Shopping!

 I had the awesome job of going shopping with my nieces to find them dresses for the wedding! The top one is of Jovi...she loves to pose for the camera...such a girl! LOVE IT.  It was so much fun going with them....but really hard to find a modest dress for them.  
The bottom picture is of my niece Halen! I made her try on this dress that looked like it belonged on a 4 year old!! I thought it was funny to see her in it so of course i took a picture of it but she wasn't as willing to pose.  We were laughing too hard!
 LOVE YOU GIRLS!

Basketball time

 This year we signed our boys up for the first time.  He was pretty fun.  There was this little kid on Jackson's team that was SO good! He was little and just awesome.  My little Jackson didn't do too bad.  I love watching them.  
 We didn't order pictures this year....so Kevin decided to take his own!
My little beetle!! Nice hair cut!

 Way to go boys! You did really awesome for you first time on a team!

My sister is a bride!

My little sister is MARRIED!! crazy! She got married on January 12th in the Salt Lake temple to Damon.  She was hoping for a snowy wedding and she got it!! It snowed the night before and a little bit the day of and it was SO pretty for her pictures!


After they got married they had a lunch at the Joseph Smith Memorial building.  The view was AWESOME from there....as you can tell by my dad's pictures.  I still can't get over how they build that temple...it really is a cool building.  


 This was a cute picture that Ethan drew of them.......I love our jazz hands!
 Not the best pictures but me and my married sister! I loved my brides maid dress....not your typical one.  I got to pick my own out....yes!!

 He wedding colors were black, ivory and purple.  Jovi and Jackson had a fun time dancing.  At the end they had a a big dance party! LOVE IT!
 WOW.....so this is what it would be like with 5 kids......hummm....maybe I will pass;) That is my brother with me and 3 of his kids.  
They had the best cake......Krispie Kremes!! It was fun to put it together!!
My parents with all their grandkids! It was a really fun night! It was fun to be able to plan this with her and be apart of it! LOVE YOU Mrs. Martin!!

My Shanna Banana- you will be missed!!

 My cute aunt passed away this year! I really miss her and have lots of great memories of her.  She is my mom's sister.  She didn't have a family of her own so she went on a lot of family vacations with us.....so I got to know her really well.  She was just one of the family.  She traveled around the world a lot and would bring me back dolls from all the countries she visited.  I still have them and will love them forever.  I remember playing barbies with my sister at her house all the time.........all the Sunday dinners we had with her.............how much she loved playing card games.  Her always sitting in my mom big chair and a half in my parents house.  Her obsession with beanie babies and plastic canvas! Every Christmas I am reminded of her because she gave us our tree.....even though it is SO old and sheds I seem to can't get rid of it :) She gave us our bedroom set when we first got married and we still have some of the pieces! 
She was a great aunt and loved us so much and we knew it!
This is a picture I took of my brother at the graveside. It was really cold! 
She has a cute blue casket....that is her favorite color. 
 These are just a few pictures I found of her back in 2009 having dinner with us and story time!
LOVE YOU SHANNA BANANA!! you will be forever in our homes and our hearts!! MISS YOU 

Randomness of December 2012

 I love to watch my boys sleep! My favorite thing to do right before I got to bed is pick them up and rock them in a chair for awhile! I don't get long cuddles like that too often....so I steal the chance!
 We love bath time with our little tiger!
 Cheese
 Those are some chubby cheeks

 This is a picture of our friends girl! I love her! She is too cute
 This is a picture I took at my parents house! I thought it was funny they were all on something of my dads at the same time! 
The boys decided to dress up in their Christmas pajamas from last year. I'm glad they still fit!

CHRISTMAS 2012

 It's Christmas time and did I take pictures? Nope! Crazy girl gets too involved and forgets. 
He are our stockings and gifts that Santa left. Ethan and Jackson got some star wars pods and Marshall got a batcave car thing.
 I love in the condo that it has a fireplace! It made it so cozy!!
 The bat cave thing Marshall got he played with it forever! Yeah Santa!
 The older boys got some legos and spider man shooter things. The loved it! Christmas was great and fun!
When it was time for Marshall's nap, Kevin decided to take the boys to the park....on Christmas you ask? Yes! I was so pretty outside and no one was out there. Kevin is such a good dad!
 This is Marshall playing with his cool digger that Kevin's parents gave to him. He loves it!
 Our beautiful dinner....turkey and mashed potatoes!
Merry Christmas Marshall! He was ready for bed by the end of the night!

Christmas eve at the condo

 On Christmas eve this year we made gingerbread houses (aka..graham cracker houses) 
 Ethan decided to make a little man out of his....very interesting!
 Then we all get to open one gift which is usually jammies.....Jackson is excited can't you tell?
 Our cute little Marshall with his owie! He got it when we were visiting out neighbor Helen.  She had some stocking holder on the mantel and he pulled one down and cut his lip....poor guy.  
 Our beautiful Christmas....hopefully we are in our new house next year! It has been fun living in my grandparents condo!
Jackson showing off his new jammies!

 I love watching everyone open their presents....thanks for the fun memories!

Christmas 2012 at the Farmers

 Well this is really disappointing! I guess I didn't take too many pictures of Christmas at my parents.  
 I get too involved in the fun time and forget to take pictures...oh well it was fun & I love the Christmas season and what it is all about!!
 What a handsome man I have!!
 Jackson got a cool Cars bowling set from my brother Cameron's family

Ethan got a Captain America button thingy that talks when you press it.  He was very proud of it!
