Alycia's Birthday

Alycia had her birthday party at the Rec center, she enjoyed swimming and playing with her friends.

I made Alycia a new blanket for her birthday, her other one was really torn up.

Alycia loved her Polly Pocket cake, a friend made it for her, she did a great job.

Tyler's birthday

We had Tyler's birthday party at the Rec Center. The kids went swimming and then we had cake and ice cream and presents. Tyler had fun, and was fun that his cousins could be there too.

A friend made this cake for me, she did an awesome job, Tyler loves baukugan and so we took some of his toys and used them for the cake, he loved it.

Tyler's baptism

Tyler was baptized on Sat. Feb 27, 2010. We had family and friends come out for the occasion. It was really nice to see them again. We are so happy for Tyler and his decission to be baptized, was a great day.

Friends

Shannon playing in the snow.

We met some of our friends at the Denver temple and watched their kids for them. My kids were so excited to see their friends since we moved. It had snowed the night before so was cold, but that didn't stop the kids from having fun. The older kids got into a snowball fight.

Some of the kids in front of the temple.

All the kids but Shannon on the bridge.

Kids climbing over the fence to get to the park area.

Alycia and AJ found a nice warm spot, so cute, I just had to take a picture.

valentines

For Valentines Ed and I went out to dinner and Ed got me these pretty flowers. Ed gave Alycia a heart Locket, Alycia was so excited she has been wanting a necklace for a long time. Daddy's little princess. I got the boys gifts too but didn't take a picture, shame on me. Made them all a nice dinner and enjoyed it as a family, since it was on Sunday. Happy Valentines Day to you all!!

Valentines

Tyler's school Valentines party, he had pizza. YUM YUM!!

Alycia at her classroom Valentines Party, she had fun decorating her bag for her valentines to go into.

Aaron and his class, they did a breakfast party, had lots of yummy food, waffles, pancakes, bacon, sausage, muffins, eggs, fruit, donuts, was so much fun.

For church did this heart shape braid, thought it was cute, and Alycia loved it. A good Valentines hair do.
Alycia making sugar cookies, she loves rolling out the dough.

tabby

On Monday we had to put our dog Tabitha (Tabby) to sleep. It was a really hard decission, but couldn't stand seeing her in pain any longer. The week before she started walking slow, no more hyper Tabby jumping on you. She didn't want to walk much and didn't follow you around, was really sad, then on Thursday she quit eating, but did eat some people food. I knew she was REALLY bad on Sunday when we gave her meat and she didn't eat it. So on Monday I took her to the vet and he said it wasn't good. By listening to her heart he thought she ruptured a heart valve. He said we could do an x-ray and see, but rather it is cancer, tumors or the heart and lungs he said it really wan't fixable. So I made the decission to have her put to sleep. Before I took the kids to a friends so I could take her in I had pictures done with them and her. You can see Tabby doesn't look like she feels well. We have enjoyed her in our home for the passed 11 years and sad to see her go, she was a great dog.
