Future Bishop Hooge

Today our Stake President talked about raising our kids upright. He then proceeded to talk about young children. He said that we need to teach the gospel to the little ones ...."there is the future Bishop Hooge sitting on his Dad's lap forcing a bag in his Dad's mouth" Hudson was then playing with a bag full of Cheerios, thinking it was funny to put the bag in his Dad's mouth. Our kids got a kick out of it.

Hudson is ready to go!

Harrison just loves to ride with his Dad on the motorcycle.

Hailey can ride a motorcycle all by herself.

This is the closest you will see Hayden to any motorcycle... he is a little too cautious for that. :)

My family came into town last weekend. We had a lot of fun. Here are a few pictures of us hiking in Cathedral Gorge. There are some fun hikes around here. It's nice to have a lot of places to enjoy the outdoors here.

Here is a picture of my kids, a few of my sisters, my mom and brother-in-law with his 3 kids. 

The kids and I went with a play group to a local farm. The kids had a lot of fun and they even got to bring home an egg. The kids thought that they could bring them home and hatch them so we could have baby chicks. The boys were disappointed when they both dropped and broke their eggs at home (the same day), Hailey however is still checking on her egg to see if it has hatched yet. They are so cute.
