Amazing another post so soon!

I can't believe it myself. Some how I have no kids bugging me for a few minutes. Ellsie and Josh are both asleep and Jaxon, Gatlin and Annie are outside playing in the sprinklers.
The house it so quite I think I may have to scream just to feel normal, It never stops anymore. The noise starts at 7:20am and keeps going until I leave for work at 7:30pm. Sometimes I know this sounds bad but it's nice to go to work and leave the utter confusion and mayhem behind for poor Jed to deal with.
So now with this blessed quite moment I will try and update you on everything so I can feel like I'm actually not behind on something. Because as I type the laundry is piling up again, I'm still scrapbooking 2004, and their are so many other things I'm behind on I can't even start.... So here's an update on our life as crazy as it is, I wouldn't trade it for anything......
OK maybe sitting by the beach in Hawaii!
My family enjoyed a great camping trip in the Uintah's mountains. I love the great outdoors.
My Little Josh loving the camping trip.


Jaxon was so dirty this year camping...
he loved it mom wasn't washing his face all the time.


Josh at 2 months old he is already a little ham!







As most of you know we have been working on a new sprinkler system in the front yard. With my fathers help we have had some huge ditches. One day in June when it was raining so hard we soon realized we created a small swimming pool in our front yard. Jaxon, Ellsie and Lilly thought it was great fun!











My Little Tiny ELLSIE.....
She is so crazy and such a girl. I'm so used to Jax who is just so
mild mannered. Ellsie she knows what she wants and
yells until she gets it.







I have been blessed with three cute cute kids! They are so much fun!



Josh 2mths old and getting SOOO big!

My two best boys!



Jaxon at his preschool graduation! He said he wants to grow up to be a doctor so he can make lots of money!




Well that's about all I have time for, the kids are coming in and getting dressed. I knew the silence wouldn't last long. So far summer has been fun with a trip to the zoo, camping, swimming at my moms and an up coming trip to Sunvalley Idaho with the Nelson crew. I guess I better enjoy it all before I know it, snow will be on the ground. Jaxon is already telling me what he wants for Christmas. The very thought makes me want to throw up!

Jumpin Jacks!

We thought we would take Jaxon and Ellsie to Jumpin Jacks before I had the baby. We had a great time, Jed said it was one of the best work outs he's had. Jaxon Flying down the slide
Ellsie fell asleep on the way over, so we had to wake her up and she was not very happy. But once Jed took her down a couple of slides she was hooked.

Jed going head first.... crazy guy!


Jaxon and Jed taking a much needed rest.

Christmas in Febuary!

My parents gave us an all paid trip (including watching of all the grand kids) to Lava Hot Springs Idaho for Christmas. We left on Friday and headed out for the hot pools, which I love. We have done this trip a couple of times now in the winter and it has always been something I look forward to. We took up two trailers and we camp out in the cold weather. Yes I know this sounds crazy but it's part of the fun. This year was the warmest, which made for very muddy feet, but we still had a great time. We got up there around 5:00 on Friday and went right for the pools. It has to be the best feeling, it's freezing outside and so so so warm in the water. After a couple of hours of sitting we all headed back to the camp and enjoyed some yummy pronto taco soup and played games. In the morning we made one more trip to the pools and then headed on home. We always like to stop at Maddox steak house on the way there or home this time we stop on the way home and enjoyed some yummy BEEF! It was all in all a great little getaway. It made me miss my kids and I was glad to get back home. If your every trying to find a winter vacation that is the best place. It's great for kids in the summer then they can enjoy the water park.

A glimpse of warm weather!

I was bringing Jaxon and Gatlin home from preschool last week, and it was so nice outside we had to enjoy it! The Kids ran up up down the driveway for at least an hour. I finally had to drag them inside for some much needed lunch. I love being able to get outside, the kids have such a great time!
