FOR SALE!!!

After much thought and consideration, we have decided to SELL!! We are doing it in order to generate work, enlarge our business portfolio, and as a method of investment.
Here are links to the details. http://www.homesbyowner.com/twin_falls/PhotoFlyerGenerateHTML.asp?Home_Id=13674&User_Id=191966&Metro_Id=202&Template_Id=3&MediaMode=Preview

Box boys!!

Have you ever bought your kids something and they fell in love with the box instead???? We sure have seen that before, however that isn't the case here, but these boys love to play with boxes. They have box forts that they are proud of too. Here, they have made themselves into special packages for mom!! What great packages for me to have delivered.

Preschool Projects!!

Preschool has been really fun for Ian, he really loves going. He loves his teacher, and his classmates, it is always fun for him to see some kids from his class out in public, he gets so excited about it. Last month they got to go on a field trip to the pumpkin patch and he was so excited when he brought home the permission slip that he told us exactly what the note was for. So far, he has learned up to the letter "H" and does pretty good with them. It has also been fun for me to be able to make some fun treats to take for school when it is Ian's turn to take treats.

Harvest/Halloween

It is such a fun season. Canning for the first time, going to the pumpkin patch, going to the straw maze, Halloween parties, and costumes.

Canned some salsa verde, green tomato rasberry jam, and red salsa. Also from our first garden we got to freeze tons of corn. I would have to say it was a successful year with our first time.

You can't go a year without going to the pumpkin patch even though you grow some of your own pumpkins.

The kid maze was a real hit with the boys!


Thanks Grandma Koyle for finding the costumes, the boys were so proud to show off their muscles.

We were known as "D&M Destroyers" David's Name tag read "Dangerous D" and I was "Maniac Mike" It was pretty fun except for the fact that David wanted to carry his bowling bag everywhere that day.

Potty Trained

It has been much harder to get Greyson to figure it out than it was for Ian. We didn't do things any different with the two, but we have discovered that Greyson is not as ambitious or motivated as Ian was. It has been about a three month or more journey with Greyson and Ian picked it up in a week. It is fun, however, to have different personalities with these boys.

Success is sweet!!!




Even though it was an exhausting road.

First Day of Pre-School!!

Our Ian is now old enough to start school. He could have gone to kindergarten this year but we decided that it would be better for him if he went next year. He was so excited to start yesterday that he was up a few times in the night talking to us about going. He really liked his teacher, Miss Andrea, and knows only one other boy in the class.

I got this backpack last year in Seattle and Ian was excited that he finally got to use it. He wanted to fill it up with stuff to take with him like: pictures he colored, a pencil he got from church, and a water bottle in case he was thirsty. Me being the mean mom didn't let him though.


Ian wasted no time in making himself right at home. He was so over taken by all the toys there were to play with that I was surprised to actually get a kiss goodbye.

An outing at Story Book Park!!

So on Monday we got to go to Story Book Park for our friends little girls birthday party and I think the boys thought they had died and gone to heaven. I don't think that we have ever been there with the boys. They wanted to go and play instead of participate at the party. We stayed there awhile longer after the party was done to let the boys take it all in. It is such a cool place to let your kids play at. We will definitely have to take them back.
