My very first Key Lime Pie- everything from scratch! This pie was heavenly, and it would have been nice to have a second piece if Chad had not walked off with all the leftovers after dinner. That's ok, I'll just have to make another one
Simon loves to lay by Faren every night before he goes to bed. His Daddy is his favorite person.
Boston, Simon, River... Aren't they cute?
Halloween 2009. After all the craziness, Simon broke into Boston's bag. Caught red handed!
Here's our scary ghost and the loot he made off with.
Boston was supposed to be dressed like a jellyfish for Halloween, but he refused to wear the big hat all night. (Really, who can blame him?) He ended up looking like one of the Blue Man Group from Las Vegas.
My only shot of the costumes before Boston lost the hat for good.
River is so proud of his pumpkins

Here we have it- photographic proof that the Eddins actually do sometimes have Family Home Evening! Send this one to the Proph!
Brandi Carlile- Beauiful voice, beautiful person- I highly reccomend her music to anyone.
Jasmine and I- she is my favorite person in the whole world- besides Faren of course- I hope to someday live next door to her and her husband Kevin and spend every day together! Ok, maybe that's too much of a good thing...
We were so close to the stage, which made it even better.
Here's my update on Simon. We went 4 wheeling on Saturday with some friends and Simon did a face plant down their ramp which had the texture of a cheese grater. He cried for about 30 sec., then he kept trying to do it again. This kid will be lucky to get through life with all his limbs.
The morning after the fall, Simon fell off the bathroom counter and cut his chin open. I guess this picture of him eating his sticky pancakes and syrup doesn't make him look any better either. We decided not to take him to church that day so we could avoid anyone calling CPS.
River and Boston at the top of Jackson Hole Ski Resort. I love that they can fight for 7 hours straight in the car and then smile and hug for a damn photo.
In Yellowstone, each animal spotted by the kids was worth a dollar amount. This moose netted River $2. 
We looked good enough in this photo that some Asians actually took their cameras off the geysers and began snapping shots of us.

We stayed at a hotel with an indoor water slide. 
The birthday theme this year: Monsters!
River loves Where's Waldo books- and now he has one for travel- as long as he doesn't get car sick and throw up!
My 3 monsters- 4 if you count Grandma.
I had to throw this in here. Isn't Simon so cute? Notice the disgusting scab falling off his forehead- another one of his falls. I bet you want to pick that off, huh Taun? 
We took the kids to a street festival in Rexburg for Riv's bday. He rocked that climbing wall.
More Legos- endless fun... 
Boston learned how to ride a bike with NO TRAINING WHEELS! He is our youngest child to do that- only 4 1/2. The problem was, he wasn't so great at going down hills and braking. We took his bike up to our cabin, and not 5 minutes after arriving, Boston had crashed and burned pretty major riding down a hill. We heard him scream from far away, and when we found him, he was walking his bike up the hill with blood running down his face and arms. We took him to the Dr., who gave him 9 stitches on the upper lip. And let me tell you, watching your child get stitches has got to be one of the most miserable things to witness. He was fine after that- as soon as we went to get him some ice cream. 
Simon is our other Evel Keneivel child who thinks he's a big boy and tries to climb and ride the big boy's bikes, the lawnmower, the four wheeler, and Faren's motorbike. He ALWAYS has a huge nasty scab on his head from falling on his face on the pavement or a corner of the wall. Now that I think about it, maybe it's not these kids fault that they get hurt so much- maybe I'm just not a very attentive mother....
Top of the Stratosphere in Las Vegas, the city I hope I never have to live in.
Aparently this guy did something important in Mexico, or they wouldn't have a ginormous statue of his head.
Every night when we came to bed, or room steward had cleaned everything up and turned down our bed and left us a cute towel animal and some mints. Ahhh... it's better than having your mom take care of you!
Probably the only time we sat and did nothing.
I wish I had a video of all of us trying to squeeze into our wetsuits to go snorkeling. And I won't even put on here my picture of me in my full body one either. That thing still gives me nightmares.
