Happy Thanksgiving

Yesterday we celebrated Thanksgiving at Phill and Carol's house. How in the world did we get so lucky? We are so thankful that we have a such a loving family. Happy Holidays. The Ringrose's.

Tristan the artist

Look what Tristan made last week in school. This one is going into a frame. Thank goodness someone in this house is artistic.

Go Cougs!!!

Yesterday we watched the Applecup at Chris and Larissa's. What an exciting game. Don't you just love Dennis' golf cart? It's too bad that they did not win. Maybe next year?

Baby Ella is getting so big. It's hard to believe that she will be a year in Feb.

A fun day at the park

Yesterday was such a beautiful day. Phillip and I took the boys to the park. I wish that we had more crisp days like that.

After a long day, Tristan crashed in his car seat. Don't you just love his hat? He thinks that he is a rock star.

Hunting 2008

Daddy is home and he brought us back a "big buck" so say's Tristan. It's so nice to have him back safe and sound. Uncle Mike, Uncle Jimmy, and DJ also had some good luck.
Here is a picture of Phillip's buck. Tristan kept asking "why uncle Jimmy's buck so small"

Where it all started....

Today, I decided that it was time to clean out my inbox. I came across the link listed below. For those of you that have not seen this, I created them last year. I can't believe how fast the time has gone by. It's time to give them both an update. As I watch (just like the first time) it brings tears to my eyes. I am so thankful to have such healthy boys, a wonderful husband, a loving family and numerous friends. I just don't say it enough. Enjoy this as much as I do.

Rainy day

Will the rain ever go away? To think that this is only the beginning.

Tristan looks so big to me in this picture.

Halloween 2008

Last night we went trick or treating around our neighborhood. Talk about a sugar high. Those kids got so much Candy. We had so much fun and the kids did a great job.

Pumpkin Carving 2008

We had another successful year carving our pumpkins. Uncle Mike had to work, we sure did miss him.

It looks like Phillip was having more fun than the kids.

Di's 40th Birthday/Halloween Party

Last night we went to Di's 40th Birthday/Halloween party. I was dressed up as an angel (didn't get any pictures). We had so much fun. Thanks Di for having such a fun party.

Pumpkin Patch 2008

Those boots are made for "mud puddles"

Love that pose
Ready, set, go!!!!

Smile!

Oh, Canyon, you look so cute!

COUSINS!!!!

Today we took the boys (and Madalyn Rose) to the Pumpkin patch. Thank goodness Maddi and Tristan wore their boots. The most fun that they had was running through the mud puddles.
We ran into our cousins from Seattle (Matt, Tracy, and Lila). It was so nice to have seen them.
Phillip and Tristan also tried out the sling toss.
Canyon was an angel. Enjoy the pictures.

Fishing Trip Oct 08

Good job daddy!!! We are so proud of you. Can't wait until we can BBQ.

Bubbles and more bubbles

Gavin asked me to pour in some more bubble bath soap, so I did. As you can tell from the pictures, they had a blast.

Tristan

Tristan takes the best pictures. Sorry to brag, but he has the most beautiful eyes. He is going to drive the girls crazy.

Getting ready for bed

The boy's look so cute in their winter pajamas. It's hard to believe that the Summer is over. I kind of like the fall. However, I am not looking forward to the COLD mornings. Thank goodness Phillip bought me a self starter for the Tahoe (2 years ago, I finally got it installed last Dec).

Cabelas

We visited Phillip's favorite store last week. Tristan just had to try on his daddy's new backback. In nine years Tristan will be joining his dad and uncles on opening day.

A few updates

Boys will be boys. So much for wearing a hat. At least it was a brand new pair of underwear.

Last weekend we went to Alyson and Paul's wedding. It was so much fun. Kind of like a high school reunion. We are so happy for the love birds. What a beautiful wedding. Here's to Mr. and Mrs. Spaulding.

Happy Birthday Poppa Phill.
