Get ready for major picture overload.
I love these cute boys. Just thought I'd let ya know.
In September Michael had a hearing up near Atlanta, GA. I love when we get to tag along. We visited my aunt and uncle and then went to the Coca-Cola museum and the Olympic Park. Lots of fun. These kids were just amazed by the concept of all you could drink soda.
This year some friends and I decided to do a little preschool for our 3 year olds. We even took a field trip to a local fire station. Jessica was so glad that we decided to go on a day she was off school.
End of last year were the months of trips. Michael's former job was coming to an end (hooray!) and he had a lot of unused airline credit that was about to expire. So he whisked the kiddos off on some pretty cool father-son/daddy-daughter dates. First Benjamin got to experience true cold when they went to Utah for General Conference and a BYU football game. Fun!
Next was Jessica's turn. She got to go with Michael to New York and see Niagra Falls as well as LDS Church history sights in Palmyra, including the Sacred Grove.
Lastly it was Chandler's turn. They actually didn't fly anywhere. They went with a group of friends up to Atlanta for the Atlanta Aquarium, lunch at The Varsity, and more BYU football.
(Best babysitter EVER!)
Benjamin's face here is just too funny not to share.
Fun with dry ice.
Halloween!
Beach days are the best!
The kids wanted elf costumes. Yep, I have some amazing skills. :)
Chandler helped as we looked for the perfect Christmas tree.
Jessica was Michael's side-kick in hanging lights outside.
Thanksgiving!!
Happy birthday to me! I think I'm the only one in the family that gets a store-bought cake since it's the only birthday I'm not in charge of getting it. :)
Decorating Christmas cookies.
A good friend made our family some amazing nativity costumes! The kids thought this would be a great activity Christmas Eve night.
And look who lost her first tooth! Woo Hoo!
Christmas morning! These kiddos have been little jumping beans ever since they discovered this out back (and yes, it has the net on now).
Another view of baby #4 - A BOY!!
3 handsome boys before church.
Benjamin's face kills me!
The girls.
A rare photo - Michael and I together. Jessica is turning out to be a pretty good photographer.
Our little dare-devil was SO thrilled with the chance to do a trampoline/bungee cord jump at the mall. This girl has no fear.
Chandler is a little stud on his bike.
Benjamin loves taking rides with Daddy on his skateboard.
Oh, and she climbs trees too. :)
This was our adventure today for Jessica's day off of school - a 15 minute train ride down to Orlando. Super fun!
No promises on when you'll get another update. I hope you enjoyed a peek into our fun times for the past few months!
