first post of a new year.

I took down all of the Christmas stuff today. It was sad. BUT.... it does feel good to have our house clean and uncluttered again. It always fun to kinda start fresh at the start of a new year. Yay!

doin' homework

today & the b-ya

Here's Evie doing her famous (at least at our house, thanks to Bella) "WHAT?"

She is as silly as they come.

And here's Em the Grace, making a face, which she is also famous for, while playing

"the pacuter" (one of her very favorite things to do.)

....lately!

Once again, it's been forever since I've posted! I am so sorry, especially to the grandparents and fam who always check in for the latest photos! We love you! I am going to get better at sharing our pics!!! :) So here are some of the latest....

Emma the Tiger/Lion (is it a Liger!?), she helped do a skit

for Kids Church of Daniel and the Lion's Den

Evie's B-day, she turned two & got lots of baby stuff! She is a little mommy now :)

And here's a little pic of Ab's cast. I need to get a better one before it comes off in a week!

Bella at school, she was advanced on her proficiency test last year,

so she got to participate in a little award night

Port San Luis

Isn't it incredible? This is a great place to live.

cute fabric

Aren't these cute fabrics? Not that I have them in my hands.... I found them on a "Stuff from Japan" etsy site. Still only like $9 a yard which isn't too bad! I was thinking the girls would look pretty cute in a green elephant skirt... or maybe a little tote for all their goodies. Hmm. Might need to place an order!
