Our Easter Egg!

A few months ago Grant got in our laundry basket and put a second basket on top of him. He said, "Look mom, I'm an egg!" It was so cute I had to take a picture!
The prize inside the egg!

See his eyes peeking out!

He is adorable!

Happy 12th Birthday Allie

Our 12 year old!

Allie turned 12 this year--she is growing up too fast!! For her birthday she got her greatest wish--a phone of her own. She texts a mile a minute and loves keeping in contact with her friends!

She has always wanted a sweatshirt from Victoria Secrets.

Watching the tissue paper fly!

She wanted good waffles for her birthday!

Happy Birthday!!

Beavers Family Beach Portrait

For Spring Break we went to CA to take pics on Laguna Beach with Steve Nissle. It was so much fun! He sent this slide show today and I couldn't resist showing off our kids--they are so cute!! One funny side note--we girls were not used to the weather and all of us except Allie had our hair fluffed and curled and looking fabulous but the more time we spent outside the flatter and straighter our hair became. Allie was the exception because she straightened her hair and it became curlier and fuller! They still looked great!! Why do we want what we don't have??!!

Snow Day!

On January 1st we took a group up to the snow. We went to Happy Jack Lodge where they have some hills to sled down. It was so much fun but oh so cold!! Here are a few pics. of the event! Sara Wind and Ashley Connelly!

My Man! He didn't even have his gloves on and his hands didn't get cold! I call him my heater!!

Happy New Year!

I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I have made some resolutions, as I do every year and I would like to share them with you!

1. Lose Weight (my annual resolution:))

2. Keep this blog up to date!! I was a bit of a slacker in 2010.

3. Organize pictures and start getting caught up with my scrapbooking by making yearly books. I am taking a totally different approach to scrapbooking--we'll see how it pans out!

Those are my resolutions. Not too overwhelming and I have 365 days to accomplish them!

May your 2011 be productive, healthy and happy!
