Happy Anniversary Kate and Clark!

A year ago today!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

to my AMAZING mom, and incredible sisters!

I love you all!

Em's Baby shower

Here are some pics from Em's baby shower. Wish everyone could have been there!

Of course...some pictures of the food. Brooke, we had that pasta salad...it's so good.

Twinkie Babies

One of the games we played was to make twinkie babies...like so. Mine's the one on the right, the one in the middle is Aunt Karen's.

The one pooping is Aunt Lori's. Emily got to pick which one was the cutest, or which one she would want her baby to look like.

And the winner was...Angie! (Brett's sister)

And here's a fake shower picture. I didn't get any pictures of Em opening presents during the shower, so I made her pose after. She got some really cute things. Can't wait for the little baby to come! And Carrie's too! :)

Monterey and Salt Lake

Remembering Grandpa

I was going through some older pictures on my computer and came across these I took at grandma and grandpa's a few years ago. We used some of them for the memory book that we put together. I've forgotten how wonderful his yard looked, even when these were taken in November. I'll always remember grandpa in his garden.

Wisteria and Bees!

I love spring, with it's hope of renewal! That these beautiful blossoms come out of brown sticks. I love walking under them, and hearing all the bees buzzing collecting the nectar.

Hope everyone had a nice Easter. Yes, it's true I did sing in the ward Easter choir and enjoyed the beautiful message of the songs. (Okay I may have lip sinced a bit)

Happy Easter!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who remembers mom sewing us all matching Easter dresses each Easter. Having 3 girls, I also felt an irrestible urge to have a little matching going on today. So, Caitlin and Lizzie each got a new skirt. Abby got shafted, since I didn't have time to make her the dress I was planning on, but she didn't seem to mind! These are the skirts I made for the big girls:

These are actually the bridesmaid's skirts that Kate and Em wore at our wedding. I just made them short and small to fit them, and added a little tulle sash in the front. The girls loved them!

It took a few shots to get to that first one I posted. Ah, the joys of children:

Abby's not wearing her church dress since she had an accident in nursery. She's been doing pretty darn great potty-training overall, though. I can't complain over the occasional accident!
