Staheli Farm







The kids and I spent a few hours at Staheli Farm yeasterday. They got to see many animals, go in a corn maze, ride a train. And so much more. One of there most favorites was going down the slide into a big pile of corn. Madi enjoyed finding all of the pumpkin seeds. Kinzee really liked the cows. But she did say that they were really stinky.
We also got to spend time with our cousins and friends there too.
The nice thing for mom was by the time we left everyone was so tired. To bad the fell asleep in the car and didn't wait til we got home.

Ash Spends a few hrs in hospital


Well as luck would have it Trent, Coree, Ashlee and Sara all ended up with the flu last week. Ashlee was the first to get it. She was also the first to go to the ER. She got dehydrated and go get help. She was freezing and trying to stay warm. (As you can see in the picture). Sara also ended up there. Sara even got an IV. She wasn't real happy about it as you can imagine. But we are all over it now.

The Decker's

The Decker have been doing great. We went to Disneyland this past may. We all had a great time. It is a place that the kids really enjoy. We had the privilege of having Aunt Joyce come down and spend some time with us. The girls loved hearing her stories singing song coloring, and many other this with her. While Joyce was down we discovered that the flood in the master bathroom we had, had a week ago (don't know what the 2 year old put down the toilet) had gone into the master closet. So while Joyce entertained the kids mom and dad tore out carpet and cleaned up the closet. 2 days later the air conditioner leaked through the kitchen celling. So much to our surprise we spent more time with Joyce at the house then doing anything else. But boy were Trent and Coree glad she was there to help with the kids. We love you Joyce.
We would love to hear from everyone. Please let us know how you are doing.

Trent

Trent continues to work. He is an owner/partner in a pharmacy fill in agency. So if he's not working for Harmon's you can bet he is probably working for the business. He enjoys being a dad and loves to spend time with his 4 girls. He does feel a little out numbered, but knows that he can't change that. He does love have daddy's little girls though. Trent was happy to get to baptize his oldest daughter in July. Trent enjoys shooting, sleeping (which he doesn't get to do much) but most of all spending time with his family. Sorry no picture of Trent. Maybe soon.

Coree

Coree is a busy mom. The word stay at home does not apply to her at all. She also works a business called Tastefully Simple. Selling gourmet food that tastes great and is easy to make. This is her out. She gets to socialize as well as make a little bit of money. Coree and Trent will be going to Alexandria Minn. in August for National Conference. There is a link to her page on the blog. Coree also enjoys cooking and spending time with others. Sorry no picture of her.

Mckinzee

Mckinzee is 2. For anyone who has had a 2 year old that says a lot. She is also full of energy. She enjoys trying to keep up with her big sister. She knows that she is just as big as they are. She has started potty training. She will do this on her terms, and her terms only. So mom is just waiting until she wants to be consistent. She loves running around with just a diaper on in the heat. To her clothes are an optional thing. She loves swimming at her Nana's house. She swears that her and mom are still connected. (We are trying to convince her that were not.) She loves talking to everyone.

Madison

Madison is now 4. Madison is full of energy. She enjoys getting into everything. She is constantly on the go. She is the cute blue eyed blond that can do no wrong in most peoples eyes. (Until they get to know her). She enjoys gymnastics. She has the arm strength that most wish they could have. She has taken the summer off but will be starting again in august. She will be going to her 2nd year of preschool at my preschool adventures. Where they just adore her. She has learned quite a bit and continues to amaze us. She is the child with no fear. She jumped into the swimming pool with no life jacket, and ended up having my friend Rebecca jump in after her. Clothes and all. (Way to go Rebecca).
