So Gratefull......

I have some many things to be greatfull for this Thanksgiving! It was a hard holiday without Dad, but I am so thankful for the family that I was surround with. I am so grateful for my awsome husband who is such a rock for me. He loves me even though I am crazy!

This year for Thanksgiving my Mom rented a cabin in Eden, it was amazing! All of us kids were there, and what a blast we had! All 11 grandkids make for a LOUD time. They all get along, and are old enough to go off by themselves so that is nice!

                                                           These 2 are quite the pair!
On Saturday it was off to the football game with the Sorensens to support our AGGIES! We are going Bowling and I am so excited to celebrate another anniversary watching the Aggies! I hope you all had a good as holiday as we did :)

Pumpkins!

Mom came up for a few days and while she was here we painted pumpkins. This was the first time we painted instead of carved and I do think from now on we will be painting. It was so much easier and not a mess!!

 

This is how excited TJ was to be painting!! I love Kaidence face in this she looking at TJ like he is crazy!

 

Kaidence thought this was painting was great because we let her do it all by herself! Scary right good thing paint washes off!!

                      
                                               Kennedy and TJ painted this adorable face.

Mom and Kendall made a Fancy Nancy pumpkin. We all had a blast. I know you are wondering if I am really part of the family because there are no pictures of me! Well I am always behing the camera!

 

Happy Haunting!!

Happy Halloween! I hope that every one had a spooktactular day! We had a blast the girls loved every minute of it. We went to a Haunted House at the High School. I thought this is going to be to much for the little ones. and sure enough Kendall had to be carried the whole way Kaidence wanted out and Kennedy was not scared at ALL! She thought is was kinda silly. Then we went trick or treating and the girls made a haul.

 

Kendall was Spider Girl.

 

                                                          Kennedy was a butterfly fairy.

                                                    
                                                       And little Miss was Miney Mouse.
The girls had a great time and I thought that they looked adorable in their coustumes. I love Haloween and I am sad to see it go bye another year but yeah for more holidays to come!

                                             Happy Hauntings for the Sorensen Family!!!

 

Family Pictures

I was finally able to talk TJ into getting family pictures taken again!! So my mom cam up and took the pictures for us down by the river. They turned out great! Thanks mom for taking them and thanks Beka for editing them.

                                        Don't you love how Kendall looks like she is in pain?

                               This one is by far my favorite! I thought it turned out really nice.

                                                          Me and my hot hubby!!

There are a ton more but I will not bore you . These are just some of my favorite!!

Puppy love...

We got a dog! I know I am crazy and just asking for it but he is a cute little bugger. We named him Bo after Robert Turban and Bobby Wagner, go AGGIES! TJ is in heaven though, finally another male in the house :)

On Monday we celebrated Terrell's 60th. What a great man to have in our lives. We are so blessed to call him dad and papa. For his birthday we went fishing. Eric was the only one that got any fish worth keeping. That is ok though the kids got really dirty and had a good time.

Kaidence and Blake were the most dirty by far. They had a great time throwing rocks in the river! Those two are the best of friends.

We sure had lots of fun. Happy Birthday Papa, we love you!!

Skating away!

My mom and I went to the ice skating show in Sun Valley, what a blast. The ice skaters were amazing!! We went shopping, ate yummy food and just hung out with out any kids for the whole day, thanks TJ your amazing. It was great just to spend the day with my mom!

                                                             Don't we look stunning!!

The best mom in the world. This picture is awfull, I know. It was at least 200 degrees outside and we walked and walked all day so hence the no makeup, flat hair look! Besides the point we had a blast, thanks mom your the best!

Summer Fun

 What a crazy busy summer we have had. Sun Valley then Utah then Boise and on our way to American Falls!!! Makes me tired just thinking about it. Sun Valley was a blast like always. We swam and shopped our little hearts out. Thanks Terrell and Marie for a great time.

Although I am not pictured I really was there!!

Then off to Utah we went. I forgot the camera so just imagine the cute pictures of all the grandkids celebrating Wacko's birthday! Then our Boise trip was next (Mind you this was all in two weeks). We had a blast in Boise. We went to the aquarium. The girls got to touch sting rays and sharks they loved it.

The next day we went to the zoo. The girls loved the butterfly exhibit the most. They got to stand in a room and butterflys flew all around them. They were able to touch them and some even landed on them.

                                                You got to love Kennedy's face in this picture.

                                After the Zoo we rescued TJ from class and went paddle boating.

                       What a good time we had. Now maybe we can find those lazy days of summer!!

Go Blondie its your birthday.....

Yeah Kenndy's Five!!!

Grandma Sorensen sent her this awsome birthday banner. We celebrated Kennedy's birthday all week long. We started with NeeNee and Papa and Aunt Huggie with lunch in the park. It was a great day and the girls had a blast playing on the toys.

Then it was off to Grandmas for another birthday bash. We went bowling and had birthday cake with Unlce Gabriel and Aunt Carlie.

Kennedy bowled a great game!! She is finally big enough to do it by herslef :)

                                                       Grandma and the birthday girl!

                                                            She had a princess cake!

We love our Kenndy so much! Some of her favorite things to do our puzzles, play with Kendall, color and eat peperoni pizza!! We our so blessed to have this little sweetheart in our home!

Memories.....

I know life has been turned upside down in the last month and I find myself wondering what will happen next, but I can always count on one thing to be constent, my girls smiling faces!!My family brings me such joy (I know I sound like Grandma) but it is ture they have been my sunlight in the gray days I have faced. I know there is not a picture of TJ and Kaidence but they can always make me laugh when I need it the most.  Lately pictures have ment to much more to me then before.  I will cherish these little smiling faces in these pictures.

I only have pictures left to remind me of all the good times so I cherish everyone I come across. I know these are not the best quality but the memories they bring back are crystal clear.

                                                        

                                                   My baptism, what a great day that was.

                 
                                      My blessing day, don't remember it what that is some great hair!!

                            Wacko with Kendall, naptime with all the grandbabies was my dad's favorite.

                 The last family vacation we took. Wacko shot with all the kids that wanted a turn.

                                                        
                                                                   On my wedding day.

What a great man. I miss every him  minute of my life. I still don't understand why, but I can not wait untill I see him again. Untill then I will hold on to the pictures and memories.

Turkey day...

A little out order right?, but I just found these pictures. We had great Thanksgiving at the Bones. The kids all play so well toghether and the black Friday shopping was awsome. I made these turkey shirts for the girls!!

                                   I thought they looked stinkin' cute. Happy Goble, Goble day!!!

Yeah, Christmas, Christmas, Christmas....

What a great time of year!! We had  a great christmas and enjoyed the long break with Dad. The only thing we missed was snowmobiling,( we are STILL waiting on that!!) Santa made a stop at our house and the girls loved everything.

                                       Kendall biggest suprise was her happy napper, she loves it!!

                          Kennedy loves her hulu hoop, that was her favorite present this year!

                                    Kaidence's favorite present was her Courious George movie.

                                          TJ got a dress shirt, socks and some K-swiss shoes. There is not a picture of me but I got the biggest suprise of all , a NOOK!!! I was so shocked and suprised, I have the best husband in the world!!  We had a really good day here are some random picture.

For New Years we could not make it to the Cabin due to the lack os snow, so off to the Sorensen's we went. We had a great time, eating, stying up way to late, chatting with the girls a great round of Rook and enjoying one another. Here a great picture of TJ and Eric playing games!!!

It must have been a really hard question!! Well we had a great Christmas break and we hope everyone's holidays were as merry as ours!!
