Sorry for the Neglect!

Hello everybody!! Taylor, our soon to be cousin, reminded us that it has been entirely tooooo long since our last post...you can thank Facebook for that!! But we will try to do better....since summer is coming we have alot of fun things planned, so we will keep you all posted!!

G'Nite Sweetheart, G'nite!

Thought this was the most adorable thing...actually made me a little weepy!! Proud mom, i guess! Samantha fell asleep on the couch, and Stephanie took her own blanket (which is a huge deal, they are very possessive of their own blankets!!) and covered her up. The cutest, and I'm glad i had my Flip Video handy!! was she kept fixing the blanket and then leaned over and gave her a kiss!!! then went back to making sure the blanket was on just right! a couple minutes later, post video, she went up to the couch, and pulled her blanket off of Samantha and went and to sleep herself!! not really sure how samantha slept through the hole thing...but she did!! i kept expecting her to wake up and kick stephanie right off the couch!!

A Mother's Prayer

Here's a video mommy has been working on for awhile...she always cries when she watches it...not sure why?? we're just bein' cute! it is a very beautiful song. enjoy!

Stephanie's All Better!

Stephanie has been very sick with a bad cough and cold...Here's a little clip she made to thank everyone for all of their prayers!

My Photos

I am so excited...it is my new toy...well as long as mommy lets me play with it! Mommy's phone takes pictures!! and then i just slide my finger across and i can look at them all...it is the neatest thing. here are a couple of my latest shots...look out Hassas, Scott Andrew, Jasmine, Leila, and all of you other fine photographers!! If you need my help, just call my mom! I'm available!

Makin' Christmas Cookies!

We take Christmas cookies very serious around here. The process takes about 3 days...and nights! We start at Aunt Nini's house making Peanut Butter cookies with kisses and little PB cups. We had to unwrap thousands of kisses...not sure what "thousands" is, but i know it was alot. Then we go to Aunt Terrie's house where we meet up with Aunt Tami, Tanya, Leah, and Grandma Karen. We spend all day makin', bakin', and decoratin'!! Tasting the frosting was the best part! Not sure who tasted more cookies...Stephanie or Papa, but we still had plenty! We had cookies for weeks! I know this post is a little late, but mommy has been playing with her new Flip video camera and learning how to edit...Love this song by George Strait...Enjoy!
