Spring Break

This was our 3rd year at our annual spring break campout. I was worried about having Seth there but everything turned out just fine. The weather was great. No rain which was all I asked for. Seth was awesome and did great sleeping in the car. We have so much fun with everyone. It's a great way to visit and catch up with all our friends.

Seth also did great taking naps right on the beach. We went well equipped.

Unfortunately Ellyse got sick the last day (we had our first throw up, in the middle of the night, in your sleeping bag experience)

Camp site.

Goodbye beach. Until next year!

Mia's 3rd Birthday

`Back in January Mia turned 3. She said she wanted to ride horses for her birthday. Russell (Mia's favorite person from our ward) happen's to have horses and was happy to have her come over. It was a super cold night so we bundled up and the girls had a blast.

Christmas

 Christmas Eve. Wearing their christmas pj's that Grandma made  

 Twas the night before Christmas...

 Ellyse's very own turtle (she told me this week that she doesn't want a turtle anymore.....they poop!) too bad.

 I didn't know one could get so excited over candy. I love it though!

 Barbie......lily's favorite!

Christmas was so fun this year. The girls were really good about sharing and being kind and they were appreciative. It was a super success and everyone was happy.

Mini Vacation

 Ferry ride to the Island. (I forget how much I like taking the ferry)

 Cousins just having fun together

 Mom and Mia in front of the Vancouver temple. (My parents 2nd home for 3 years.)

My parents temporary abode in Vancouver

The beginning of December, I was able to go up to visit the island with just Mia and Seth. It was a nice little getaway. We timed it perfect so my parents could pick us up at the Bellingham airport and then we headed straight to the ferry and spent 5 days on the island. It was so nice. I miss the green and beautiful scenery that BC has to offer. I loved being up there and I wished the other girls could have come but school was still in.
