Izabella loves everything pink. When she goes to sleep at night she tells me, "I am going to dream of pink princesses in pink castles and pink ponies and pink ice cream and pink school buses that take me to pink school etc.. etc.. etc.." Of course mom loves it because I love pink too. And what is cuter than a little girl in pink? Here she is in a dress up pink ballerina outfit with a pink feather in her hair.
We had a birthday this past weekend!! Our Duncan, aka Deddlebug, turned 7 years old with a bang. We did a big birthday party at the local bowling alley with balloons, pizza, presents and cake and ice cream!! What a blast!!
We had a blast bowling. We had some strikes, spares, and even (for all you bowlers out there) a 7-10 split!
On Duncan's actual birthday, we had his best friend's family over for dinner and cake and ice cream to celebrate our deddlebug's birthday.
For the past year we have been struggling to get our VCR to work. When we think about it, we try to fiddle around and get it to work, with no luck. Finally, we have realized that it is just too old. This was the original VCR we got when we got married 15 years ago, and it is just too outdated to work with the more updated technology. So we had to go get a new one. The old one is just trash, unable to be even used for parts. So on Thanksgiving day Theran and Jake spent the day taking apart the old VCR and figuring out how it all works. Jake thought it was the coolest thing ever.
We had our annual ward Christmas party this past weekend. This year was especially meaningful because mom is now on the activities committee. I did get to sneak away from my duties to snap a few pictures of the kids with Santa. If you can see Ashton's mad face you'll laugh to know that he was mad and wouldn't sit on Santa's lap because Santa wasn't daddy. He knew that the suit Santa has on is ours, so he thought it was Theran being "Santa's Helper". He was MAD it wasn't dad.
My girls. The most beautiful things in the world to me.
I thought Bella was going to freak out sitting on Santas lap. But she told him she wanted "Dora". Anything Dora will do for her.
