Blog update

Well I really want to update my blog but I have this person visiting my blog that I really don't want to know about my personal life. I know it sounds ridiculous, I've asked them to stop but they won't and they must not realize that the little program at the bottom of my blog tells me who has been visiting my site, so I KNOW who you are, please stop, last warning or I'll make it reader only and make it difficult for all my friends and family which isn't fair.


Thanks for respecting my families privacy, I've been respecting yours.

President Hinckley passed away


Justin in case you haven't heard President Hinckley passed away somewhere around 6:30pm tonight. Good for him, sad for us.

Eric and Hadley's Christmas concert-didn't get any really good pictures of the concert itself but here are a few pre-concert pics.

A little behind-




Here are santa's helpers-Justin was there but he would have nothing to do with Santa too old for that-NOT! I was busy taking pictures most of the night for the ward but it was still a lot of fun to watch all the kids come through and enjoy santa's lap.

What is this you ask?

Yes for three hours from 9pm-12pm on Tuesday night a little grey mouse kept Marc and I chasing him. Marc first spotted him run across in front of the fireplace and bookcase into Justin's room-ggrrrrrr a mouse not in my house. We talked for 20 minutes or so to speculate how he got in. Eventually we got the guts up to go into Justins room and two and half hours later the mouse was under a bucket and on his way OUT!In the pictures the mouse is stacked under Justin's lego bucket and the empty dishwasher soap bucket. He was dumped in the street, hopefully not injured.

And the Christmas Tree goes up





Well we have a "fake" christmas tree and it went up the other day. The kids had loads of fun dancing and putting ornaments on etc. etc. We only had two santa hats so they took turns-no it's the question of the day " Is it Christmas tomorrow" Wow only 22 more days of that-oh well I do love my kids and Christmas !:)

Another drive to the bird refuge-



A little killdeer glaring at me to go away and a sparrow pecking at the ground :)

My backyard


Well this isn't exactly my backyard, but it's just a foot from my fenceline-if the fence weren't there it would feel like my backyard. I LOVE this view-this year the ducks have joined in too and I'm so happy! :)

Why my girls?! Is it in the Genes?






Well Madilynn has followed in her sisters footsteps.Hadley was the leader, cutting her pony tail off at 3.5 years old, then Eric took a "little" chunk out of Madilynn's hair about a year ago. Then Lauren on her own at her mom's house has cut hers 4 times, the picture is now the end result of those 4 cuts, looks kinda retro 80's punk in Lauren's defense. But Madilynn well there just wasn't a fix, have a looksee for yourself I know you aren't her mom so you won't cry but you have to admit it's sad. :(

Sadness-

I lost a part of me this weekend. My camera was broken by my very sorry innocent 12 yr old. He tried shoving the CF card in the wrong way :( He feels so bad. I couldn't stand it so I ordered a new one yesterday morning. :) What will I do until it gets here. Just kidding, I know I have plenty to do but I do feel so lost without it. Actually I've got two blankets to make, but I'm waiting on my new sewing machine to start one of them...............Hmm what a dilema, do you think possibly I'm stuck cleaning house :)

Catching up again-Justin and I took a drive early Saturday morning





We went for a few walks on the local wildlife refuge and here are some of our images. We had so much fun. I love him so very much, were two peas in a pod, he gets me and I get him. We both laughed until our tummies hurt, so much for trying to attract wildlife. :)

Catching up






A few weeks ago we spent a couple of days at the coast, it was wonderful. The weather was so warm most of the kids took their coats off. We went to Lincoln city, we were so lucky to find a glass float. The city of Lincoln City puts out glass floats on the beach to attract tourists to the beaches in the winter. It's beautiful, I'll post a picture later.

Look At those Cheeks!




When I was pregnant with Madilynn I had a 3-D ultrasound at 34 weeks. The first thing the lady said when the baby came into view was "Look at those cheeks". It's still the same. She's beautiful and today she wanted her picture taken and she wanted to ham it up.

Here she is, my little girl who is in the throws of the terrible two's but what in the world would I do without her?
