Happy Birthday Grandpa Hinckley!

Happy Birthday Grandpa!Happy birthday dad. We love you and are thinking about you today.

Hope you are having a great day!

P.S. Yesterday Jackson had quite a bit of dental work done. He had 2 sealants, 2 fillings (his first), and a tooth pulled! He did so great in the dentist's chair. He acted like it was no big deal!Jackson Rocks!

Our Last Rockies Game

We have had so much fun going to a few Colorado Rockies games this year. Last night was our last game. The Rockies lost, and it rained at the end of the game, but it is still a fun thing to do. Notice the empty seats behind us - we were some of the last crazy people to take cover from the rain. Thanks to the Hampsons for introducing us to the extremely cheap seats and a "rockin" good time.

Yes mom, this is an actual picture of me.

The home run cheers were too loud for poor Tommy.

Ahhhhh! It's raining!

My first slideshow!

Check out our new pet!

One night, we started hearing a cricut chirping in out basement. I told the kids they needed to catch it because it was loud (and who wants a big bug in their basement)! They tried all kinds of things for a few days. Finally on Friday night, they saw it. With a little help from dad, they caught it and got it in a jar. Molly thinks she wants it in her room, but we have to move it into the garage at night because it is really loud when it's only in the next room. I guess the kids can't complain that we won't let them have a pet anymore.

Ready or not - here I go!

Ok, here I go. I am not really sure what I am doing, but I'm going to give it a go. This will be the first post on my new blog. What do I say? Clayton and I have been married for 11 years and have 4 fantastic kids and one more on the way. Jackson is 8, Molly is 6, Tommy is 3, Grant is 17 mos, and the last one is due January 4th (another boy). Looking at picture is much more fun than reading all about us don't you think? Here are a few pics. This is Clayton and Jackson on his baptism day at the end of March. Molly was in a dance recital this year, isn't she adorable!

Over the 4th of July we visited the Phillipps' family farm in Idaho. This is Tommy at a small town parade on the 4th. The other kids call this his "chinese smile".

I'm not sure how it happened, but Grant managed to get mustard in his eyes. Apparently it doesn't feel too great. I don't know how often I will be able to post, but I guess I am happy to be joining the 21st century with a blog. (Sorry everything seems so choppy and all over the page. Maybe someone can give me some pointers on how to make this do what I want it to.)
