Hurst Family News

I can't get over how much my wee #3 looks like his oldest brother.  See?  And he's not so wee.  He's trying to walk and will be one in 17 days.  THIS boy is almost 5 and will be starting school in two weeks. CRAZY!  "Mom, let's take pictures of each other taking pictures." I don't know how to get the pictures from Ian's camera however.  He inherited it from his great grandpa.   Now here's my sweet Landon Boy.  Growing by leaps and bounds.  Knows his ABCs, 123s and can recognize that L is for Landon that's good enough for me!  Here's one of the FEW pictures I took from our Family Reunion. We hiked Donut Falls and I had to stop to feed Charlie and got left behind.  (But I wasn't going to take him up there anyway) The rest of the gang headed UP the falls and even waded in the icy cold pool.    Droop Shot.   This is often how my boys play together.  Ian on the game boy but next t...

My tough boys all got Cars tattoos before working on Nena:   I asked Landon a week ago what he wanted to be for Halloween.   "AIRPLANE!"  "How about a Dragon?" (I happen to have this costume on hand from when Ian was a dragon... ) "No. AIRPLANE!" uh...ok.  Looks like he takes after Grandpa Wittwer in his love of airplanes. So yesterday morning I brought the cardboard boxes inside before it started raining (brilliant move on my part thank you) so I could have decent cardboard to work with to attempt an airplane.  Well the morning was hectic as usual and I was hoping to work on it during a certain big brother's nap (because he often likes to help and this mama gets frustrated with little helpers especially when they are not allowed near Ex-acto knives).  Then the wind picks up and POOF! the power is gone.  We waited for a few minutes to see if it would come back on....and nothing happened.  The quiet was nice--it's amazing how much noise ever...
