Anna!!!!

 

Anna...

She is always doing this...we just had to take a picture of it:-)

Isn't she just adorable? She was all smiles and so cute.

Girls Weekend

Emily painted Lael's toes while Melissa Straightened her hair and my mom did her nails. It looks scary, but...

It turned out looking great!

Here was my sad attempt to get a picture of all of us. I had my 50 mm lens on...this is all we could get...Where is VV? Oh, there is her eye in the back:-)

Gotta love Madison and Abby's faces...

Abby and Aunt Lilley!

This is who Abby was looking at during the family picture above...Thanks Aunt Lilley for teaching her that:-)

Silly Family:-)

Aunt Lilley!!!!

Aunt Emmy!!!!

We made a Thomas the Train snow sculpture for Madison which she just loved.

Oh...Family!

Building the Snowman...backwards:-)

This is our Gingerbread City and train! We had fun making them. I bet you can't guess which one is Madison's:-)

Brian spent two plus hours with Madison outside one day and they made a fort. Who knew it would have come in so handy. We were suppose to be building a snowman, but this is what happened instead. Brian of course ran for cover...who wouldn't?

Needless to say he lost:-)

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Evans Nativity

Don't they all look so great!

Madison was Mary and was very good at it. She let her cousin (Joseph) put his hand on her shoulder through the entire play. It was so adorable. She just loved baby Jesus!

Shepherds and Sheep

Angels

Madison and her cousin...they are the best of friends!

Precious Hannah!

I love taking pictures of my niece. Isn't she so adorable? Thanks Michelle for letting me capture her cute smile and many faces!

"Where's my Christmas Hat?"

Madison wanted me to take her picture while she wore her 'Christmas hat'. All day we hear, "where is my Christmas hat?" She loves it! Grandpa pretended to be Santa last night and called Madison on the cell phone. She was confused, but loved it!

Wedding

Sisters!!!! I love being home with them!

Isn't she beautiful? I got to shoot her wedding as the candid photographer and loved it!

Heart Breaker!

Cute Nephew!!!! I got to do the Bake's family pictures and this is just one of my favorites. I won't post more for Emily's sake, but isn't he just adorable! It was so fun to take his picture. He is a little man of many facial expressions! Thanks Em.

Under Where?

No...under wear!!!!! Madison potty trained herself and I am better because of it. Bye bye diapers during the day and hello care bear underpants. She is so proud of them and will sport them for anyone and anything including the video camera (dancing and the whole nine yards). I'm sure one day this will be embarassing:-) We are loving time with family. It's been filled with shopping, decorating, dentist appointments, cooking, eating, playing, and relaxing. We even got to have a small get away to Park City for a night for our four year anniversary. Yes, I know. Four years isn't long to some, but it's gotten us two beautiful children, a move to NH, three 1/2 years of medical school under our belts, a few fender benders, 6 moves, and we are all the better for it. I love being married to my best friend and love knowing it's FOREVER!!!! Thanks Brian for making all four years fun filled with lots of fun adventures.

Festival of Trees!!!!

Madison with one of her favorite cousins...they are two peas in a pod!!!

Madison said, "I don't want to sit on Santa's lap." She was finally convinced when all her cousins went up to get a group picture and she got a candy cane after too. She was too shocked to answer when Santa asked her what she wanted for Christmas. I was hoping she would ask him for her 'special Book of Mormon.'



Yahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
