2011 Year in Review – Photo Style

Lots of little pictures… but it was so fun to look through the pictures on the computer and see how the kids have grown since January. And I realized there are oodles of things I missed blogging – oh, like birthdays. We’ll get to them – hopefully. 2011 – a hard year with my pregnancy… […]

something is not quite right…

can you tell me what’s wrong with this picture? (ok – other than the quality of photography here.) No snow. It’s January 2. No snow… Like really no snow this entire winter. Weird. The kids are playing outside in short sleeves, sunglasses… in 60 degree weather… in Utah… in January. I know I ought not […]

Choose the Right

Love the Primary Theme for 2012. The kids came home with new CTR rings. Max learned about Choosing the Right. Abe learned about Agency. Good stuff. Mom: “Hey kids, let’s take a picture of all of you with your new CTR rings.” This was the result: ~ Max wins for Choosing the Right. ~ Tru […]

New Years Eve

Who knew I’d have the “opportunity” to feed Zu Zu at 3:30 a.m.  Luckily we got Tru out of our bed & hopefully asleep for “reals” just before she woke. Have you ever tried to sleep with a wiry-wiggly-2-year-old? Sleep? What’s that? Thought I’d sneak in a little scrapping time since I was “up.” The […]

Happy New Year 2012

I’m ringing in the New Year here at 12:01 … Hello 2012! I didn’t think I’d still be awake. The house is quiet. Jimmy is sleeping. There are fireworks sounding outside. My brain is very tired. But because the barnlings stayed up until 10, that left a few quiet hours to finish prep for my […]

Christmas 2011

In case you missed the band-aid. This was one of my favorite things about Christmas… in the middle of the closing Christmas Hymn in Sacrament meeting, I just got the giggles about Max’s band-aid. How is it that he happened to get the very most industrial band-aid we have for his teeny scratch. And how […]

a white Christmas?

I’m afraid the only WHITE CHRISTMAS we’ll have this year is the white in these photos. No snow around. Looks like the kids are ready for presents. It’s 7 a.m. and they can’t wait much longer. Zu-zu must have been really excited as she got up at 5:30. p.s. It was NOT a very silent […]

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas Eve program was a little mellow. Today 3 of us came down with the stomach flu – blek! I spent the day laying in my bed with Max by my side. He said awesome things like, “I weally wike you mom. I do.” “But I don’t wike gatora. Will it be good for […]
