Introducing the Newest member of our Family!

This is Buddy! He is a Springer Spaniel. As you can see I wasn't really sure about the idea of having a puppy at first. (we just haven't had the best luck with dogs)

But We really Love him!

Our niece Shelby got married a couple of weeks ago! I can't believe how she

is all grown-up! Congrats you Cute Couple! Doesn't she look beautiful! Ashlyn was mesmerized by her all night

we had to have a picture with her :)

Here Ashlyn is watching Shelby's every move and

constantly commenting how pretty the "Princess Bride" is!

When they cut the cake and Shelby threw her boquet she hardly moved a muscle...

I think she was waiting for the prince to sweep Shelby right off her feet

to a dance!(she thinks that what happens when you get married is you dance...hey why not!)

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas filled with lots of Love and Laughter!

This is the first year we have cut down our own Christmas tree since Parker was a baby!

The kids had lots of fun and we might just make it Tradition.

Here it is before we cut it down (below)

And after (above)

We lost Kolter behind it one day. He spotted a Christmas ball under there

and there was no stopping him...it did take a minute to find him. Obviously he

is not too worried about being found!

We did get to visit Santa and to Kolter he was a very interesting man!

Ashlyn did have her concerns...reluctantly she did finally sit on his lap!
