Through the year...

This is Tae over the year.



She loves skeddie.

This is her early Christmas from Lexi. It is a duck towel. Man, she is stinkin' cute.

Happy Birthday Taelyn!

I can't believe that it has already been a year. My little Tae is turning one today. She has been the greatest joy this last year. She has learned to crawl, walk, and now run. She eats big people's food. Loves to make people laugh. Waves hi and bye. Gives great kisses and is the best snuggler. We are so glad to have her sweet spirit in our home.

Gingerbread House

So it is the first day of Christmas break. I can't believe how much longer I have to go. We decided to decorate a gingerbread house while Tae slept. The kids did really well. I frosted while the kids ate and decorated. I cheated by using a glue gun to hold it in place first. Only 4 more days till Christmas. HURRY!

SANTA

The kids were at the ward Christmas party and sat on Santa's lap. It looks as if Tae was a little unhappy about that.

The Elf on the Shelf

This is Eddie Chu-Cha Dan. Each kid named him. We call him Eddie for short. He came to our home last year. He comes on the first of December. He has a different place every day and the kids find him. He watches the kids and reports back to Santa each night. We never touch him because he can loose his magic if we do. Then after Christmas he goes back in his box and returns next year. Our family has a lot of fun with him. This picture is his latest hiding place. How did he do that?

Decorating the Tree!!

We finally got around to decorating the tree. Sadly it sat for days with nothing on it.
So I let the kids do it all by themselves. I at one point
had to leave because I wanted to fix it and make it perfect but it
turned out perfect with the three placing ornaments here and there.
The kids love to see the ornaments they have collected over the years.
I give them one and so does grandma Ramsey. Seeing their first Christmas one is my favorite.

Happy Birthday Olivia!!!

Olivia turned three today. YAHOO!!!! We had her
party at grandma and grandpa Curran's house on Sun.
Our theme was doggie's. We broke a pinata, played
pin the paw on the dog, and freeze dance. She had
family and friends to celebrate. They got her baby
dolls, soccer ball, games, and books. All in all it was a
great day. Love you Livi!

Pinata Fun

We played pinata at the party. Jaren ripped his legs off but Brady busted the belly and away the candy flew. Lexi took a good whack at it. Her mom Kristy helped and cheered her on.

Gettin' Jiggy with it

The kids were playing freeze dance. We had some pretty funky moves going.

Making a wish. My mom forgot the candles so we improvised.

Opening presents.

Livi visited the dentist and they gave her a balloon. Her dad told her not to let go of it and she didn't even when she was sleeping.

My buddy Casey

This is my my buddy Casey. We have been friends since birth. We like to play together.

Through the years...

Livi has brought a lot of fun and excitement to our family. She likes to swim, dance, play pretend, and be with her daddy.
