the fly whisperer

Jaden has this off talent. He can catch flies with his hands. Its really interesting to watch but also very gross. He stands there and slowly follows them and grabs it. He has no patience but when it comes to that he has tons. Tyson said his grandpa used to do that. I will have to video tape it sometime.

rolling over

Yesterday Jessica came over to go to the lake with us. She got natalia ready and was talking on the phone and natalia rolled over! I missed it, Jessica tried to get her to do it again but she didn't like it so she wasn't going to do it again.

the many adventures of jaden arnold

A couple of weeks ago the bishop asked jaden I'd he was going to go on a mission. Jaden sai "no, I'm going to be a firework like Skyler." great the bishop thinks we aren't teaching jaden that it is important to go on a mission. We tried to talk to him later and told him that his uncles have gone on missions and told him Skyler went on a mission to. He got quite frustrated and told us that he wanted to be a firework like Skyler. He still tells us that. Its kind of like Nathan wanting to drive an icecream truck when he wants to grow up. Jaden is going to be really upset when he finds out you can't be a firework but you can light fireworks.

Oregon Ducks

Amber got Natalia some Oregon duck onesies for christmas when I was pregnant. Everytime we wear them outside someone says "your wearing the wrong color". Whatever.

Natalia in Her Blessing Dress

I wanted some better pictures of Natalia in Her dress. They turned out pretty good I think for someone who isn't the best at cameras. I forgot to put her bracelet on her but I really wanted everyone to see how cute she looked in the dress. She is so photogenic.

Drakes and Games

I don't know if it's a Morgenegg thing or a Drake thing but we are crazy game players. As you can see from the pictures we had to fuel up during skipbo for the next and final game of pounce. Chad decided he was going to try and shuffle the large deck of cards. He actually did pretty good. Once we got to pounce (which Stefan and I won) Stefan was working so hard for our team he got a bloody nose and he had to keep on playing so he sucked it up and played with a tissue in his nose. I think he played faster that time so that we didn't have any leaks.

Natalias Dress

My mom made Natalias blessing dress and it was exactly what i wanted. I hope the pictures did their justice. I had fun playing around trying to make them look good. The dress was gorgeous.

Natalias Blessing Continued

Natalias Blessing

We had so many people come for her blessing. It was so nice to see all the family together. She was given such a special blessing. We knew that Natalia had a purpose for being her becuase of the way she came into this world, but her blessing confirmed that. Her blessing said she has a special purpose on this earth and that she will be a light to the world. I don't want her to grow up but I am anxious to see what she will become and everything she will do in her life. We love her so much and we appreciate all of you who were able to make it. For those of you who were unable we missed you but were thinking of you.

Merry Go Around

More fourth of July

My family came into town and we went to the splash park. Amber got fried and the hats I got her are still all to big. We had fun.

fourth of july

We went to two days of fireworks. We went to Rigby Lake on the 3rd and got a pretty good show for a little town. Then, on the Fourth we whent to the river in idaho falls and watched the big show they put on. They were really good and we got a spot so close the ashes were all over us. My brothers seemed to enjoy it. I believe this was the loudest firework show I have ever been to. Natalia slept through the whole thing and jaden got bored. Tyson got hima blue sno cone and it turned his mouth bright blue. It was so funny.
