I love to see the Temple!!

WOW...right! I am finally posting something new!! So just a brief update on our crazy life here in the big town of Orangeville...This week has been a really good week for us! I have realized that I own my kids more credit than what I often give them! On Wednesday we went to the Draper Temple openhouse! That's right...I may actually have surpassed the insanity state...I took them (all 3) by myself!! It was great!! They were incredibly good while we were there, and what a neat experience for them to be able to see where Aunt Jasha and Gary are getting married! Though Tayvi was a bit upset when she realized that she didn't actually get to see them get married there that day... :( But all in all...a successful trip!! We are so blessed...that's all...just blessed!! Here are a few pics (from my phone - hence the super good quality!) of our day at the temple!! ENJOY!!

Like Mother...Like Daughter!!

Yesterday was quite an adventurous day for Tayvi...

She frequently climbs on the cupboards,

Jumps around on the furniture, and does all

kinds of tricks around the house!

Well, who knew that it would be a time that

she wasn't doing any of those things

that this would happen...

OUCH!!

She was getting down from a bar stool...
and slid back too fast...
and went right to the floor,
smacking her chin on the stool on her way down!

We made a little trip to the clinic...

Where Tayvi was really brave!!

She got two numbing shots in her chin...

and only cried on the second one!

Then she got two stitches!

She wouldn't let me hold her hands,

she jerked them away and put them under

her back! I think I had a harder time with

it than she did!! Not fun at all!!

**for those of you who haven't seen my head,

it is covered with scars! The most stitches

I got at one time was 25! Logan says I

have a Harry Potter scar! Too bad I don't have

his magic too!!

My Baby is Growing Up!!

Yesterday, Conley was 14 months!And Mom decided that it was time...
For her to let him grow up...a little :)

Conley's First Haircut!!

Isn't he handsome!!

He's such a sweet little guy...
Love you Con-Bon!

Holiday Fun!!

Christmas Time was great!

We had the whole family together!!

This is the "Tayvi Pose" in our

Traditional Family Pajama Picture!!

Logan with his super cool new skateboard!

Now we just have to wait for the snow to melt to test it out!

Tayvi got a Baby Alive that really goes potty!

She was so excited about her "Pee Baby"

Conley thought it would be best if he had

clean teeth before we headed down to open gifts!!

Grandpa Todd is a huge Packers fan!!

For Christmas he thought it would be great to

get the kids all geared up!! Don't they look great! :)

And What is Christmas break without a little

SNOW FUN!! Here are Logan and Grandpa pulling

the sled! And the lucky riders are...

...Tayvi and Mom!! We had so much fun!

I know, I know...I look amazing my snow gear!

You should've seen the moon boots...someday I'll get a picture

of those! :)

Logan got a turn to ride too! He had a great time flying

across the snow! The tracks all over made for some good air time!

Well, there's a brief glimps of our Holiday! All-in-all

we had a great time! Hope everyone else did too!!

And here's to a GREAT NEW YEAR!!
