Some more of Taggert's irresistible silly face!

Grandma Price's Funeral

My Grandma Nora Williams Price passed away on December 8, 2012.  It was her birthday.  I went a saw her just a few hours before she passed away.  A lot  of family was around her and had been in and out for two days previous to say our good buys.  She was fun busy Grandma and I have many many fun memories of her on the ranch in Darlington.  She always had something for us to do if we weren't busy doing something ourselves.  This is a picture of most of her granddaughters at the funeral.  We went out and formed a line on both sides of the procession with gifts that she had made us over the many years and flowers.  It was really pretty cool.

The boys had a good relationship with Grandma and were sad to have her gone.  There were a lot of questions and concerns but they made it through it.  Maestin probably took it the hardest, when we went to see her for the last time, I let him choose whether he wanted to go in and see her or not.  She was not lucid and kind of sad to see.  He chose not to, but was very upset that night.  He knew her the best and she loved him.  It was a growing experience for him, and neat that he did have such a good relationship with a great grandparent.

Kallen and grandpa.  She was a great Grandma and I will always have such good memories.  We love you Grandma!

More Sleepy Bouncy Taggert!!

I just can't resist taking a picture of when my babies fall asleep in their bouncy!  Taggert is such a good boy, he doesn't complain just plays until he can't play anymore.  It actually makes me feel guilty when he falls asleep like this, I love to rock my babies to sleep, it is one of my favorite things! 

Game night with Dad

The boys love to play games with Dad, and dad is good to play!  They are playing farm monopoly!  They love this game!

Funny Face Taggert!

 Taggert started pulling this funny face every time I would get the camera out.  So spent the next three or four days trying to get it.  And I may have done it later just because it is so cute.  These pictures are a series of picture over three days trying to get a picture of his funny face!

He loves to play with animals.

Love that smile!

Just missed the funny face!

And there it is!  I got it!!

I got it again!  I was actually trying to get the pen on his face and i captured the funny face!:)

Happy Holloween

Taggert watching the excitement of carving pumpkins.

Maestin working hard...he had a terrible time deciding what his was going to be.  He decided and the drama didn't stop until it was complete but it was cool.

Holdan pouting because he didn't like the gooie stuff inside the pumpkin.

Ruxton was a good big brother and a hard worker and cleaned out Holdan's for him.

More of the unlike.  However he knew just what he wanted.  We drew it and he sat on dad's lap and cut it all out.

Taggert on Halloween once again stuck in the chair watching the craziness of getting ready for trick or treating.  We were running behind because we had went out to the canyon to take care of the cows.  So, it was a mad dash of costumes and food then to Grandma Price's we went.  She had a fun spooky treasure hunt, cupcakes, and warm pumpkin drinks for us all.  They loved the treasure hunt and are still wondering about the noises and grandmas tricks in the dark.  We then just decided to stay with the St. John crowd and of course were rewarded handsomely   They would even sent out a goody to Austin and I.  I love St. John

Addler was non other than world champion calf roper Tuff Copper.

Maestin wanted to be a bull fighter, as I was looking for real bullfighter paint jobs I came across World Champion bull fighter Rob Smets.  Maestin was sold and wanted his paint job and he was Rob Smets.

Yes, my family I did this not my mommy.  I was pretty proud of myself.

Ruxton picked out a pirate face for his pumkin that I thought was pretty cool.

Holdan was a ninja

Craziness trying to get a picture of the whole crew...Addler is tying a calf in record time, Holdan in ninja kicking, Ruxton...who knows, and Maestin well he thought it was great!

My Halloween gang...Love than so much, they are all so fun, we had a fun day together as a family in the mountains looking for cows, then a great evening celebrating the spooky holiday!
