Craig's Farewell

We went down to St. George last wednesday so we could be there for Craig's farewell. On Thursday we ran all our errands & that night we went to the corn maze at the Staheli family farm. We had so much fun. The Maze is 20 acres, & it has three-mazes-in-one. I think we made it through about half of it before it got to dark to keep going. The kids really enjoyed the maze & did not want to leave. Kolbie however enjoyed the petting Zoo, & getting to wash his hands after. He washed the for about 10 minutes before I had to just pick him up and walk away from the water.

This is a picture of the maze. we went through the one with the big L in the middle of it.


Me & Kamree got a little hungry while we were out there walking through the maze.


Kolbie's favorite part of the petting zoo.

This picture is of my mom & a witch that was sitting on a bike as you walked in the gate at the farm. She likes witches so we had to take a picture of her by one.


Friday morning my mom & I went to matthew's school & decorated his car for the last football game. But when he came home for lunch he cleaned it all off so we did not even get a picture. That night we went to matthews last football game against Dixie High School. They lost 24 to 0. But we still had fun watching you play Matthew.


Saturday and Sunday are a bit of a blur there was so much going on that we didn't get alot of pictures. My mom & I went to super saturday then came home and started cooking for the lunch on sunday after church. Then we spent the night visting with family. Sunday Craig gave a talk in church. ( you did awesome by the way Craig). And then we went to the park for lunch after. I can't believe that he is leaving for the MTC next week. I can't belive how fast time has gone by since he got his call.

Here he is Elder Hughes!!!


Thank you Craig for the wonderful exsample that you set not only for my kids but for me as well. We love you......and I mean it no more growing while you are gone. I am short enough.

Another one falls out

kamree lost one of her top teeth today, and her other one is loose. she has been walking around singing all I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth.

Stitches R Out

Kolbie got his stitches out today, and let me tell you what I never want to go through that again. He screamed, hit, & kicked me the whole time the doctor was taking them out. I had to hold him down to even let the doctor look at them to make sure that they could come out. After he doctor took out all 5 stitches he would not even look at the doctor.

Kolbie's Ouchie

Yesterday Kolbie cut his hand open on a piece of glass and we ended up taking him up to the ER to get it looked at, after several attempts of band aids and liquid band aid not working.The doctor came in and looked at it and said he needed to have stitches. Kolbie would not let the doctor to close to his hand after he looked at the 1st time. So they wanted to sedate him so they could do the procedure. But the medicine they gave him did not work. so they the anesthesiologist came in and gave him a shot to put him to sleep. After they finished stitching him up we had to sit there and wait for him to wake up. 5 stitches and 4 hours later we got to come home.
This is the cut on his hand. He had to have the 5 stitches in the middle of it.

They had to put him on oxegyn while he was sleeping. Whatever they gave him made him sleep so deep that it made him breathe funny.

this is the after math. He likes to pull things off so we have to keep it covered. We don't want him to be picking at his stitches.

Kolbie's Party

We had a little family party for Kolbie out @ mom's (Denise) house on Saturday. Kolbie loved the cake and ice cream but loved opening presents even more. He got a pair of pants, 3 shirts, a set of tracktors, a toy nin nin (4 wheeler), a shapes block, a new pair of shoes( that I bought with the money that grandma gave him), & a trike. He loves all of his toys & plays with them every day.

Look Who's Turning 2!

Kolbie Kim Hoggard is turning 2 today. Wow how time goes by fast, it seems like it was yesterday that we brought him home from the hospital. We have enjoyed watching him grow into a sweet, fun, loving little boy that he is today.






Happy Birthday Kolbie we love you.
