Baby it's cold outside.........

It's funny to be putting those words as my title when it is 100 degrees out today, but this post is long over due & at the time it was around 26 dgrees when these photo's were taken! Back in January we decided to head up as a family to Prescott, AZ. for the day in the middle of a snow storm. CRAZY! I know but if you live in AZ you know we don't get snow to often, so we took our chances & I am glad we did! The grandparents & Mrs. Brenda we're not to thrilled though. They were all a little worried to say the least.
We did have a wonderful time, but boy did we freeze our butt's off! Christian LOVED it until his pants/socks started to get wet from the snow, Baby Noah never liked it! & Rick said " Beth you better get used to it if we ever move to MI."!
It was beautiful though to see a white winter wonderland. Our winters can be so warm in the valley, that it can make it hard to feel like the holiday season.
Funny thing though all the stores closed early due to the weather, you would think these people would be used to this! CHICKENS!

SILLY LITTLE MONSTER.......

I came across these photos of when we took the boys to the park in our neighborhood a few months back. It is AMAZING to me how much Baby Noah has changed in just 5 short months! He is no longer bald with peach fuzz & is actually in desperate need of a haircut, but I just can't bring myself to do it. It means they are no longer a baby once they get that first real haircut! It is sad how fast it all goes by, but I know that make us apperciate it all that much more.

I LOVE YOU BEARY MUCH!

So I am finally getting around to posting this! I was waiting for Rick to put the pic's into a folder for me.
So Christian's Pre-School got to go on a feild trip in January, YES! I said January. to a bear factory & Rick & Baby Noah got to come along. We had so much fun. The kids got to not only make our own bears, but see the behind the scenes of how all the bears (& other fun animals) are made & learn the history of the Teddy Bear & how it came to be.
The kids had fun cleaning their bears, giving them baths, brushing their hair, picking out a ribbon for their bears to wear arounf their necks & lastly picking their name. Christian named his bear Nothing. Rick & I were shocked he didn't name it Thomas after Thomas The Train.

SOUL MATES.....

i LOVE this pick of rick & me. we were trying take a family photo off all of us, but only rick & i got in the pic. i LOVED it so much that i couldn't delete!

SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW

CHRISITIAN FOLLOW THE YELLOW (black) BRICK ROAD!
NOAH I AIN'T LION YOUR CUTE!
This year we all went as the characters from The Wizard Of Oz, it was Christians idea because he lOVES the movie just like mom. It was alot of fun tracking down the costume & coming up with unique ideas on what to do to keep the cost down. We only trick-or-treated our street, that was enough for the boys!

14 YEARS & COUNTING............

Rick & I recently celebrated our 14 yr. wedding anniversary in Michigan. These past 14 yrs. have been AMAZING & I wouldn't change a thing! Okay I am lying I would change my bra size & his hair line (hahaaha no offence of course, lol). CHEERS......here's to many, many more Happy Anniversaries.

SAVE A HORSE RIDE A COWBOY!

A few weeks ago Rick, the boys & I headed up to Globe/Miami for some photo fun. I had to take some pic's for one of my scrapbook challenges: Hat's Off To You Baby. My theme was COWGIRL. As you can see I had waaaaaaay to much fun! We planning to go back & do some fun CHRISTmas pic's. So here I am posong on a jeep & if I remember is late 40's or early 50's & the army Jeep is 1951. While we were taking the photo's the owner came out & I thought he was going to be upset, but oh no! instead he had fun showing us around. That's how I ended up on the jeep! Originally I was only going to do the truck pic's, but before I new it I was on an old tractor & tree stump to! ONE MAN'S JUNK IS ANOTHER MAN'S TREASURE! I can't wait to go back for more pic's & find more discoveries. Here is my finished page for the challenge.
