We're Really Ready

We have been busy like crazy getting our house ready to sell. Now the sign is up, the flyers are printed, and the pictures have been taken while the rooms are clean and look great for 2 seconds before the little people enter!:) Wish I could freeze the rooms like this every day! If you know anyone interested here is more info on our home

Cute Chubbyness

I love Payton in hats like this, it really shows off her chunky cheeks. Today in Sunday School I was feeding her some food for her lunch and she kept saying, "hmmm, hmmm" with each bite. This girl LOVES to eat, and it shows (I don't blame her, I love to eat good food too!!!)

New Lens

Yay, my new camera lens (early Valentine's Day present from wonderful hubby) just arrived today. Brightens up the day after a bad sinus infection. Cameras and antibiotics are wonderful things!

Trevor's Big Day

Trevor had a great birthday this year, AND he was baptized. He chose to have a family party even though he could have had friends over (he steals my heart!). We've made the cake part of our tradition, partly because I'm too cheap to buy expensive store bought cakes, and partly because my kids think it is so fun to decorate their own cakes. He put a giant 8 on his cake.
He choose to have a dinner of his favorites: waffles and brown sugar bacon. Then we all went rock climbing (even Baily got a turn and loved it, she's so much like him!)
The following Saturday his Dad baptized him. He had to go under 3 times, but they got it right eventually! We finished by going out to lunch at Winger's (his favorite). Trevor is such a sweet heart and brings so much fun to our family. He is so kind to his little sisters and shows them a lot of patience. We sure love this little guy!!! Now I'm wiping a tear away thinking about how big he is:(

When it's yucky outside . . .

When it's yucky outside I like to play with pictures from a warmer time:) Makes me feel a little better with the winter blues!

Cute Girls

Taylor ready for a cold day of school!

Baily has a style all her own (and don't you try and change it!!!)

Christmas 2010

Slowly, slowly getting to the Christmas pictures. We had such a great time this year. It is so fun to have little ones on Christmas; making sugar cookies, sledding, watching the kids get so excited to give each other the gifts they worked on, ice skating. We emailed Santa and asked him to come a day early since we were leaving on Christmas day to go to Colorado to visit our families. Much to the relief of the kids, Santa was able to stop by early and deliver a lot of fun things to everyone.

Gotta love a baby's first Christmas!

My favorite picture from Christmas! Trevor and Taylor were so excited to set out the special cookies they had reserved for Santa. These cookies were LOADED with toppings and frosting, I bet Santa really enjoyed those!:)
