Julianne's Missing Teeth

Julianne has now lost three teeth in two weeks. She is making the tooth fairy go broke! I'm sure she'll soon be singing, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!"

Nauvoo

















We were able to stop in Nauvoo on our way home from Florida. The pagent was awsome and Shanti did an amazing job!












Summer was great! We had so much fun with family and friends!







Snow Bird








Last weekend we went with some friends to Snowbird ski resort to ride the tram to the top of the Mountian. It was amazing and very cold!!!! We overlooked all of the mountians.

Halloween

















Halloween was a blast. We celebrated two nights in a row. The first night the kids dressed up one way and for trick-or-treating they dressed up out of the dress-up bin. Holly and Landon enjoyed going around with their buddies this year and were able to visit many houses! Tim and I enjoyed the twins being older and actually stayed out the whole time this year. Landon was very proud of his home made Ben Ten costume. Holly decided to represent Florida as a beach bum! Julianne was Mrs. Claus the first night and a Gator cheerleader the next. The twins were Indiana Jones ( I know it looks a lot like a cowboy, but he labeled himself Indiana Jones) and a pirate. Carter kept telling Sawyer he was a nice pirate. They were all so cute!




Fall in Utah


We are enjoying all of the color around town. There are so many yellows, oranges, and reds! The kids are having fun making leaf piles and jumping in them. Carter is upset because he can't cover his legs.

Landon's Baptism





Landon turned 8 this year and was baptized on Sept. 6, 2008. It was a wonderful day. Nana and Papa were there with us along with Uncle Jeremy and John and Tammy Lake. Landon was very excited and we all felt especially close to each other that day.


1st Day of School!




Julianne now joins the big kids. She attends our neighborhood school, while Holly and Landon attend the school where I am teaching. Julianne's teacher is Mrs. Baker and she loves her. Everyone loves school and is doing great!

Berkeley


Berkely is doing great since he just lost 20lbs of hair. I have never seen his hair so thick from the cold winter, so instead of fighting matted up hair we just shaved it all off. At least he'll be cool!!!

Last Day of School












What a fun day! All of the mother's in my neighborhood got together and attacked our kids with shaving cream and water balloons as they walked home from school. The kids had a blast and I'm sure they will never forget it.



Twinners














No matter what they are doing, it always brings a smile to my face. This has definitly been a hard year with these two, but they are finally making me laugh instead of cry!

Mother's Day


I truely enjoyed my Mother's Day weekend this year. The kids brought me breakfast in bed with a coupon for a one hour massage. I am waiting to use it when I am at the "end of my rope". We are so happy Spring has finally arrived in Utah. They said it has been the coldest Winter in 5+ years, go figure!

Landon hits puberty


Landon got in the car this day from school covering his mouth. When I asked him what was wrong he told me "I grew what dad has." Little did he know he had it on upside down.

Cousin Hampton




The twins have their first cousin on my side. I know Sawyer is trying to figure out how he can get that binky out of his mouth. Well, I guess he figured it out!

More Snow




The snow is pretty, but I think I'm getting ready for Spring!

Holly's 9th b-day




On Dec. 28th, Holly celebrated her 9th b-day. I can't believe she's been in our family that long. While she missed celebrating with her friends in Florida, we payed a few girls to come over and wish her Happy Birthday.

Christmas Day











Gaga spent Christmas with us but had to leave after lunch. I know she will miss us, but will be glad to be in the warmer weather!

Holly and Landon's Christmas performance


Holly and Landon were part of Burton Elementary's Christmas Choir. They both did such a good job!

1st snow







This was our first snow day for the season. The kids were so excited to play in it. The whole neighborhood was out together.
