The camp out



The Boys helped clean up the toys in the living room so they got to put up a little tent to sleep in it for the night. It wasn't quite warm enough to sleep out side, but they have lots of fun anyway.

Kiethen



We went for a drive Kiethen wanted to get out a strech. It was pretty cold so he had to get all bundled up to. I thought that he looked cuite with his little had that I made him for Chirstmas. They turned out really cuite.

Cody's Preschool Class




Codys preschool class. They got to go to Pickett's Sheep for a field trip. They got to see all the baby lambs. The even got to feed some . It was a cold day but fun to learn about the animals.

Busy Life

Hello Everyone,

Well as you can see it has been a while since I have written. The only way for me to update this is when Chantry is home. He has been traveling a lot especially the month of January. He was gone every weekend and then only home for a little while during the week.

Life at the Whittles has been wild and crazy. Kiethen has been full of mischief; he has eaten a Christmas ball that I happened to leave out among other things. He sure has been keeping me on my toes.

Cody has been going to Preschool and is enjoying it. Last Thursday we went and saw all the sheep that they have at Pickett’s Ranch with his class. They had a lot of fun. He has been helping his Grandpa Whittle and his dad out in the shop. He likes being out there tinkering on things. This last week he was out in the shop playing with an engine hoist of some kind, putting is little trike on it and it almost fell on him it scared everyone. He just likes doing what the big guys are doing. The other day my friend and I took our kids to Twin Falls, on our way back Cody and Clarissa were saying The Pledge of Allegiance. They didn't have to have any help at all. It amazed me that they could say it without any help.

A couple of weeks ago we took the kids down to Grandpa and Grandma Chards house for my Birthday and played in the snow. We had a lot of fun, Man I can't believe that I am twenty seven. Man time flys by so fast, here in a couple of months Cody will be five. Chantry took me on a snowmobile ride on the dry farm with the old beater; it was a lot of fun. I was laughing because I was thinking about a movie called "Snowball Express" if you haven't seen it, it is a funny show. The part I am referring to is the race that they joined to get some money to save their hotel. On our ride we ran into some guys that had a lot more powerful sleds then we had. Chantry decided to go out on this pond with our sled where they had gone. Half way across we started so slow down, due to the slush in the center of the pond. We made it across and decided that we would find another way back.

The kids made me a cake with Grandma Chard and picked out some decorations and balloons. It was nice. Thanks mom, it meant a lot to me.

Each day I look at my kids and think they are such a joy in my life I don't know what I would do. Without them life would be so boring. There are times that it gets a little stressful, but I wouldn't trade them for the world. They are such sweet spirits.

Well I better get running for now, Hopefully I don't wait to long tell I wright again and all you mothers know that we never know what things might come up. :0)
