About Tree Time

The Thorsted's have finally bought a tree!! We have looked and looked and looked. And finally this year we found a tree that we liked and hey the price wasn't too bad either. The kids had a blast digging in the dirt and helping Nate. The next day after we planted the tree Camden wanted to know if we could go and plant another one. So it's nice to say we are finally the proud parents of a Red Sunset Maple tree.

The finished project!!

Time for school

So Camden is loving preschool, but I think Carter is getting a little jealous that Camden gets to leave and go have fun and wear a awesome book bag. Camden got a little book bag a couple years ago for his birthday and Carter has become a little attached with it. Every morning when Camden goes to put on his book bag Carter has to grab the other one and put it on thinking I wont realize and he will also get to stay at school. I'm sure he doesn't realize I've tried to leave him but for some reason the teacher notices that Carter isn't quit old enough to be there.

Looks who's 4!!!

We are proud to welcome our big, crazy, hyper 4 year old Camden. What a fun little boy he is. We are so proud he is in our lives. He makes everything so much funner. Yes he drives his mother crazy and yes he thinks his dad was only put here on earth to wrestle with him. But what can we say We Love him, and wouldn't change anything about him. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAMDEN.

We did a combined b-day party for Camden and his cousin Hayden. Camden thought that was pretty big stuff.


We took Camden to the Dino Park on his b-day, he had a blast. He is obsessed with T-REX.


Cake number 2!! He's into Star Wars right now. But I think only cuz they fight and they have light savors.

The best present Camden thought he got. Way to go Uncle Scott and Aunt Megan.

As usually Megan out did her self, what fun cakes she does for the kids. Thanks again.

Sept already?

Nate and I canned 30 quarts of stewed tomatos with the tomatos from our garden.

What a stud my Carter is

**How time flies when your having fun, and your internet isn't working. For the past few weeks we have had no internet it has been so hard not to check out everyone else's blog and update my own. We have been keeping busy needless to say, and have been of course camping and having fun.

What a fun family trip we had this summer. We've been on many trips this year, but this one by far was the funniest. This year the last week of June we drove with Nate's family all the way to South Dakato. (**The driving part was not the funniest by the way, but we survived the 12 hour drive) We had a great time seeing Crazy Horse, Mt.Rushmore, Big Thunder Gold Mine, Jewel Cave, and lot of Animals. Nate, Camden and I even went on a Helicopter ride. Camden had the biggest grin the whole time. I thought that was the best part. If you ask Camden what the funniest part was He'll say "Swimming in the swimming pool" I then reply with "Yeah Camden that was fun, what was your second favorite part" And Camden's reply "Dunking my head under the water" So much for all the other wonderful things we did and saw, the water was his favorite.

Great shot of Crazy Horse taken in the Helicopter


Camden's face the whole time during our ride.

This is right before we jumped in for our ride.

Seeing Mount Rushmore

Air show

The first part of June Hill Air Force base had their air show!! I had to work the pre show and seeing how awesome it was, we went back the next day with Camden so he could check everything out. The jets were so amazing and I'm not sure who was more excited Camden or Nate. Needless to say we had a great time and can't wait for it to come again.

Love this picture!! Camden thought this helicopter was so cool!! And nate was very fond of the gun. LOL

Happy Birthday Carter!!! 6-11-09

I just can't believe my baby is 1. How time flies when you are chasing kids around and having a blast. We had family over and celebrated Carter turning one. He had a blast and loved all his toys.



And of course even the big kids want to help and play with Carters toys.


"I'M A BIG DEAL"

Gotta love the cake!!

By the end of the cake eating he was licking the plate and his whole face was black.
