Bryce Canyon Slide Show

We went to Bryce Canyon last weekend for a family reunion with my Mom's Family. Here are some pictures we took of the view up there.

They Grow Up So Fast

Emilee has a dance recital this Saturday. The studio arranged for a professional photographer to come into the studio to take pictures of the girls in their costumes with their class this past Saturday. We were told how to do their hair and make-up. When Emilee saw herself in the mirror when she was all put together, she decided that she was "beautiful". Here is Emilee, ready to dance...

Easter Pics....Finally

Robert and I flew in from Hawaii early Easter morning. Luckily for us the Harwood's had taken care of all the Easter preparations so the Easter Bunny could do it's thing. The kids had a lot of fun and here are a few of the cute pictures from that day.

Hawaii

Robert and I took a trip to Hawaii without the kids. We have been to both Oahu and Maui. It is so beautiful here. We have spent time on both Waikiki and Ka'anapali beaches. We survived the Road to Hana in Maui and hiked the Manoa Trail in Oahu to see some amazing waterfalls. We visited the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor and the Punchbowl. We went snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, blown away by Pali lookout, checked out the Dole Plantation, spent a day at the Polynesian Center, and walked the grounds of the Laie Temple. Today we went on a catamaran to go whale watching. The video attached it a sampling of what we saw on the cruise.

Yipee The Tooth is Out

Emilee lost her very first baby tooth. A little over a week ago, after Emilee had been tucked into bed, she came running out of her room yelling "Mommy" "Daddy". The first thing that popped into my head was she saw a scorpion or some other hideous bug in her room. That was not the case, her tooth was loose. Very loose. Well she would not let anyone touch anything anywhere near her mouth. It took some coaxing to get her to play with her tooth. Then last Friday, she let me check out her mouth. She let me wiggle the tooth a little and then decided that she didn't like me touching her tooth. Well as she was moving to get off my lap my finger popped that little tooth right out of her mouth and it landed on the floor. Yipee the tooth is out. The tooth fairy came that night and all is well in the world of Emilee once more.

Emilee's Birthday pictures

Here are Emilee's pictures we had taken for her sixth birthday. She was channeling her inner princess that day at the photo studio.

The picture fairy did it...

As I downloaded pictures from the camera recently, I noticed some shots that I did not take...and I am quite certain that Robert did not take these pictures either. It seems we have a little picture taking fairy at our house.
