Happy Birthday

Paxton turned 3 years old on the 22nd. It was a great time with family. Everyone came to celebrate, have dinner and of course birthday cake. This year I decided to I was going to make Paxton's birthday cake. We had gotten him a Tonka bike and so I decided to make his cake with tonka toy cars. I think it turned out pretty cute and it tasted delicious also. Paxton got a lot of cool gifts this year. Grandma gave him some books, coloring books and also some digging toys for outside. Grandpa and Teresa gave him a couple of bigger kid games, he got a wheelbarrow and shovel from Grammy and papa, and also a bike helmet from his Auntie Kris and cousins. Thanks everyone for coming and having a great time with us.
Chad and I celebrated our 4th anniversary yesterday. We did not really get a chance to do anything yesterday because it was a Wednesday and we had church, so we will be going out to dinner on Friday to celebrate. It is hard to believe that it has only been 4 years since we said 'I Do' but it seems like forever to me since we already have two kids.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Lets go daddy

Beautiful Idaho mountains
Me cooking breakfast

Then Kass caught me taking a well deserved nap cooking takes it out of me

Paxtons Fish

Wow Dad this fishing sure is boring lets go play in the dirt.
I don't see the point we are just standing here looking at the water holding this fishing pole I think we should go run and play
Wow that was fun I love fishing
Cool look at my fish every one
Yep I told you I love fishing

Camp Fire School

I thought it would be good that Paxton know how to build a fire so this is fire starting 101.
First you find a bunch of really dry wood and break it up in really small pieces and make sure there is plenty of dry needles.
Grab a match and Light it then stand WAY WAY Back
Yep thats how you do it. Hope Paxton doesn't practice at home ha ha. We had a great time spending time around the camp fire in my opinion its the best part of camping just sitting around the fire not thinking of all the cares back home and really relaxing. It was good to get away Hope all of you are doing well
Chad and Family
Kass and Tessa Enjoying the camp fire

No New Happenings

Well the house is coming along. I know that it has been a while since I last posted. Sorry. Life here at the Mitchell house hold has not really changed much. Chads birthday was on Sunday and Paxtons will be in two weeks from Friday. Chad and I will also be celebrating our 4th anniversary on the 27th. Chad and I have purchased a fifth wheel trailer and are planning a camping trip for next week. I am really looking forward to it because I think we all need some time away. Chad has been working long hours up in Rexburg for the past month and a half and today was his last day up there. Yea!!!
Like I said the new house is really coming along. It is completely framed in and the well has been drilled. Today I went out and met the cabinet maker to see how much cabinetry I wanted in the kitchen and also so the plumbers could finish doing their part. Sorry I don't have any new pictures. I will try and get some posted a little later.
