Merry Christmas!

I love the to decorate for the holidays, it gives me something new to look at!

Dance Recital 2010

This year Tessa's dance teacher thought it would be cute for the girls to perform their dance in front of Santa, but for Tessa(a Santa hater) this was no fun! During the whole dance her eyes were glued to Santa's in sheer terror. Half way through the dance she could not bare the anxiety anymore and began to shed tears....big crocodile tears! She has begged to not have Santa drop gifts off this year, "Mom, he's scary" she says. If you think about it it's kind of true, a big fat old man, yelling"Ho Ho Ho" while his face is lost behind mounds and mounds of white curly hair. Tessa, I don't blame you I would be scared too!

Dear Dear Libby,
You give me a run for money on a daily basis, and I have been known to cry during a few of our battles, but I love you more than anything! You are a compassionate, kind, and giving person! Your happiness and energy is contagious. Your strong personality will be an asset later on......and please be kind to your parents when you are a teenager......PLEASEEEEE!

The ultimate BYU fans. I may be the ultimate football hater because it takes so much of my husband time, but I do think it's pretty cute that Drew and Garrett get this father and son bonding time........by-the-way I went to a game once with Garrett and two teams were playing in blue uniforms and I had to ask Garrett what team BYU was!

Happy Halloween!

Here's to one of the best Holidays of the whole year!

The beach does the soul good!

Bryce, otherwise known as Captain Fun! We all sat on the beach and slept while Bryce entertained the kids, he even made a Sponge Bob Bikini Bottom sand castle!

Poor,poor, pregnant Lori! She was so sick, but still managed to have fun!


So the best Mom in the world decided to take my family and my sister's family to the beach! She was such a trooper dealing with all of our kids! Thanks Mom, we love you!

It's never fun when you get destroyed by a wave....sorry Drew!



Ahhhh, it just wouldn't be the beach if you didn't have a least one person bury themselves in the sand! It kind of scares me to see the headless bodies!

BFF

I have a best friend, I love having a best friend, I hoped Libby would have a best friend! There's something about having a very best friend who will love you through thick and thin, even forgive you when you go on a date with the guy she liked! Little Miss Libby and little Miss Amanda are the best of friends and I hope they can continue this cute relationship!
