| Marcus had his first band concert. Waiting for their turn to perform. |
 |
| He even had a little part where it was only him playing. Each child got a chance to do that. |
 |
| Look at this price!!!! ....and yes, I paid it because I wanted a Dutch Rhubarb pie that bad!!! |
 |
| Can I tell you it was soooo good!!!! |
 |
| Mackenzie got a Barnes and Noble gift card from the Bird family and so she finally spent it. She got a book and a journal. She got Flowers in the Attic and Petals in the Wind. Flowers in the attic was the first series of books I ever read. |
 |
| Marcus spent his gift card to Hobby Lobby from Papa and Grandma Katy. New brushes and a couple paint markers and a canvas and he still has money left. He always likes to leave a little left on a gift card so he can go back again. :) |
 |
| I rescued this plant last week and another one that looks just like it. Someone moved out of a house near ours and they were sitting on the edge of the driveway with a sign that said "take me"....so of course, I took them. I gave one to my girlfriend Heather. I love a good find!!! |
 |
| My cousin came for a quick visit from Alaska before heading up to the Grand Canyon for a 2 week work training trip. It went fast but we stayed busy and got to catch up a lot. We went hiking and then went to the Botanical Gardens...the weather was great! |
 |
| I just felt like taking a picture of Annie taking a picture. :) |
 |
| It was so good to see her!! |
 |
| I love getting to watch her cheer. |
 |
| She is enjoying it and all the girls get along really well. |

| Ive been working on crocheting boot cuffs. The ideas are endless. You can add buttons and lace to get creative. Im still fine tuning my crocheting skills so Im just doing simple, basic cuffs for now. This was my first one. I quickly realized that these won't really do well here as it doesn't get super cold here. So I shortened the cuff on my next set and added a scalloped edge. |
 |
| I gave that pair to Heather! :) |
 |
| These are more plain...I just wanted to share some of what Ive done. Hope you are all enjoying the holiday and Happy New Year!!! |
 |
| Ever since Mackenzie was born Mitch has made sugar cookies with kids. I think that is a super special tradition that he shares with them and I know they will always remember that. |
 |
 |
| My boys! |
 |
| Making memories. |
 |
| Olaf from the movie Frozen |
 |
| The tree was beautiful! |
 |
| This is the Genie from Aladin; it is completely made out of Legos and was hanging from the ceiling. It was huge! |
 |
| Pooh!!! :) |
 |
| We stood in line and watched them make these treats. They make it look so easy! |
 |
| We had breakfast with the characters. My kids weren't super thrilled at getting their picture taken over and over so Im only posting a few. |
 |
| As fun as Disney was, my teen had to keep up with her friends...we all had a great time and we conquered every ride that we wanted!! |
