Winter Fun

Here we have Taylor, Cameron, and Mason out playing in the snow. Mason didn't last long. Taylor was next to come inside and hours later Cameron come home to eat dinner. I am so glad it February. January was so long and so cold. It's only been three days into February but each of these days has been above zero. Which does make a huge difference in our life.

It is so very cold here but if the tempature is above 0 degrees I'll let Cameron stay out a while. Here he is with his friends Riley and Samuel. Cameron is on the right end. His cheeks have been red since November, no lie.

Here is my Cameron helping in the kitchen. He loves to help way more then you would expect for a five year old. Here he is kneading the dough for pizzas.

Basketball Season

Taylor really loves playing basketball. He just stands down by the basket and yells "I'm open I'm open." They through it to him every time.

16. If you actually understand these jokes and forward them to all your friends, you live in Utah.

Chicken Pocks

Last night Taylor and Cameron gave themselves "chicken pocks" with a red Sharpie permanent marker. They thought they were soooo funny. Later in the tub they found out what makes permanent markers so great! Mason is crying because he wants "chicken pocks" too and I wouldn't give him any.


I think it's funny too.

joke of the day from Aaron

A recent study found the average American golfer walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found American golfers drink, on average, 22 gallons of beer a year.

That means, American golfers get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Let's see the Japanese beat that!

I had no idea

I have been called to be a Webelos scout leader. I new the calling was coming, since I have three boys. I was exited to learn something new, until I got my scout book. What the crap! I had to take a picture and blog it. I had no idea the scouting program is so crazy big. I am holding the hand book the scouts get. That book I understand, but why do I need a 2 and 1/2 inch 8X11 inch binder of information???????????? I am no longer exited. My biggest question is why doesn't the girls of the church get a equal program.

I MISS SUMMER

Here is a cool picture we took on the way to the grocery store in Evanston. I see herds of Elk every time. I took it on Jan 9th, 2008
I thought I would post a picture of all the snow we have. Here is a picture right outside by back door. I took it today Jan 14th, 2008

Then I thought I would give you a picture to compare it to.

How cute is that?
I've decided I hate winter and I miss summer. Here are more of my favorite 2007 summer pictures.

Mason at a park.

Cameron at a park, on a swing.

This is Mason and his friend Mitchel. They are in our sandbox in our back yard. Mason played in that sandbox for hours and hours everyday all summer long.

This was our first Miskin Reunion, my mom's side of the family.

Jentry Miskin took us all up repeling. I have never gone before. I have had the chance but I was pregnant every time. So this time I got to go and it was so much fun. A big thanks goes out to Jentry for providing all his equipment and time. Mom mom even went. She is my hero.
We went to Sea World in San Diego, California. This is Taylor, Zach, and Cameron just after a very wet ride. It was their first adult roller coaster. They had so much fun.




Here we are camping and swimming at the first Taylor Reunion. Josh used the normal 6 roles of film that weekend. We all had a lot of fun. I can't wait until next summer.

A little of Christmas

The Hull Christmas Holiday started with a fantastic performance by all three Hull children. Taylor and Cameron were heavenly angles. Mason was a child having bed time dreams. The crowd was on their feet with exitement.

The best adult gift given out that day was a jewlry box Josh has been carving ever since he met Melissa. A year later he gave it to her for Christmas. She loved it and gave Josh a big kiss for it. Yes we all got to be a part of that kiss.

Chad and Jessica

Rachel came up on Christmas day.

We spend time with Aaron's side of the family and my side of the family. It was a 10 day Christmas vacation.

We had a lot of fun playing in the snow. Grandpa Richard bought a four wheeler and pulled us around on sleds.

Taylor and his cousin Zachary always have a ton of fun together. Here they are waving good bye as Grandpa pulls them away.


Eric with the nephews movie.

Thanksgiving Tree Cutting Weekend

Grandma B pulled Taylor around for like a 1/2 hour. I think they both loved it.

We all had a lot of fun.

Rachel's Baby Shower

Rachel and Aaron's baby shower turned out great. Everyone had a lot of fun. Mostly laughing about all the advise they were writing down for her.

THANK YOU Thanks everybody for the love, gifts, and support.

For those that missed the shower her is the baby quilt I had a lot of fun making for her. Rachel also went home with alphabet blocks everyone painted for her.


Love you all.
