Emily's Haircut

On Monday I took Emily with me so we both could get a haircut.  We have not cut her hair since she was about 7 months old and it needed a trim.  People comment all the time about the length of her hair, saying that it is getting so long.  Of course she repeats this and will tell people, "My hair is getting so long."  My little girl is getting so big!
 Before
 She was surprisingly cooperative.  She even wanted to go first.  She sat still and was so good!
 After
I wanted to keep it long so I only had a few inches taken off.  It is a little easier to wash and comb now.  I can't believe how big she is getting.  We are starting to consider dance classes and preschool...yikes!

Playing in the Park...again

Wow!  The weather has been so incredible.  Unless you are Trevor and you want a snow storm for snowboarding.  Oh well!  We love it!  We could not resist going to the park again today.  There are so many great parks around here.  This one is one of our favorites.  I was surprised that when we actually got to the park, it was WARM!!!  We didn't need jackets or anything.  It was so pleasant.  Too bad nap time came or we would have stayed all day!
 
 
 Emily loves the tunnel at this park.  We had her birthday party there last year and I had to go get her out of the tunnel to have cake and ice cream.  She had been hiding out in there.

 "I am so strong, I can hold this platform over my head!"

This was Annie's second time in the swing.  The first time she cried and hated it.  I tried again about 20 minutes later and she still hated it, so I put Emily in the back of the swing and she (Annie) loved it!  She sure does love her sister!
 

 Annie waving at Emily...she loves her!
By this point Annie was getting silly!  She was so tired she would laugh every time I pushed her in the swing.  It was ridiculously funny!

Playing in the Park

We have had beautiful weather this past week.  Today we went and had a picnic at the park with the cousins to take advantage of our spring in January.  It was such a blast!  We were there for nearly 2 hours and I didn't even realize it.  Emily is getting big enough (and not nearly as clumsy) that she can safely play on the playground.  There is a Toddler Playground and a regular playground.  She went back and forth between both, just enjoying herself.  And Annie was thrilled to have a wide open field of grass for her to crawl around in with nobody bothering her.  We hope that this gorgeous weather continues and we can have more days at the park and more cousin play dates!

Post for the Year

Time to play some major catch up.  Life has been busy and blogging seems to be the last thing on my list.  It's difficult to do when the kids are awake and I don't have the energy or the patience after they go to sleep.  It seems that uploading pictures onto Blogger takes FOREVER.  So here is a major picture overload of the last few months.

Trevor and Trenton's Birthday
Family Portraits (by Randi!)


My Birthday

 Trevor's work party at Fiesta Fun

 Fun times at Staheli Farm





 Halloween
We got a play kitchen from my friend and put it outside before moved it inside.  Emily couldn't wait and wanted to play with it immediately.
Annie being sad.
Thanksgiving
Trevor had to work so we spent the day with my brother's family and had a late dinner when Trevor got off.  It was lots of fun just hanging out.


My apple pie that was DELICIOUS!

When Emily gets really excited she laughs like this.  Everyone always thinks she is crying.  This was my sister's birthday while she was blowing out the candles.
Santa Clause
 
Lighting the Christmas Lights at the Temple
My entire family was in town for Christmas.  It was lots of fun to spend time with everyone and difficult to try to spread our time evenly between Trevor's family and my family, but I think we made it work.  Besides just spending time together, we attended my niece's (the oldest of the cousins) baptism and passed around the flu bug.
Annie and her cousin Britton.  Britton is 1 month younger than Annie.



Our New Years was very relaxing.  We went to my older brother's house and just hung out with their family and my little brother.




Ray and Trevor found the old Nintendo system that they used to spend hours playing when we were dating.  Trevor would come visit me in Rexburg and they would play while I went to class and Sarah was at work.  So silly!

Emily and Annie having a tea party.  Super Cute!  They play together so well now.  It is so much fun!
A few weeks ago my grandpa got remarried so we all headed up north to attend the wedding.  Another opportunity to see my parents!  It was a quick trip, but really enjoyable.  After the wedding we had a family ice cream social.
My dad, Kailey (Kathryn's youngest), and Kathryn (my sister)
Kathryn and Alan (my youngest brother)
Mi Madre
Trevor and Annie

Kassidy (Kathryn's oldest)
Emily enjoying her 4th or 5th bowl of ice cream
Sarah (sister-in-law) and Rylee (Ray and Sarah's youngest)

These other pictures are just cute ones of the girls.  They are sisters for sure.  Loving each other one minute and fighting the next.
