Family Photos 2011

 We had our family pictures taken at the BYU-I gardens this year.  I am thankful for my little family. (especially when they are all sitting still and smiling ha ha)
 Ashtyn-10 years old

 Haylee- 8 years old







Brigham...almost six

Macy Turns 2!

On September 8th Macy turned two.  We celebrated on a Monday night during FHE with the McGarry's and then with the Ricks' on her birthday.  She got spoiled twice!
She has been in a phase where she wears my shoes all over the house.  Good thing Grandma got her some shoes that fit her a little better.  She wears them every day now.

 Hanging out by her pile of gifts.  She had no idea that there was some good loot in those things or we probably wouldn't have kept her out of them.
 She got a lot of help opening her gifts and playing with them for that matter. 
 She loves anything princess so this cake was a big hit.  The sucker was also a favorite.  (thanks Grandma!)

 When we got home that night she got to open all of the packages and play, play, play.

 She had a great pre-birthday!
 Now, here is Macy when she is officially two.  She was so excited that we kept telling her it was her Birthday because she now understoon what it meant.  Anytime you ask her how old she is she will tell you three and start to giggle because she knows it isn't right and that I tease her that she is only two.  Funny girl.
 She got a Birthday card in the mail from Grandma and Grandpa Ricks with $2 in it.  How fun!
 Balloons are a lot of fun too!
 We took her to Smith Park for a picnic and to play on the toys while Grandma and Grandpa Ricks came to give her some more gifts. 
 She enjoyed some cupcakes...
and her new tent.   We love you Macy Lou, Happy Birthday!

1st Day of School

 I am playing catch up since things have been busy since school started.  I have three kids in school this year.  They head in different directions at different times but hasn't been too difficult.  Ashtyn started 5th grade which is at the Middle School with Mrs. Kay as her teacher and Mrs. Corbridge as her team teacher.  Haylee is in 3rd grade at Kennedy Elementery with Mr. Lloyd as her teacher.  Brigham finally started Kindergarten!  He has Mrs. Jackson and goes in the afternoon.  So far they have all done really well and are enjoying school.  Macy misses them while they are gone.
 Ashtyn headed off to school.  (Hooray that she gets to ride the bus!)  Haylee is headed off to school on her bike since they no longer will bus the elementary kids (boo to school cuts!)
 Brigham getting ready to leave his little sis behind now that he is off to school.  She is used to have him around. :(
 Meeting his teacher on his first day. 
 My handsome little boy all ready for his first big day.  So happy for him since he has been waiting so long to go!
