Our Family

We went to the studio for some more pictures, this time of the whole family. Sarah and I are trully blessed to have these two wonderful girls in our lives. They bring so much joy and happiness! Sure, there are moments when it isn't so picture perfect, but the rewards are well worth it, and we wouldn't have it any other way!

Maroon 5

We finally gave in and bought a new car! With both girls we were having more and more difficulty getting everything into our Mazda hatchback. The 626 served us well and was a great car, but this Mazda 5 seats six and gives us plenty of flexibility to take the family on the road. The sliding doors make it much easier to get the girls in and out, which is a huge plus for Sarah!

Tio y Tia Visit

Tio David & Tia Vanessa are in town and they came over to visit last night. We had a good time catching up while Adrianna had a great time pretending to style David's hair. Then she took advantage of his leaning on the chair and slid down his chest. As always tio, uncle, Kurt, and now David are all synonyms for "Jungle Gym". Tia Vanessa helped put Adrianna to bed, giving her professional advice on teeth brushing and reading the all of Dr. Suess "Horton Hears a Who", Adrianna ensured she read the entire book. Adrianna is always proficient at dragging out bed-time, especially with special guests.

We had a great time, thank you Tio y Tia for your visit, and thanks for helping with the couches David!

Missionary Girl

The Missionaries in our ward stopped by as we were doing some work in our garage last Saturday. We gave them water and fruit and as they got ready to head out Adrianna runs into the house, grabed her backpack and her tricycle and says she wants to go with the missionaries. She was really bummed when we told her she had to stay home. It was a very cute moment for all of us!

Cinnamon Bread

I helped Adrianna make some cinnamon roll bread this Sunday. Adrianna loves to help me bake and she did a great job with this loaf. As you can see, she was very proud of the results. It was delicious!!

LOL (Laughing out Loud)

Sarah and I just had a good laugh looking through some of our pictures when we came upon this one, I hope you get a laugh too.

Daredevil

We got Adrianna this play roller coaster, it is a ten foot track and a cart that she loves to ride. After about an hour of riding it normally (sitting down) she started to stand on the seat, and then she moved to surfing on it from the side. She likes to show off her talents to anyone willing to watch. It is a fun way for her to use some of that excess energy.

Alicia Smiles

One of the most amazing feelings as a father is having your daughter give you a great big grin. Here are some pictures of Alicia and her grins. She is a very happy and mellow girl and she is especially smiley after eating!
