10 years

We celebrated our 10 year anniversary in St. George with our little family and Chris and Karie's family. It was such a fun trip. So grateful for this awesome guy I married. I love him so much!

St. George 2011

We made it our on yearly St. George trip. The drive down was miserable but the rest of the trip was awesome!! The girls did nothing but swimsuits and water. We hit the lake, the pool numerous times and stream. Avery and Mylee love the swimming!
Hudson and Marisa played in the sand forever!
Tristan and all his girls! Don't let him fool ya he loves every second of it.
Avery has turned into a little poser for pictures. It's hilarious! Mylee and Cord having a ball!
Karie and I soaking up the sun. It was such beautiful weather. Hudson and Marisa loved the inch deep water.
Marisa turning into such a happy little girl!

Dance 2011

Avery's little dance recital this year they danced to, "Kiss the Girl" It was so cute! She and her friends had a ball and of course she loved getting flowers from her Daddy!

Soccer 2011

Avery played her 1st year of soccer. She is such a timid little thing so we had to bribe her with a prize for either playing hard the whole season or scoring a goal. About 3 games in she scored a goal off the kickoff and we were all shocked. T took her shopping and she got a new barbie. The rest of the season she went back to playing timid. At least we know our child can be bribed!

Kindergarten Opera

Avery's kindergarten performed an opera that they wrote, painted the scenery, than performed. It was adorable. Avery was a skunk and during her part would turn around and shake her skunk tail while singing, "Stop or we will spray you." It was hilarious! Cutest little skunk I've ever seen. Cordell was a bat and didn't seem too pleased to have to sing his part. He pretty much stood there with him arms folded looking around, but was of course stinking cute. The title was, "The Gingerbread Kids." Avery also drew a picture of the opera and hers got picked to be printed in the program. She was pretty excited about that.

Matching Girls

The girls all dressed for Sunday. Sometimes I just love matching them all together. They are just too much fun to dress up!

Marisa 1st birthday

My baby's 1st birthday. She actually wasn't feeling good so I was glad to get a couple happy moments. I was out of town on her actual birthday so this is the day after. I guess she won't remember anyway.
I love her hair getting a little curl. She such a fun little girl!
The cupcake was bigger than her head. She didn't know quite what to do with it.

Conference 2011

Daddy and his girls enjoying conference. All they ever want to do is lay with Daddy. I think he's running out of room to hold anymore girls.
They wanted to watch the Prophet. They lasted a whole 2 seconds to say they saw, President Monson.

Crazy Mylee

This is the perfect picture of my CRAZY MYLEE. Her crazy hair from being crazy on the trampoline. She's truly my crazy girl.

Sleeping Mylee

2 nights ago I went downstairs in the middle of the night because Mylee came up crying. This was our conversation
Me - Mommy will come lay in bed with you
Mylee - (screaming, crying) Your bed
Me - You want to sleep in my bed
Mylee - No your bed
Me - You want me to sleep in your bed
Mylee - No YOUR BED
Me - You want mommy to sleep in her bed
Mylee - YES
So basically she was crying because she wanted me to sleep in my own bed. Man kid why did you wake me up in the first place. CRAZY Kid!

Valentine's Day 2011

On Valentine's Day, Tristan came home with Pizza and flowers for each of his girls. It was super cute and the girls loved getting flowers from our lovebug, Daddy.

Words to live by

Future Aggie

Mylee went with Daddy to the Aggie game the other night. She was so excited to wear her Aggie cheer outfit. She constantly sings, "Utah State, Aggies all the way, Go Aggies Go Aggies!!!"

When she got home this was our conversation
Mylee - Mom I hold Lexie
Me - What?
Mylee - I hold Lexie
Me - Who?
Mylee - Lexie the cheerleader I hold her and her pom poms. She pretty mommy

We might have a future cheerleader on our hands!
