That Grandpa!

This grandpa is wrapped around some little fingers!!! Chloe handed Grandpa the nail polish and told him she needed her nails painted and Ella too!

Mmmmm I love sugar

The other day I got busy making beds cleaning up a little when I heard a voice coming from the kitchen "mmmm I love sugar yum yum" and I knew before I came around the corner that Chloe must be in the sugar! She never cease to amaze me with what she will do or say next!

The Kids

I am a little late posting the pictures of St. Pattys day..oops! Here are the Felde clan all dressed in green! Oh and here is a hair do that I Chloe had! I love it she is so fun!

J&J

I never thought that it would be so much fun to be married to one of my best friends brothers! Ten years ago when Jeff and I started to date Jacquie and I would joke that we would be related and now that we are it has been so fun! I love Jacquie she really is the sweetest girl that is so down to earth!

My Little man

I have had so much fun getting to know this little boy, he is so funny and very smart. This night he really didn't want to take pictures he just wanted to run with all the other kids and eat Oreo pie! Baby G you are the cutest!

My Little Fan

This past weekend Jeff rented the movie Twilight for me ( yes he even watched it with me)and while we were watching it a part came on with the actor that played Edward and Chloe looks over at me and says "Oh he is tute (cute)" and the only thing Jeff could do is moan in disbelieve!

You have a WHAT...WHERE??

So in the car last night Kobe informed us that Cooper had a rock stuck in his ear...ahhh! So Jeff and I started to think how could we get it out when Coop informed us that it had been in his ear since we lived in TEXAS!!! Now we felt even worse about it! Ouch! What a bad way to bring some Texas to Idaho with you! Have no fears we got it out thanks to my brothers advice! Oh those boys!

Daddy & Chloe

Got in a Hurry to post

I got in a hurry to post that I didn't get all of the pictures up of Kobe's baptism! Here are some more of my beautiful family

Kobe's Special Day

I have been wanting so bad to post these pics of Kobe and his baptism. This was such a wonderful day I don't know how else to say it or what else I could say. Our family has been so blessed the past eight years to have Kobe is our lives. Kobe knows how to make you laugh, when you are sad he wants to be the first person to cheer you up. He loves all his family and loves to share the gospel with anyone! This year Kobe has grown so much in school he is doing wonderful! He is at a 4th grade reading level but his teacher sad that when he slowed down on the test he was more like a 6th grade level. This child has more knowledge about animals than I could think possible for an eight year old with a heart of gold for all of them! Thank you all that came and supported Kobe in this it really did mean a lot to him!

Go Speed Racer

Kobe had his first Pine Wood Derby the other night and thanks to the help and support of Kobes dad and grandparents we had a very successful evening! I am so proud of my little man, he showed such great sportsmanship to all the other racers and even when he took 2nd place he was so happy! Kobe teaches me something everyday about the wonderful in all, and for that I am truly grateful he is our son! WAY TO GO KOBE!

New Puppy

WEll, I have to say that I have fallen in love with a new man his name is Cash. This is our new puppy and I have to say he is the most adorable little thing! Jeff and I have so much fun with him the kids enjoy him too when I let him out of my sight!

Got the Computer Fixed

Yes! We finally got the computer fixed and the internet hooked up! It is so nice to be able to sit down and look at all the blogs that I read and follow (don't worry Chloe is asleep) So now I will be able to post pictures and get ya'll caught up on the Felde family! Now if I could only change my background......

Freezing in Idaho

So I knew that it would turn cold here eventually but I forgot how much I hate the cold. Now mind you it is not even the coldest that is going to be here I am thinking my fingers are going to freeze off will I am typing. So all you Texans go ahead and say I told you so now because this will not be the last time that you will read my complaints about the cold! So I have some fun news to share.... Jeff got a new job, I wish that I could explain what he will be doing but I am not really sure all I know that it has to do with computers. Yeah! Another really fun thing is that I finally have a start date on my job so now I can really start the panic of how am I going to balance it all! The kids are doing great, really I say that all the time but really the boys love school and Carter loves being home with me now I will say Chloe is having a good day today, at least so far she hasn't colored on anything, flooded my kitchen or made any huge messes but the day is young. Deep breaths seem to help...for right now!

I will miss you Granny J

For those of you who knew my grandma knew what a wonderful woman she was. She had this laugh that made all of us laugh, a smile that made you feel like you were the most important person in the world and a hug that made you feel that no matter what just happened it would be okay. About a month ago my uncle and aunt called to tell my sister and I that Grandma didn't have much longer to live so we packed up and headed to Utah to see her. I will cherish the fact that I was able to see her one more time and to hug her and tell her that I love her. On Friday morning I got a call that she wasn't going to make it and she wanted to talk to all of her grandchildren one last time. So I called her and I couldn't speak and I didn't want to her to hear me crying so I just listened and she told me that she loved me and that she would watch over me and my children ( she even named them one by one) and told me goodbye. Our Heavenly Father gave her an hour of peace to be able to be our granny J and make each and every single one of us special in our own mind and heart. My mom is so sad right now because she is was not there and all I want to do is find a way to make her hurt to stop and show her that we all love her and we support her and my dad and it is okay because one day thanks to the plan of salvation she will be with my grandma again, and they will be laughing and arguing together just like the old times. I am sorry that the world had to loose you Grandma and not everyone will get to love you as rest of us did but I am so happy that you are free of pain and that you and Grandpa are together, and everyone in Heaven is enjoying your love.

September 2008

I know that lately I haven't been able to update as much as I would like to, and hopefully soon I will be able to get Internet to do it, if not I will start making the drive to my father in laws house to update maybe with some pictures too! This past month has been pretty busy, the boys started school so it is just Carter and Chloe at home with me for right now. I will be started work in the next week. I accepted a job at Bio Life it is a plasma donation center. I am not poking people yet, but I can't wait to learn! I will be checking our donors in, taking a blood sample, weighing them, take there blood pressure, heart rate and breath test. I am excited to be in the adult world but I also feel so guilty leaving my two babies.....hopefully I can figure it all out! Jeff is still in limbo waiting to hear from a couple places about a job with them. The kids are still enjoying being here and love there new school, they have made lots of friends and there were amazed that they go to church and school with them. Kobe is in second grade, I know yikes! Cooper is in first! J. Carter just missed the deadline for kindergarten so we are doing home school pre school! I really enjoy that time that we get to sit and work on work books and read together and I love watching him and Chloe color together, Carter gets so mad at her when she just scribble scrabbles! Chloe just stays at home and yes still is naughty! I have to laugh because I read past post and I read that I just say she is naughty and I am sure that you think that I am making things up but until you spend a day or two with her and experience the wrath of Chloe you will understand and now instead of telling everyone to shut up it now is suck it....oh proud of a mother I am.

I snuck over to my mother in laws to use her computer to give an update since it has been a while! ( Don't worry she knows I am here!) WE don't have Internet yet so I really don't get to update as much as I use to, check the Burgies blog my sister has been awesome to update with pictures of my kids! Speaking of kids, they are doing great! They love the new house, and are excited to start school to meet some new friends! They really miss Texas but, I have explained it has changed so much and so many people have moved away, so hopefully the loneliness will wear off soon.
Jeff is still awaiting to find out when he starts Police Academy, hopefully soon. I am doing good and enjoying the nice summer with the kids. I will try to update a lot sooner with pictures but till then just check my sisters she will keep you updated!

So I have been told.......

So I have been told that I am really bad at keeping this page updated since I have moved to Idaho! (thanks mom) So while I am waiting for another load of laundry to dry I will give a quick update sorry no pictures! The next week or two is going to be super busy because we are moving!!! Yeah we found a house and we are moving in on Thursday! I will get pictures up as soon as I can of it because I love it and I can't wait to show everyone! Jeff is still working for the Chevrolet dealership and is doing good, I love the phone calls that say I just sold a car (or Truck) ! The kids have one more week of school and then it is summer time! Good thing we have a big fenced backyard! I started up my bow business and it took off with a bang! We will have a web site up soon so you will have to check it out! Well, the dryer just buzzed and I have to take a load of stuff to our house!

So Kobe has taken on the sport of wrestling..... I have mixed emotion about the whole idea of my baby being "beat up" by another little boy but Jeff thinks it is a good idea and Kobe enjoys it so far. He won third place in his second tournament that he was in. We are off to Pocatello for another tournament this weekend!

Maybe spring is here????

Yesterday we had a sort of nice day here in the great land of Idaho! Don't get me wrong I love the fact that we live back here, it is just that I miss the beautiful spring in Texas! I know that we would have the pool out on the driveway already and I would be working in the yard. I am trying to convince my mother in law to let me plant a garden at her house but she knows that I am moving soon so she doesn't want to take the responsibility of a garden on, dang! Maybe we will be in our house soon so that I can plant a garden in my own yard! I will just need my brothers help, both of my brothers have inherited the "Long" green thumb and have been able to grow anything like my great grandpa Long. Here are some pictures of the kids playing outside. My father in law has enjoyed having his grandkids around, the house got really quite yesterday while I was folding laundry so I got worried and went looking for the three boys. I looked out the window and saw them with Grandpa outside swinging, jumping on the tramp and feeding the horses, so after Chloe's nap we went outside with them to enjoy the rest of the afternoon!
