Winter Show


Tanner sang in the choir for his school's Winter Show. He did a great job! Here he is with some of his friends before the performance started. You've gotta love 3rd graders!

Pizza Night

The kids just love making their own mini pizzas. They are quite the little chefs. Taylor even hand tosses his crust.

Fishing in January

We decided to celebrate the New Year and the beautiful weather by taking the kids fishing.



The first catch of the day was made by Hunter. It was his first time to catch a fish. He was super excited, but a little bit afraid of it. It's hard to see in the picture because of the shadows, but it's a little perch down by his knee.



Taylor and Tanner had fun fishing and tossing the foot ball around with Brendan and their uncle Francisco. Taylor ended up catching a good sized catfish that we were quite impressed with.




Papa helped Hannah and Kailey fished some too, but they found other things to keep them busy. And to keep me busy. Keeping them from falling in, helping them off trees they'd climbed, ect. My girly girls are so funny when we're out side. They were playing with worms and Hannah found a huge clam that she was so proud of.

I took so many pictures, I'll have to slide show them. Nana played with the kids, took them to the play ground, and helped me chase Kailey. Mitchell and Hunter loved the dinos at the park. Kailey couldn't get enough of the slide. Our little niece Emma played so sweetly on a quilt most of the day. Mitchell caught a fish too. It was just such a perfect day.

New Year's Eve

We had a great time New Year's Eve at our good friend Nathan and Christina's. We played games and had fondue. Everyone stayed up till Midnight this year.


Hunter had so much fun trying to see how many New Year's hats he could wear at once. And Ritz crackers were his favorite thing to dip in the chocolate fountain. Mine too! They taste just like KitKats(yum!)

Hannah is my chocolate lover, so of course she was in heaven.


Taylor and Tanner spent most of the night playing Wii with their buddies Nicolas and Zachary. But came downstairs frequently for chocolate and Ginger Ale.
Kailey got into the chocolate fountain when no one was watching. What a mess! She's lucky she's so cute...

Here she is getting a kiss at midnight. Can you tell it was way past bed time?

Happy New Year!!
