Family Pics 2012

The photographer said she didnt even edit her eyes... these are her real color!

His Eyes.... Mesmerizing!

Of course moments before this pic was shot he fell in a puddle of mud (knees)

My beauty

I love how this captures all of our personalities!

I had to get some in her baptism dress!

My Nephews wedding

My Nephew and his adorable wife asked me to provide the music for his wedding, it was soo much fun and an honor! Congratulations to the beautiful couple!

Christmas Morning 2011

R got a giant turtle tunnel tent, which he loved and we literally couldn't get him out of it to open any more gifts! Good job Mom!

We had such a nice Christmas! Thank you family, thank you economy, and thank me for working so hard this year :)

S got some Knee high Plaid Converse, she LOVES!

C got a ball maze, which he is very perplexed with! I love how we all look homeless in our pictures this year!

Namaste!

Funny Story...  Those of you who have done yoga might know there is a 8-10 minute silent resting period to clear your mind, relax from the intense workout, and imagine yourself alone on a beautiful beach at the end of each class, so this week during that silent moment my kids were playing in the provided playroom off to the side, (I guess I am the only person who doesn't have someone at home to watch kids at 9 pm) It was sooo quiet and peaceful, and then as loud as you can imagine, my 8 year old daughter yells at the top of her lungs "YOU ARE THE WORST BROTHER I EVER HAD!!!" To none other than her 3 year old brother... Laughter broke the silence and instead of all of us imagining we were on a quite beach, we were all at a McDonald's play place... Humiliating....Nameste!

Date with my Son

 On my date with C We went miniature golfing! I had no idea how competitive I was... and yet how GOOD 
"C" was at mini golf! LOL.... HE is GOOD!

I did get a hole in one...

We had a lot of fun! Then we had ice cream and bonded... C can TALK! He always has soo much to say. But I love it! He has so much wisdom, and I am soo lucky to be his mom!

Date with my Daughter

So Lately I have been trying to "Date" each of my kids once a month when their Dad takes the others so I can spend some one on one time with each of them. So S and I went on a date to the Provo Temple grounds and had a pic-nick with our Favorite foods, Taco Time and Sweet Tooth Fairy :)

We laid out a blanket and We watched the Sunset together and Had a really good talk about the temple. Then we found some fascinating bugs on the temple grounds..

Then we came home to watch a "Mary Kate and Ashley movie together, have a sleep over in my room and make a craft,  AND this is what we came up with.. of course using YARN... LOL, one for each of the boys too!  It was a great night! I love you S!

Getting the Fam together
