GOING PRIVATE

Hello friends and family! I have emailed my contact list letting
them know that our family blog will be going private,
but if you are a regular follower of our blog, and would like to
continue to be... please email me at: klingler2003@hotmail.com
with your email address so I can invite you on over!

Our kids are the most important thing in the world to us,
and to keep them safe in this ever deteriorating world, we would
like to only share all their tid bits with family and friends!Thanks for understanding!

Snow Snow, go away.

Had to post, just because he's a beautiful boy!

{a few days before Easter. He was worried there would be no Easter egg hunts because of the snow!}

Easter Preparations

It was the night before Easter, and all through the house.....


Grandma and Grandpa Bowen were visiting and we colored our eggs!!!
(and Payton got his Easter gift from them EARLY! SPOILED!!! haha)


My mom is an artist!!!
A clever one too. We had two cracked eggs that we didn't dye.
So she drew these fabulous, quirky faces on them!
AREN'T THEY A CRACK UP? (snicker!)



as big as I wanna be!

Surprise! I'm behind on my blogging. GO FIGURE!
Anywho-

This little cutie is growing up so fast!
{this photos is from the end of March- sorry for the delay}
I walked in to get little Owen after his nap and found him standing for the first time! Oh, time flies. I don't like it!!WHERE IS MY BABY??

Anyway- despite the serious face... he was really proud of himself and was all smiles when I came in.
Then I ran to get my camera, which he eyed warily {i think he's already sick of it!}



Doesn't he have a precious face?
Being a mom is the best!!!!

SUGAR AND SPICE

While in Boise, snapping pics at my grandparents, I caught sight of my soon-to-be sister-in-law, Keli's cute shoes. Purple with ruffles, what girl wouldn't love em? So, what did I do? TOOK A PIC!!! Kinda silly, but I think it turned out quite cute! Its one of my favorite edits this week, and i experimented with a sunflare action from COFFEE SHOP, and I LOVE what it can do! CHECK IT OUT, all Rita's actions are FREE!!!






CALLED TO SERVE

My paternal Grandparents are heading out to Africa on Tuesday {check out the previous post!} and I wanted to show a couple pics of the WHOLE FAMILY{minus a few}! {we were missing Tim, Eric and Cason- darn it all!- Missed you guys!!!}
I didn't try to do anything creative with the photos, my goal was PURELY to get everyone in ONE PLACE long enough to get a decent photo- so composition isn't the greatest, posing, etc- but the memory is PRICELESS!
Grammy and Grandpa- SURE LOVE YOU GUYS! God be with you!



Grammy and Grandpa Bowen with their grandkids (minus Eric and Cason) and their spouses.

With Children, Grandchildren, and Great-Grandchildren

Oh, precious!!! Here are all the great-grand kids, plus the NEW BABIES! This one turned out PERFECTLY! I was really surprised we were even able to get everyone rounded up and NOBODY WAS CRYING! Yay.

ENJOY!


THE BOWEN FAREWELL

My Grandma and Grandpa Bowen are going on another mission to Africa, so we were all able to get together as a family for a yummy lunch and a fun visit! Snapped a few pictures so they would have some memories to cherish while they are there!









































RE-INVENTING
