Fun Things We Do

Remember this picture from last year when Jeremy and the boys got the bright idea to ski behind the snowmachine? This is Kade when they were having a blast on the skiis.

This year Quinton and Kade have been able to drive the snowmachines in the backyard/field by themselves and have had alot of fun. Well last weekend they got the skiis out again and were pulling each other. Needless to say this is how I spent last weekend.

Yep, he fell and he turned but his skiis didn't. Sad thing is I really thought he just twisted or sprained his ankle. This happened last Saturday Feb. 6 and we went to BYU-I to see the Peking Acrobats and we kept trying to make hime walk on it. Jeremy and Jerry ended up caring him to and from the building. The next morning, Sunday before church I took him to a Community Care and sure enough it was broken. It is a spiral break up the bone, so he can't put any weight on it. With it being winter I don't want to take any chances of him falling right now so I have to drive him to and from school. He is a good sport, has a high tolerance for pain, and is loving all the attention for now! I give him another week before he is just sick of it, to bad he has to do this for 2 months!!

Here are some other pictures of sleding and having fun in the snow, we went with Ty and Amanda on the Butte about a month ago and had a lot of fun sleding.

Mckenna was not about to get cold!

Holiday Update

I going to mostly post pictures of our holiday and the fun we had together as a family. This year all the Hall's were together and boy did we party. I think by the end of the weekend we were allwasted and ready for some sleep. Like I said in the last post that Christmas Eve we told our children about expecting a baby and so Christmas morning was even more fun, they kept asking questions and we had to explain that it was still a secret until we opened gifts with grandma and grandpa.

Santa brought Coaster Cars

The kids love getting dressed up for the Nativiy. This is Carson and Carter!

The whole group, Quinton was Joseph and Nova was Mary. They all had so much fun that they left their costumes on until they got to hot. Carson put on about 3 different ones. Singing Happy Birthday to Jesus.

Then the next day we spent playing at the gym at the church. Dart Tag, Basketball, Volleyball, and riding the Coaster Cars. Even the big kids liked them.

We had family pictures done by Heather B.'s sister (which I will post when I can get them) but we tried on our own to take a picture of the grandkids. We seem to always wait until the last minute and someone is tired and just not into it. I think this picture is as good as it gets with that many kids.

SUPRISE!!!!

Well, the big gift that was opened on Christmas at our house was telling our children and family that we are expecting baby #6! We have kept it a secret a long time and I am glad that the cat is out of the bag. The kids (especially Mckenna) are excited and all of our family members gave us a great reaction to the news. You see we really, or I really thought we were done. Or in other words I wanted to be done, but I couldn't hide the fact any more that somebody was missing. So we put things in the Lord's hands. I was really sick for 17 weeks, started feeling better then got a nasty cold, but things are going good now and I am 22 weeks along. Just wanted to spread the good news and will post pictures of Christmas later. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!!

More Catching Up

Okay, I've gotten a new computer so we'll see if it can download pictures faster and maybe I'll enjoy doing this more. I spend all my time reading everyone else's blogs that I don't have time to do my own. This blog will be mostly pictures, some of our 1st annual Hall Family Reunion, it was alot of fun, my mother-in-law has not seen any pictures so those are for her. Then probably random pictures with some explanations. Hope it's not too boring!

In August we celebrated birthdays, Mckenna Aug.26, Brooklynn Aug. 31, my sister Angela Aug. 30, Derek Sept. 11, Colton Sept. 13. We went bowling and had a really fun time.

Mckenna's 11th birthdayWe went for a horse ride with some good friends and neighbors, Carson was in heaven.

More fun pictures

Quinton was involved in two parade's this summer, Jefferson Stampede, and Menan's famous 4th of July. He loves playing the trombone and is actually pretty good at it. Most of the kids that played in these parades were junior high and high school aged kids and they played high school music. He said it was hard at first but soon caught on and will be forever hooked to playing.

Suzanne came home one weekend in June and we had a pink party just for the girls. It was a lot of fun. Grandma Hall with all her grandchildren, Mckenna and Me.

Kade played baseball again this summer and had a lot of fun. He is a good little hitter!!

Time to Update

Yes, I know shocking that you actually logged in to view my blog and I have put something on here. First of all I will post the pictures from spring that I ment to put on until Summer happened. So hang on this might get long!

Baby Chickens, Baby Kittens, and the Childrens watch'n.

Quinton line dancing for the entire school. And boy can he shake his hips. My video camera isn't digital so you will have to use your imagination and it will probably be close! He had a blast in this class at school.

This was one of my favorite things to do when I was growing up, Branding Cows with my dad and uncles, and now I get to watch my boys enjoy it! They however, do it a bit differently than we did, we always had horses involved and now they have invented things called chutes and that's what they use. Mckenna on the other hand doesn't care too much for the smell and preferred to look on from the fence!
