She wiggles too much!

Gwen is getting increasingly difficult to POSE some pictures with. She is all over the place, so some of the "cute" shots I try to capture blur, or she isn't framed anymore.=) She is not caring that I want to document her cuteness.
I also included the pony tail picture at the end because we recently got the tiny bands. She looks so much older with the ponytail!







Fun place for Gwen to go... she loves the fridge, but tonight was the first time she tried to climb up!


Birthday Party

Eve had a fun birthday today. They did nails, hair, makeup and even got a chance to soak their feet and do pedicures. Eve picked her cake out from Costco, and even Gwen had a fun time with it. I don't think Gwen ate as much as played. I am glad that Eve had such a fun afternoon with her friends.

We couldn't resist another walking update!

Sorry it is sideways, I don't know how to rotate it.

She is getting pretty good at this!

Pianist




Gwennie likes to reach up and play the piano, I think she is very pleased that she can! I am pleased to, I think that there is a sweet spirit to the home when music is played and I am glad my children want to contribute.

Let it Snow!

We started the week with snow and ended it with snow. I can certainly tell that the temp is 15-20 degrees warmer today that it has been earlier in the week also. Although they were freezing, the kids had fun trying to make a snowman out of dry snow earlier this week.











We are happy that we are living here in the snow of Utah. I am also glad that I borrowed an old shovel from my dad so I could shovel snow. Good cardio, I think.

Christmas Tree and GrahamCracker House Decorating

Grandma invited all the grandkids to her house to make gingerbread houses out of grahams. These kind of houses are traditions for our kids to do. We were happy to share the fun with Jeremy and Aunt McKell and Uncle Andy too.







We actually decorated our trees the day before Thanksgiving. The kids had a lot of fun because I let them do it theirselves, except I put on the lights. Usually I only let them do the kid themed tree, and I do the nice matching one. But, this year they did both and Gwen was enamored by it all.

Pictionary


This is the picture that Samantha drew a few months ago for a game of pictionary that we played.


If you will notice, there is an orange with a peeler, and then a picture of someone peeling the orange, again.


The word was "REPEAL". I just loved it and have meant to scan it in and share for quite a while.
