HaPPy HaLLowEEn 2009!

Karson and I being silly!

Karson and Kage where Cowboy's and Indian's this year. Karson wanted to shoot the cowboy (like indians do in the movies he watches with Chance) Kage didn't like that idea very much.

Kage posing he doesn't like me to take his picture so this was a lucky one to get.

Karson on the other hand is a ham...I bet we took 20 pictures with different poses.

This is Karson's "mean warrior" face

American Fork Canyon - Deer Hunt 2009

Chance and I left the boys with Grandma Austin and took to 4-wheeler up AF Canyon on the last weekend of the deer hunt to see what we could see. This picture is at the top at Tngy's Grave...It looks as cold as it was...brrrrr....Nice outfit, but it helped!!!!

It was nice to get away with just Chance and see some pretty amazing country. All we seen were does, fawns, and a baby moose.

Better luck next year ;o)

Chance's Wyoming Hunt

Wyoming Deer Hunt 2009! Chance was lucky this year and drew a Wyoming Deer Tag...He was pretty excited to bring it to show the boys. And of course they had to have their picture taken with Daddy's deer.














Kage - 29 Months



















Karson - Just turned 5 years old!!!



























Don't ask...Yes this is what it looks like...They all got up there a day early and this it what they did with their spare time!!!!! With Sling Shots!!!! Boys will be boys.......

Jumpin Jacks!

Karson was invited to his friend Taylor Tut's B-day party last weekend at Jumpin Jacks in West Jordan. Kage got to come too....We all had a good time...Thanks Allie and Tut for inviting us.

Soccer Time

Karson wanted to play soccer this year so here we are playing soccer. He has some great coaches that are very patient with the kids...Karson is #16, they won this game 10 - 0...Pretty good for 4 and 5 year olds.

Banana Cinnamon Chip Cake!

I keep telling Tia how yummy this Banana Cinnamon Chip Cake is, and telling her I will email her the recipe well I never got around to getting it to her so I thought I would just post it...Enjoy ;o)

Ingredients:

• 3 very ripe bananas
• 2 Large eggs
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 1 cup chocolate chips

For topping:

• 3 Tbsp. sugar
• 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, Butter or spray 8-inch square pan.

In mixing bowl, mash the bananas, add the eggs, and mix well. Add the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and vanilla. Add 3/4 of the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the pan and set aside.

In a small bowl, stir together the topping ingredients. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the batter in the pan, and top with the remaining chocolate chips.

Bake 35-40 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted into the center comes out clean. YUMMY!!!!

No More Training Wheels!

Karson decided he wanted to try to ride his bike with out the training wheels so Chance took them off and sure enough he was ready. He did so good, Chance did a great job teaching him how to balance and get his feet started. I am so proud of Karson, he is growing up so fast. He's a 4 year old that thinks he's 12...
