About Us.

Hi, we're the Eastmonds. Rob, Amy, James, Elli, Emma, and Jake. We love to work together, play together, and just be family together. We are beginning a new adventure. We are moving from the city life to the country life, and are anxious to share our experiences along the way. We will be learning how to be more self sufficient through gardening efforts, raising animals, and trying new energy sources while becoming more green. We love our world, and want to be able to use it better and safer as it has been given to us from our Heavenly Father. We are very blessed because of our beliefs in our savior Jesus Christ. We hope you enjoy our blog, and hope to hear from you again!

HALLOWEEN FUN!!

We celebrated Halloween in Colorado. Chipoltle was giving away free food if you dressed up like a burrito (ie: wear tin foil)


Every year we go to the Pumkin Patch in Santaquin to get our pumpkins. It is always so much fun to pick our own!



The Final Product!





James Birthday

For James 16th Bday, we spent time in Vegas and he had friends over for ALL NIGHT games. The next morning they were good sports to watch General Conference. They had a good time!








Hiking in Red Rocks in Vegas! It was so beautiful!

A New Post to Keep You Wanting More.

Well everyone. Sorry about not updating as often as would be 'normal', but I haven't really gotten around to blogging. I'm working on setting up a time to work with my mom so she can do it (as she would be better update it than I). So, until then, you have this beautiful winter picture of our two trees out front, the photo of course was taken by my mom. Enjoy, and until then, well, wish us luck!

Frederik is Here!

Hey Everyone! Frederik is here. He's a German Foreign exchange student from Bielefeld, Germany. He speaks English well, and he is way cool. He's very smart, (he is taking A.P. core classes cause he already learned it, and it's the most advanced classes in are school!). He's very nice, and he's also funny. He cooks well, and he knows soccer tricks that I'd never be able to learn. It's been really fun so far, and we know that we will have more fun with him throughout the rest of the school year.

Guess Who's Birthday it is?....





MINE!!!
------------------
Summer always brings Emma's Birthday! This year was a special one. She turned 8. In our church, kids get baptized at this age. It is very exciting for everyone, because they become members of our church! And boy did we celebrate!! We started off with cousin makeovers, updo's, and manicures. OOO La La!








Then we decided to let them all get their ears pierced. They were all a little nervous at first, but all loved it afterwards!



Later, we had dinner with the whole family at the Spaghetti Factory.


Then it was the big day! All dressed in White!



What a fun filled weekend we had. We are so grateful for all those who came and supported Emma! We love you all!



Eastmond Family Vacation!

Hey everyone! Got another slideshow for ya! This slideshow is about our recent trip to Nauvoo. You'll have to turn down or turn off the blog music to hear it. My mom and I put this together, and I also edited some of the photos in the slideshow. Hope you enjoy!
