The Bear at Grandma Tabors!

Eli had seen the picture of the Georgeson boys running from the Bear in grandma's basement. He really wanted to see the bear. I told him it was Bryce's pet bear and he would have to wait until Bryce was there to see him.




The time finally came. It was funny because Eli had remembered the picture for at least a month. When he heard Bryce The first thing he ask him was to see his bear.







He was sitting at the top of the stairs waiting


We also had Coby and Devon's attention.





The were for sure interested in what was going on.









Devon didnt want to go downstairs.

Eli was being very brave at first. He was almost to the bottom step and then he started back up the stairs.

We talked Devon into walking down with Eli. When the bear came around the corner They both tried to head back up the stairs.

Here they are getting to look at it and so they wouldn't be scared of Grandmas house.

The family had all arrived.

Here is Frank, Jordan, and Anthony. Playing pool
and hanging out while we were preparing for the funeral.


















Here is Devon, Eli, Jordan, Grandma, and Grandpa.

We went to the forest to climb the tower. This was a fun trip. Here is Candein and Grandpa C.

We went to the tower out at the forest.

Here is a picture of Candein and her dad.

this was a fun trip.

This Year Didn't start very good!

We had just returned from our Christmas vacation. We were just starting to settle back into a normal routine when Cads mom called with some sad news. The night of January 4th She told us that Grandpa had a stroke and they were life flighting him to Broken Bow. We sat tight for the night and waited it out to see what we would need to do.

The next morning I started getting grandma J ready to go back to moms so we could head to Nebraska. This was going to be a long trip. Cad came home from work early and we left as soon as the boys came home from school.






The afternoon of the 5th after we had a chance to rest a little Devon and Grandpa C were trying to teach uncle Larry to play xbox. This was fun to watch.




We had people stopping by left and right bringing in food and some of them were family, as they were arriving. Crystal stopped by to bring us a cake.



Brandy Cads cousin loves Crystal and they had a great time talking together.

We went over to the cafe/bar that grandpa ran and the boys played pool while we were waiting for lunch.

This is a good pass time in the village.

Sitting on the stove is grandpa's coffee cup where it always sat.

Helping Jenny and Derek!!

We left our vacation a little early sowe could help Jenny and Derek move into their New Home.










They have a beautiful home.
Eli was trying to help with everything most of it was to big or heavy for him, but he sure put alot of effort into helping.

They had lots of help soo the loading the truck and unloading the truck went very quickly.

We then let the kids go to Ali's and play together while we helped put things away and helped set up what we could to help.

We love the house and are lookin forward to visiting again.

Bear lake!

This year we went on a little vacation for Christmas time.

We had a lot of fun sledding, swimming and playing games.




Although even on vacation there is still work to do.
Coby wasn't very happy about this part of the trip.


Eli didn't want to leave.
It was a great break from everday life and a lot of fun being able to swim whenever we want.

Family Fun!!

Leo's Place

We all got together and had a ton of fun with the play place and the laser tag.

This was a great thing for all of us to do together.

I really enjoyed getting together with everyone and letting all of the kids run and play.

What number is for who!

For the last few years we have used numbers on all the presant to keep the kids from knowing which presant is their presant. This also keeps them from messing with them.

They started writing down any number they could see to try to figure out what the code was foe each kid. This is good entertainment for us as the parents.

Coby was elected to write down the numbers!

Eli loves to comb his hair!

Eli loves to comb his hair. He is very funny. He runs in to the bathroom combs his hair and then comes out and showes it to all of us.

This is one of his favorite ways to comb his hair.

Happy Birthday Will!!

Will wanted us to make him a cake. We spent the night before at Grandma and Grandpa Tabors. We all arrived back at home late thenight before, so I made him the kitty litter cake.
Headed back to grandmas the next day for lunch.
Bryce decided to cover the cake with a paper towel so he could make a sandwich. The cake looked to real for him to be able to eat while it was sitting on the counter.

We all really enjoyed the cake and the family fun.

Devons has glasses!

Devon has to wear glasses. He was so excited to get them.
I think he looks so cute with them on.

Apples! Apples! Apples!

Thanks to moms friend Audrey we were able to pick apples to make pie filling.











The boys and I went and picked apples for about an hour. We filled the back of the Danali. I was glad it only took us an hour to get more than enough apples.



















With lots of work ahead of us the boys jumped right in and started helping. Eli loved running the peeler.

















We worked for a couple of days to get all of the apple pie filling made. Thanks to a lot of hard work from all of us involved. The pie filling turned out delicous.



look at all of the full jars! Yummy!

The cheese balls are finally all gone.

I think grandma J and Eli really enjoyed them. Eli wants to keep this container.

Devons last football game!

This is the award Devon earned at the last football game. He is looking forward to next year.

He wants to play tackle football really bad.



That is all he talks about.

First snow of 2011 !!

This was the first snow of the season. We only ended up in about 1 inch of snow.

Grandma and I were the only ones home.


Cad took all the boys for the weekend to go hunting with his dad in Nebraska.

They were a little sad the missed the snow but we all know how it snows here we will have plenty of snow before we know it.

Devon's mess

The night before my surgery: Devon was suppose to be taking a shower. Instead of taking a shower he decided to make a mess.















He then had to clean it up.





Is the house going to survive 6-weeks of the boys cleaning while I am taking it easy?
