Surprise tea party!

Today was the funnest day ever for my girls. They went to a fancy tea party in honor of sister Jost. Sister Jost has made all these girls american girl doll clothes (tons of them). So we had a tea party for her to show her all the cute outfits she has made for them. Everyone dressed up so fancy and frilly!

She was given a doll of her own to have and dress up. She was so excited! She is the nicest lady ever.

Here, all the girls wait for sister Jost to arrive since it was a surprise! We had it at the Marriott Hotel in one of the banquet rooms. There was so much food and the girls made tutus for their dolls along with bracelets for them too.

Here are the sassy divas now, ready for the tea party! Honestly, could they get any cuter????

Daddy Day at Preschool

Today Aubs had daddy day at her preschool. She made this portrait of her dear sweet dad. It is so cute. She was so proud to have her dad there with her and show him her territory.

Christmas Sunday!

Here they are. It was our mad rush to get out the door in time, but we made it. They looked so cute. Its so hard to get them all smiling at the same time. Merry Christmas!!

Where did Aubs go?

Dave just went in to check on Aubrey and she was not in her room....instant panic. She never leaves her room when she goes to bed. So we went down to the girls room and low and behold- Aubrey snuggled up to Chandler. Yes, she has curlers (I'm a nerd) but I like the look of the different curl especially for Christmas sunday! Anyway, there she was all sound asleep.

Like father like son, true blue cougar!

Dave and his boy gearing up for the BYU game tonight. The poor kid has no choice!

Cute little boys!

Little man turns 1 today!!

I cant believe that Hayden turned one today. It makes me so sad that he is growing up so fast. (and no its not time for another!!) We had a fun day. Like he even knew it was his birthday but we still had the whole shebang!! Of course he will bleed blue with his cougar attire!! Thanks G&G Schramm!

He didnt quite know what to think of his cake. He kept throwing it on the floor, until I put some in his mouth. Then he was chowin down.

Oh ya baby!!! Look at these set of wheels. Dave wondered if it had a hemi??? It just about did. This was actually my second attempt at this bad boy. The first one looked way to much like a el camino.... ug! The child loves wheels and anything round so I had to do a truck. Yes, its a truck!! Its weird not doing a girly cake, its kinda fun doing one for a boy! Anyway, here is the truck cake.

The girls helping Hayden open his presents. Every picture I took today I missed the smile on his face by seconds. Oh well at least the others are smiling. He loves his firetruck.

He was so possessive of this push toy. It made all sorts of noises and if anyone got on it he would start yelling at them. It was so funny. He has started making mean faces. Its not surprising if you know the other girls and their faces they used to make at this age. We had a fun day with him and playing with his new toys. He is so much fun. He is getting really fast at walking and now he cruises around like he owns the place. Love ya little man!!

Yea for Snow!!!

I know, its a shocker that I am updating our blog. I admit, it has been NUTSO!! I dont know how everyone stays so up on them. Uggg... I need to do better. We got our first real bit of snow last week and the girls just loved going out to play in it. After living in Alabama for so long where we got no snow this is AWESOME for them. (even though it wasnt much.)

Thanks Sarah for making her hat!

Nothing like snow angels... on the driveway!
