Paige wins 1st Place!!!!

Tonight we attended the soil conservation banquet. Paige was receiving an award for the coloring contest. She ended up getting 1st Place. I was so, so proud of her. Her picture was just BEAUTIFUL! Her art teacher told me she has a lot of talent. I told her she will have to work hard next year and design her own picture because she could try and win a bike! That would really be awesome. Zach of course was mad because he NEVER wins anything. What's funny is that Paige even won a door prize---35 red cedar trees! hmmmm now where should we plant them all?

Paige's good friend Jamie was there too. Her sister got an award in the 3rd grade division. Of course I had to get a pic of the two of them together! I got Zach in the picture too. I'm giving the trees to Jamie's folks. They live out on a farm. We will probably plant a couple of trees out at the folks' in Monument.

Charlie's 40th B-day!

Charlie turned the Big 40! I made him a kitty litter cake, doesn't it look YUMMY??? It was hilarious. Robine's mom wasn't impressed with it, lol. Everyone else loved it and had a piece. Little man (Lyam) is getting big. Uncle Roger was having fun with him. So was Zach.

I noticed that we forgot to take a picture of Charlie and the family. That figures, always gabbing and forgetting to take pictures. It was a fun weekend!

Trip to Colorado!

We enjoyed a short trip to Colorado 2 days after Christmas. On Sunday we finally got to meet Matthew! I of course enjoyed the baby time. Paige and Zach enjoyed playing with Rylan and of course getting to hold Matthew too! We finally got Rylan in the picture also.

We also visited Roger's cousin on Monday. All the kids had fun with Zoe and Mylie. We finished off the trip with a visit to the museum. Talk about a zoo, YIKES! we'll have to visit again another time with Aunt Darcie when there hopefully isn't as many people.

After Christmas

After Christmas the kids enjoyed playing. Paige enjoyed putting some tattoos on her body. We like the kind that wash off. The kids posed their webkinz and some other animals they had.
