Thriller
Last weekend we went down to Utah to go to Thriller with DJ and Katelyn. We had a ton of fun. The show was really neat and the only person that wet themselves because they were scared was Katelyn.
Layla's Third Brithday!
Yesterday was Layla's birthday. We had a lot of fun. Grandma Christensen and Aunt Mindy came up to celebrate it with her. They got up here on Wed and left earlier today. We had been planning on going to the Linder Farms pumpkin patch to get pumpkins, and were glad that it stopped raining just long enough for us to go. It was lots of fun. Layla rode the kiddie cow tractor and played on the inflated slides. After she was finished with that, which wasn't long enough according to her, we went to the pumpkin patch and picked our pumpkins. Hazel really enjoyed the tractor ride that took us to and from the fields. The kids were pretty tuckered out by the time we headed home. When we got home we had some of Layla's swimming pool cake that Elsie made. Layla had been asking all day long for the cake. We opened her remaining presents after cake. For her birthday, and throughout the course of the week, Layla got a scooter, some rolling luggage, some Sunday clothes, books, games, puzzles, skates and cards. He was very excited with all of her gifts, but tossed aside the money that she got in her pretty cards. Isn't it usually the other way around? Anyways, thank you to everyone that helped to make her feel special on her birthday. She is already looking forward to her next one.

Ballet Lessons
Layla had the greatest time at her first Ballet lesson. Justin and I decided she needed something active and social to do. Justin suggested dance, so here she is. She loved it so much. At the end she didn't want to leave. She gets to go every Tuesday at noon. And She will have 2 Recitals. I'm really excited for her. And She was just so darn cute!!

Hazel Walking
So this week Hazel started walking pretty good. She started a few weeks ago taking a couple of steps, but this week she just let go. The other pictures are from Craters of the Moon. We stopped there on our way back from a funeral that we had in Alta WY this last week.

Who Knows????
While we were at McCall for family vacation we got to play a few games. We all showed Devan how to really play Settlers and there was a little Rook action. Another game that was played was Hillarium. Little did most people know that some of the game was caught on video. It's funny how crazy people act when they think that nobody is watching....

Catching up
Ok, ok. So we slacked off during the summer. And then we moved and haven't had Internet until now. So those of you who check our blog regularly, we apologize. I just kind of wanted to do a catch up blog. So I went to St. George for a family reunion, and we went to McCall a couple of times. Right before the Walker family vacation we moved to Boise and into an apartment. Our new address is 6253 Tierra Ln #102 Boise ID 83704. Justin stared his last semester at BSU and I stay home with our girls. They are growing like weeds. Hazel mimics things that we do and is trying to walk. 6 steps so far. Layla thinks she is 16 and lets us know it. Parenting is a bit of a struggle. Justin's schedule is rather busy so we are alone a lot. But we try to make our time together count though. Over labor day we went to the Boise Zoo. It was a rather warm day but we enjoyed our outing. We were bummed though, because the monkey house was closed due to the birth of a baby monkey. But the butterflies were there.

First Ski of the Year
This last Saturday Grandpa Walker took us to Mann Creek Reservoir, near Weiser. Justin got his first 2 ski runs of the year in and looked pretty good. I also skied and was very proud that I at least got up. Layla said she wanted to ski with Daddy, until she jumped in the freezing cold water. She screamed and jumped right back out. She didn't ask to ski again. It was also Hazel's first Boat ride, she slept right through it. We really enjoyed it and are hoping to get to go a lot this year.
Crazy Layla
Layla is into dancing. Whenever there is music she goes crazy and starts to dance. Most of the moves seen in this video are adaptations of clogging moves that Grandma Walker taught her. However, she has still yet to master the "gidee up... ah.. umm.. bapa..umm..bapa moww moww."
Hazel's soo big
This is a video of Hazel doing a little trick. She started it about a month ago. But has since stopped. We loved it while it lasted. We hope you all enjoy it as much as we did!

Layla's Horseride
Layla got to ride a horse for the first time over Easter. She absolutely loved it. We were riding the old, very tame horses. So they walked really slow and would trot a lot to catch up with the others. Layla thought it was the funnest thing ever. I'm sure after her ride, she wouldn't mind in the slightest if we had horses.
