Ally's 4th Birthday party...

I asked Ally what she wanted to do for her birthday

and she said "Play games" which means that she wanted

her party at Peter Piper Pizza again!

Singing "Happy Birthday"

Make a wish...

She has been asking for tool forever,

now she has some.

All we've heard for months now is she wants a "puter".

She would say she wanted one for Christmas and her birthday.

She was so happy when she opened it.

Then she told me "Now I'm going to type".

Happy 4th Birthday!

Christmas Morning...

We had a very nice Christmas.

It started earlier than I would have liked

but maybe someday we'll get to sleep in.

Santa brought Ally a bike.

Santa brought Bryce & Ashley Band Hero.

Santa brought Aubrey a tricycle.

A few other gifts the kids got from mom & dad....

Tinker Bell movie

NEMO puzzle

Dance Element hoodie

New Moon shirt

Ice Age movie

Suns sweat shirt

Elefun game

It was a very nice day with family.

Hope your Christmas was merry & bright.

Christmas Dance...

These pictures are from Ally's in class Christmas performance.

Doing "shuffles"

They danced to "I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas"

Striking a pose with a lot of attitude!

I can't wait to see these little ones dance at the recital in May.

They are going to be so cute!

Happy Dancing ☺

Happy Thanksgiving...

Ashley's 12th Birthday Party...

Here are some pictures from Ashley's party.
I still can't believe she's almost a teenager.
Where does the time go?

"Make a wish!"


She got lots of cards with cash!
She was so happy because she is saving to buy another iPod.
She hasn't been able to find hers since Bryce's birthday party.


A Barnes & Noble gift card for a girl that loves to read is always great,
and the Taylor Swift Platinum Edition CD


New Moon Soundtrack with polish, and a New Moon calendar.
Like I said before she LOVES all things Twilight/New Moon.


Friends from school & dance
Top: Naiomi, Samantha
