Perm Day

I decided to get perm, again. I loved the last one I had. I still mostly would wear my hair straight, but with the perm it has more body and holds that style better. After the rollers are in I have to wait 20 minutes.

Rinsing and taking out the rollers.

The finished product. Remember, I don't plan and wearing it straight very often, it's curly here because I'm not allowed to wash it for the first two days.

Carson's KiKi

So that blanket Carson is totally attached too, he calls "KiKi". And he loves it. He brings it with him everywhere and can't sleep without it. I wanted to add this post so my dear friend Kourtney would see it. Because she is the one who gave KiKi to Carson when he was a baby.

The Coast in the Winter

We took a day trip to the coast today! Couldn't keep Carson out of the water.

It's freezing cold, but that's not going to stop kids from playing in the 40 degree water.

The kids love playing with Aunt Lindsey

The kids

Here's the lastest of the kids. They love to be outside, and we try to take advantage of any weather that isn't raining.

New Tile

Lance and his Dad put new tile in the kitchen last week! This is a before picture. Another before picture.



They are about half way done here.

Almost done.

Looks great! This is before the grout was added, which is all done now, but I forgot to take another picture of the totally finished product, but you get the idea!

Erica's New House

This post is for Dad, Devin, Shannon, Monica and Trisha, so they can see a little bit of Erica's new house. Keep in mind, it's the middle of winter, but come spring and summer, the landscaping here is beautiful!

This picture was to show where the shop is in relation to the house. The driveway is a giant circle. You can only see a portion here.




Here is the house only, not showing the garage.

This is the back patio, which comes off the kitchen in the back of the house. It can also be seen from the master and one of the bedrooms.

Looking from the kitchen to the playroom upstairs, and an extra living room area downstairs.

4H Horse Bowl

Here we are at horse bowl!!! Waiting for our turn! Go Instide!!

Here are some of our girls right before the competition begins. They ended up placing fourth as a team. A great job!




There were oral presentations going on that day as well. This team got reserve champion, and so did another one of our team members in a different division.

Party! Party! Party!

The first of Sydney's parties was at school. This was cupcakes brought in by another parent. I brought in drinks and balloons.

In her kindergarden class

This is the cake I made for her party at home with friends.

Waiting for guests to arrive.

Party games.

All the friends went to the park.

Playing at the playground.

The pinata.

Diving for candy.

The Princess and the Pea

Sydney was in a play called The Princess and the Pea. The production was put on in only one week. So there were rehearsals every night for several hours. This is one of the rehearsals.

Lots of waiting for Sydney. Aunt Lindsey helped entertain the kids.




Getting into costume on preformance day. Sydney's role was that of a "dust bunny".

Eating lunch between the two shows.
