JUST CHILLIN!




Brooklyn LOVES being outdoors. When we are inside she will grab my fingers to help her walk and she will lead upstairs or down the hall or anyway she can to get to a window or door so that I will take her outside. She sat here for about 45 minutes, just chillin. She was enjoying the warm day we finally had to it's fullest. She loves playing in the bark, rocks and dirt....just like her brother.

T-BALL

Karson's first T-Ball Game! The helmet was huge.
Karson is left handed when he is batting but throws right handed. He hit the ball really well! He didn't enjoy playing in the outfield as much. He sat down on the pitcher's mound and lookd at bugs and played in the dirt. After his first game I was trying to explain to him that when he is in the outfield that he is supposed to try and get the abll after someone hits it, and throw it to a base. So the second game, he would get up to bat, hit the ball, and then try and get the ball before anyone else....it was so funny. You can definately tell he hasn't played the game before, it's just fun to see him interact with the other kids and learn from them.
He had to hold onto the helmet while he was running because if he didn't he couldn't see where he was going.
He looks to little out there....I can't believe he is old enough to do sports now! It is soooo exciting!
The home stretch finally!
Third Base!
Karson with some of his team. He is so out going, he asked each and everyone of them "what's your name" The amazing thing about Karson is that he remembers all of their names and even his coaches name. When we were driving home he asked me what their names were and I failed miserably, but he remembered every one! I need to practice my memory skills just to keep up with him, he gets frustrated when I can't name them all.
Karson and his best friend Marshall comparing mitts!
Brooklyn being a great supporter of her BIG brother Karson!

Christmas 2007


Brooklyn and Karson in their Christmas red!

Brooklyn loves watching all the other cousins. I love her SMILE!

Karson with the Haskell cousins! (Jake, Emily, KC, Kaleb and Karson) We always get together at Grandma and Grandpa Haskell's on Christmas eve, eat lots of YUMMY food and open gifts from our buddies and from Grandma and Grandpa. Everyone has a great time and then we get the kids home and in bed so Santa can come.

Karson got a shaving kit for Christmas too! Daddy is showing him how to do it. I think he will be shaving about ten times a day for a while!


Best Friends!!!


Karson got a huge Transformer!! He was so excited. It only took Daddy two hours to figure out how to transform it.


Brooklyn was so happy Christmas morning!


Christmas morning!! Mommy, Karson and Brooklyn

Thanksgiving at the Haskells





Thanksgiving was a success.....once the turkey was ready! It took a little longer than expected. We had Dave's mashed Potatoes, Brian's seven layer salad, Nancy's pies, Kristin's turkey, Maeser's and Nancy's rolls, and Joey's sparkling cider! We watched football, fit a puzzle and played. Brooklyn wore her first dress so I had to take lots of pictures cause she looked so darn cute! Karson made a pilgrim hat in preschool and had to wear it for the feast. We had a great time and hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving Holiday!

Grandma Sharron and Grnadpa Ned with Brooklyn, Karson and Cousin Bailee.

Brooklyn's first Halloween! Karson says that she is our little carrot. Karson was an Operation Overdrive Power Ranger. He was so excited when he was able to wear his costume to school. He said his friends were going to freak when they saw him! He loves Halloween. He and Brian carved their Jack-o-laterns and put them on the porch to scare the trick or treaters.

We went trick or treating to the grandparents houses and a couple of the neighbors too. It was a perfect night for it too. Karson's favorite thing about Halloween......definately the candy!

Happy Birthday

Kristin just had her 29th (ha ha!!) Birthday on October 27th. Brian spoiled me and took care of Karson and Brooklyn while I went and got a pedicure and a manicure. For those of you that have never had a pedicure, you've got to try it. It is amazing!


Karson loves to sing Happy Birthday!! He always gets to help blow out the candles too.

Scarecrow Festival-10/13/2007







October 13, 2007,

We attended the Scarecrow Festival at Thanksgiving Point! Savanna and Bailee joined us too. Karson's favorite thing was getting his face painted like Batman.
Karson and his dad got to make and decorate a rocket that they launched way up in the sky with the air rocket launchers. Karson and Bailee got to play lots of games and received prizes for doing so good. (ie: the teeth)
Brian and Karson also got to ride on the spider speedway, where Brian had to pedal the go cart for two laps. Brian didn't realize it was going to require exercise :)
Brooklyn slept through the whole thing and all in all we had a great time!!!!
