Once there was a snow man...

We headed up to Graf yesterday and came across a Snowman on steroids!
I guess building a gi-normous snowman is better then whining about all the cold and snow!



Being our first big trip out for Garrett since he's done wearing diapers Kevin stopped along the way to teach him out to "potty" outside. He thought it was pretty cool! I'm so so proud of him. And so so happy we don't have to buy diapers anymore!

my little artist!

I'm so so happy Amarisa, who LOVES drawing, did not get my artistic ability!




Here she is with her latest drawing. STITCH! Not too shabby for a 4 year old! Heck, it's better then I could do!

snow snow go away come again...

umm never mind don't come again! I love the snow when it's so white and bright and beautiful. But does it really have to dump on us on the few days I actually NEED to leave the house and get things done??









Gotta love winter!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA!


Grandma and her Dionne Doll. Her sister bought her this doll and she still has it today. As a little girl I LOVED to sit and look at this doll.

Grandma has lived in 2 houses her WHOLE life! The one she was born in. The one she and Grandpa bought when they were married. And now with Dad and Mom in Utah. This is the house she and Grandpa bought and lived in for over 50 years!

Grandma pretends she's quiet and meek. HA I have proof she has a WILD SIDE too!

She had 4 GREAT kids.

Who I'm sure were PERFECT teenagers HA!

She will always be a BEAUTIFUL woman that I have learned so much from!

Grandma has now burried her parents, her husband and her siblings. But she is far from being alone. She has 4 children, 3 "in-law" children, 17 grandchildren, 10 "in-law" grandchildren 23 great-grandchildren and 1 more great grandchild on the way.

I love you Grandma! I hope you have a wonderful day and know how truly loved you are!
