 Our much enjoyed family bike rides.

 First day of kindergarten for Lily and 2nd grade for Ellyse.

 We had a pretty good rain about a month ago and lily had fun using her rarely used umbrella.

August 2012

 Seth's Baby Blessing

 Everyone that could make it to the blessing

 Ellyse and Lily dressed up in Great Grandma Gwen's posse outfits(they had to swear to Grandma that the clothes would not be harmed)

 Riding horses with Grandpa

 Mila's baptism(which we had joined with Seth's blessing)

 Grandma Gwen and Seth(and no, she was not driving with him)

 The last day we were in Utah, the girls decided to collect things they could sell on the street. Any money they collected they would walk down to the bakery and buy bread. They were so proud of themselves.

July 2012

Our annual Lake Powell trip was in July which automatically put it as the highlight. We had such a great time. The weather was so nice and we were fortunate enough to have Eric and Nakita join us. We were sure glad we went the first week and missed out on everything that happened the second week(Henry falling from the 2nd deck of the houseboat on his head, Kris squishing his finger between the houseboat and his boat, stitches and many other awful things)

June 2012

 Ellyse's hard work payed off....she got an award for having all A's. We were so proud of all her hard work.

 A few days after school got out, Ellyse celebrated her 7th Birthday.

 Fathers Day 2012

May 2012

 At the hospital....about to give birth.

In May, we finally were able to add the long awaited BOY to our family. We named him Seth. We ALL love him so much. He is such a sweet little guy and he is super mellow and easy. We are so blessed to call him ours.
We also celebrated Bryan's birthday.

April 2012

April brought with it our annual spring break camping trip. Even though I was a month from delivering I still had lots of fun and we couldn't have asked for better camping company.

March 2012

March was a great month....Bryan and I were able to get away while the in-laws watched the girls. We decided to go to New Orleans. It was such a fun city and definitely alot different than what we are used to. We really liked the food, the above ground cemeterys and our Josh Turner in Boloxi Mississippi

Februrary

One of my life goals has always been to donate my hair. I finally reached my goal after growing it for over 2 years. I was able to donate 10 inches (This was a before pic) Can I just tell you, it felt so good to have shorter hair.

January 2012

January 2012- Started out pretty low key. Mia turned 2 at the end of the month! A couple days later we were boiling some water for some eggs when Lily decided to help out and accidently dumped the water, spilling on herself and Mia. We spent the evening at the ER. End results were: Lily came out with 1st degree burn on hand. Mia had 2nd degree burn on her chest, hand and armpit. Thankfully it wasn't worse and since than pretty much everything has healed except for a couple spots in her arm pit.
PS I think this pic was taken while I was sick on the couch and the reason for no burn pics, I know take the majority of my pics from my iphone(which I need to get on the computer)

December 2011

We had a nice Christmas here in Las Vegas. We did go up to Utah a couple days after Christmas until New Years. Usually during that time Bryan goes snowmobiling but there wasn't enough snow so we got to just hang out.

November 2011

II a

In November we had lots of fun riding horses at Uncle Kennys. We also enjoyed being up in Utah to celebrate Thanksgiving with my side of the family.  The kids got to see Santa and I liked being close to and spending time with my awesome family.

October 2011

I've decided that to make up for the last year, I would do highlights from each month.

This is for October 2011. Our highlights were the BYU homecoming parade. (The kids faces will tell you otherwise) Of course our other highlight was halloween.
