Ava Crawling

Park Time

This is Alyssa with her friend Zoe playing in the sand at the park.

Watching the Rain

Ava loves to watch the rain. She sits by the door and hangs out watching
the rain come down. Even when she was a few months old I would put her
in her carseat by the door and she would look out the window
for the longest time.

"Family Bonding"

Alyssa caught on to riding her bike with no training wheels really fast. We were just talking about it one day outside to see if she wanted to try it and she said sure. Within minutes she was riding on her own. Brad and I thought it was a lot harder to teach than it actually was.

Riding Bikes

Go Speed racer!!!

Alyssa is loving riding her bike without training wheels!

Who needs a sandbox when you have a front yard full of rocks.

Ava is my sidewalk buddy. She hangs out with me while the kids zoom up and down the street.

Our Big 3 Year Old

Ava's new favorite place

Ava loves the tile floor. Now that she is cruising all over she loves to hang out under the kitchen table and in the kitchen. This means I have to sweep the floor 3-4 times a day to make sure she doesn't eat anything she's not supposed to, but she's worth it.

Girlie Girls

Alyssa can't wait to have some girl fun with Ava.
She loves playing and holding Ava and does so good with her.
Ava has loved the bead necklaces lately and of course anything
she can put her mouth on so Alyssa took this opportunity to
"play" beauty shop with her.

Putting on Lipstick together!

Shout out to Tanner & Addison

Our FAVORITE Firefighter

Uncle Bill let us take a tour of the Fire Department back there in Hop Town.
The kids loved it. They climbed in and out of the Ambulance and Fire Truck, rung the old bell, saw where fireman eat, sleep and work out there big muscles in the weight room. They got a fire hat and loved every minute. Thank you Bill you are awesome!!! We miss you guys.

Buck & Bella

Brad's parents got a couple of dogs for themselves
over Christmas and the kids loved them...
well Ava wasn't sure about them!
They are Catahoola dogs and named them Buck and Bella.

Donuts!!

Uncle Edward & Corbin. Dig in!!

Merry Christmas!!!

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Christmas Pancakes

We couldn't resist making such festive pancakes for breakfast one morning. It started out with one snowman and became baby snowmen and stars, candy canes, Christmas tress. The kids enjoyed eating the heads off the snowmen.

Corbin's 3rd Birthday

Corbin had a Dinosaur Party for his birthday this year. He had some friends over to have cake and ice cream and then we opened presents. The fun continued when we went outside and roasted marshmallows over our fire pit and made smores. Too bad the birthday boy doesn't like marshmallows, but his sister does. Edward and Kelli came to visit this weekend. The kids loved them to death, didn't let them rest at all the whole weekend. We had a fun time with them.

Thank you for the Dinosaurs Grandma and Grandpa Marshall
