Christmas Tree Hunting!!!!

On Saturday we went hunting for a Christmas tree! This I thought was

the perfect tree that Lyndon spotted!In this picture

we had already cut down the tree. Lyndon was just holding it up!

Here is a picture of Grandpa Hobson cutting down our tree! As

you can tell, we didn't exactly cut it down at the bottom. Now it can continue to grow and become a mature tree again! Grandpa

was excited about getting a tree with us. If any of you know my dad, you know

that it takes a lot to get him excited.
When we were kids he always took us Christmas tree hunting with

my Grandma Hobson and all our cousins. I think that is why Grandpa had so much fun!

This picture we took when we found our tree! We hadn't exactly tracked down grandpa yet. We left the tracking up to Braxton. We found our tree, made note of it's location, then let Braxton track Grandpa. He had fun leading the way!I am sure you can tell which picture was taken by me. Just kidding! Both pictures are great! We had lots of fun!
Mom and Presslee! Does anyone see a resemblance?

Grandma's Tub!!!!!

Mikaelyn 5 months. This is a picture I took over Thanksgiving of the

baby in Grandma's tub. We always keep a special

record of the grand kids in her tub. They used to have this

pink sunken tub. We loved it. They recently remodeled and put in a regular

white tub. This is still such a great picture. What a happy baby!!!

Jr. Game Day

On Thanksgiving day after dinner, Kort and Cooper played

a little 2 against 1 with Braxton. They had so much fun!

A little roughness after the play here it looks like!
I think this one was for sure incomplete. Nearly caught for a

touchdown according to Braxton!

Braxton carefully trying to two had touch without pushing. That is what they were supposed to be doing anyway!

Bleeding Blue!!!!

Some more out of order re-cap. We want to continue highlighting our favorite parts of the year before we move forward! Enjoy! Football season #1 August-October 2007

The first tackle football game of his life. Braxton was so thrilled to be playing on the "Smurf Turf" at Boise State. He played his heart out. You can always tell which kid he is on the field. He never takes off his CTR bracelet. In most the pics you can see it on his right wrist.

Lyndon was able to coach Braxton's team throughout the season. He was a little torn about coaching his son's team. Trust me, Braxton received no special treatment. He sure did improve his football skills though. You can tell such a difference between these pics and the last game they played. He loves Football!!!!! We all loved watching him play too!

Little Angels!!!!!!!!!!

Now if this isn't the face of an angel, I don't know what is! My friend Brielle and I traded kids the other day to enjoy the salon for a couple hours. she took this sweet picture of baby Mikaelyn!















Preslee went to a Cinderella play at the high
school in McCall the other day. She had a great
time with her favorite friend Kamden and Kamden's sister Aspen.


Little buddies! Same day of the Cinderella play!

What a cute picture!

Here is another great pic of the boys together. This was in May before we started many shoots. We took them up the mountain quite often. They helped their dad with his bear bate quite a bit. They always took their bows when they went out.














This picture I took as they were headed up on their hike to bate their dad's bear. They loved hiking in with him. They always told me it was an easy hike. May 2007

Here are a few more re-caps for the last several months. Trying to catch this blog up to current. Each summer from May thru July we travel to many archery shoots. If any of you know Lyndon, you know he is passionate about archery. To say the least!!!! How blessed is he to have 3 kids that love the opportunity to do this with him. They all happen to be pretty dang good at it as well. Here he is with Preslee. She won a 2nd place trophy this year in a 3 year old long shoot. She was way excited. She really loves here dad!!















Here is a great picture of Braxton in a long shoot competition in May! In his age class there are many more competitors than any other age group. He is really easy going and just loves doing it. This all comes quite naturally to him!
















Here is another one of the boys together. Cooper is an absolute dead eye! He loves shooting his bow! His personality is just like his dad's. Whatever interests him becomes quite a priority! Cooper scored in the top 3 at several different shoots this summer!

WINTER!!!!!

My friend Brielle cam over today to get me rolling on this whole blog thing. While we were Blogging, McCall received its first snow!! The kids were so excited. They ran outside without telling us not fully equipped! Left to right: Preslee, Kamden, Cooper!!!
















Braxton, Cooper, and Preslee played out in the snow the minute they were all home from school! They have been looking forward to winter all summer and fall!

















Preslee came in after a short ride to the nearest willow! Fun Fun fun!
