9 Oct - Playing with Tia Nai

The kids love that they can rough house or "play" with their Tia Nai! (Tia Naomi). So here's some loving shots of the kids playing with Tia Nai.

 They love her sooo much!

7 oct- Bella the Mermaid

This year we bought Bella's Halloween costume at Costco. They just happened to be on sale so we bought it a little early.  Well when we got home she insisted on tyring it on and wearing it. So here is Bella  "hamming" it up for the camera!

Owen wanted to be a "fishy" too.
She he brought me his swimmer shirt that had "fishy" on it.

Can you tell these kids like to take pictures! We love em!

Oct 1 - Sat General Conference

Last year during General Conference, we found that if we set the kids up in laundry baskets they sat still for a while and actually watched. This year, Victoria remembered what we did last time and wanted to repeat it! Except she switched out Owen for Tiara! So we took a picture of our "girls"

 watching General Conference.

Victoria, Tiara and Isabella

17 Sep- Happy Birthday Girls!

For the girls Birthday this year we went low key! It was hard because we would've loved to have a great grand birthday party with lots of friends but, it just wasn't happening. Can't have one every year right? We still had a fun birthday for the girls!

A special friend came over my visiting teacher Courtney.  She is a professional entertainer/clown.
So she shared her skills with us and made the girls and kids some things!

Here they are with their bouquet of flowers and Josh with a dolphin!

The girls (more Victoria) wanted a Mario cake!
 Bella went along because Victoria hyped it up.

So Since Victoria loves the Wii now her gift this year was Mario Cart!

Bella got a pretty "Blue princess" Barbie friend.
It was funny because we were looking through the ads and
she specifically pointed out that she wanted the blue one
not the pink Barbie one!

She was so loving the new game!

Our party guest was my Dad
(which it meant a lot to me)
 that he came to be there for the girls' Birthday!

Our other party guest was Emma.
 Our next door neighbor, the girls' best little friend!

They had a great birthday! Happy Birthday Victoria and Isabella!

2 Sep -Josh's Foot ball game!

1 Sep - Gigi's play date

On the 1st of Sep we had walked the kids to school. On the walk home we spotted this white puppy roaming the street. Twice she had almost got hit by a car so we went over befriended the puppy scooped her up and tried to return her to her home. No one was there so we (the kids and I decided to bring her over tour house for a while until her family came home to take care of the little pup)

Her she is in the backyard with Gigi

They played together and such fun running around!

It was so great to see Gig playing like a puppy again!

The kids really got a kick out of having a "puppy" at our house

Here is Own chasing after the puppy, calling it saying "puupppeyyy"
He would get close enough to touch her, squeal and run off! Too cute!

After a while we took the puppy home.
She was yipping too much for me and making a mess getting dirty
 It was fun to have a puppy come play but I'm glad we don't have a puppy!
