Dylan is 7

My handsome boy turned 7 on the 23rd.  He is such a blessing in our lives and I love him so much.  He has more energy than any one person should have and loves to talk.  He comes home from school and talks non-stop for at least 30 minutes about everything he learned and all the happenings of the day.  I look forward to it!! 

Dylan continues to love Star Wars and Legos.  Between his birthday and Christmas this year he got 10 new sets of Legos and has been in heaven ever since.  He is an amazing big brother and loves to spend time with Avery.

He recently made a collage poster of what he wants to be when he grows up and why.  He had to give a presentation in his class on it and Avery and I got to go.  It was cute as he talked about wanting to be a BMW Technician like his daddy so he could go see him everyday and work with him! 

Happy 7th birthday, Dylan!!

This girl just makes me giggle!

First, she decided to watch TV as a mummy one night.

Second, she wanted to be a Christmas Angel, and this was her pose.

Finally, her daddy made her a snow chair, and she decided to sit down, relax, and have some snow!

Catching Up

I recently improved my technological skills and figured out how to get the pictures from my phone to my computer.  So, I am going to share a few from this past year!

Nathan’s brothers, Aaron & Andre’, and their families came to visit for the 4th of July.  We had lots of fun with them…even got to go to Home Depot for the Kids Craft – they made Penske trucks!

We took the kids on their first campout, with the ward.  They loved it and have been asking when we get to go again ever since!

Avery has started dance.  She recently was a Sugar Plum Fairy in a production of the Nutcracker!  She loves dance and is looking forward to continuing to do more.

These are just a couple of pictures of the best young women, ever!  They took 3rd in region this year for volleyball!!!  Being YW President has been an amazing calling and has blessed our family immensely.  Nathan and the kids have willingly sacrificed a lot so I can devote the time needed to serve these beautiful girls!
