Isn't she sweet?

Looks can be deceiving. ;)

Happy Tractor Day

So I am a little bit behind and have to ketchup...catsup....catch up. Ha ha just had to do that. Anyway, in no particular order. Sammy had her dance recital on Feb. 5th. She did awesome and looked so cute. Her tumbling has improved so much.

Braxton participated in Jr. Jazz again this year. He loves it. He got to be on the same team as two other boys in our ward. Hopefully he will get a lot more practicing once we get a new hoop in our front yard.

My brother Cameron and his family moved back from Florida and are actually staying in Idaho for the time being but can drive down here in no time. They came over and decorated cookies at our house over Valentines day weekend. The kids had fun decorating and eating. :)

Here is more of Braxton's birthday. Applebee's kids meals are $1.99 on Mondays. Worked out pretty well. :) Plus, they embarassed Braxton pretty good.

Happy Val....I mean Happy Tractor Day. So my younger brother and his ex roomies always celebrated Tractor day instead of Valentines Day. They made Tractors the shapes of pancakes and had manly games of sorts, I guess. Anyway, He has been married 3 1/2 months (Yes it is plural now T & K). We all wondered whether they would be celebrating Tractor Day or Valentines day. Of course my brother was smart enough to take care of his sweet wife. But of course they had a little Tractor Day celebration on the side. We got John Deere gift bags filled with Tractor Day goodies. We all got a good laugh from that.

Isn't She Lovely! Isn't She Wonderful!

Happy Valentine's Day Ruthanne!

You are our life and we are Eternally blessed because of everything you do
for and sacrifice for us. Thank you for a wonderful dinner date last night.
Love, Braxton, Sammy, Tayden, Clarissa and Corey.

Hair Big!

On facebook everyone is changing their profile picture with one of yourself and your loved one. Well, I chose this one. It is the engagement picture we sent out to everybody. Last night Clarissa was holding the framed picture in her hand. I walked into the room and she wanted to show me the picture. I asked her who it was and she mumbled a word or two. She then proceeded to say

"look at your hair, at your hair....big."

After the fact she told me my hair's now small. Gotta love my two year old.

Happy 10th Birthday Braxton!!!

I have a child in double digits. How did I let that happen? I love him so much. He's grown up way to fast. Yesterday at Sam's Club he saw these cupcakes and wanted those for his birthday cake instead of me making one. Less stress on me I guess. :) We had a busy day grocery shopping, lunch at Chick-fil-A and Sammy's dance recital. Poor Braxton had to go watch his sister dance on his birthday. He was a good sport about it though. After the performance Grandpa and Grandma Hotton and Aunt Ashlee came to have cake with us. Grandma and Grandpa Fuller didn't make it but they came to the performance and wished him a Happy Birthday there. We'll be celebrating again later with them on Sunday anyway. He is definitely loved! Happy Birthday Braxton!

My girls

I just think it is so cute when my girls play together. Sammy has started doing her hair in ways that she thinks looks really cute. So when Clarissa will let her, Sammy will do her little sisters hair the same way. They are just so cute and I just love them so much.
