Koehler Family
Est. July 17, 1999


This month Zack and I our celebrating our TENTH ANNIVERSARY. It's hard to believe that we have been married so long. He is the man I fell in love with so many years ago and he is still the man that I am head over heel's for. Even back when we were dating I could picture myself raising a family with this man. Here we are today with three beautiful little girls. I can't say it's always been easy juggling a family, career, bills, church callings, recreational activities, etc, but we have always found a way.

At the end of the day the only thing that matters is that I have my best friend to share it with.Thank you sweetie for all that you do for me!
Happy 10th Anniversary!

Celebrate our anniversary with us by checking out our slide show of LAS VEGAS. A huge thanks to Grandpa & Grandma Koehler and the Bowman Family for helping us with the girls. We couldn't have done it without you...

INTRUDER!

So while the girls and I were up to Green Canyon for the week, Zack called and told me we had an INTRUDER in the backyard. Well, come to find out it was this guy!

A ROCK CHUCK!
Zack was not about to let him destroy our backyard or tear up our beautiful garden so he decided to take some action. So he borrowed our neighbors high powered pellet gun and shot it in the head several times. Well, Zack said it just sat there looking at him so finally after awhile Zack decided to use something more powerful. Notice the arrows in the picture.
When we got home the girls asked daddy where the rock chuck was at now and they were disappointed to find out that he was laying in a land field somewhere.

Ocean in a Jar!

For activity day this week we had the kids paint with pudding and make an ocean in a jar. It was a fun activity, enjoy the pics!
Directions: Fill the jar 1/2 full of water and then add in 1-2 drops of blue food coloring (if desired). Then add in all sorts of sea shells, rocks, sand dollars, etc. Fill the remaining jar with OIL and then secure a lid on the top. Watch your kids enjoy finding their sea shells by looking into the blue ocean water.
















Have your kids paint a picture with pudding. When they are done let them enjoy licking their fingers!


Swimming In The Creek!

We went camping with some of our friends (Curry Family) this past weekend. The kids absolutely loved it and who knew that swimming in a freezing cold creek could be so much fun!



Mackee and her friend Trinity floating down the creek. It was so cold that they were the only two willing to submerge completely under water. They loved it!





I had to post this cute picture of Izzie. We had to put a bandanna on her head because she wouldn't keep a hat on and the sun was hot that day!

Happy Birthday America!

For activity day this week we celebrated America. We let the kids frost and decorate their very own cake. We turned on some patriotic music and away they went with the frosting and some fondant cutouts. It was cute to see them celebrate it like a real birthday!








I think we have some future bakers on our hands! Maybe that is why Heavenly Father blessed us with all girls. We could use a few more Betty Crocker's.
I am sure their future husbands will appreciate it!

No More Training Wheels!

Mackee has officially learned how to ride her bike without training wheels. It took lots of practice thanks to the help of her daddy, but she finally figured it out. I was beginning to wonder if she would ever get the hang of it because she seriously had no sense of balance. She has only crashed a few times. Nothing a band-aid can't fix!
Good Job Mackee!




Keely is now a proud bike rider in training...

Izzie doesn't seem to mind just sitting back and watching...
