Well as you can probably tell I am new to this whole blogging thing. My first post was a success (see Beware the Bat :)! So to further my posting debuet, I will introduce our family...
Terry and I met in Feb. 1997 at Ricks College. It took much persistence and long suffering on his part but eventually I saw the light and we were married in the Portland Temple in May of 1998. Ten years and 4 of the cutest kids later, we find ourselves in Oregon. He is a business analyst for Jeld-Wen and I just started a preschool.
Dalyn is 7 and our oldest, he will be in 2nd grade this year. He loves school and really does well. He is quite the social butterfly, the only trouble he has in school is his "excessive talking."
Raegan is 5 and will start kindergarten. I can not believe she is that old already. Her and Dalyn are truly, bff's so she is excited to go to school with him this year. Her favorites are soccer, tea parties, swimming, and any craft. There is rarely a day she is not wearing something princess.
Ryan is 3 and our little crazy man. He has sustained more injuries in his short life then all of the other kids combined! He is the most adventurous and thus more prone to accident. He loves to sing and has a number of songs memorized, mostly hymns.
Graeson is 15 months and our little happy! She is our latest walker, taking her first steps only a month ago. She loves to look at her books and will dance to any music she hears including the phone ringing.
And then we have the dog. His name is Chance and he has yet to make my top 100 list of favorites. Terry brought him home when he was 12 weeks old and Graeson was only 9 days (AHHHHH, does he hate me?)We have been through much he and I, a number of shoes and dolls, hoses, about 20 feet of fence, a trampoline net and spring cover, many sheets and blankets being drug off the line and approximately 10lbs of dirt that I sweep off the floor every day, yeah he's the best!
The newest addition to our family is two kitties. We found them in a wood pile at my parents house. there were four, but that wasn't happenin' So the kids chose 2 they could not live without. Esme and Jack (both girls) are now about 5 months old. They pretty much take care of themselves so I think they can stay.
Anyway that is our family in a nut shell. I hope this is something I can keep up with so I can share my awesome family with you!

Hey Sara!
I'm so glad to see you blogging! I have been wondering what you've been up to, and it's glad to see some pictures of you and your cute kids!
Good luck with Chance. As an avid dog-lover, I just have to say, give it another year. That first year is the WORST. They really start to mellow out and become a bit more fun after that.

I have to say,love your blog title! Super cute. I kept wondering if you were gonna make a blog! I am so glad you did!
It's good to meet your younger kids. Remember when we each had ONE baby? I remember thinking-"What will our families look like years from now?" Now look at our big families just seven years later.
Love it! You have some great pictures up. Sounds like you guys had a great summer. We need to get together soon!
