What we've been up to . . .

spring soccer

Jay & Brandt had fun being on the same basketball team this year!

Ty had his cast for 2 weeks. He was still his happy little self! He got it off the day before I had Kendra . . . his new baby sister.

This is a little update on Ty. He is our little climber. I took these pictures a month or two ago but he continues to climb on our table and island every day. This past week he fell off the kitchen chair and broke his arm. Just crazy that it could happen off a kitchen chair that is much lower to the ground. Last weekend was his first time to climb out of the crib too. I am 2 weeks away from having the baby so I am glad Ty is still his happy self with his cast on. The next morning he was running around dribbling his basketball with his left arm. He is such an active little boy! It has been hard keeping up with him this last month of pregnancy. At his brother's soccer games he'll dribble a soccer ball two fields over . . . a very independent little boy and doesn't care if mom and dad are following.

Jay's Baptism

We are so proud of Jay. And what a wonderful experience for us to have our oldest get baptized and for Jay to have an understanding as to why Heavenly Father wants us to be baptized and the importance of this ordinance. Grandpa & Grandma Evanson came in town from Colorado and Grandma Parkinson came in town from Utah. It was a special day for Jay!

Snow Days in Georgia!

The kids had no school for 2 days right after Christmas break. It was more of an ice storm rather than snow! Never thought I would get a picture of our house with snow on it!

Maternity Shoot!

I had a friend from BYU, Becky Kimball, take some pictures of me pregnant! She is an amazing photographer and I am glad we were able to squeeze in a little shoot while we were in Utah with how busy we were with my sister's wedding. I will be having this baby in less than 2 weeks and I am definitely quite larger now!! I love these pictures . . . thanks Becky!

Merry Christmas

We'll just call this Christmas morning . . . even though it was really the 26th. We had a blast in Utah but our travel plans home were a nightmare. We flew home Christmas day and our original flight was cancelled. They separated our family on different flights. I guess Delta didn't realize my kids were not old enough to fly alone. They were able to get our whole family on a 1 am flight back to Atlanta. Ty never slept on an overnight flight. Crazy!! And then it was completely snowing in Atlanta and the 3 hour drive back. A Christmas we'll never forget. We got home at 10 am Sunday morning and walked in the door and celebrated Christmas. Rich and I were exhausted but the kids seemed to have enough energy opening their gifts!!
