Jennie Photos

These are a long time over due, and its mainly cause I'm lazy, and I didn't want to have to 're-download' them onto a different computer. Here are some way cute pics of my girls when my friend Jennie took pics of them at her studio at her house. Kelli was a stinker, and I needed more hands to put Josie on the ground, and RUN back and try to make her smile; meanwhile, she is already on her way to crawl and see me. It was a lot of fun, and I LOVE the pics. Thanks so much Jennie! I want to come down for a "Josie personal shoot" for her first bday! Which are your favorite?


J loved being on this bench. She thought she was SO BIG on that thing, and would rock back and forth on it.
K- she looks all sweet and precious, but she's a stinker... all she wanted to do was play with Chase, not smile for the camera!
THESE ARE MY FAVORITE OF K and J. I just want to enlarge them and mount them on a wall in my house and sit in front of them. I love them! These girls are awesome, and they are so fun.
Thanks again Jennie!

I also have her website added on my "just for fun" section. Check out the cute pics of my kids.. and others. And if you saw how WILD they were... You'd be surprized that there were any with smiling faces.. ;)

Let me OUT!

So, because my house is a split level type, I have all sorts of barriers throughout.. and one of them is this little wooden gate. Poor Josie, she can cruize up the stairs faster than you can blink, but she goes head first down them.... she thinks its funny though. (usually its only 2 or 3 stairs) She'll sit and hold onto this gate while I'm cooking dinner.

I think she is trying to chew her way through... so cute though.

Just Dance!

Kelli had her 2nd Dance recital and LOVED it just as much as before. Her first one was when she was 2 1/2 and she just turned 3 when she had this. She wanted to take a picture up on the big stage and did some nice poses. This was my favorite one.

She had 3 dances all and all.. she had a ballet dance, a tap dance, and was in the finale. In her ballet dance they had to pop a balloon at the end with a toothpick that was hidden in their shoes. She loved that part, and was excited to hear the people laugh when the balloons popped.

These are some of her mad dance moves.

This was her in the finale. Some of her dance buddies left before the finale.. Which I dont blame them it was long and my kids were tired.. but she loved it. All the kids were so excited backstage and she just wanted to get out there for every dance and shake it.. instead she tried to follow along on all the dances in the isle. Which was entertaining as well.

Good Job Kelli! You did so great. Shake it girly..

Memorial Day In Benjamin

On Memorial Day the whole family went down to the family reunion in Benjamin. Where's Benjamin you ask??? Past Spanish Fork.. and just when you think you've gone too far..... go a little further, and Bam! You're there. It was a lot of fun. Danny brought a Volleyball net and all the guys played that while a game of football was going on. And of coarse we ate and socialized. I have more pics.. but didn't have the time to download them. But here is a cute picture of Kelli and Josie in the swing.. and Josie LOVING it!!

I took video of Josie just laughing.. but one day I'll fig out how to download that.

April/May/June Birthdays

Well, we decided to do ONE big party for the majority of the 'grandkids' birthdays.. There are so many, thats its easier to do it all in one sitting. It was, Amanda's, Lyza's, Seths, Kelli's, Brooklyns, Thomas, and Nates birthdays. Lyza's was at the end of April, and Nates is June 1st, and the rest in May, but we just put them all together. It was a lot of fun, it was at Michelle and Serges, and the kids loved playing on the swingset, and trampoline, and running around the backyard. We had yummy food and great entertainment (provided by the children) and awesome weather.
(above: some of the Birthday kids posing on the tramp.... but the real supporter was Sami who was a little bit jealous it wasn't her birthday but man, she can sure strike a pose!)

(below: all the birthdays sitting on the blanket waiting for grandma to make her rounds of delivering the presents. And for the record.... Amanda was the first one on the blanket. )

Grandma and Grandpa Anderson, and Uncle Paul watching the kids run around and open presents.

Kelli on the tramp. All she wanted for her birthday was a trampoline and swing set, and didn't get either... what a let down. But atleast Shell has both!!

Josie doing my favorite crawl of all..... on her feet and hands.. she hates the grass, but is starting to warm up to it. She just crawled around on the grass and would try to eat some every once inawhile.

Happy Birhtday Kids!
