Kristina!

Kristina Chernikova is living with us this year as most everyone knows. Here she is with Talia and Abbigail. They think she is great and so do we.
Kristina is attending Declo high school this year and is a member of the FFA. They were able to attend the Eastern Idaho State fair in Blackfoot. She thought that was great and she even rode the mechanical bull.




For Declo's homecoming
week, they dressed up differently every day. This Kristina with Caleb Searle on their crazy day.

Random pictures from the last three months

This is our talented family playing rock band last summer. Notice the high level of concentration on each of their faces. In case you don't recognize everyone. It is Chelsea singing, Hyrum and Devon on guitars and Sarah at the drums. It was a fun time.
This is our water sliding party also last July. It ended with everyone watching the little boys play in the puddle of water on the plastic tarp.
I loved this action shot of Nate and Chantille holding Cooper and Carson. The boys loved it, I think.
Talia is in 6th grade this year and participates in cross country. She is getting to be a pretty good runner. She took 7th place in this race.
This is how Talia looked on Crazy day. Her school had spirit week a few weeks ago and this one was crazy day. Chantille helped with the hairdo but Talia did the rest.

Even more snowstorm!

This is my lovely hanging basket of flowers that are full of snow. My guess is that they won't bloom any more.
In this picture you can see Dad's pickup that got stuck trying to get up our driveway last night. Did I mention that all of these vehicles are four wheel drive? Those light yellow strips at the top of the picture are our neighbors corn field. The corn is the only crop that shows above the snow.

More snowstorm!



I am having a hard time navigating this post the way I want to but the two pictures in the last post are taken of the front deck and front steps. This picture is taken also out of the front door and in the middle of the picture you can see Hyrum's pickup that got stuck when he was trying to get up our driveway yesterday.

Huge Snowstorm in October!!!!




Yesterday we had the biggest snowstorm I think we have ever had and it was on the 11th of October!! Crazy, it snowed all day and we probably ended up with 1 and 1/2 feet to 2 feet of snow. Church is cancelled today andvehicles are stuck in our driveway and we have no water so I thought I would take some pictures and post them so everyone could see what we are going through. Also did I mention that we have almost all of our sugar beets and beans still out in the fields and also all of our potatoes so it isn't really a good time for a huge snowstorm but thats what we have.
