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)

Hello everyone,
Again, I write having only a few minutes to write, a few words of what I have been doing the last couple weeks. I have been putting some Christmas lights up on the house and setting up the tree in the house. It was fun to have the kids help, Cody and Kiethen liked the little tree that I put in their room. I hung some lights in their room for their night light. Cody sure likes it, Kiethen likes it dark better.

This week we sold my horse I am kind of sad, but happy that she is going to go to a girl that will take good care of her. Now next spring we will have to look for me another horse. Well have to see what spring will bring.

While we were in Utah for Thanksgiving, I had my sister Rahndi take some family pictures. They turned out really good Thank You Rahndi. It was fun playing games and visiting with everyone down there.

Busy Life

Hello Everyone,
It has been a while since I last blogged. Things have picked up the pace since the last time that I posted. Oh well that is life when your kids get busy. Chantry has been gone a lot and has had his computer so I haven't been able to work on our blog. We are at my Mom and Dad’s in Utah for Thanksgiving with our family, David and his family are coming down as well.

This last couple of days I have been taking advantage of the nice weather. I put the Christmas lights on the house. It was fun to see Cody get so excited about seeing all the lights light up. I have been fighting a rodent problem. A little mouse decided it likes it inside our house better than outside. I can't stand mice, it is so frustrating to try and catch it.

Work is picking up for the Holidays. I always love this time of year, being with family, and remembering all the things that we used to do. We are looking forward to making some new memories this year. May everyone have a wonderful Thanksgiving and look forward to Christmas.

Cody Josiah Whittle

These are some of Cody pictures from this summer. He sure is growing up fast and is the light of my life. I wouldn't know what to do if he wasn't here with our family he certainly is a joy.

Kiethen

This is some pictures of Kiethen that I thought that you guys might like. He gives me a run for my money. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
