New clothes

Enoch said, "look at my cool new fancy shirt!" It was a present from grandma Wilding.

Trying my new phone

So Jake and i got new phones and I figured I'd try out the blogger app.

Kids took this picture for their mom for mothers day

Updates!

We've had some fun the past few weeks!

Alice made it into the district science fair. She didn't place in the top 5 but we are SO proud of her efforts! She tested on the power of positive thinking and how it worked for or against physical strength.

 Enoch participated in the Easter Egg hunt put on by the city. He really enjoyed himself and loved the candy afterwords! Alice and Peter were with their dad but I bet they had a fun Easter time too!

 We go bees at our house now! Here's Peter and Jake helping my dad put them in their new hive homes. It's been really fun to watch them. Peter was really good too when one would land on him.

The kids got a rock polisher for Easter and on the last day when we finally were able to get them out, Jake and Peter dressed for the weather and bravely cleaned off the polished rocks.

Today Enoch has been acting silly. He did this all on his own. Such a silly boy!

And here's Jake just kinda being himself lol.

Updates

So I created a Black Friday e-mail for my work and I got the kids to model some cute animal hats for me. They had a blast. Alice said, "I've always wanted to be a model!" I got a lot of great comments about them too :)

Today we went to the Spiral Jetty. None of us had ever been there before but I think we chose a really great day to do it. It was SO pretty!

And P.S. Jake was never in Mexico lol.

Scary Things

So we walk the kids down to the bus stop every day and love to take Enoch with us. He enjoys the walk but we have discovered a few things he is really afraid of. One is when we throw big rocks into the canal down there. He is not a big fan if the big splash. Even though he does it in the tub all the time lol. The other thing that scares him is the school bus and the fact that Alice and Peter run towards it. On the first day he reached out his hand screaming as they ran off. As if to say "DON'T GET ON THE BUS!!" Jake and I had to console him. He's really excited to see them get off in the afternoons. So every day the bus stop is an adventure.

Yay Mobile!

I just got the Blogger app for my phone! Super cool!

There has been a lot going on with the Murphy Faction since I last posted.

Peter got baptized on August 8th. He was so excited! Jake did the baptizing and he did a super awesome job!

In the end of July we took a trip down south to Georgia and Alabama to pick up Alice and Peter from their dads. Enoch was not too bad for the drive down but he had a hard enough time that he and I flew back. He was a good baby on the plane and slept most of the time. We stayed and played with Warren and Micah and really had a blasty blast! Thanks a million you guys! I meant to send a card but didn't ever sit down and do it. But hey it's the thought that counts, right?

A couple of weeks ago I noticed Enoch had his first little baby tooth come in! We are now dealing with cranky Enoch as he gets in another one. That's no fun but I'm happy for the baby food stage to be over.

Last week was the Box Elder county fair. We all entered stuff in and all got at least one blue ribbon. Which was really fun. The best part I think was Peter got a "big blue" (sweepstakes) ribbon for a petunia he entered. He has always wanted a big blue ribbon and was so excited he almost cried when he saw it. It was really fun. I'm already working on something for next year.

Well that's about it for us. School started for Jake today and for Alice and Peter tomorrow. Lots of fun going on!
