been blessed no doubt and things are going well. Here are some funny pictures that I have been meaning to post.



Chad and Caden went hunting last week here in St. George and got a deer the last day of the hunt. Caden was so excited and had lots of questions when Chad was skinning and cutting the deer up. I still wonder what he thought about the whole thing. He has told everyone (including his Dr. , the clerk at Lin's and all his friends) that his dad shot a deer. So I think he liked it!

This is Chase dressed up in Caden's pirate costume.

I was trying to get a picture of Chases two bottom teeth. After several attempts and no success Caden went over and tried pulling Chases lip down, still no teeth but a pretty funny picture!!

CABINETS ANYONE?

It is official Stonebrook Cabinets have opened the doors! For all of you who don't know what I am talking about Chad has worked at a Cabinet shop here in Southern Utah for the past five years and loved every minute of it. They started having financial problems and had to shrink their shop to a small shop of family so that left Chad and a lot of other employees looking for new jobs. Chad and his dad decided to go partners and open a cabinet shop here in southern Utah. They decided to do this back in July and Chad has been working with one of his friends non stop to make it happen. Chad and two of his friends from the previous shop are working there. They finally got all the licenses and are official, able to open and start building this week. So far they have had a great response from people and builders and have contracts for several jobs. We feel so blessed that things have worked out as well as they have since the economy has been so crazy. We hope that things will continue to do well and business will only get better. Thank you to all who have helped get this shop put together! It has taken a lot of time and work and we appreciate all those who have helped we couldn't have done it without you.

Chase's first hair cut!

Chase is 10 months old and has crazy hair. His hair is fine, he has spots that are longer than others and it stand up all the time. I have had enough of this crazy hair and decided to give him a hair cut this morning. It did not take much and it looks tons better. No more hair hanging over his ears. I forgot to take a before picture but this was during the hair cut. Chase was so good and just ate his Cheerios. Caden took these pictures, I would have to say not to bad for a three year old!
