Worms!!!!

Have not posted for a long time..... maybe my TITLE caught your attention.....NO I dont have worms or the swine flu..... its just Kades annual pumpkin contest at school.

3rd Annual pumpkin decorating contest!!!

Kade is now in the 2nd grade! This is our third Halloween and third pumpkin!!! He decided to smash up cookies for the dirt, and poke holes in the pumpkin and put worms coming out all over the place. We have won every year so...... we had too hold up to our previous year.

Let me try this again.........

I posted these pictures a few weeks back, however they were taken with my phone and uploaded really small so here we go again the pictures from our Roberts family reunion.

Sarah and I had corn on the cob and it shows.....


This was the cool whip and m&m challenge. There were 15 m&m's on the plate then Linda (my mom) covered them with cool whip and you had to use nothing but your mouth to retrieve them. Also a fish was the prize. Dal won the older group and Brynnli won the younger group. Kade didnt try as hard he had already won his fish and wanted Brynnli to also win a fish. She did by one m&m.






This is Kade getting ice cubes out of a pool with his feet and trying to get as many as he can into his bucket.... this was too win a fish. Well lets just say Kade was determined and was not going to pass up an animal or pet of any sort. HE WON!!!! It was so funny. I even played it and I won too.

2nd Grade!!!

Well, were back to our 6:30am wake up time. Kade was so excited for school to start today. He has lots of kids in his class from last year that he knows and excited to meet his new teacher. He learned the "FIRE POWER" move while spending time with my cross country team at high altitude camp. He was so funny this morning I was just taking pictures and he says "Mom, Firepower..... woot woot." So funny he didnt understand why I started laughing. He is such a good kid, I told him to respect his teacher and he said, "oh mom I always am, I only back talk you." Oh Thanks KADE!!!!

Running Camp at Joes Valley

Kade and Dal went on the run with us Friday afternoon to the CCC trail. These are the pictures from on the trail overlooking Joes Valley.
After the kids finished the run we cliff jumped off this rock and Dal was determined to do it. He is a good swimmer, he looks small in the picture but that is him. The team had a blast jumping as well.
Kade enjoyed hanging out with Grandpa and Dal fishing and burning stuff in the fire. My athletes taught him tons of "new" tricks to do in the fire. Lets just say Kade was just playing monkey see monkey do.

Swimming at Helper Pool.....

Kade, Jack, Aiden and Cindi swimming at Helper Pool. It was a little chilly but they still had fun. Aiden had fun on the steps, wanted nothing to do with the yellow tube to float around in. That night Kade and I went to the movie in the park with the Brackens and watched Kung fu panda.

Were back with lots to update about...........

We weren't far just out of touch.... (no computer) I was actually getting used to it and didnt mind it until I needed word perfect to type something or well pretty much I missed it but learned to live without it. Kade and I will be catching you all up and I have opened my blog up so I can get in touch with everyone again and obtain emails that I have lost in the computer fiasco....
