Joë's Dance Recital

This was put on by Best Dance Co. here in Pocatello, and director, Stacey Landon. It was so much fun! The girl's costumes were beautiful and the kids had a lot of fun doing it!

Here are the girls before the show.

Here is Evie Bidwell posing with Joë.

Here are most of the girls in Joë's class.

Here is Joë on center stage.

And here she is at the finalè.

This was a fun experience. Joë is going to take a break for the spring and play soccer and then t-ball, and possible do dance again in the fall next year! She really is a natural at anything she tries to do!!

Ephraim's 2nd Birthday!!

I can't believe my baby is two already. He has been such a joy. He is a constantly happy boy who loves to read books and play cars all day long. He loves to follow his siblings around wherever they go and will do anything they ask him to do. He is very helpful picking up garbage and toys and he loves to sit on your lap to eat dinner.

I love you Ephraim. You are a joy and sunshine in our lives. 

Christmas is the Season...!!

Can you guess where we are? Costco Shop night, with SANTA!!

Here is Joë all dressed up in her dance costume. The recital is tomorrow, so look for more pics. We were making sure everything fit just right and I wanted some still pics so I would actually get them!

   

 

 Here is Ben at his Christmas Program. They sang Feliz Navidad, O Mei Tei To Gozaimasu, and Up On the Rooftop!

I just love this time of year! We have the next week planned out with fun things to do each day, like make sugar cookies and a gingerbread house. Go deliver Santa cookies! Possibly go sledding, definitely go hiking, and play in the snow and then have hot cocoa!!! Merry Christmas!

A typical day at our house...

At lunch, we have to wear our food for it always tastes better when it is on our face!! Yummy PB&J sandwiches!!

   

Then we get all dressed up to play in the snow!! YEAH! We love the snow!

 

After some hot cocoa, we take a nice little nap to wind down! Go COOKS!
