GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS

GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS

Bryn is a fantastic ball player. She surprised us with how aggressive she is.
Lauren and Brynlee also take cheer. They both did great in their competitions.

I HATE MY BATH

Because she is loved soo much and constantly being held she gets a little mangy looking. This in return requires a weekly bath.
I hate my bow. But I look and smell oh so sweet.

CHRISTMAS PUPPY

OK, after years of the kids begging for a dog we finally gave in. Roxy came to our family Christmas Eve by the Christmas Elf as Olivia says.
Parker filled with Excitement. Although he said he knew because he over heard a phone conversation about her.
Kisses, kisses and more kisses. The kids love for her to kiss their faces. We've told them that her tongue has just been licking her bumb before their mouths. They just laugh.

Trimming the Tree



The girls each had their own tree. It was fun to see the designers in them.
What beautiful girls in their Christmas dresses.
We have a family tradition of opening a gift on Christmas Eve and it always happens to be new jammies.

LAUREN'S BAPTISM

Lauren had a real sweet baptism. She looked so pure. Brynlee played a beautiful musical number. What a special day. It filled me with joy!

HALLOWEEN 2006

A rock star, a good witch and a squirrel, oh my!
And what are you?? Parker and his friend Brandon didn't quite know what to be.

LITTLE ATHLETES

The girls are all great soccer players. Their teams were all undefeated. Well OK not all, Olivia's team was a little young and small and didn't quite seem to win a single game. But they did have fun playing. Dave was the coach and the competive nature in him was eaten alive.
Parker had a fun season with flag football. He had an awsome team that was also undefeated.

Parker SBO

Parker ran for school secretary and won. They did speeches in front of the school, he definately got the most screams and cheers. What a great kid!

Camping in San Clemente state beach July 2006

Kenny was giving Bobby a yoga lesson. They had quite the audience on the beach in San Clemente.
Diana and Bentley Willardson, Brynlee and Natalie Weeks saving seats for our nightly dinner around the campfire. Great topics, good laughs and alot of relaxation. Olivia became quite the super model.

On the Newport pier with a shark someone caught.

Silver Lake


This past summer we spent alot of time in the mountains hiking and picnicing. Doesn't Bobby look hot!! He's always game for fun.

Beautiful Girls





These pictures were taken the same day. It was quite a chore trying to get everyone and the babies all smiling. Luke, Bentley and Alexandra were fussy toads. Grandma R. always just goes with the flow. We love her so much. These pics of Bryn and Lauren were just darling, I had to post them. Aren't these two grandmas just georgous!

We love Grandma


Grandma Rawsthorne was here in June and had the priviledge of attending Olivia's dance recital. Olivia was a beautiful squirrel in Sleeping Beauty. You can see she has quite the attitude. Grandma looks so great!

Family Picture

Our darling family in June 2006

Disneyland 2006

I drove to California with the kids and without Dave over spring break. We had a great time. The weather was a little cold and it rained most of the week. We had 4 day passes to Disneyland and only used 2 days because of the weather.
