Cutie Pie!

Baby Anne turned 10 months this week. She is such a fun, happy, cute, & lovable baby! I kiss her all day long! Here she is in her b-day suit. Do they have Jenny Craig for infants?! No.. we love her rolls!

A little Christmas catch-up

Okay, so I'm a little behind..... where did January go?? Here are some shots at Temple Square. What can help you get the spirit of Christmas more than 10 million lights, music and larger-than-life statue of Christ? It is one of our favorite traditions.



It was fun having Big G'pa and G'ma Macdonald for Christmas. We spent Christmas Eve with Christa & Steve's family.

Caleb's choir

Caleb joined the school choir this year... here is the Christmas Concert. Thanks Gma & Big Gpa for coming down! Before the concert I asked him where he'd be standing so I'd know where to sit. "In the front, Mom. I'm kinda short." REALLY?! I wonder where he got that!? ;)

Feed Me!

FEED ME NOW! Little Anne looks like she is going to hurt someone if she doesn't get some food! Next photo: a happy little camper with a full belly!! She is sooo fun and just a sweetheart! We all just eat her up!

Toothy Luke

All Luke wants for Christmas is his TWO FRONT TEETH! He wiggled his teeth so much they just HAD to come out! :) He was sooo excited to get $$ from the tooth fairy.

Farm Animals

Caleb saw me posting pictures this morning and said, "You have to put the animals on there, Mom!" So... here they are! The bottom chicken is our prettiest one... and she lays blue eggs! We have 14 hens that lay between 9-12 eggs a day and 4 pigs named Pork Chop, Bacon, Sausage, and BabyBack Spare Ribs. The first time we ate BBQ ribs the boys thought they were in heaven. Caleb said, "I don't think I'll ever eat another meal as good as this one!"








And coming soon.... HONEY BEES! There's Eric in his beekeeper suit. We were given a couple of hives this fall and we'll buy 2 more in the Spring.
I can't wait for
some fresh honey!

Crazy Garden

We grew some funky fruit in our garden this year.... We fed the horse lots of melons and squash last summer and put all the manure in the garden this spring.... and well... here is a great example of cross-pollination!! This one had the shape of a squash, the outside color was dark like a zucchini, the inside flesh was orange like a cantaloupe, and it tasted like a cucumber!
