Timber! and Halloween Fun

Down It Goes!

Shilo is milking for his Dad while they go to Pennsylvania to see Kolby and Rachael and Makenzie.  So he bought a chain saw, and goodbye tree.  We were worried it would hit the house.

A canning Fool!

 This is what I have been doing this past month and a half!  I'm so sick of Canning!!!!!

 Gavin was so cute in this picture by the leaves.

 Caleb is pulling Gavin in the pedal tractor that use to be Shilo's.

Cheetah-man

 Happy Halloween.  Caleb was "Cheetah-Man" (family joke: that is what the boys call the motorcycle's that go by our house real fast.)


Gavin was "Super Baby!"


 I made all of the boy's capes.

 Bryan wanted to be a Vampire!

 Blake wanted to be "Batman!"

 Happy halloween from the Bingham's.

 My mom and Dad came to take me kids to our ward Trunk or Treat.

Amber, Josh, Josiah, Bethany, and Gabriel came to it too.  Jared was helping Shilo milk cows.


We Had a very fun Halloween!  BOO!

September

 What The Bingham Family has been doing this last month.

 Gavin turned 9 months and has learned to crawl.

 Bryan got Gavin to sleep all on his own. 

Bryan lost his first tooth.  As you can tell from the picture it was a traumatic experience.  I asked If I could take a picture of the hole, and he said "Maybe when I am Happy."

 Here Bryan is Happy!  It is weird to see him smile with a missing tooth.

Bryan had another loose tooth.  I tried to get him to pull it himself, but in the end I had to pull this one too!

 Blake started preschool.  We take turns once a week.  It is lots of fun and the boys love it.  The boys are: Zane, my nephew, (Caleb had to be in the picture too,) Roan, Keaton, and Blake.  They will all go to Kindergarten next year.



Shilo started to cut down our pine tree on Labor Day.



We had to wait for the family of owls to leave.  It was a weird looking tree and we wanted the space.  Hopefully we will be able to cut the rest down before the SNOW!!



Back to School: 1st Grade

First Day of School. We almost missed the bus because we weren't sure what time it would come this year.

Yesterday we went to drop off Bryan's supplies. Here is Moreland Elementary.

Bryan's classroom. His teacher is Mrs. Evan's.

Bryan was so excited to have his own desk this year.
I can't believe he will be gone all day. It seems weird without him. Blake was very jealous that he didn't get to go to school. "It's taking too long," says Blake.

I saw this picture on my computer screen and I wanted to cry. It's Bryan 6 1/2 years ago. Why did my baby have to grow up?

Pioneer Day!

Happy 24th of July!!!
Bryan and Gavin

We walked to our wards Pioneer Celebration at the church.

Making pioneer toys.

Building the Nauvoo Temple

Riding in the Handcart.

Gunny Sack races!

Gavin is just too cute.

Three legged race. Shilo and I tried this too, but we didn't get pictures.

Stick pole, Bryan won.

Strong Man game, Shilo won.

We had so much fun. I hope our ward does it next year. It was fun dressing up and playing games.

Poison control

I now have the number to Poison Control memorized, thanks to my son Caleb (2yrs)!!! I had to call it, again, because he got into windex this time. Luckily the people at Poison Control are very nice, and don't make you feel like a bad mother. They just told me that windex has alcohol, so watch to see if he becomes intoxicated (no kidding that is what they told me!) He is fine. He told me he threw it out the upstairs window. I was in the shower when this happened. There wasn't much in the bottle to begin with. There is a reason we call him "TROUBLE".

So, in case you don't know the number it is: 1-800-222-1222!!!!

Big Weekend- 4th of July

Our Fun weekend started Thursday. We went camping for the first time with just our family. We went to the Falls Campground by Swan Valley.

Thanks to Mickie and Jeff we borrowed their tent so that we could all fit. The boys thought it was tons of fun. We got attacked by mosquitos the moment we stepped out of the van.

Shilo was the cook for this trip. We had chicken burgers for dinner and pancakes for breakfast. He likes to do it.

Gavin was actually quite fussy that night. One of us had to always be holding him. Which made it extremely hard to help the other 3 boys. But they all slept really well that night.

The Next day we took a hike to the Falls. They are off the road about 1 mile from the campground. It is about 60 feet down. The boys thought they were really cool. I was really scared for them to get to close to the side of the edge because there is nothing to stop you. They wanted to throw things down the water.

Here is just a little pond on top of the water fall that we let them play in.

Gavin rode in the stroller on the way there, and Shilo carried him half of the way back. I stopped with the boys off the side of the road, while shilo went to get the van. It was getting really hot the boys were tired and moving too slow.

Friday night I went to my 10 year High School Reunion. It was okay. I just wish more of my friends had come. At least we got to eat Johnny Carino's!

Late that night we also took Bryan and Blake to the drive in to see TOY STORY 3!!! It was fun and we all stayed awake through the whole movie and got home after midnight.

Saturday morning we went to the IF Parade with mom and dad. It was cold and windy. That is IDAHO for ya!

We learned you don't get any candy unless you sit in the very front with all of the people. Next time, Bring our own candy!

That afternoon we had a bbq at Jared and Amber's house in Rigby. Kurt is showing the delicious hamburgers. (I love this picture!)

Bryan and Josiah.

It was Gabriel's 3rd birthday and they ate cupcakes. The kids were eating their frosting, then putting more on their cupcakes, over and over. Bryan had a tummy ache. We all had lots of fun. The best was Jalene's homemade icecream and Nancy S. homemade cherry pie!!! Yum.

I also got to go visit Grandma Tietjen in the rest home. It was a neat experience. It was exactly a year ago that Grandpa died. It was neat to be with Grandma on that day. Love you Grandma.

That night we were exhausted from such a full weekend. We did find some left over fireworks from last year. Shilo had fun lighting them off the and boys enjoyed it.

Happy 4th of July!!!
