New Photos

I am working on getting some new photos of the girls put on the side. I just realized that Kaitlyn is now wearing the dress that Laureli is in and that means it's an old photo!

Almost the last half of 2009

It has been awhile since I have posted and lots happens when you let it fly. Just a few of the big things that we did and I acutally took pics of. I really need a camera I like so that I will take photos more often. I will also try and post more often this year - nope it's not a resolution.



Huckleberry picking with the girls. Kaitlyn wasn't have so much fun.

Laurlei was a trooper though.

Some random photos. Laureli is feeding the baby (on the still unstained bunk beds).

Kaitlyn turns 2!!!!

She wanted cup cakes.

Daddy helps with gifts!

Halloween! It took all day to get her hair like this!

Pretty princesses

had to borrow my costume because no one can resist a wig!

I just dressed up - that's right there was no one person I was trying to go for!

Winter snow angles - Kaitlyn is getting the hang of it.

Laureli must make a snow angle every snow!

I know I didn't post Laureli b-day or Christmas - I will get those in the next week. PROMISE!

Fishing trip

We had a Max Nelson Reunion this year at Lava Hot Springs. It was a lot of fun and a lot of HOT. One of the cousins brought his soft serve ice cream maker - YUMMY. Laureli also got to go fishing and Uncle Fred helped her catch her 1st fish. Her cousins are sweeties because they let her catch it when it was their dad doing the work.

Jude and Jady with Kaitlyn.

Uncle Fred, Jude, Jady and Laureli.

Laureli fishing with Grandpa.

I do not have a photo of the fish being caught. I do believe that Grandma does - hopefully!

Portland Trip

So, it's been a while since I last posted. In July we went to Portland and spent a couple of days camping near the coast. I MISS it there so much. I thought I would let you see a little bit of our fun.

A picture in the tent. They are in the "dogs spot."

1st night, the sunset.

Fun in the sand. Kaitlyn wasn't at the beach the 1st night.

After the sun had set.

2nd day. Sand angels.
Kaitlyn loved the water, this is her coming back from it.

Our little Family

no bears were harmed during this photo shoot and we don't really own it.
I forgot to post the newest member to our family. Isn't he cute!!! From left to right - Frederic, Kaitly, Laureli, Sydney, and ME.

Lots of photos!!!

This is because I should be better at posting life, but I'm not it, so here a look at things that have happened since December.
Lunch on their own private patio, since it's been warm!

Kaitlyn has a panty thing going on she loves to "help fold laundry" and every time she does she tries items on!

Ring around the rosie
Laureli's cute hair and sad face.
All girl with the joy of doing "boy things." Who knew jewlery and guns went together?

Kaitlyn discovers the fountain that my parents have in their back yard.
She feels it . . .
She listents to it . . .
Drinks from it . . .tries a different fall to make sure they taste the same . . .
And then she checks to see if she is going to get in trouble, "who is watching me?"

Easter

What is more fun than Easter? There are hunts and candy and pretty new dresses and it Celebrates that the Savior gave us life!
Fred's Easter Basket.
Laureli's Easter Basket.
Kaitlyn got an east basket as well, but she looked so cute finding.
Not always into the matching outfit, but they really are cute!
And of course the Easter dresses.
