Yes I am here!

Do you ever have those times in your life where you feel like you are behind on everything? I feel like that now. I don't know why I am behind but I am going to start getting better. I hate being behind on things. I would much rather be a few days ahead. Anyways, let me update you on my life. We had a wonderful Christmas full of lots of toys, fun, and cold weather. Baby L's birthday is coming up soon and he will be one! Scot is in his last semester of school!!! Then we will hopefully get a job and move somewhere fun.

My Mother-in-law is a photographer and when we get together with her she takes great pictures of our family. Here is a cute one she did of Princess.

I love this on of Crazy man!


Here is a cute one of Baby L

Baby L has gotten so big over night it seems like. He is into everything! He pulls books off the shelves he knocks over towers that his siblings have made and cause all kids of troubles. Here is a picture of his latest discovery...

Thats right Toilet Paper!

Grumpy Day

Princess woke up yesterday morning and said, "Mom I didn't sleep well last night so I am going to be grumpy today."

At least I got a warning.

Halloween Fun!

The kids went Trick or Treating three times at different events in our community. They got to pick out their four favorite candies and the rest is going to Scot's classmates. I would rather the college students have a sugar high then my kids. The kids had a fun time dressing up and I think I had the cutest Superman, Snow White and Tiger!

Dance Class

It was Parent day at dance class last week. The class showed us everything they have learned and the dance they are doing from the upcoming recital. Princess LOVES dance and gets so excited when it is time to dance.
Princess's best friends


Getting warmed up

crazy man and his friend were enjoying class too!

we had so much fun watching Princess dance! I can't wait till her recital

Good Bye Old Friend

When we got back from Houston we tried to start old Betsy up. The problem was Betsy didn't start. We hooked her up to the van to jump it and it started then stopped and never started again. We talked to my brother-in-law who knows a lot about cars and he said it may not be worth fixing. As you can see Betsy has seen better days. It was a sad day when big Mike (junk yard guy) came and took Betsy away. There are so many memories in this car. This was our first car and all the kids were brought home from the hospital in this little car. In honor of Betsy I made I list of things I will miss about her:
1. The way she would shake when I hit 60 mph
2. The way it took her 1/2 hour to heat up in the winter
3. She had expensive taste and always want the newest parts
Last but not least Betsy loved the color red so much she had to have all shades even rusty red. Here's to you Betsy may you enjoy the junk yard forever!

Internship part 2

While we were in Texas we decided to go to the temple. Scot and I took turns going inside and staying outside with the kids. The grounds were very pretty (like at every temple) so we had fun walking around. Here are some pictures I took of the kids at the temple.

Internship Part 1

In Houston there are so many things to do. If we did everything we wanted to we would have had no money left, so we had to pick our favorite things to do. We love going to museums! We went to three really fun museums while we were there (we went to the Nature Center but I don't think it counts as museum). Houston had a Natural History museum, Children's Museum, and the Health and Medical Science museum. You can probably guess who choose what museum, but if you are stumped... Scot choose Natural History, the kids choose the Children's museum and yes I choose the Health museum. They were all so much fun!


Natural History Museum

Crazy man is really into super heroes. He saw this rock and said, Mom look kriptonite."

When Scot and I get rich, Scot said he would but this for me. I girl can dream right?!

This was in the Health museum. It was a random exhibit but so much fun. We learned the different things people do to create cartoons.

In the Health museum we also learned about the food guide pyramid. I am the only one who got giddy in this museum. I know it's my inner nerd.

This is me now and this is me at age 80

This children's museum was so much fun here are a couple pictures from that.
