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

My Birthday

 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.

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.

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