Feeding the Ducks

 70 degrees.  That's why I live in St. George.

 We had early out all week, so we took the opportunity to go and feed the ducks!

 My favorite girl!

 And her bestie Miss Adilyn.

 Handsome, handsome boy!  Kinda almost a man! Eeek!

Scrunchie face!  I love this face.  He makes it all the time and doesn't realize he is doing it.

Alien Hair

Whose that alien sleeping in Pipers bed?

Skating

 Bahahahah!  these pictures were taken in about a 30 second interval.  She was posing and showing off and wham, skates slip out from under her and down she goes.  She wasn't even rolling, just parked on the edge of the curb.  I laughed so hard.  She didn't find it funny.

 How grown up is this kid?  I can hardly believe it!

 I'm not shoving you!  It's just a little love tap to get you started.

 Always my cautious kid.

Cheer-leading jumps in my socks!  Why not?

Presidents Day Picnic

 Got everyone together today for a picnic at Mathis Park.  The weather was so nice!

 Had all the Doty cousins there, so we snapped a picture.  We get together all the time, but we seldom stop to take a picture.

 Ummm, can you say trouble? There is only 3 years difference here.  Can you imagine what it's going to be like when they are say 15 and 18!  Wowza!

Rollerblading boy here spent the whole time rollerblading.

Tyson and Caleb found the mud!  Can you believe it's February and it's warm enough to get wet?  Love it!

Hiking

Just a few pictures from our hike this afternoon on the Dixie rock.

 Tyson say's, "We should use this as our family picture!"  Josh say's "Sure, but Mom's not in it!"  Silly kid.

 This obnoxious little beast is pretty cute!.  She has such beautiful coloring.

 Josh and his "girl".  He is defiantly her human.

Loved this awesome silhouette of the kids. They are pretty rad.

Blanket Fort

This just screams childhood to me.  Sleeping in the blanket fort her brother made for her = AWESOME!

Jump

Shaving

 He's only 11!!!!  I wasn't really ok with this, but it had to happen.

 I can't believe how grown up this kid is.  It is exciting and fun, because he is one of my best friends.

But at the same time it breaks my heart.  He's growing up way to fast!

Children's Museum

Took the kids to the new Children's Museum today.  They loved it.  I wasn't sure if Tyson and JD would like it, but they all had a great time.  We spent 3  hours there just hanging out.  It was super fun!  Piper was obsessed with the wheelchair and asked if I would get her one because she is lazy.  Silly girl!

Miss Pipper

World's cutest girl!  Uncle Gabe brought a bunch of his old military gear and passed it onto my kids.  Piper looks dang cute in it!

Spring Weather

Spring Weather in January.  One of the many reasons that we live in St. George!  Beautiful way to spend an afternoon!

Pedicures and Crazy girls

 One moment of craziness, and Josh saying yest to all these little girls and we had a sleepover on the spur of the moment.

 Josh entertained them all by giving them pedicures and letting them give him one in return.

 He's a good dad!

This much cuteness should not be allowed!

Spa Night

Piper and Jordyn were having a sleepover and wanted to do spa.  So fun!  Jordyn was so stiff and so not relaxed and her cucumbers wouldn't stay on her eyes.  Cute, cute girls!  They make life interesting and fun!

My Big Kids

I love my big kids!  They came to visit us because we had missed them so much while they were in Blanding for the holidays. So grateful to have them in my life!

New Years Day 2014

The traditional shooting of the Gingerbread houses!  A tradition of 7-years in the making.  And one of our favorite ways to end the holiday season. And can I just say that Josh and I have some beautiful children? 

Piper and quite possibly, her most favorite person ever, Uncle Gabe.

This girl is going to be TROUBLE!
