Spring Break 2010

So after we got tons done around the place the first part of spring break we decided the second part we would go visit Grams and Pops. The girls were so excited and what a great trip we will take the 2 hrs and 45 min. drive vs the 5 + hour drive anytime. The girls could watch 2 DVD's and be there. We were all so excited to get out of Carey and out of the snow and actually see green grass and flowers starting to grow.

The girls informed Pops that they were coming for their hair cut appointment. Vanessa has been wanting for awhile to cut her hair short she hated brushing her long hair. So after a lot of talking with her dad (who did not want her to cut her long hair) Vanessa, Pops, Auntie Lisa and Mommy won and Vanessa got her hair cut.

Here is Vanessa after her hair was cut she was so excited and has done something with it every day. She says the next step is a trip to see Auntie Lisa so she can get a perm in it because she wants it curly all the time. Poor girl was cursed with her mothers straight hair.

This was Trista after her hair cut (she just wanted it trimmed and layered because she likes her long hair)...she is trying to teach her Auntie Lisa chess but it was like trying to teach her mom pointless lol.

Natalia couldn't figure out what all the hype was and what Pops was doing to her sisters hair. Nope Natalia didn't get a hair cut she doesn't have enough to cut yet.

This is Vanessa's hair before she got it cut.

She told Pops what she wanted him to do to her hair and he said ok and started cutting she was so scared and wondered if she had made the right choice.

Thanks Grams and Pops for a great couple of days we had a lot of fun. It was so fun to see Auntie Lisa and Mark, Kristi and Jackson also :)

Big Girl

So I was getting ready to put the baby stuff away in the shed and I have done this before and every time I do Natalia insists on swinging in her swing which she is so not little enough for anymore but she loves it and sits in there for so long and when she is done swinging then she has to dig out her baby dolls and they have to swing also. It is so adorable I love it.

Natalia is a big girl now in the girls room and loves her bed. Thanks Grams and Pops for the bed :) She loves being big.

Look at this adorable "I'M A BIG GIRL" smile

Christmas in March

So in Ryan's family I always laugh and you have to love them. We did not see Ryan's siblings for Christmas this past year with his parents move and everything it just didn't work out. So here it is in March and we had a family dinner one night in Twin and decided after dinner to let the kids play at the Arctic Circle play ground to get them wore out to sleep on the way home. Well we all figured what a great place to have Christmas presents in the parking lot out of the trunk. It was so much fun you gotta love moments like these ones you will never forget.

Lisa's present to the parents

This is all 3 of our girls and Lisa's son Casey (he is 7 months older than Trista)

Valentine's Day

I am a big sucker for Valentines day!!! I think its all the bright colors and just the love about it all. I wanted the kids to have something they could use so I chose the big pillows but Ryan had tons of fun with the little toys lol. It was a great Valentines Day. Ryan took his 4 girls and went and had a great day together. We love Daddy he is so much fun.

new puppy

My mom called yesterday and said to bring the girls over she had something to show them. Well my dad had brought home my mom a new dog. Isn't he so cute. Last time they had a puppy Vanessa was a baby. Now the biggest challenge is a name that everyone can agree on lol.

Natalia loved the puppy as long as she touched it and he didn't touch her lol

Trista just loves any animal so she couldn't wait to hold him

Videos of Girls sledding

We took the kids to the gravel pit today sledding they had so much fun.

This is Vanessa riding down on her sled and hitting the bump...yep my kids are screamers lol so funny though.

This is Vanessa and Trista sledding...Trista missed the bump at the end though

Trista turns 6

Well it is official and we still can't believe it our little "Peanut" Trista turned 6 a few days ago. We cannot believe how fast she has grown. After having Vanessa Ryan said he wanted a girly girl well he is in trouble and put his foot in his mouth and now has two lol. Trista would defiantly rather buy clothes and shoes than toys she loves shoes especially. Ryan says Trista has been good for me because she is so much like me in the attitude department but thankfully my mom says that I wasn't close to having as much attitude (as she laughs at us). She makes life so much fun though.

This was Trista just before going to school she was so proud that she was finally 6.

My mom does a fun thing for the girls on their birthday and does a treasure hunt with clues they love it. Well here is Trista in a skirt and snow boots on one of my mom's snow hills. No wonder my mom laughed when we walked in the house and Trista didn't have her snow clothes on.

Here are the girls. Vanessa reading the clues to Trista and Natalia.

She was so excited to get shoes it was funny. What a sweet heart she was and let Natalia try these on first sadly we deal with Natalia thinking these are her's now and Trista can borrow them.

Vanessa and Natalia got Trista a big box of chips because if anyone knows Trista she is always eating chips she loves them.

This is what Aunt Debbie Haynie got Trista she was so excited they were perfect.

Yes more shoes and these got even more surprise. What a girl :)

Grams & Pops got Trista this Weaving Loom she wouldn't go to bed till she finished her first one she even tried to sleep with it. So cute. She loves arts and crafts.

She was so proud of her daddy to get her "extra cheesy" goldfish her favorite...daddy got in trouble a few months ago for not getting "extra cheesy" so now he remembers what to get lol.
