A Tip to Flagstaff

We have some friends who live up in Flagstaff which is a mere 3 hour drive from home. Derek was working for a few days straight and my friends husband was out of town so we decided to be "alone" together. We did lots of fun things while we were there, such as visit Santa!








Liam didn't really have much of an opinion of Santa. However, he throughly enjoyed the candy canes he was passing out!

One of the mornings we were there we woke up to a couple of inches of snow. The girls were overjoyed! Berlynn couldn't wipe the smile off of her face! Then of course, there is Liam and me.

The mountain behind their house. There is also one in front of their house, but for some reason I don't have a picture of it.

This picture cracks me up. Actually what comes to mind is Christmas Story. He really couldn't move let alone put his arms all the way down. It was funny watching him try to get around.

Yes, she loved the snow so much that she is swimming in it.

Alana loved the snow as well. She is just more dainty about it than Berlynn.

A boy and his balloon...

are not soon parted! He was so excited that he finally got a balloon of his own. He just kept looking at it and making it bounce up and down. When I went to get him out of the car....there he was. Sound asleep. With the balloon firmly clutched in his little hand. How cute?

Liam's Christmas Photo Shoot!

Just some fun pictures of the boy at Christmas time. He just happened to be wearing a green shirt!

Saint Marys Gear!

I guess we just like to represent! Everyone...even Liam is wearing their SMC shirts. Well, the girls' are more like dresses. They always want to wear it and make ever excuse to be cold to put it on. Then, I can never get them to take it off!

A trip to the Zoo

We took a trip to the zoo in the beginning of November. We had fun and the kids sure do love it! We always laugh because Berlynn calls it "the ka-zoo." So, in her words..."I LOVE the ka-zoo. We need to go back again!"

Halloween Dress Up

Liam of course was a Notre Dame Football player. I mean what else could he have been? He even had a hat to go with his official jersey. I just somehow managed to not get a picture of it!Even Daddy got into the Notre Dame spirit! I see another movie in the making; watch out Rudy!

There he is! Lucky number 7! Of course, we don't believe in luck of anykind unless it is the "Luck of the Irish!"

Of course, the girls wanted to be princesses. I mean, what else does a girl want to be? So, here are the girls, with the neighbor girl out doing their princess thing! Funny how the neighboor girl is the only one posing!

Finally....

So, I decided to be a nerd tonight and play around with the layout. Now, I know none of you probably care about what color anthing is or what order it is put in....all you want are the pictures. So, I guess I will go ahead and start posting again!
