2011 ready or not here we come!

Good Bye 2010.
I will miss you... you were the best year of my life!
Dear 2011: I'm excited to see what you have in store for me.

Lennox finally get's his own swing in the backyard!

Besides swinging, Lennox is finally getting to enjoy some other back yard activities! He likes to ride in the big red car, play in the fort with his brothers, and go down the slide. Spring/Summer time is going to be fun!

NYE at the FM5 casa!

Besides a trip to the doc to find out Lawson has strep, Ron building a new roof for our back patio, a wonderful dinner prepared by Nanny, watching Toy Story 3, the big event of our New Years Eve this year was putting together our gingerbread house. Better late than never! After spending the entire morning constructing the house, they were able to dig into after they ate lunch. Fun times!!

Everyone helping out!


The finished house!

San Fran


Ron has a business trip this this month to San Fransisco. I have always wanted to go to San Fran, so we are taking advantage of Nanny/Dave being here.... I will get to tag along (bringing baby, too!), while the big boys stay back with Grandparents. I'm so excited!!! Baby and I will tour the city while Ron works then spend our evenings with the 3 of us. I'll just be staying 2 nights, but hope to have a great "mini" vacation!

Another Christmas has come and gone....

Every year, our Christmas's keep getting better and better than the last! Boys got spoiled by family and Santa. Funny thing is on Christmas Eve night, Lincoln was asking what Santa was going to bring him because he already had everything he wanted! Both sides of our families really went all out this year, and seriously we could have gone without a Santa visit all together! But as you can see, Santa came by and spoiled them too. Since they both have b-days near Christmas... they get lot's of things but then have to wait a whole year for more!
Now that both boys have new Nintendo DS XL's... all is good!
And, my husband went all out with my gifts. I got a new winter coat, boots, pj's, 10 or so new shirts, a couple of sweaters, cashmere scarf, 3 pairs of ear rings, umbrella, a book.... hmmm I must be forgetting something... THANKS RON!!!!!



From Santa!!!

Yummy Christmas dinner! I laughed at Lawson because this is exactly what we used to do on Christmas while we are waiting for dinner!

Christmas Eve Awesome-ness!!

Not much beats Christmas with 3 little one's! Christmas Eve was fantastic. Lot's of quality family time, fantastic and powerful Christmas Eve service at our church, out for a yummy Italian dinner with the grandparents, home for prayers and Christmas songs, boys got to each pick 5 presents under tree to open, and now we are waiting for Santa to come!

just a bit of randomness

Just a bunch of random pictures I really wanted to share, all out of order, but that's pretty normal.

Reaah and Laela's visit... Our one and only whole group shot!

Me "showing off" my home made loaf of bread.

Lincoln's 7th birthday! Family party tonight. He designed the lovely brownie cake!

One shocked and happy boy to get a Nintendo DS XL !!!! I think he had tears in his eyes, and had to give us hugs! Sweet boy deserved it!


Nanny and Grandpa Dave arrived today!!! More on that to come!

How old are you turning? Seven!!!

Brothers hanging out! Lincoln was home sick from school for 2 days (fever and vomitting), so he wasn't "allowed" to be near and playing with the baby. Today, he was allowed to have contact again, so he spent a lot of time playing and reading to him.

My little sleeping batman!!! He is such a boy!


I love when babies sleep with their behinds up in the air, so cute!!!!

We had cousin Ginger and her 3 kiddo's over for dinner. Here is Ginger and her cute daughter Jenna getting some baby time with Laela and Lennox!

The Geri Girls!

Love Love Love reading books to my boys!!! This one is actually one of those Hallmark recordable books, with Grammy's voice. They love it!!!

And we have kept Laela and Reaah very, very busy!!! I have too many cute pictures to post them all, but here are a few of my favorites from their 1st day in Texas!

Family Christmas Party

My side of the family decided to have our annual family Christmas party early this year. So we packed up, and headed to my brother's home in Manvel (Houston). Boy, did they have a house full!!! The boys had a blast, of course... And it was soooo nice to see and spend time with my Mom, brother and his family, and my 2 sister's and their families.... Hoping to get some more and better pictures from the weekend, but here are some of my fave's I came home with!
