I'm Baaacckkkk

My goodness it's been quite a while since I've updated my blog. Since getting a new position at work, I feel like it has consumed me. But I will be back in action I'm sure as the weather finally gets warmer. In the meantime, Sean has lost his first tooth. And about a week later, lost the other. These pics were taken after the first one fell out. And Brooke is just going to preschool twice a week and having a blast.











So glad Tera taught me how to do Brooke's hair.

Christmas Presents

We had such a fun Christmas this year! Brooke asked for a Dora Dollhouse, which Santa brought her Christmas morning. And Sean got an Imaginext aircraft carrier and a bunch of airplanes.

Sean got a pinball machine from Gramma Suz.


Brooke also replenished her dried out playdo collection.


My little longhair finally got his skateboard too.



Too bad for them they have to go back to school after all this excitement


Here's my playdo creation. Self portrait.

Christmas Time!

Brooke had a few Christmas recitals this year. She had one for her dance class at American Fork Jr. High which all the grandparents showed up for. She did great! The next day, she had one for her preschool where she sang and danced to, "I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" among some others. She wouldn't sit on Santa's lap to tell him what she wanted for Christmas but she did approach him for a candy cane.











Brooke sitting patiently at her preschool program.


And getting her candy cane from the Big Man.

Katie's Wedding

Just a few pics from Chad's little sisters recent wedding to our newest brother in law Derek. May you have many years of happiness!

We all laughed at Brooke getting a taste of cake.
