Sunday Pics

I love to take pictures of my kids on Sundays when they are all beautifully dressed.  I am so glad that I do because they grow up so fast.  If I blink, I might miss it.
During this time of limbo of not finding a house, I need to remember how many blessings I really do have: Eli, Riley and Morgan.

These pictures are from February and March 1st.

Yeah! After Season Sales

So I went to Walgreens to purchase some after Christmas candy and found this awesome piece.  We took it home and after I built the house, the kids decorated it beautifully. I always felt bad that we never did it before, but at this cost, we will do it again, especially since Eli has six weeks off from school (off track and Holiday vacation.)

Winter

This picture shows the epitome of winter to a little girl and the one after shows the after effect; bundled up.  This winter, we didn't get hardly any snow, except for this day. A few days ago, she built a snowman, it included a cute baby carrot nose. She did it all by herself.
The picture at the bottom is a cute baby.

Christmas Memories

Another one of my favorite memories is spending time with Family.  Jason came over and then Jeron's family came up.  They also invited their dog, princess, in which both little girls loved her.

Merry Christmas

This year, we decided to go simple with the presents and only get them 3 presents per kid.  We like to relate this to what the Savior received: Myrrh (and embalming oil, something for the body), Frankincense (burned at the temple, a spiritual gift), Gold (Something of worth, or fun).  I got them shoes for the body, church toys for the spiritual gift and a toy for the fun gift.  This was such a wonderful experience for the kids and so much easier, than trying to buy tons of stuff that they don't always need.  I was worried at first that they would feel at a disadvantage that they didn't get as many gifts.  However, they also received a stocking and gifts from grandparents, cousins and Nae-Nae.  By learning about the Savior, they are blessed beyond gifts.

Twas the Night Before Christmas...

And the little ones don't have sugar plums dancing through their heads yet.  It will be a while before they settle down.  At least they got their cookies/treats to Santa before they got to bed.

Christmas Tree Pants?

I told Riley that the blanket under the Christmas Tree was a Christmas Tree Skirt.  She pulled her pants from the closet and asked if we could give it pants too.  Also, below, we decorated baby.
