Fun at home!

Some of the fun "activites" we do here at home...

Daddy LOVES to scare the kiddos every now and then, this time Hammy wanted to help...I think they scared Bubba. :)
The kids asked if they could put on a muscial for me and Dad. Boo is playing her recorder she plays in school, Buggy is playing her Dora guitar and Bubba is playing a flute (via his gun he got for his birthday). It was SOOO cute.

This house LOVES to dance. I have my little stereo in the kitchen so that I can listen to music when I'm cooking or doing dishes. I'm quite often joined by this crew. Hammy dressed in his sister's tutu.

Buggy and Bubba trying to turn the other one...right after this picture they kind of fell on the floor all tangled up.

Daddy snapped this picture of us one morning...I was making french toast and all the kids love to watch us cook.

Camping up Grover Park

We didn't get to do much camping this summer, but we were able to go up Grover Park just as a family. We had so much fun!

Best Buddies!
Kids enjoying the fire the night we got up there.

I LOVE this picture of Bubba. It is such a personality picture of him.

Buggy, silly girl!! She's saying cheese, but she can't say it without scrunching up her face! :)

Boo, enjoying the fire, having her picture taken, just enjoying everything!

So with this picture, it was really funny. Hammy had eaten most of his graham cracker and then told us it was a horsey...and it was walking on the arm of Daddy's chair! :) It was so funny. Imagination of a 2 year old.

Weirdo!!

The twins found a stump to climb up on and play on...so I was taking pictures of them...and didn't notice that I got a picture of Buggy picking her nose!! :) Too funny.

Hammy loves to gather sticks for Daddy for the fire. He really likes to throw them in the fire too, which sure makes me nervous at times.

Boo was a little bored. It's hard being the oldest and not having anyone really close to your age to hang out with.

Daddy filming the kids playing. The flower in his hat is the one I picked for him that morning.

Bubba and his funny personality again!

Buggy in La-La Land.

Hammy was so proud of himself stacking those dice!

We had a blast as a family. One morning we took Grandpa's side-by-side up some trails as far as we could go...about a 2 hour drive. We just enjoyed the scenery and the time together as a family! Grandma and Grandpa Hepworth and Cliff and Haylee joined us one night for dinner. We sure had a blast with everyone!

Birthdays

As you know, June and July are FULL of birthdays in our house. So, we'll start with Hammy.

Happy 2nd Birthday Hammy! We sure are glad you are part of our home. You bring such laughter into it!! Love you buddy!!
Opening gifts
One of his gifts was a big blue ball, you can see it at the very top of the picture.

Next is Miss Buggy's birthday on July 7th.

Happy 5th Birthday Bug! We sure love you! You definitely keep us in line in this house, what would we do without you! Love you Buggy!!

She of course wanted a pink cake. I found these really cute flower rings and that's what is on her cake.

So funny story about this little bear...Daddy doesn't like stuffed animals...for whatever reason. But I saw this cute little ballerina bear in the store and immediately thought of Bug. I knew that she would love it. So, I finally talked him into letting me get it for her from one of the kids. When she opened the gift, this is what she did...wrapped it in a huge hug and said, "My very own teddy bear!" She sleeps with that bear every night now. Sometimes you just need to listen to Mom, she really does know what she's talking about! :)

I forgot to get a picture of Hammy's but my mom has made the grandkids their own stick horse when they get to a certain age. Because my kiddos just joined the family, she made them for them this year. This was Bug's...she LOVED it!

Pure excitement looking at his horsey cake!!

Happy 4th Birthday Bubba! You keep us on our toes everyday. I'm scared to think of what you just might put us through in the next few years...I'm going to be a young gray Mom! Love you Bubba!!

Boy, that sure is true. His daddy is his best friend!! (You can see Hammy's horse in the background. It is the spotted one.)

Bubba's new pony!! Needless to say, ever since they got their horses, my house has been a rodeo. They got cowboy hats from Aunt Erin and Uncle Kenny and ever since then, they ride through the house, hats on, horses galloping, guns in hands...it's pretty funny!!

The cool cakes Aunt Erin made for them! Thanks Aunt Erin!

I'll have to post pictures later of Scab's birthday...we did a birthday party for him but of course the one thing I forgot was my camera so when I get all the pictures from everyone else, I'll get them posted!

Head's up

I'm sorry, I've been so behind on getting posts up on what are family has been up to...this morning sickness stuff hasn't been fun but I think I'm finally getting past all of that so now is the time to update you all on the Wolfley's. So, here is your head's up...I'm going to post...a few updates on our family. Quite a few actually, so bare with us and enjoy!! :) Love you all!

IT'S A GIRL!!

Yep, that's right. We are having a girl. Well, the doctor wasn't 100% positive but he was about 80% positive. She was being a bit bashful. But, we go to the Radiologist in about 2 1/2 weeks to measure everything, make sure we are right on schedule and they are going to check again at that time. It was really fun to watch her moving around on the ultrasound...her hands were moving and her legs. We listened to her heartbeat again, which just makes me smile from ear to ear, knowing that she's doing ok. So, Little Girl (name to come) Wolfley seems to be doing well and right on schedule. We should get to meet her around the end of January, first of February!!

To My Best Friend!

It was one year ago today that I went on the very first date with Scab. It was a blind date, set up by our friends. We had known each other 10 years previous when we both worked at the Star Valley Cheese Factory. He worked in the back with the cheese, and I worked in the restaurant. We've found out through conversations now that we were attracted to each other then, we just couldn't do anything about it because he was 21 and I was 15...not a way to start ANY sort of relationship.

For our first date, we doubled with some of our friends and went to Bar J Wranglers Chuckwagon in Jackson, WY. We all rode in our friends truck, Scab and I in the back, each of us next to the door. We were both pretty nervous, but excited as well. By this time, we'd been texting for a couple weeks and we had talked on the phone a number of times and had even met officially once. But still, you know how nerves can go! :)

During the performance at the Bar J, both of us wanted to sit next to the other. We both wanted to hold the others hand, yet neither of us could work up the courage. As we left, I was very cold (not a lie to get him to put his arm around me, that was just a fringe benefit) and he did put his arm around me to keep me warm as we walked to the truck. He opened the door so I could climb in and I thought, "I'm going to sit in the middle, not by the other door. I want to sit by him." I have never regretted that idea!

It didn't take him long to wrap his arms around me, for me to lay my head on his shoulder, and for him to lean down and give me a sweet kiss!!! Halfway home, he leaned over to me and said, "I don't know why, but this feels so comfortable and so right!" I couldn't have agreed with him more. All is history from that point on!!

I fell in love with him that night, it didn't take but a day or so to fall in love with his kids. I have never regretted one minute for the fast decision I made to date a man with kids. They are my life! I may not have given birth to them, but it doesn't change the fact that I love them as if I had. One day, we will get to go to the temple to be cealed as man and wife, and that day will be the best day. Not only will I be cealed to my best friend in the whole world, but by being cealed to him, I get to be cealed to my kids. They get to have 2 moms that love them more than they will ever know...yet I feel like the blest one to have them in my life!

Babe, I love you with all my heart and I look forward to MANY more days with you!

Love, Your Kiddo!

(Fun little fact, today I am exactly 4 months pregnant! Funny that it fell on today! I love it!)

Ol' Moose

It's been WAY too long since I last posted but life has been crazy. Between home life, helping my hubby with his leather work for this weekends booth, and morning sickness/flu bug...it's been a rough month. But, now we'll get us all caught up.

We bought Ol Moose from Scab's Dad and he has been a wonderful horse. Daddy decided to saddle him up the other day and take the kids for rides.

Buggy & Bubba - Buggy was steering him all over the coral. They loved it.

Boo was...nervous at first but eventually she was ok to steer him around herself.
Daddy & Hammy. Hammy LOVED every minute of it!

See! :)

All the kids

Dad wanted in the picture too, but I finally told him he needed to move over closer to the kids.

Thus resulting picture!

YEEHAW!!

They had a blast. Thanks Daddy for taking them on a ride!
