Family Pictures 3/2013

Chelci did such a good job taking our pictures again! The kids keep getting bigger too FAST! They are both so beautiful:)

Right now Averie loves to read, she is doing such a good job in Kindergarten. She loves gymnastics and playing with her friends/cousins. She is such a good learner, even at church! She is always aware of everything going on around her...never misses a thing!

Easton is so excited for his birthday that is in two weeks! It will be a CARS party, he is obsessed with cars! He is talking pretty well(I understand him perfectly;) and he has a lot to say! He is as strong willed as I have ever seen...I'm sure it will be of use to him his whole life but it can make my life a little complicated.

These two are so fun together, you would never guess that they are nearly 3 years apart!

Wayne is enjoying his new job here in Saint George. He works so hard and I am so grateful for that! I think he was most excited to come back so that he could get back to playing basketball again:)

I am still working doing hair and training for my first Sprint Triathlon! I am so glad to be home and able to stay with my parents through this hard time:)

Mom

Last week mom finished her last chemotherapy! It is definitely time for her to be done, her body is done, and her mind is absolutely done! I am so grateful that we have been able to be here through this...its a horrible feeling to be far away when things like this are going on in your family. Heavenly Father definitely provided the right time and circumstances for us to come back to Saint George. I hope that Averie and Easton will remember some things from living here...Easton likes to kiss my mom ( sometimes on her bald head) and Averie reads to my mom and makes her toast! Mom has never been one to talk about her feelings and she has always taught by example. I wanted to remember why I took this picture, she felt awful this day and all of a sudden she disappeared. ..I go outside and there she is:) if I'm going to feel like crap I'm not going to just sit there too! I love her

New Children's Museum!

We have been WAITING for this new museum to open! At least once a week we made it to the old one...in the not so nice part of town...now that we live in saint george again we had to make a trip down to check out the new place! The kids love it! They are growing up so fast and we love watching them play...you can learn so much about their little personalities:) Averie wanted to play in the grocery area and be in charge of getting kids their bread...Easton loved the water...the wetter the better!!

CHRISTMAS 2012

This year was out in Tropic at grandma and grandpa Ott's house!
Averie asked santa for a new journal again because last year he brought the wrong one;) she wanted the one that you open with your voice?? Thank goodness he got it right this time! Most of all she wanted an Easy Bake Oven!
Easton asked santa for new racecars! He delived:) .50 cars and he's in heaven! He also wanted some toy guns:/ he loved them....Christmas morning Averie jumps up out of bed ready to get the awesome started!! Easton not so much, it was so cute watching her try to wake him up...her and Madi finally were shaking and tickling him just so he would wake up:)
Loved making the snowman and of course visiting Mr. and Mrs. Clause at the firestation is always fun! This season we made wayyyy to many cookies:)

Miss Averie

This girl is so much like I was when I was little:) she loves to make and create things out of random STUFF!

MENCHIE'S

Our new favorite place to go when dad is working ALL night! Don't worry we usually take him some:)

Gymnastics

These two love gymnastics...I think Averie loves the outfit;) and Easton loves jumping off of things and doing flips!
