Kittens

Our sweet little kittens have reached the ripe old age of 6 weeks and are now ready to go to a good home. If you or anyone you may know want a kitten let me know. They are both litter box trained and eat kitten food.They both have amazing blue eyes. The all black one is a boy, and the calico one is a girl. They are kid friendly, and a great addition to the family.

Some Fun Times With Cousins

My brother Mark and his family came down from Montana for a few days. It was so great to see them and good to get a chance to hang out. I wish they had come down for better reasons. We are sorry for your lost at this time. We hope the best for the family. Ray was a great man and will truly be missed. I am glad we were able to help out by hanging out and letting the kids have some time together. While they were here we took them to Pumpkin Land to play. They seemed to have a lot of fun.




After we were done with all the activities we let the kids pick out a pumpkin and then when we got home they were able to paint them. It was fun to see them get creative. Even Parker got in on the action.




HEE HAWS

On Wednesday I was very brave and took the boys to Hee Haws. Of course I would never do this alone. I had the help of my wonderful In-Laws. I told Kathy(mother in-law) that I could not do it unless she was there to help. I did not get to go last year because I was at work. So of course this year Korey was at work. But it was really fun. We got there kind of early so it was not crowded at all. The boys had a lot of fun playing with all the animals. Plus anything involving there cousins is always fun to them.






They also loved the slide. Until the cranky work lady came and gave us rules on how we could go down the slide. Then it was not as much fun going down.





They had a fun hay ride, and even a fun little kids train ride. They sat in these little animal type cars and got pulled around the grounds. The kids thought that was really fun too.





Thanks Guys for the fun time. We need to hang out more often!!!

Ryan Was Tagged!

My Niece Macy tagged Ryan. I am suppose to say 5 things you may not know about my Sweet Little Ryan.

#1-Him and Preston are only 15 months apart(not planned to be that close).

#2-He has a very evil laugh when he is causing trouble.

#3-He has a very special blanket that he carries all around the house and takes to bed. We have been trying to get him to get a new one. But he loves his old worn out blanket.

#4-He loves to going to preschool.

#5-He favorite show is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

*Ryan now Tags CoCo, Oliva, Brinley, Thumbalina, Hailey Jo.*

I've Been Tagged!

This was a fun tag. It is even better since the picture that came up is so funny! The rules are you go to your pictures file and you go to the 4th folder and then do the 4th picture. So mine is of Korey holding Ryan, and Preston standing close by. We had gone up to Strawberry that day to hang out with the family for the afternoon. The boys decided to swim in the lake. While we let the clothes dry off they ran around naked. This of course was 2 years ago. So they loved to run around naked at that age.

I now Tag Molly, Misty, Ashley H., Shalynn, Alyssa Larsen, and Leslie. Have fun!!!

My Funny 3 Year Old!

So we had a great afternoon of just hanging out after church. Korey was playing a card game with the boys. Ryan and Korey where on the same team. Ryan said to Korey "Dad we are going to kick THE butt at this game." A little bit later I guess the game was not going as well for them as it had been going at the start of the game. The next thing I heard from Ryan was "Daddy we are not kicking THE butt." I could not help but laugh. I love my boys!!!

It Is Over!!!

I am very happy to say that my wards "Souper Saturday" is offically over, and I could not be anymore relived than I am right now! Big SIGHHHHHHHH!!! Thank You to my Friend Holly who came over and did the greatest Gosple ABC books. Thank You once again to Misty for coming to my rescue and helping me set up, take down, anseweing crazy ladies qustions & concerns, and just putting up with my srtessed out attitude for the past week. Of course thanks to my Husband for also putting up with me and picking up where I was slacking while trying to do this crazy stuff. I fel like I am writing a speach for getting an award. But who cares thanks to everyone who came I hope you all had fun and got your crafts done. If you get any fun ideas for next year let me know. I already have 2 fun projects in mind.

Korey Is The Best!!!

So Yesterday during the "Souper Saturday" a sweet Sister in my Ward came up to me and asked if I could come in to Young Women's with a few other Sisters and talk about Marriage and the things to do to prepare for marriage. All right I thought sounds easy enough. Later that night she called and gave me some questions she would be asking. She told me to think about what to say. OK sounding a little more difficult. Then left a message this morning asking if I would bring a picture of our wedding day. So anyone who knows me, knows I am not one who likes to do public speaking. I have also always said I do not want to be a leader in YW's. Way to much emotion with all those girls. Must be why I have all boys. So today was a perfect example of why I do not want to do these things. I was feeling OK until the 2nd lady started to talk and I started to get way to emotional. Now how in the world I am I suppose to keep it together when everyone is already emotional. Let alone talk about how much I love my husband and how we got to where we are today. How he is just the most amazing person I know.(Once again getting emotional). Also how he is such awesome Father and friend. I am not one who can do these things. But it is over and I am sure I am a better person for doing this. But I do have to give my sweet husband props, because he is the best ever. Thank You honey for all do for me. I love you!!!

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

We here at the Larsen House are very grateful to our sweet friend Misty!!! I know it is only the 1st of October but I was getting a little bit nervous about finding Preston's costume. I took the boys out last night to go and get there costumes. We had Ryan's on hold at Old Navy (A.F. store of course). So that was not hard to get. Preston knew what he wanted and he was very specific about what he wanted. So I thought that it should have not been to hard. It was only the 1st of the month. Then there was McKay who had no idea. Well we went to 5 stores and no such luck. Everyone had the costume Preston wanted but not the right size. UGHHHHH! McKay would choose something and we would open it up and he would hate it. UGHHHHH! So after a few hours we had no costumes and a very upset 4 year old. Then this morning I started calling stores for Preston's costume and of course no one had the size. I was starting to think they did not make it that size. I even got on line. No not in his size. While I was at Target there was one their but of course to big. Well I bought it anyway in hopes I could make it fit. About an hour after we got home Misty called and said the Halloween store that we went to last night had one his size.She put it on hold for us and we ran over there as soon as we were done eating. Then of course we a had to run to Target and return the one I bought earlier. While we were there McKay tried on a few more and YES finally he decided on one. Whoopee. So we are set I am so glad. I have way to much going on later this month and that is just one less thing I have to worry about. Thank You so much Misty it fits perfectly!!! He is so happy. The whole time at the store he just kept saying how happy he was that Misty got it for him!

I Love This Kid!!!

How would it be to remember to enjoy life the way a one year old does. Even food is just a great reason to be happy. This boy brings so much fun to our house. He is defiantly going to keep us on our toes.
