These are Edie's phones. That's what she said anyway. She makes me laugh.

At Lauren's birthday she received many of her favorite things. This Ken doll and a girl barbie, which she named "Kenna". Her Aunt Amy found a great use for the tutu she got as well.

Lauren's 4th Birthday. (As can be seen this was not recent..Sept 25th to be exact.)

Is this boy not one of the cutest kids ever?! Well I think he IS one of the cutest kids ever and will gladly take him on anytime his parents want to spare him :) This is my nephew Collin.

Here's my princess who will be two tomorrow. I am eternally grateful that she has survived! Since April she has broken her leg and her upper arm. She had a nasty case of hives recently as well. I am really hoping that we have seen the last of the x-ray machine. This pic was taken in Fredricksburg at the house/plantation that the Union army occupied. Specifically this was the surgery room where blood still stains the floor boards.

We gave Amelia my old camera because Chris gave me a new one for my b-day.
You should see her blog.

Island Park in August.

This was the Colorado Ice Festival and they hadn't quite gotten everything carved by the time we got there, however they did have an ice throne and of course my girls are princesses and must sit on it. :)

On the way home from Katie's wedding Lauren sang us a beautiful song. What a cutie. And then she fell asleep...even better :) The only words I can make out were, "I do wonderful clapping. Yes I do, yes I do clapping...".

Oh I love these girls.

At the luncheon for Katie (Chris' sister) and her new hubby Ben. Chris and Edie are so cute. Too bad Edie tossed her cookies about 10 min. after this photo. She was sick the rest of the vacation. Ugh.

This is in front of the Rexburg temple. There was such a problem of ice and snow up the hill

that Katie and her parents, who left 45 min. before we did got there at the same time as we did. We should have sent them in our Subaru....Thank you AWD!

While visiting Idaho for Christmas we also visited Great Grandma Evans. Great Grandpa had already left for work or he would have been in the pic as well.

Gearing up for Christmas.

The Forney Museum = pure awesomeness for kids who love, cars, trains, planes and bikes. http://www.forneymuseum.org/ Who is driving this jeep? Too bad the pumpkins are there. It sort of ruins the effect that they could actually be driving the car :) Thank goodness our cousins, Timmy and Wesley were here to share in this pure awesomeness.

This is Amelia's favorite car because it was Amelia Earhart's car, the Gold Bug Kissel. Go Amelia!

Edie's take on parenting. She did this all by herself.

Halloween, obviously. They were so cute! It probably goes without saying, however Lauren was Snow White and Amelia was a black widow spider.

In October we had some great snow. I love these pictures of the kids. They had a great time.

Lauren's 3rd birthday.

And Edie's 1st birthday sans friends....we didn't invite anyone is that bad? It's our third child and she's only one.....that's my excuse.

Edie hit her head pretty hard and the blood drained through her eye socket so she had a shiner for 1 straight week. It looked pretty bad. But this pic of her is pretty funny. She was eating yogurt.

It has been a long time since last posting so I'm going to play catch up chronologically. Here's the girls on their first day of school.
