Christmas

So I didn't get very many pictures of Christmas this year. Instead we have some fun video!

We were able to spend our morning with Grandma and Grandpa Hartman and our friend Bomi from Korea! We had a wonderful morning full of presents, breakfast and memories! 

After Santa, before kiddos. A magical silence!

Josh building Lord of the Rings Lego set

Maurie among her goodies!

Buddy showing off Lightning and Mater

Best present -  mini bunny pillow pet

Buddy and Maurie got some cute pretend food. They are having fun making pizza and cookies!

Best Day!

We were excited to pick up Bomi at the airport today!  She is from Korea and will stay with us for a few days until she moves into her apartment.  We spent the afternoon at Temple Square showing her the sites!

Maurie was lost in a dream as she watched the "princesses" getting their wedding pictures taken.

The lights were beautiful!

Bomi is amazing and we already love her to bits!

Gingerbread Houses

Grandma made beautiful princess dresses for the girls!

Picture time!

My old neighbor took these pictures for us! These are just a few snapshots of my awesome kids!!

Trouble and Snow!

To think I was one foot away (with my back turned) from this little stink as I was rolling out breadsticks!  I must be clueless!!

Smug

It's the smile that keeps me out of trouble!

Time of his life!

Watch Out!

Who's who?

Josh wants to send this picture into Lego Magazine with his creation!

I have been trying to get this "cheese" on camera for a while now!

We Love Halloween!!

Maurie's preschool program filled with songs and poems!

Only Star Wars nerds would know who this guy is!  Josh reminded me about every other day this month that I needed to get this costume done it time for Halloween! Phew, mission complete!

Ready to go!!  Yoda, monkey, zombie, and Kit Fisto!

Trick-or-Treating with our neighbor friends!

Tis the Season! Field Trip

 Our trip to the pumpkin patch!  It was an amazingly beautiful day considering the weather around the rest of the country!

Buddy was fascinated with the giant pig!

Playing in the corn pit!

Sweet Chelsea!

On the Dog House!

Buddy finally found a place where the dog can't share ice cream cones!

First Day of School!!

 Back to School!

We are all smiles for the camera even though the first day of school was frowned upon! Summer was too much fun and free time will be truly be missed!

 

Sam is now in 4th grade!

 Josh is starting 2nd grade!

Maurie with her new preschool teacher!

Sam's teacher must have made this frame and she sent us pictures!

HOORAY!

Time with Grace!

It was fun to have Rachel, Scoot and Grace stay with us for a little bit at the end of summer!

Sam spent every spare moment with Grace! He thinks that she is the coolest baby and wants to have at least 10 like her when he is a dad!

She is a good sport and as cute as ever!

Random!

One of my favorite things- to get my hair done!

The pure beauty!!

Buddy is pure entertainment and also pure trouble!
