Catch up on 2010

With the last few hours of 2010, I guess I will caught up so that I can have a fresh start on 2011. I’ll get some pictures up from spring, summer, fall, and winter. Be ready for a long post!

Kiah learned to blow a bubble with bubble gum.

She is the queen of wiggling her teeth out. She can’t stand having a loose one!

The kids at school called this her evil tooth. She wiggles them so much, but won’t actually pull them out. She leaves them hanging there until they fall out. She ate her fist one while eat eating a pretzel.

This is just something funny t hat Kiah did. I found it pretty creepy to walk in and see animals and babies hanging from her bed. She loves to “decorate”. I never know what I’ll find.

We had a great time this summer in Door County. Here’s the kiddos at one of our last stops at Kopps for a while.

The kids could have spent all day at the beach.

My mom took us to PC Junction for the first time. It’s a restaurant where a train come and serves you your food. The kids LOVED it!

One random day Schy decided to draw moustaches on the kids. They thought it was hilarious!

Schy and Micah grew their hair out really long then got it cut together.

We picked out our pumpkins, fed goats, and went in a corn maze. Afterwards we went to the park to play. A great day!

We had our big move out to Utah at the en d of October. We took the trip in three days and it went pretty well. Schy’s dad came out to help us and drive the truck. That was a big help! The kids did great, and we’re now (mostly) settled in.

We arrived on Halloween evening. They kids got to go on a quick trick or treating trip. Kiah was a bird nest and Micah was the earth.

The kids carved pumpkins the next night.

I don’t have any pictures of Kiah’s birthday. I think they’re on Schy’s mom’s camera. She turned 7! I still can’t believe it. Micah turned 4. He went with me to the store because I needed cocoa for the cake. He saw the chocolate chips and needed them on the cake. Very chocolaty and yummy! (I don’t know what Kiah’s doing in the background.)

We had a b-day party for both the kids at my sister’s house. Most of the cousins were there. It was so much fun. It had an under the sea theme. First we colored pictures.

I made some playdoh that was supposed to look like sand. The kids actually enjoyed it a lot and totally got the idea. That made me happy.

Next was the fishing game, a favorite of my kids.

We’re doing some kind of cheer.

We spent an awesome weekend at a cabin in Park City with my family. Uncle Ben kept tradition with gingerbread house decorating.

We went with my family to Cabela’s to see Santa. This was my kids first time visiting Santa. Kiah is sure it was the real Santa because she could tell that his beard was real. Micah was sure it wasn’t the real Santa because Santa is too busy getting ready for Christmas.

We went to see the temple square lights. Wonderful!

Kiah had her Christmas program at school. I was so happy because I had two whole weeks off from work and I got to go!

That wraps up 2010. I will try to post more often this coming year.
