We're going to have a new home!

We are so excited about our new home being built! We've been renting since we moved here and it will be so wonderful to finally have a home to call our home. The girls are super excited as well! They've already picked out their future bedrooms on the floor plan. Construction started last week, so there isn't much to see yet. But, I'll keep posting pics as things get done. The house is supposed to be completed sometime during the middle of July.

More egg decorating pics...

Here are some more pics of our egg decorating. I tried to download another video, but it just wouldn't work. Maybe it will work later.

Coult & Steven's trip to Guatemala

I hope y'all enjoy the pictures of Steven and me in Guatemala. These are pictures of either very old cathedrals, central areas of our hotel in Panajachel, volcanoes, a convent, Lake Atitlan, and some of the markets. If your lucky and your paying attention you might find Ronald McDonald sitting on a bench and Steven in "jail".

Snow in College Station!!!

Cindy the hedgehog

We had an interesting pet for the weekend. One of Natalie's teachers has several classroom pets that the students can take home for the weekend. There are rabbits, sugar gliders, rats, and a hedgehog. Of course, Natalie wanted to keep the hedgehog. She was really cute in an interesting way. We had never seen a hedgehog up close before, so we had no idea how prickly their quills look when they're scared or how tiny their little feet are. The teacher has a ball that you can put the hedgehog in to run around the house. It was so cute watching Cindy run around in that ball! We had to wear gloves to pick her up because of her quills. Lily was actually sad this morning when Natalie and I had to take Cindy back to the school. Here are some pictures of Cindy and the girls.

Making Pizza!

I know it's been forever since I added new pics. It's not my fault...really ;) Actually, if I could ever figure out how to load pictures onto our computer from our camera, then I would update more often. Anyway, here are some pics from one of our Family Home Evenings. We had lots of fun making pizza from dough that we bought at Double Dave's Pizza. It's amazing how much easier it is to twirl dough that it is pre-made! That was $2.00 well spent. We all had a lot of fun and it tasted yummy too! Lily is especially happy when we make pizza because we can leave the cheese off her part! Enjoy the pics!

Santa's Wonderland 2007

Natalie's ice skating birthday party!

Thanks, Alisa for posting your pics of Natalie's party! Maybe next time I will remember to check my camera to make sure the battery is there! I can't believe that Natalie is 11 yrs old now! Time has really flown by. We were so happy that my parents, Aunt Shirley, Aunt Alisa, Tye and Kenadie were able to be here to celebrate her birthday. We had lots of fun that weekend! After Natalie's party, we all went to see the Christmas lights at Santa's Wonderland. They were so beautiful! I will share some of those pics soon.
