Easton lost his first tooth this past week. He was excited about it and liked having the tooth fairy come. This was the first of many loose teeth we will be having at our house over the next several years.

Back to School
Easton is back at Mintonye and in the 1st grade. He has really adjusted well, and loves this school year.
Brady is in Pre-K...
...and Jaylee is in Preschool 2.
Both Brady and Jaylee are still at Village Nursery School.

He is as nice as he is cute!
This is what happens when you have lots of little kids in your house and only one bathroom.
Riley's parents have some peach trees and they had lots of peaches this year. We froze a bunch of them, but I also made some pies. Brady loved helping to make the pie, and has been asking to make more. I am also excited because I was finally successful with making my Grandma Waterbury's pie crust.
So far this school year, Brady has found it hilarious to put sad faces on all of his crafts. He is really funny, but I sometimes I just don't know what do with him.
Turkey Run State Park
We had a free Saturday, so we packed a lunch, and headed over to Turkey Run. I loved having all of our family together and hiking. We probably hiked for over two hours and the kids did great!
Happy Birthday Riley
Riley turned 35 this year. We did the usual celebrations of dinner and cake with family. This year he wanted a new watch, sunglasses, and an electric razor.

I just love the view in my backyard!
After my mom and I finished running a 5k we found out that they were also having a free kids run. It was short, but my kids loved doing it. I hope they always enjoy exercise.
Sweet Chewy
It is obvious that Easton's Papa is an entomologist. The other day he came home from school with two library books about insects and a baggie with a cicada shell that he found on the playground.
I know how to knit a dish cloth, but this is the first scarf that I have ever knit. I am really happy with how it turned out!
Garden -- 2013
I was able to freeze plenty of green beans this year.
Cilantro always seems to do well in my garden. We bagged most of it up and froze it.
We had huge zucchini plants, but they didn't really produce that much fruit.
Cucumbers, Tomatoes, and Zucchinis
My mom and I made some pickles about a month ago. They turned out quite tasty, but the spears were a little soft. However, the slices taste great on sandwiches!
I did red potatoes this year, and they did great! For the last month and half, I have just been sending Riley out to the garden to dig whenever I need potatoes.
Root Vegetables
We're Having Baby #4
Yep, I'm pregnant! Gibb baby #4 is due on March 1, 2014.
At 8 weeks pregnant, my mom and I did the Zoo Run Run 5K. My time was 28:16, which is slower than my last race, but still great considering I was newly pregnant.
12 weeks
At 15 weeks, Riley and I took a trip to the temple.

My dad turned 69 this year! We celebrated by taking him to a Mexican restaurant. I can't believe he is almost 70!
I love watching my boys play golf together.
Pool Time
The other day I found my two boys playing chess. Riley has taught them young!
Easton and Chewy sure know how to relax.
Picnic at the Park
Gibb Reunion 2013
We were lucky enough to have all of Riley's family in town over 4th of July weekend. We did lots of fun activities. The photo from above was a sunflower house party that we did at my garden. Every year I love growing my sunflowers. It was fun to watch the kids enjoy having a little picnic in my sunflower house.
This is 9 of the 11 Gibb grandkids. They vary in ages from 7 years to 6 months.
Everyone went camping one night at a local state park. The kids had so much fun getting to play with their cousins and not having to go home to go to bed. Riley had to work, so I hooked up, drove, and set up our camper by myself (with a little help from the kids). I was pretty proud of myself!
The day after we camped we were able to play at a water park located near the campground.
All 11 Gibb grandkids; it's quite the crew!
Hot tub time!
These three were all born in 2010, so it is fun to get pictures of them together.
