Extended Napier Family Pictures

Napier Family Pictures Thanksgiving 2010
These next three picts are just funny.
Our camera started to fall and Josh was leaping to go get it..
He grabbed it just before it hit the ground..
Good catch Josh!

We are all thinking that was pretty funny..
Okay, that's better.. The camera is staying put!

Enjoying our new kitchen..

We just recently did a  remodel/addition on our home, and our favorite part has been the kitchen.. We spend so much time in there now.. One of our favorite family things is making pizzas and now we finally have enough room to all be at the counters at once. What a fun messy time!




Making chocolate covered marshmallows...
Umm.. Alec, we are making them, not eating them...

Family Pictures 2010

If you know me, then you know that I love pictures! I almost always have a camera with me and love editing photos! So this year for our family pictures we decided to take them at the ranch...We had so much fun! Okay, maybe I should rephrase that... The girls had fun (we all like pictures) but we did have some crying, it was starting to get cold, we were tired, and after a couple of hours this is what we have and I love them! We just drove to different places on the ranch and would set the camera up and run to get in the picture! After doing this for a while, we enlisted my sister to take over the photographer role and she did great! Just a tad bit easier than running back and forth! And the ones she took turned out to be my favorite!

I can't believe Double A is actually a teenager now!
Ugh.. They grow up too fast!


15! How can he be 15? This is really not fair! A
ny one know the secret formula for
slowing this down a bit?

10 and as cute as ever...

3 months here... Wasn't I just at the start
of my pregnancy?

Sweet 5 year old...


8 years old.. Obviously, this is one who likes taking pictures!
So fun!

Me with my boys! What sweet little men I have!

Okay, I kind of like this guy! :)




My girls!

My Six A's!

Matt and his girls! This is one of my favorites!

Double A snapped this one of her big brother when
she was holding the camera for me. I love it!

Ironman Arizona 2010

Matt's bike.. ready to go down to bike check in...

Ashtin's first ironman... He slept very comfortably in the wrap
or the stroller through most of the 9 hrs..

Inspiration Station! Our kiddos favorite thing to
do at every ironman.. Make signs for their daddy!

okay, not everyone made signs.. Ashtin just watched!


Cutie making her sign..


He got to go swimming for his first time...
Check out his swim trunks and swim shirt.. So funny!


We made it down in time to see Matt before
he had to be in the water..

The kids love talking to him....

3 of my 6 with their daddy before he heads
off for his crazy long day! The older 2 were off trying
to find a good spot to watch him.


This is always the hard part for me..
Watching him walk away to start the race.
 I worry and I cry every time, even though I know he will be fine...



You can barely see Matt's head
behind the guy in the red cap..
He is in the transition between
the swim and the bike.. 5 hours to go on the bike..


And off he goes!

We had a great place staked out on the bike,
 we were able to see him several times!






One of my favorite pictures because
you can see Abi cheering her daddy on..

It rained and rained!
We were soaked even though
we had umbrellas! We dried the little girls pants
off with the heater in the car so
they wouldn't be miserable the rest of the day!
Ugh! what a day.. Worth it? You bet!



Looking tired! He was definitely not
feeling too hot, I was worrying about him!

While daddy swims, bikes and runs we
swam in the rain, pushed a stroller
through the streets and sand and ran
around the bridges and dug holes
 in the sand! What a day!


Looking across the lake trying to find daddy!

Finish line in sight! Definitely feeling better!

All done! Love this man and so thrilled to see him smiling!

The support crew!

Matt with his parents and kiddos (minus baby)

5th ironman
10th in age group
78th overall
He amazes me!
