Happy Anniversary!

I just wanted to let my honey know how much I love and appreciate all that he does for me and our family. It's hard to believe that we have been married for 9 years! I used to think people were crazy when they said that time goes by so fast, but I am proved wrong with everyday! 9 years has come and gone and yet it seems only a memory! I couldn't imagine my life any different! I am thankful for our four beautiful girls that we have had together. Everyday I look at you and am more and more in love with you than the first day I knew you were the one for me.

Some things I love about my Husband:
-I love watching him chew on his tongue when he is focusing on something.
-I love watching him play with our girls.
-I love that he loves to take our family to the mountain to go snow mobiling and four wheelin'!
-I love that he doesn't complain when I go and do stuff (even though sometimes I give him a hard time! I'm sorry!)
-I love that he doesn't put pressure on me to be the perfect housewife!
-I love that when I look at him and he gets a half shy smile and says, "what?!"
-I love that he is usually pretty good about doing things around the house that I ask him to do.
-I love that even though I tell him not to get me flowers he always seems to surprise me with them!
Brad, I love you and can't wait for what's to come!
Happy 9th!

Happy Birthday Skylar!

Happy Birthday to our little Sweet Pea Skylar. We can't hardly believe she is one already. She has been such the little addition to our growing family. We have enjoyed this first year we have had with her and will continue to for many more to come. It's just so sad how fast time flies. Skylar, I must say, had quite the time with her first birthday cake. She has been the only one out of our girls to go to town with it! And she literally went to town with it!

Skylar, we love you and we love watching the new things you learn to do. You have quite the silly personality. Things we want to remember about Skylar:

-When she smiles she squints her eyes and does kind of a nosey air laugh and bounces.(I'm not quite sure how else to describe it.)
-She is taking more and more steps on her own. She'll be fully walking any time now.
-All she has to do is squeel and point and she gets what she wants! -She loves her binky unless there is food and then the bink comes out.
-She sleeps really well as long as she has her fuzzy blanket, her binkie, and a sippy cup.
-She loves macaroni and cheese and peanut butter/jelly sandwiches.
-She is a lovey/snuggly baby! You can pick her up and she'll instantly lay her head on your shoulder.
-She loves to pull at my dangly earrings.
-She loves to play with her sisters as long as they don't poke at her too much. She'll just let them know when to stop by screamin'/yellin' at them.
-She loves her big sister Brinly to carry her around. (well as long as she takes her to mom)
-She loves to swing (our other girls took a little longer to like park swings) She is such a good baby and we love and enjoy her so much.

My lil' Sis!

I know it's been almost two weeks since she graduated but this is my little sis. Erika who isn't so little any more. She is the fifth of us girls! It just doesn't seem like it should be that time already!
This is half of us with the exception of my sister Brianna and her family and sister Elicia and her Family and of course my husband Brad who had to work! We did have a few extras in the pic. My very tall and beautiful cousin Andrea and her husband and our sweet Grandma Lila. I hope it turned out to be awesome for you Erika! Congrats and goodluck with more new adventures! First one being moving in with us! That'll be an adventure in and of itself I'm sure!

Girls' Dance recital

So the girls had their year end dance recital last weekend. They have all improved so much even since Christmas. It definitely made it a long day but it was fun and my parents came down to watch them for the first time. The girls loved it! Thanks for making the effort Mom and Dad! Also thanks to everyone else who supported the girls!
