The J man...

Funny grumpy face!!!!!!!!!

This is my brothers little boy...he is a nut, my bro asked me to take some pic's of him and what a challenge it was...he was bouncing all over the place!!! But he sure is cute!!!!

Enjoying a little sun. . .

Moosee loves her baby doll!!!
Mase...sport'en the oh so stylish rain boots!!! His fav!!!

Moosee calls this little baby pack her pa pak....it was Beenz and now Mossee wants to wear it all the time...it's a lovely affair every time we have to take it off to get in the car seat!!!

Moosee lasted about 4 times around the church parking lot before she decided she wanted to push her baby around!!!

We have a little tiny bit of sun and I loved it!!! I was so grateful for the chance to be outside!!! I can't wait for more nice weather!!!!

Jesus Wants Mase For a Sunbeam....

Wow...my little Mase is already a sunbeam....!!!!

He was really excited his first day of Primary!!! It's nice that he has 2 boy cousins in his class, and I am the teacher....again!!

Don't these boys look so cute with their scriptures and cute church clothes!! I love it!!!

Girls Night. . .

Me and Jen, great friends since middle school!!! Jen and I were the only retards that would pose with this lovely guy!!

As she was standing there waiting for me to take her picture I pretended like I was trying to get my camera to work so she stood there posed like this while this huge group of people walked by, it was not until after I took the picture that she realized what I was doing!! Funny!!!

Me, Jen, Heidi, and Holly!!

Heidi says she is 19 weeks pregnant!! Ya right!! If only I could look so good pregnant!!!

Last weekend for my birthday these

girlee's and I went to dinner and a movie!!!

We had so much fun!! We laughed so hard and

talked so much that we almost

missed our movie!!!

I love girls night!!!

Thanks girls!!

yes...we did see twilight and no I'm not saying how many times that is for me!!!!

Just ONE....

All I wanted was

just ONE picture...just ONE...

of all 3 of my kids...

in their Christmas outfits...smiling....is that to much to ask??

Why is that so hard??????

Family Hike...

One of our most favorite family things to do is hike up the mountain in our back yard!! It is so fun!! The kids love it! Last week we had a really nice day, so we jumped on the chance to be out side!!! We hike about half way up the mountain, to the power towers, and ate lunch!! It is a beautiful view!!!! It is such a fun family activity!! I am so ready for more nice weather!!!

New Years. . .

Every year...since I was born...our extended family gets together for New Years!! We all bring yummy food, and play games, and hang out waiting for the new year!!!!

This is some of the yummy food! Home made cheese ball..yum..home made taquitos...all sorts of home made dips...and I brought....

Si Casa chips and salsa....I got busy!!!

Us adults played a Uno Flash game the was SO HILARIOUS!!! You have to move super fast and it went on and on and on and on!!! We were laughing so hard and even better Joel was Losing!!!!
Here is what my super competitive brother looks like when he is losing to his little sister...and that is what my little brother looks like when he is making fun of Joel for losing to ME!!!

Chris ended up winning the game!!!

Then at the New Year...we all got outside and make noise.....

Chris is obsessed with the fire work lighting....

Moosee just wanted to stay with the dog...all night!!

and of course the Mid Night Kiss!!!

Merry Christmas...

The kids all slept in the same room and came in to wake us up at 5:50 to open presents!!

Mase was a little excited about the Geo track train set Santa left him!!!
I LOVE Mase and Moosee's hair in this picture!!! They both always wake up with wild crazy hair!! Beenz read the American Girl Kit books this summer before the movie came out, then got the Kit doll for her birthday and all she wanted was Kit's tree house, thank you Santa...and his helpers!!Santa always leaves a ribbon tired to the kids stocking so they know what their presents are wrapped in! Beenz were red paper with red ribbon, Mase green paper with green ribbon, and Moose was red paper green ribbon!!! Oh and we went sledding with Destiny and Nate and their girls on the 23 and Beenz flew off her sled and on her face...that is why her face is scratched!!!! Lovely!!!Father son matching ties...Mase loves this!!


Moosee loves Mase rain boots that he had, and so she got her own matching ones with Beenz for Christmas and of course they were to SMALL...so she settled for wearing Mase's...for most of the day!!! Moosee's favorite gift from Nana and Pa!!! All the grandchildren...so excited...opening gifts at Nana and Pa's!!

Chris and I have found that playing the parent role at Christmas is SO much fun!! We LOVE it and get way into it!! Our children were so excited for Christmas and SO excited for Santa! It made this Christmas season especially fun!! We wonder how many more we will have when all the kids believe so much....I hope many more!!! What a great Christmas we had!!!!
