kids

Sam my HeMan, Star wars, Batman loving little Man!!
We had a few really nice days it felt like spring when the sun was out. We put new sand in the sandbox and the kids were playing in it all the time again. It really was wonderful. Then it snowed again. :(

New Addition

Well we are finally a Mini Van Family unfortuately. Its ok though it was bound to happen eventually. Lincoln and I used to tease each other that we would get some other kind of car before we got a mini van but really they just get better gas milage have more space and fit more people. Saturday we went to a local dealership and bought ourselves a Honda Oddessy 2006. Its light tan or gold and seats eight people and has 12 cup holders. I love it. Lincoln also got offer a Loan Officer Position with American West Bank which he accepted last monday. We are also very very excited about this. So the Mini Van is our new addition. That is all!!

In the snow

These are from a few weeks ago but we had a great big snow dump and the kids loved playing and digging in it.
Sam and Madee made a snow man and did a mighty fine job.
Madee got a new dress for taxmas and Sam got a new white shirt and tie and he looks a lot like his friend Robbie in this picture its cute.

Feeling Crafty

Yes I have been feeling crafty lately a few of the projects I have been working on. I knitted these super cute boots. Never made boots before so I was happy to be able to make them. I have mostly made hats so I have been trying harder things the last little while. It was fun.
I was reading this tutorial on how to make boxes to be better organized and well these are the third try. I like these boxes best they were made with fabric and cardboard boxes. They are 10 inch boxed and I think I will store toys in them.
This was my second try at boxes these ones are about 5 inch boxes. Sam and Madee love having there own to put what ever they want in them. It took me a couple tries to get them to go together just right.
I have also been dabbling in some crocheting. Partly because my Aunt (Aunt Dorothy) is always making amazingly cute things with crochet and I would like to be better at it and not limited to knitting. So I learned how to make these flowers on some tutorial on you tube. The other reason I was learning is to maybe try and teach some beehives in our ward. We will see. Happy Crafting!!

Madee's School Christmas Program

Madee and all the other kindergarders in her school did a really cute program "Who is smarter then our Class" They sang a bunch of cute songs.
Then they tested their knowledge against Santa. It was cute and they did a great job.

Here is what Sam did during the program :)

Chirstmas pictures I forgot

Here are a couple pictures that I realized I had not posted. Sam and Madee helped me put together a ginger bread house at Christmas time.
It might have been more fun to eat the candy off the house.
