Lauryn's Christmas Performance






Lauryn started dance this year and she absolutely LOVES it! She asks almost every day "Mom, is it tuesday? I want to go to dance." I love that she loves it and is having such a fun time. Well this was her first time performing and she did such a good job. Her cousin's, Kesslee and Kira take dance from the same teacher so they all got to perform together! It was so fun and I can't believe I have a little girl old enough to do this!

Christmas Card Pictures



My sister and I took my kids outside our houses the other day to try and get some pictures for my christmas cards. I was so happy that we actally got some that would work because I knew my chances were slim. They turned out cute!!

The Dentist



Lauryn had her first dentist appointment this last month (I know!! It's a little late). She did so good and was not even scared at all. She let them do everything they needed to and she loved it! We were so happy because she didn't have any cavity's so the dentist added her to the "Zero Cavity Club". She was so excited that she took her little certificate for show-and-tell the next day at school!

Trunk or Treat!

What a cute kid!

She is such a poser!
West Jordan park was having a Trunk or Treat so we took our kids with TJ's brother and
his son. We got there an hour after it started and there were only two cars left with candy!
What a bummer! We let the kids play on the playground for a while and then they found a water fountain that they liked more. It ended up being a fun activity!

**Fun In The Snow**

Lauryn was so excited last sunday when she woke up to snow.
She wore here snow boots all day and made her first snow angel
of the year!

Braxton was pretty excited too. I really didn't want him

to get him all dressed up for the snow so I just let him go out in his pj's.

He loved the snow except for when he fell over and his little

hands got cold.

A Day at Gardner Village

We took the kids to Garner Village today to go see the witch festival.
It was soooo cute and the kids thought they were so funny.


They also have a petting zoo there that I would recommend for

every kid! My kids loved it because the animals are just their size

and they were everywhere.

They also got to have pony rides!!!

Both of their horses were so cute! Braxton's went to my hips and

Lauryn's went just above my hip! So Cute!

Our Make-up Artist

The other day Lauryn wanted to put some make-up on with me. I wasn't paying attention and while I was concentrating on my make-up Lauryn said " Hey mom, glook!" And this is what I found. It took a while to get this all off her face and then we had a little lesson after about how to put make-up on. She is pretty good at it now.

Lauryn's First Day Of School


Lauryn had here first day of her second year in preschool. She loves school and was soooo excited to go. Her teacher is my mom, Ms. Patti. She has a hard time sharing grammy sometimes but she does really well at school and loves her friends there.

The Zoo!!




We have Zoo passes and we took the kids to the zoo this last week. We love to go in the mornings right when it opens because it's not to hot for the animals so they are really active. Our favorite things at the zoo is the Asain Highlands (the tigers), the elephant show, and the bird show. WE LOVE THE ZOO!!!

Lauryn and Bibbils



This is such a funny picture of Lauryn and our dog that she named Bibbils. She loves to carry him around and pretend she's the mom. If they aren't loving each other they are fighting just like brother and sister. We pretty much have a 3rd child!!! What was I thinking???

Friday, August 24, 2007




We just had our family pictures taken and they turned out soooo cute. Lauryn is 4 years old now and Braxton is 18 months old. We love our kids so much and we can't believe how fast they are growing up!
