Twi-licious


Yet another Midnight Movie with the girlies. We had a great time this year, and went for the whole shebang. We were in the theater by 5pm, and watched Twilight, New Moon, and then the opening of Eclipse. Super fun. Who knew that 9 hours at the movies would go by so fast?

Tammy, Heather, Brooke, Amy and Ginger. The lady next to Ginger brought a cooler, which we thought was a great idea. Until she kept pulling beer out. Drunk as a skunk!
We couldn't forget the Forks sign. One more time ladies!
We had our very own "tent" scene. Bring it on Vamps and Wolves. We can take it!
So the ladies from top left: Tammy, Heather, Brooke, Amy, Ginger, Jenny Liz, and her mom, Pam. She fit right in! (Super cute)

I had such a great time. It is so fun to let go, be silly, cat-call and just enjoy the night. What is next? We need another sequel!

Practice, Practice

My kiddies are such good sports, as I yet again dragged them out to do pictures. I promise, I will conquer this! ( I hope) Here we go.....

A textbook Emmy pout..
But a beautiful smile...
Playful.....
Silly...
Showing off... and yes, her dress really is this bright! So spunky, just like her!

And artistic...

Simple...

Hayley Starr is becoming such a beautiful girl, and growing up way too fast for her mom!
Sweet...
Lovely...

And Silly Hunter. He is so proud of his stinking cute little hamster, 'Widget'. (And I mean stinky!)
Isn't Widget quite the poser?
Hunt wasn't as interested in modeling for me, but I still got this cute shot of him.
Thanks to my sweet kids, for letting me bug them.....again!

And for my post favorite. I swear Emmy is giving me the low-down.
Fun!

Spring has sprung?

It has seemed that winter will never end here, and we were so happy to escape to Dixie for some warmer weather. My sister Leslie was here for Easter break, and the cousins had a great time playing. We played at parks, Leslie took the whole crew skiing while I was at work, (Very brave)
and went on a excursion to Crystal mountain, and to see some petroglyphs.
This is at crystal mountain, where some unusual crystal like rock is found in large veins. It appears almost like an Ice flow. The kids were excited to bring a souvenir or two home with them. It really doesn't show how much light it reflects.
Here are the troublesome trio, Braeden, Aubrey and Emmy. They were quite proud of their finds. Way to go!
Here is Hayley and her little Indiana Jones self.
There really were some cool pictures....
Here is Hunter in another precarious position. Good thing he is holding up well!!



We spent Saturday at Red Cliffs with Brent's family, eating, hiking, and scouting for Easter eggs.
The weather was perfect, and we had a wonderful time together.
The race is on. Everyone got to look for Easter eggs, and treats.
Hayley looks eggstatic (hee hee!) She absolutely loved hunting, wandering and hiking. What a girl!
Emmy is showing Aunt Shauna and Grandpa here findings of the day.


My very favorite picture of the day. Emmy and cousin Malynn, starting off on the walk together. Emmy just loves to follow Malynn, and tries to do whatever she can to keep up!
What a beautiful girl, she is such a sweetie and a wonderful model!
One darling girl, and a beautiful young woman.
What a handsome boy. He was having so much fun with his cousins!
Here Hunter is showing one of his battle bruises on his knee. Poor baby!

As everyone knows, Emmy sure has her breakdown moments, and this was one. She did not want us to tell her to stand on Pride rock. Goofy girl!

I was also able to persuade some of the family to pose for me...so I can practice. Okay, I begged.
Mitch and Gaona, I just love how happy and in love they are.
Brent's beautiful sisters, April and Shauna. Oh, and cute little Maggie.
Mitch and April.

Emmy cheesing it with Grandma and Grandpa.
Grandma and all of the Grand-daughters. Malynn, Hayley and Emmy.

And my favorite Blog picture is this one of Emmy........
....Dang girl.......put that away before you hurt someone. Love the do!

Hope you had a great Easter too!
