Back To School

Happy boy

This is the face that I get to enjoy every time that I go in to get Hunter after naps. If only we all woke up this happy!

And the winner is. . .

TANNER!

Equestrian Show

Did you know that just ten minutes from our house is a location that does Equestrian Shows? I have grown up my whole life here and had not a clue. Since we moved here 3 1/2 years ago I have seen signs advertising the shows, but never seemed to make it out. We finally put it on our calendars and remembered to go this time.

Although we didn't really know what was going on, it was cool to watch how high these horses could jump. I think the hardest part for the kids was that you had to be quiet while there was a rider on the course.


After we got tired of watching (which in reality was only maybe 10 minutes), we walked down behind the arena (if that is what you call it) and asked a lady if she wouldn't mind telling us about her horse. We spent about a half an hour with her and the kids couldn't keep their hand off of the horse. It was a neat experience for us city folk.

Adam's Wedding

Adam and Shannon got married on June 4th. Can you see the pure joy in their eyes? And it wasn't just for the pictures either. They are constantly smiling when they are together. It is so fun. Anyways, their wedding led of course to family pictures. They turned out pretty cute.



This is a picture of the whole Higham Family (or it was a complete picture until Tami and Shelley went ahead and had babies in the last couple of weeks. Christi and Melanie will be adding a couple more by the end of the year). Kind of crazy that this pure chaos is just going to grow.
And here is Grandpa and Grandma Higham with all the grandkids. They did have pictures with most of the kids smiling, but this is by far my favorite.
And then we have a picture with all the siblings, including those married in. Someday there will be four more individuals in this picture. We barely fit in the frame as is.
And here is a picture of my family. It is weird to think we are all growing up and that Michael is 15 already. Aren't I 15 still? I guess not with the 5 kids I have. Time flies.
And then finally a picture of me and my bro Adam. It was a very fun weekend with all the family in town. Thanks Adam and Shannon for bringing everyone together. It seems a rare opportunity these days!
