All I want for Christmas are my two front teeth!

Sarah lost her front tooth on Monday the 9th...and the very next day while she was jumping around so excited to be at her cousin Brooklyn's house she lost the other one in a head collision!!! She says she looks like she is 7 now!

My Showgirls!

School got out the end of May and we had one week where I let the girls do whatever they wanted. One day they watched TV for about 6 hours...goodbye brain cells! It was my birthday and if you want to see a picture of my present go to Honda Odyssey 2007. The first week of June we got ready for the girls dance recital. Sarah danced to Peppermint Twist and Alison to Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy. They were the best...and I am not just saying that because I am their mom...my mom agreed.

Two medals!!!

And the winner is... Sarah took first place at the Coral Canyon Science Fair in the kindergarten division. Congratulations! Her project was about what shape of ice melts the fastest. Just in case you were wondering...it was the heart shape. (My picture is blurry...bummer.) Alison participated in the choir at school this year and really enjoyed it. She was awesome.
I forgot to mention in the April post that we went to Denver and decided that that is not where we want to be. It was a nice place, but just not for us.

April...also a long time ago!

Lauren loves water. My other two were much more timid. We went to the pool the other night and she pretended like she was swimming free-style. Her arms were just going around and around! Alison was a crazy monkey in the 2nd grade play. Her class got to sing a song about "goin bananas for video games." It was very well done. (Just a side note...the boy to her right is Noah and he called Alison after school got out just to see what she was doing...cha cha cha!)

Easter... a long time ago!

This is the only picture I got of us in our Sunday dresses that day.

Easter was in March this year, right? We went up to a baby blessing in Cedar and stopped by Uncle Paul's and Grandpa Stucki's. The Arbon's were down for the weekend and we had an egg hunt with them. It was tons of fun to have all those crazy kids around!

THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH

We just had a fabulous week in Anaheim. The girls were able to get on all of the big rides, but still got a thrill out of the simple ones. Sarah said her favorite part was when Jasmine waved at her at the end of the Alladin musical. Alison thought it was pretty cool too! The first ride Monday night was Dumbo and the last ride Friday was Space Mountain. They went on just about everything in between. It took my mom to convince them that Pirates and the Haunted House weren't too scary to go on! Lauren was a trooper too. She and I spent some time in the hotel room resting which is a good thing to do on a vacation too. It seemed the perfect time of year to go...not too many people and not too hot.

John is quite the prince with all his princesses. We were all pretty exhausted after a fabulous week. What an exciting family vacation that we will always remember.

Super Bowl Sunday brought more than a game surprise! During the game we enjoyed a snow storm. The next morning we woke up to this beautiful scene in the backyard.

There is something so clean and peaceful about a snow storm. I love the stillness and quiet that exists. I know I can only say this because I only see it once or twice a year, but I do love it.
