Fun Photo Shoot

Well it has been 3 yrs. since I had the kids' pictures taken by Terri French.  They were such good pictures that I guess I didn't think they needed to be changed.  But this weekend I decided to get it done and to do it myself since our schedule is always so hectic. I took over 200 pictures and this is what I have narrowed it down to.  Leave a post and give me your opinion, I love feed back! 

Now all I need is a family picture, that will be a miracle to gather everyone and have Jeremy home!

How could I forget

I can't believe I forgot to post about our other nephew that was born this summer! I was scrolling through my pictures and sure enough there is a picture of Archer that I didn't put on here. So here is a couple photos of Archer who was born on Aug. 17. The proud parents are Natalie & Dustin. (Jeremy's baby sister)

Picture overload

If I would only sit down for a few minutes and download a couple of pictures it probably wouldn't take very long, but instead I think to myself, that will take too long I'll do it later. Here I sit trying to catch up and it is probably taking me twice as long. Here are a few fun pictures.

We have church at 1:00 which gives the kids plenty of time to burn.
Here they are pulling Kennedi in the laudry basket
Just sitting back hoping they don't wreck

Here are a few pictures of Kennedi doing new big things:

So Much To Do, So Little TIME!!

So I have had a crazy summer: new baby, family fun days, work days, and so much more I could not tell all. So to fit it all in here are alot of pictures with captions!!

I am a horrible mother; I put pictures on of Carson, Kade, and Quinton for their birthdays and Mckenna's and Colton's just slipped by and I didn't even realize that I hadn't put anything on. I love them just as much as the others, their birthday just fall at a very busy time.

Mckenna turned 12 on Aug. 26 We made a bee hive because she is now a
Beehive in Young Women's!
Wow time flies, it seems she was just my little baby girl!
Teenage years here we come!!!

First day of school was Sept. 1
Quinton is in 8th grade and at the Junior High

Colton is in Kindergarten

Kade is in the 4th grade
He is a good big brother who plays football with Colton
when they get to school

Mckenna is 12 and in the 7th grade

On September 3 we had the 2nd annual Jerry Hall Family Reunion where we camp out in the back yard at Grandma's and play game and have alot of fun!!

Here is a picture of the kids that made t-shirts with potatoes as stampsMargaret wanted a picture of everyones feet! I still need to figure out how to
stitch them together so that they make one big picture,
I don't think this is what she really had in mind but we did the best I know how!

Mckenna and Kade had to get an oreo cookie from their forehead to their mouth
without using their hands!

Here are a few cute pictures of Kennedi

She doesn't get much attention at our house!

Fun at the Zoo

First of all I forgot to include this picture with the last post so here it is. A four generation picture Jerry(Jeremy's dad), Kennedi, Grandpa Gordon, (Jerry's dad)and Jeremy. We went to the zoo on Tuesday, June 15 with my sister and her kids and all the Hall cousins. I think all together we had 14 kids, 9 that were 5 and under, It was CRAZY FUN!! In this picture is Colton and Carson(not on the tiger) and on the tiger we have Owen, Carter, Nova, and Maddie
Carson, Derek, Dylan and Colton.
I love this picture of Nova with Grandma Hall, they both look so happy!
Posing with the lion are Maddie, Carter, Carson, and Dylan.

What a Crazy Life

Wow! School is out, new baby, family reunion, strep throat, Quinton's birthday, baby blessing, and cancer! These are the things that make my life crazy, fun, and never a dull moment. Kennedi is doing great and growing like a weed! She is a great sleeper and loves to be held (lots of brothers and a sister who take care of that)We had a Gordon Hall family reunion that aunt Marilyn put together that was sooo... much fun, it was a cowboy/rodeo theme and all the kids loved dressing up! We were going to bless Kennedi on the 6th of June but I came down with strep throat and was sooo... sick, so we postponed until this last week the 13th. What a great family we have that are so supportive. I love getting together with family! Quinton turned 13 and so now I'm offically a mother of a teenager! He is a good kid and a hard worker who loves to play the trombone. We love him and we're glad he is a part of our family. And my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer on the 4th of June. She is only 32 and has a young family to take care of. She is handling the news fairly well, she is a strong person and I know she will make it through! She will have to do radiation and will stay with my mom and have it here in Idaho, so that means cousins all summer long!! It will be intersting with all kids around all summer but I want to help where I can! Well anyway here are a few pictures of the reunion and Kennedi's blessing. sorry they aren't in order. ENJOY!
