Lisa's fiance', Eric, helping Shanna use the sights on his gun
Everyone having a great time shootin' the guns. We had shotguns, pistols, etc. and two boxes of skeets. Can you spell fun?
Even Robert's mom came out and tried Eric's little gun. But he accidentily pinched her thumb while helping her cock it back and as you can see, she wasn't expecting it! She was a real trooper!
Sammy having a great time with Great Grandma Smith
Sammy loving being with his Daddy!
Robert and his little bro Kurtis struttin' their stuff with the pistols
Sammy has really grown to love his little car and has become more confident in his walking
Sweet Sammy giving us one of his award-winning smiles......or maybe just heart-winning! :)
Robert in his element on his Yamaha 450 motorcycle. The boys spent the morning "riding bikes" while the women prepared the feast
Sammy discovered Grandpa's foot massager last night and was having a great time playing with the knobs that rotated in different directions!
Looks like the scene from Willy Wonka where Violet's dad is eating the red rope, doesn't it?
Eating Auntie Shanna's headphones - a real treat!
Sweet dreams
This is how my sweet little guy fell asleep on me yesterday, so cute!!
This is Sammy trying out some of the toys they have out at Sam's Club for Christmas
We have been enjoying our visit with Grandma and Grandpa Skousen out in Hyder, Arizona where the weather reminds us of anything besides wintertime!
My little man! He loved this bouncey horse, but as you can see behind him, it's not going to be a present anytime soon!
Sammy has really been enjoying his little push car we got for him. As long as someone follows to redirect when needed, he will go around and around the house!! As for our good news, Robert has finally, after two months of unemployment, found a job! And it will be a very good one, too! We will be moving to Ririe, Idaho (by Rexburg) where Robert will be the assistant farm manager on a potato farm. The job provides a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house, health insurance for the family and a vehicle for Robert to drive to work! So many blessings have been poured out and we are grateful first and foremost to Heavenly Father and also to all those who have prayed and supported us during this trying time.

The back of the tank thing
The thing itsself. It looks like some sort of tank, but we weren't sure
The front end of the whole she-bang
It snowed today for the first time this season and Sammy just loved it!
Here, he has crawled over to the french doors and is licking the window because he is so excited about the huge snowflakes falling outside
He is such a happy camper, I love my little man!!It has been a while since we have bought Sammy a new toy and yesterday we were up by DI, so we went shopping for a new toy for Sammy. We came home with the perfect toy for the perfect price. We found a little car for $2 that Sammy can either ride, or it turns into kind of a push cart. Here is a little movie of him trying it out and as you can see, he absolutely loves it! Our little boy will be walking in no time, I can't believe it!
Our little pumpkin! He wouldn't look at the camer, he was having so much fun with the piano
Robert was a welder, Sammy was a pumpkin, I was a bloody nurse, Daniel was a ninja and Matt was a knight
Here's all of us again. Later we were joined by April and John who were 80's peeps and Candace, who was a dead "Where's Waldo" who had been found by the mafia. Yeah, we had a great time!
Oma and Sammy at the piano
Sammy was so excited to be a pumpkin and go trick-or-treating. His first was pretty fun, I think with uncles and aunts dressing up as well!
