Family Dinner

We had a great dinnner at my cousin Ryan's house to celebrate October birthdays. The kids loved having a new house to explore. They were cracking each other up when they were playing on both sides of the door to her deck.

Conference Weekend

One of our favorite traditions is when our church has General Conference every April and October. We make omelets for breakfast. Yummy! We only wish we were closer to Cam's family to join in the great omelet breakfast!

Maw Maw's Birthday

We had a great time getting together to celebrate Maw Maw's birthday! She took some time to teach Susie all about flowers.

Easter Sunday

We dyed some eggs, went to church, and spent time with family. Busy but beautiful day!

Bed Head!!!

How cute is this?

I only wish I had a little fluffy bunny tail for this pic!

I actually love this pic in Steve and Toni's backyard.

Check out his new birthday wheels!

Christmas Traditions - Christmas Dinner

We got together with our NC family for Christmas dinner. Emmett loves playing with "Papa Steve" and kept begging him to come play. He got a remote control car and a truck, so the boys all had fun playing with that! Susie was perfect as usual, and kept everybody smiling.

Family Time

For the whole 3 days we were in Utah, we ran around visiting family. It was crazy, but wonderful. Everyone got to meet Susie, and Emmett had so much fun with his cousins.

The first time that all 5 new baby girls have been together. (Susie never cries, so of course she cries for this picture)

With Grandpa

The whole family

With my Grandma

With my Grandpa

With his birthday buddy - two years apart to the day. They were laughing so hard!

Picking up apples - I had to teach him not to eat them straight off the ground!

Fun in the backyard

Pretending to be a dog.

This night, E had us all dying laughing. Here he was pretending he had a microphone. He knew he was the star of the show!

E's first football game!

With his cousin Jacob, who had some great plays in the game!

Miss Susie, always smiling!

Asheville Part 2

We stopped at the Western NC Nature Center to let the kids run around and see the animals. It was a really nice place and just the right size for our crew.

I love this picture. Trying to get more than one kid looking at the camera was a joke!

These two were very well behaved!

Roar!

This sign was by the bear area...

Apparently Cam's hands are the size of a bear paw.

The petting area. E was ok with the goats this time.

Checking out a turtle.

I told you they were inseparable. Four strollers weren't enough - M hitched a ride with E! 

Asheville Part 1

My sister and her family came up to Tennessee for her husband's family reunion, and they met up with us in Asheville so we could visit for a day. We had a great time, and the kids loved hanging out. Even the babies! Here are a few fun shots.

At the McDonald's by Biltmore. Fancy Shmancy! E loved the player piano!

I love that they're posing exactly the same!

 

These two were thick as thieves!

The only picture of all six kids. Chaos!
