Happy New Year To ALL!

We wish everyone a happy new year. This winter has been fun so far. The kids really enjoyed Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa's. They love the new Jammies!! Christmas morning was fun with lots of stuff from Santa and under the tree. Thanks for the cabbage patch Jamie and girls. Josi is going in for a kiss.. And now for the snow FUN..... The bright sun is in their eyes for the picture.

Well thanks for all the gifts that were shared with us. The Wii is fun, the toys are great. I have really enjoyed the time together this week, with Lonnie off work and Wes out of school. Next week we can get back into routine, but this last week has been fun being together.

Halloween

I'm with you Brenna, Halloween is a bit silly. Kids to dress up makes it fun, getting together with the ward makes it bearable.
We actually had a lot of fun this year.
Our ward has tried trunk or treat after a big soup dinner and it has usually been so cold, raining or snowing that the kids parade around the gym and grab candy out of buckets. It takes about 10 minutes and they are stocked for the winter.
This year was different and so fun. People signed up to decorate rooms and they had candy from those who chose not to.

REALLY CREEPY PICTURE because the camera apparently was on a wierd setting (not automatic)


I got to "Trick or Treat" with Clay and actually knock on a door, The rooms were so fun. He loved it, Weston went around with his friends and Josi stayed in Lonnie's arms and visited with ward members.

I had a hard time getting pics of them this year though. So I don't have the traditional picture of them at my door. Josi was a cute bunny, Clayton was a super pumpkin at Grandma's and then decided to be a spooky ghost last minute on Halloween. Wes decided he just wanted to wear his soccer clothes and carry a football - I guess he was an athlete.

Since our pictures are so blurry - Mom I need you to post a picture of the kids at your house.

Josi's birthday pics

Some of these are just so sweet I have to brag that I have the cutest one year old right now.

She is so fun... I am even hearing her say "thank you". She signs eat and milk and gives sloppy kisses and big hugs. She is such a clumsy walker we are constantly entertained. She walks into walls, tries to run and smacks into the couch hard enough it sends her backward. Then usually laughs and does it again. I love this stage in children. I can't get enough of her and her antics. Her smile is precious and I could go on and on, but you get the picture, Josi is my sunshine and I love it everyday.
