Ringing in the New Years

New Years Eve was 'Rockin' and thanks to Tragon (sorry T couldn't resist!) I have the pictures to prove it. We headed down to the annualSt. George first night for a few hours with some friends. The kids saw the lights, climbed the rock wall and were ready to take the party back to our house where there is heat and a fireplace. As always, Jayden posed with his crazy faces when her wasnt busy climbing the wall with Dads help.

Caleb's an old pro and rang the bell - Cooper decided to climb the wall without his jacket so it wouldn't get in the way.

As the count down came close Caleb was sure to round up all of the adults to come in and see the peach (what happened to the ball?) drop and cheer in a new year. Jayden made it ... but just barely!

All in all it was a fun night - if not exhausting staying up so late. I must be getting old...

Rare sight indeed

Yes, snow in St. George. Luckily I was able to make it to town early enough to snap a few pitures before the snow melted. The blue patch in the sky was the only blue we saw that day.

I am really going to get serious this year (thinking 2009 already!) about keeping in better touch. This blog is my New Years Resolution! Over the past few weeks we have been lucky enough to have some family visit. It has been fun to watch neices and nephews together. A highlight this Christmas season for our boys has been having cousins spend the night and playing in the snow! We ended up with over a foot at one point - it even snowed on Christmas Eve giving Jeremy and the boys their first White Christmas!

June means PARTY TIME!

Happy Birthday Avery! Yesterday we went over to my sisters to celebrate her daughters 4th birthday. Happy Birthday!!!

She adores her cousin Caleb and spent the first hour with her arms wrapped around him or sitting on his lap. Caleb has a soft spot for her as well and loves the attention she gives him ...

It was fun to see Tu Tu surrounded by a few of her 22 grandkids.... will they all out grow her!?!

The kids had a blast just running around the house and playing

Caleb and Baylee are finally learning what it is like to be the one climbed all over!

After a few presents the party is a success. Avery is one happy little princess!
