Happy 100th Post!

Wow, I can't believe I've been blogging for this long! I also can't believe how much I really enjoy it. I've always loved writing in my journal, but when the kids started coming, I found myself writing less and less. Since I've been blogging, I write a lot more and I feel like my family will have some fun things to look at and read as they grow older. I also take more pictures than before and have developed a love for that too.

I've been thinking a lot about going private with the blog, and by January I think I will. SOoo, if you are going to want to continue watching and reading about us, let me know and I'll send you an invite!

Here are a few pictures as of late that haven't made it onto the blog yet, but that I really like.

Silly Lincoln is always doing something with his hands. He flaps, claps, does the chicken and sometimes he'll stroke my cheeks very softly; so softly that it tickles. Although his hands are very "Lincolnesque" in this picure, it's his belly button I love the most.

Our Ward had the primary be the nativity at our Christmas party this year. I liked how this picture turned out. Dan was out of town for this, so these pictures are for him.

Some more of the nativity.


Owen and his little friend at the ward Christmas party. Since Dan wasn't able to be there with me, a lot of people from my ward stepped up and helped me all night. I really love them all. They are good people!


Ah, first love. This I can handle. It's the teenage years I'm worried about.



Speaking of love, here's Logan and his best friend from school and church. We carpool with her and her family a lot. Aren't they cute?




A behind shot of Logan as a shepherd.

My boys.

Another shepherdly picture.

Here's the picture I'll show Ellie when she's grown up to explain why she's so tuff. Her brothers love being as close to her as possible! Who knew that three of them would fit in her crib?
