Pictures

Here are some photos from the holidays and what we have been doing recently! I am so behind so only photos and short notes about everything! I hope you enjoy =]

One of my favorite ornaments.

The star on our tree.

Items from my mantle.

More of the mantle.

The wreath i made for this holiday season...i love it!

Christmas at Nana's house. They are admiring the gift i made them in this picture.

Christmas at Grandma Nisha's and Grandpa Harold's House.

Christmas morning at our house. The boys enjoying their presents. Daddy and Aiden are also in the tent that Dillan is crawling into.

Aiden giving me the sink eye because he couldn't open his present. Daddy bought foil lined wrapping paper that wouldn't even rip.

Dillan Christmas morning. Love his big brown eyes!

Recently we went to the park with my brother and his girlfriend for a picnic. It was alot of fun and the kids had a blast!!

Aiden's signature face. He gets it from his favorite movie The Nightmare Before Christmas.

I love these boys!

Aiden picked an orange on our walk around the park.

A couple days ago our toilet had plugged and overflowed our bathroom. After much plungering i was done and had come to the conclusion that something was flushed by one of the boys. I interrogated Aiden and got absolutely nothing from him. Since Dillan isn't old enough to tell me anything except he is hungry or needs a diaper change, i figured it was him. My dad came by to give it a look and he had to move the toilet outside to get whatever it was that was jammed inside of it, out. I heard him laughing outside and i knew he had gotten it out. Low and behold it was a half eaten apple. I knew it was Dillan all along!

My little rugrat Dillan also got into some more trouble this morning. He brought the powdered sugar from this morning's french toast down from the counter and all of the floor and himself. Ofcourse Aiden was right there next to him. It made for some cute pictures and one sticky floor!


Until next time!

2011 In Review

So 2011 has been such an eventful year. I can not wait for all the exciting things that 2012 brings. So here is a quick update on the family. Christmas was awesome as usual. Its so great to see all the family members and be able to celebrate the birth of our savior. I am still a working mom. It is so hard sometimes but i know it will be worth it in the long run. It is also nice that i work at the same place as my husband, easier transport wise and we get to take lunches together...who wouldn't want that?! We have been going back and forth about weather or not to move. We absolutely love Calimesa and the seclusion it has. Also seeing the cows on the hill in front of a sunrise is pretty awesome too! But we would like to be closer to both of our families and would love to move back to Redlands. But as of right now we are staying put!
The boys are doing amazing. Aiden is now a sunbeam and it is so cute to see him during primary. We are the teachers for valiant 9 so we watch his every move! Dillan is supposed to be in the nursery but he is in the transitioning phase of clinging to mommy and actually going into the nursery. They spend their time with both grandparents while me and Cody are at work. We know that they are in good hands.
The husband also got me a spiffy new camera which is currently my 2nd love..but shh don't tell Cody that!
Life is flying by so fast i wish it would stop so that i can catch up with all the things that are happening. I hope to have some more updated photos for your viewing pleasure soon! So until next time! =]
