Payton and Ellie's Graduation

We did a preschool co-op/Joy school this year with three friends and it was lots of fun.  So much fun that they graduated...in March.  We had a little graduation ceremony where they received a certificate and a class picture, followed by lunch and an easter egg hunt!  They do miss school and often ask when their next "school day" is?  

The answer is: Next year, when I get to pay big bucks to drop them off somewhere three days a week!  

Snow!

Auntie Patrice gave the kids boots this year, so we've tried to get at least some use out of them. It never snowed much the times we were in Utah, so we headed up to Mt. Charleston to use the snow cone supplies that Arnold gave the kids and also took a trip to Brian Head with the Salos. It was all so much fun!

The Holidays

We celebrated the holidays: Halloween is always fun in Vegas...

Thanksgiving dinner at our house with family and friends...

Making gingerbread houses with Lisa and Christmas morning at our house (complete with new underwear in the stockings) and then taking off to Utah later that day for the rest of Christmas and New Years!

Payton and Ellie's Birthday

Ha! I bet no one even checks this anymore, it's been so long since I updated. I thought I'd just highlight a few things that have happened in the last six months!

Payton and Ellie turned four on November 25, 2011! They had a Harry Potter party and I took them to pick out their own balloons...which is why Payton chose "Get Well Soon".

New Pictures

Here's a couple of our new family pictures!
