Time in Texas

So I have been needing to post these pictures for about a month now and my dang internet never seems to work, I almost decided to just stop blogging because it was stressing me out! But I decided to keep trying and today the internet works great!! So here are a bunch of pictures from my time in Texas this last December and January. I will briefly explain each one. Above is the children putting out cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve!!! All in their new jammies! Also these pictures are backward as far as order goes, but I don't care.
Sitting with Mema and Poppy reading "T'was the Night Before Christmas"
Kyla, Sierra, Aria, Haley, Fox, Melia and Weston all sitting under the tree at my sisters house on Christmas Eve after they all changed into their new jammies!!! I miss you my sweet nieces!!
Christmas Eve!
My sister Thora and I, decorating cookies!!! YUMMY!!
All the kids decorating cookies, they were so good, we gave some to Santa and ate the rest, LOL!!
Weston attempting a snow angel, I don't think the snow was quite deep enough!
Playing in the snow!
This is what we woke up to Chri stmas Eve morning!!! We were so excited to see snow in Texas!!
It was so nice to play outside in the beautiful winter weather in Abilene! This was before it snowed, and it was perfect!
Sean and Weston playing frisbee, Weston was quite good!
Christmas before Sunday, here we are all dressed up. The kids are all wearing their cute matching outfits that my friends Julia and Brianna made!!! They turned out so cute!
I just love this picture, Fox is wearing his cousins glasses! He has always loved weraing glasses of anyones, but these ones look like they could really be his!
Fox and Weston with their cute cousins Kyla and Aria!!!

Yeah, I did it!! I actually posted these pictures! And it was no easy task! I had Fox screaming at me the whole time, so I better get to him!!!

Haley's Baptism

On November 28th our sweet Haley was baptized! It was such a beautiful, perfect day! Haley decided that she wanted to be baptized in the ocean, so we went to Escambron Beach and found a perfect little spot where the waves were calm and it was nice and secluded. We had so many friends come to support us, so even though we couldn't have our family here we weren't alone! I'm so grateful for all of my friends here, they really are like my family away from home!! I don't know what I would do with out their friendship and support! The only thing that could have gone better that day was to have the baptismal clothes! Unfortunately we weren't able to get them so our friends had a white shirt and pants for Sean to wear and a little white dress for Haley to wear, thank you so much Kevin and Jackie!
Haley was confirmed the next day in her beautiful baptism dress that her Grandma sent from Utah, it was so spiritual and emotional, I'm so proud of my Haley!
It was a beautiful day here in Puerto Rico, and after we had Haley's baptism we went down to the water and enjoyed a very nice day at the beach with some of our friends!

I mixed up the order here, but here below is Haley and Sean walking in to the ocean for her baptism and the above picture is them walking out after, it was so cool!

Funny Fox!

So I thought since it had been so long since I had posted new pictures that I would put a bunch of my cute little Fox!!! He is growing and developing more everyday! I can't believe he's almost 16 months old!!!
Here he is swimming in our backyard, we weren't planning on him going to swiming, so he has his regular diaper on and a t-shirt but when he woke up from his nap and saw that his big brother and sister were swimming, he couldn't help but join in!! this is how he gets into the pool, it is so cute!! And that's not poop on his diaper, just mud from when he sat down, seriously!!
Look how big his diaper got! He didn't even mind!
What a cute, sturdy little man!
A while ago the kids had a fire safety day at school and brought home firefighter hats, so Fox decided to try one on!! He is so photogenic!!

Popcorn anyone? This is the bowl we usually use for popcorn on Sunday nights, but Fox found it and decided it looked like a good chair! And he fit perfectly inside!
He loves to try and sit in or on everything, he always kicks Tink out of her dog bed and takes a seat for awhile!! I love my little Fox, and he is crying for me right now so I better get off the computer!!!

Weston's Owie

Most of you know the story by now but I had to put these pictures up for my friends and family who haven't seen Weston already! Unfortunately Weston cut his head open about a week and a half ago. He was being babysat by my friend and so I sent him home on the bus to her neighborhood after school. Usually this works out fine but this time the bus driver let Weston get off at the wrong bus stop and then left before making sure Weston had found my friend!!! Needless to say this made me very angry!! But Weston wasn't worried, he saw a park he has played at before and decided to go play, but as he was playing he ran into a pole and split his head open, someone who was working near by saw Weston bleeding and crying and took care of him and then my friend got there, since he wasn't at the bus stop that she was waiting at, and he was okay! But later after we picked him up I had to take him to the emergency room, so he could get stitches. And it was quite a nightmare! We were there for 6 hours and the doctor barely spoke English, then at 1 o'clock in the morning when we were finally done, I tried to leave and all the exits were blocked! I finally found the ONE way out and realized when I got to the ticket booth that I didn't have any cash, and here you have to pay for parking when you go to the hospital, so I had to back out of the line and go to an ATM on the other side of the hospital, SERIOUSLY! It really sucked! Then we finally got home and went to bed!!!!! Weston's cut is healing quite well, I took his stitches out on my own because I was NOT about to go back to the emergency room, and I just hope that we never have to do that again!
Here's Weston faking a sad face for his cut! He's so funny, as long as you didn't touch his cut he was happy as a clam!

Halloween, Finally!!!

So like a month ago it was Halloween, and I can finally put my pictures up!! Haley was a Vampire, Weston was Superman and Fox was a dragon!!! First we had a ward party and trunk-or-treat, then the next night we went to my friend Jojo's neighborhood and went trick-or-treating!

As you can see I dressed up as an F.B.I. agent, not that the female agents really dress like this!! I don't know what my problem was but I couldn't seem to hold still for a picture that night, LOL!



Weston and his buddy Hudson, AKA Spiderman and Superman!

Family Pictures

So we will see if my internet will work long enough to make a new post! I have been out of the internet world and blogging world for quite sometime now, and I really miss it!!! We have had a lot of trouble finding a good interent service and we still haven't found one. But I think we are getting a better connection so I'm crossing my fingers that I will be able to join the blogging world again!!!

It worked!!!!! It worked!!!!!! I'm so happy, I can finally make new posts on my blog, and look at all my friends' and families' blogs!! Yeah!! Hopefully my internet keeps working, and I can continue to update my blog, check my email, my facebook and whatever else I want to do!!!


So anyway, my talented friend Katie was the one who took these beautiful pictures and I love them! They are just what I wanted for our family pictures here in Puerto Rico!!!! Thank you so much Katie for sharing your time and talent!!!

Finally, A New Post!!!

So I have been so out of it lately, for the past 4 months, because I was out of town for the summer and because I had no internet when I got back!! Well I'm finally back and I have a lot to catch up on, but I wanted to post this picture of Fox that I just took the other day!!!
I have been painting our house and when I paint I need Fox to be entertained and unable to reach the paint! I put him on this little bike and he loved it!!!
He pushes the buttons and pushes himself back word, he hasn't quite figured out how to go forward!! It is so dang cute!!! Hopefully I will be able to do some more posting from my summer experiences, it was so fun being in the states and seeing all of my family!! But I am so happy to be back here with all of my friends!!
