Fun in the Snow

We couldn't resist going out in the snow today. It was beautiful and the kids had a blast. We just took a walk around the block and enjoyed the wonderful snow falling down. It was a wonderful family outing for us. Daisy enjoyed the running and playing too.

New dog, beautiful & funny kids, new couches

This blog is going to be all jumbled together with odd pictures but these first two pictures are mostly for my Kya. She wanted to see our puppy and I told her that I would post some pictures of her on the blog. So here you go Kya! Her name is Daisy Mae and she is half black lab half golden retreiver. The kids love her! Me not so much. LOL


Here is Bailey eating her first table food meal and it just happened to be spaghetti. She loved it and we didn't even have to teach her to suck it up.
Dress up with Rianne is always fun. We were trying on her birthday dresses to see which one would fit the best for grandpas funeral. This one is from us but it is still a little big.
This one was from Great Grandma Joan. It came with the matching doll dress. As soon as we got the dress on Rianne she immediately got down and went to find June her doll. She came back in and said "icture icture". It was too cute!
Bailey is now standing up all over the house. She is growing up way too fast.
Here is Colvert hanging from his pants. Colvert was doing something he wasn't supposed to be doing, of course. All of a sudden, he started yelling for me. I went in and this is what he looked like. His pants got stuck on the spring of his tramp. We just had to take a picture.

We got a call from one of our bishopric members that a family was moving and had a nice hide-a-bed couch and love seat that they wanted to give to someone in the ward and they thought about us. We are so grateful because our last couch was horribly broken and uncomfortable. So here are our new but used and very comfortable couches.

This is just a video of the kids playing with Daisy Mae. You can also see our new couches a little bit. I am just so excited that I figured out how to download a video on my blog.
