Green Grass and Roses

So I am amazed by the weather out here. It is very nice and mild.  I have yet to experience the whole winter, but I am already enjoying it more than Alberta, Idaho and Utah....We have roses blooming in our front yard, they are almost finished, but last week this blossom came out.  I thought it was just beautiful.  We also are still mowing the lawn, crazy!!!!

Happy Birthday Mom

I just wanted to wish my mom a Happy Birthday on her day.  You are so very special to me and I am so happy, proud, and grateful to be your daughter.  You have taught me so much and have been such an example to me.  I really don't think you know how much I admire the person you are!  You are such a strength to me and my family, in so many ways.  I just want you to know you are loved by us and we appreciate all you are and all you do.  Have a wonderful day! We love our Grammie!!!

Sherry's 4th Birthday

The Poot's (Tara's word to describe a stinker, it is now a common household word.) Isn't my mom so beautiful.  To this day she has yet to age...I hope I can keep up with her.  People will be asking if we are sisters when we hang out.

Heather and Mom

On our trip to California in May.

Sherry and her mom, Shirley.

Sherry and her brother, Todd.  Aren't you freezing mom? And quite the face!

Sherry and her little boy, Matt (my awesome brother).

Young, cute Sherry.

Sherry and her Dad, two awesome hikers/golfers.

Christmas is Comming

So we copied my brother and posted this movie.  We watched thier movie too many times and had a good laugh, so we thought we'd pass it along.  Enjoy!

Random Happenings

Last night we had tacos, one of our favorite meals...we decided to take a picture or two...I know they are really classy.

Morgan not too happy about participating in the photo shoot. Oh well.

Taco Tara.  She loves hard shell tacos with cheese and sour cream.  What a character!

Refried Beans, YUMMM!

Eric/Dad? Is that you?

So this is Morgans outfit of choice yesterday. Yes we love the socks.  Grandma gave them to Tara and she loves them.  But apparently Morgan does too!  He wears them almost anytime he can, under his pajamas, to church (and yes the girls behind us were laughing at his socks), and all around the house.  What can you do?

My sister-in-law Honor wrote a comment on how a dirty child is a happy child.  I just thought I would document that for her.  She was 100% correct.  I love having a big fenced in yard.

My sleeping little angel, Alex.  Too cute!

Here is a picture of the kitchen area with Alex sitting in his bouncer.

Last Friday we had a fire outside and made dinner. It was a ton of fun! Here are Tara and Morgan.

And here is our Fire Master, Eric...what a guy!  Like our walmart clearance fire pit?

Here is Alex all bundled up. He liked watching the fire and was so relaxed he fell asleep.  Surprising?

The Cutest Little Girl

So while looking for pictures today, I came across this video of Tara when she was just shy of 3 years old.  It made me smile and feel all warm and fuzzy inside.  Life has gone by so quickly and my once small baby girl is a big girl.  I hope you enjoy her little song as much as I did.
