Baby Russ

With the new year I've hardly taken any picture. But here are 2 of Russell.

Baby Russell On The Move

What a wonderful time

On Thursday we decided to take the family on a little trip to BYU campus. Here we are at Alta apartments where we met. And then for Christmas Eve the kids were excited to set out the carrots for the reindeer and cookies and milk for Santa. Kaylee put this ice pack on the milk to keep it cold.

Christmas was wonderful. The kids were all happy with their gifts. We enjoyed having time to spend together.

That's a sticker on Russell's face that the girls put on him. He likes to stand but hasn't taken more than 1 step.

Merry Christmas

Hope you are all enjoying your month of December!

My sweetie boy is getting so big!

Thanksgiving

It already came and went. Most of Todd's family traveled here from Texas and Denver for Thanksgiving. I really enjoyed this last week having other people here to talk with during the day, play with Russell and cousins for the kids to play with. I didn't take enough pictures but did get the three tables.

and here are the girls after getting all beautified.

Yakima trip

I drove to visit my family in Yakima with the kids. It went well. Todd flew in at the end of the week and then drove back with us. We made applesauce:

homemade bread

and my sister Lisa helped me do these cool blocks

here is Russ with his cousin Logan

We had a great time.

Got to blog Halloween of course

It was rainy! Boo-hoo. But we still got to do some trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. I'm always up for lots of candy.

Here are our pets. Sammy and Sugar. They have gotten to be good friends hanging out in the garage together.

Dallin loves wearing this size 12 months BYU jacket.
Here's Todd's Birthday picture. Look how Russ is smiling all cute.
