I haven't blogged for a while!

I haven't blogged for a while, because not much has been happening!  Here are a few pictures.

Bryan's 7th Birthday in February.  He likes Indian things. My parent's bought him this outfit.  He asked from us to give him  "a wallet, WITH money in it!

Gavin is now walking!

Funny, I don't remember taking this picture! I think my kids stole my camera and took it themselves.  Caleb's face says it all!

Back in February, Blake slipped on the ice and knocked out his front tooth!

Last Sunday we went to visit Shilo's Grandparents.  They sold their house, so this is the last time we  will get to visit them there.  (They lived there for over 50 years).  My kids loved visiting the "Grandma in the red house!"  We will miss living close to them.

Bryan's Picture

If you click on the Moreland Elementary website posted on my blog.  It  shows Bryan's school.  In this link, if you look at the bottom picture, you can see Bryan in the top right hand corner cut off.  The top picture you can see his cousin Bodie Gregersen.  They are at the assembly for school.

Then if you click on the link "Everyday Heros" in the Moreland Elementary Website,  you will see a picture of Bryan when he was awarded.

  Grandma Bingham happened to be substituting that day!

Gavin's 1st Steps!

Gavin is starting to want to walk.  He gets so excited when we all cheer for him.  Of course he won't do it when I have the video camera on!  But I did capture it on my digital camera.

Look at me!

 

(Sorry it is sideways.  I didn't realize I had recorded that way!)

Merry Christmas 2010

 Christmas Eve in Idaho Falls.

Sledding at Peterson Park!  

 

 

 We had so much fun sledding.  The boys were just crazy!  Kim and I tried having races.  The kids all loved the big tube my dad brought.

Here is Caleb down the hill. You would of thought that Caleb would have been hurt, but it didn't stop him for a minute!

Bryan's ginger bread house

 Then we all helped the children make gingerbread/graham cracker houses.  They wouldn't stay together.

Opening presents.  My family just has the kids exchange.

My mom bought the boys all new sweaters.

My family did a new tradition this year.  We had a Christmas FHE/ Program.  It was really neat and the kids had fun making a christmas ornament of bells.  Blake played his the whole way home.  Thanks again Kim!

 Christmas Morning!  The boys were so excited for Presents

I made an Indian  tepee for Bryan and Blake

Caleb and Gavin got a kitchen.  They just love it!

Shilo surprised me with a new toaster, nativity, and printer!

Shilo got tools, and a sweatshirt from the U of Illinois (that is where he is going to school for his Master's Degree Online)

Merry Christmas from the Binghams!

Many Things

Bryan's Christmas Program at school.  He looks like he is really into singing but he is yawning!

Our annual Nativity FHE.  The boys got really into it this year.

 

Gavin's First Birthday!  Has it already been a year'1  He didn't care much for the cake but like the ice cream.

His present from Grandma and Grandpa Bingham.  He was funny.  He kept pushing the wrapped gift off the couch.  Then when we opened it, his brothers wouldn't hardly let him play with it.

His new sled, but doesn't like the snow

His coat from Nana and Bapa

Fun with Nana and Bapa

Shilo had surgery, but is doing really well.

Happy Holidays to everyone!  We wish you a Merry Christmas from:  Shilo, Jillyn, and the boys!

Thanksgiving, Sun Valley, etc.

Happy Thanksgiving!  We spent Thanksgiving at home.  The holidays started when we had terrible snow storm and they closed the roads of Bingham County, and Shilo couldn't get to work.  Gavin and Caleb got sick Wednesday night, so on Thanksgiving, we couldn't all go to Grandma and Grandpa Bingham's..  Shilo and I took turns watching the sick kids, while the other one ate turkey and Pie!

Tons of snow!  Sledding in our yard

Pumpkin Pie for Thanksgiving

Decorating the Christmas Tree the day after Thanksgiving.

I cut my Hair!  "Smartly Bobbed" (Thoroughly Modern Millie Movie)

Shilo hung the lights around the house

This is what it looks like out side.

Shilo and I went to Sun Valley for a work trip.  This is the lodge that we stayed at.  There was a man just to open the door for you!  There are swans and ducks swimming in the pool in front.

Gavin got to come too!  He did really good on the long drive, but was fussy during the dinner, and didn't sleep real well.

Shilo by the Sun Valley Inn, where he had his work meeting.

 

You can see the ski mountain behind us.  I loved the village because everything was decorated for Christmas.  It just had this neat feeling like you were in a movie.  They have all these old pictures of movie stars, Presidents, Olympic athletes, etc that have been there.  Like: Lucille Ball, Gary Cooper, Pres. Ford, Janet Leigh and Jamie Lee Curtis, etc.  It was fun.  We even watched this old 40's movie with the Glenn Miller Band that takes place in Sun Valley.

Sunday was my birthday.  The boys were more excited to open the presents than me.  Blake asked me "Where are the Toys!"  Church was hard that day, but it was still a good birthday!

 

Blake's Birthday

Blake with Nana and Bapa

Blake is hugging the money he is so excited!  He also loved the "special markers!"

Hot Wheel trick track!!!



The boys can't wait to open and play.  Too bad Bryan has to go to school.  He was so mad!
