Happy Belated New Years!

Here are a few pics of us from New Years. We had too many awesome invites, however, we ended up at my brothers house. Of course - right? We had a great time. I was the designated driver so by midnight I was about to fall asleep! And Josh was too.

This pic was taken in 2009. I was sleepy! ~

I randomly took this picture as the new year rang. It looks like everyone is saying "Happy New Year!" ~

Playing super fun games to pass the time ~

I love these girls! ~

New Years Eve dinner at Tepanyaki!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOURS!

Super Fun Neighbors!

We really enjoy our neighbors. They are all so nice, fun, funny, GENEROUS, etc.
Saturday was such a nice day, all the neighbors ended up outside with the kids, we were all enjoying the refreshing beverages...and before you know it pizza is on the way. I love the spontaneous gatherings, along with the planned gatherings, with our neighbors. The kids also get along so great. It makes it so much fun. Anyway, here a few random pics from the night....

Jared showed up with everyone at our house after a long day at the golf course. He was barely functioning...


I love my Dad. He always seems to make it to everything!!

When I bought my new camera, one of the questions I asked was, can I still take pictures of myself???

Pizza does something for Bob and Katie...it rekindles their affection for each other. Sometimes Jared and I make out over pizza too. :)

the pumpkin patch

I am about a month behind on the whole picture / blogging thing...below are pictures from a local pumpkin patch. We then went to Brian and Lisa's for a fun little halloween party.


what is up with Josh's red moustache in every picture?!
Jacobb has the perfect picture pose.
This picture of the family is pretty cute.
This is Lisa's fun party. The kids were decorating cupcakes.
Oh my gosh. they are so adorable. (Even from behind!)

Ty thinks this is pretty cool.
the next 3 pictures are so funny. Evie gets put in

the wheelbarrow and its not so bad.... until she looks around......

Once she realizes she is surrounded by all the boys,
she doesn't like it so............. she cries. My favorite
thing is Ty looking around like is she crying because I didnt
do anything.

and I continue to snap pictures as Evie is screaming her brains out.

We did it!

I invite you to view the first decoration we have hung on the walls since we moved in in February, which was approximately 8 months ago. Oh and the picture....it was taken in May.




Sorry the picture quality is so poor. But this is very exciting for me. Hopefully this starts a new trend!
