Ahhhhhhh!

For Valentine's Day, I found these cute dresses for the girls. I wanted to get a picture of all the kids on the couch together and Roper and Annie were more than happy to do so but Mylee...well she wasn't too pleased and she insisted on holding a transformers lunch box in the picture.








Mylee was more than happy to give me her best grin once picture time was over and she could play. She has so much personality and she gives the best hugs and kisses.










Annie loves to do anything and everything. She SERIOUSLY is the best baby! She didn't pose for this picture...on any given day and at any given moment this is what she looks like...grinning from ear to ear. When I see her, I think of the primary song.."I am like a star shining brightly..."!

The Viper!

We just experienced our first pinewood derby. Roper and Brody spent a whole Saturday cutting, sanding, building, and painting his derby car. Roper called it...The Viper! He painted a picture on the hood of his car of a snake with red eyes but unfortunately when we got to the derby we found out our car didn't weigh enough...so we had to put weights all over the hood. Rope didn't seem to care and even though he didn't win any of his races, we came home that night and he deemed his first pinewood derby experience as "the best ever!

What I'm up to

I have been on a two year break from singing pretty much. I sang for 3 years with an all women's choir called the Musettes based out of Nampa...and now I'm back! I really enjoy it. Some of the music we sing is not really my forte but, that's just because the ages in this group run from 20 to 80 years old. We do a lot of oldies (but goodies). I have made some really good friends in this group. Some of the ladies in the group have fought cancer, some have lost husbands, some are fighting major illnesses right now. We give hugs and words of encouragement and even take meals to one another. I guess you could say it is almost like a mini relief society. Anyway, I never really talk on the blog about what I am up to so I thought I would post this picture of the Musettes singing the National Anthem at the BSU mens' basketball game against Idaho. (I must say we were the definite HIT of the night...BSU stunk it up and lost by a landslide!

It's my party I can cry if I want to!!

I turned 2 on Wednesday, January 27th. I had a fever and wasn't feeling very well so Mommy took me to see the doctor and he said I had a sinus infection. We had a big party planned with uncles, aunts, and cousins but Mommy canceled the party and made me drink this awful medicine and put me to bed. Mommy said that we would celebrate my party on Friday but, I still wasn't feeling too hot on Friday...so...she made me blow out my candles and open presents with just me, Roper, Annie, and Daddy. I wasn't very happy with the whole situation until I realized that I got to rip paper off of boxes and there were toys inside!! My favorite toy was my barn. It ended up being a pretty good party...even if I was sick.
