Turns out I have the worst luck when it comes to electronics. I killed our laptop and our desktop all in about a week of each other. That has been my excuse for not blogging regularly. My sweet hubby did get me a new laptop for Christmas so lets hope that I don't ruin this one :). The past 3 months have come and gone so quickly! From Halloween, Raigen's 4th bday, Thanksgiving, surgery for Jeremy and Christmas it's been super busy. Here are a few pictures to catch you all up :).
Christmas attire. G Thayne in his cute camo tie my mom got him. The girls were so excited for Christmas! We had a cute little elf named Christopher who came and watched them to make sure they were good :). They all were a little sad when he had to go back to the North Pole.
Raigen had a cute little Christmas program at school where they sang songs. She knew them all so well. She is also really good at taking pictures of herself on my phone. Love her!
A week before Christmas my sweet mother in law found out she had kidney cancer. We are lucky enough to have found it when we did. She went in for surgery on the Thursday before Christmas and they were able to remove all of the cancer and 1/3 of her kidney with it. The word cancer scares me and being at the Huntsman Cancer Center really puts life into perspective for you. I'm so grateful for my health and for my families health. So happy Karen is now cancer free. Her recovery is going to be rough but she's one tough cookie. She got released on Christmas day :). The picture of her and Garrett is the day before she went into surgery.
Taylor is already wanting to go hunting with her dad. She knows how to get on his good side.
Our Christmas card this year was AWESOME. Jeremy is always making me laugh and this was just too fun to send out. I love my man.
We went to Idaho to do the Christmas festivities. My mom always goes all out and I love going home. The kids had fun with their cousins. Hunter and Garrett are going to be best buds.
We went over to Great Grandma and Grandpa Stucki's for a day and the kids played dress up and Raigen played us the piano. Garrett and Mason will be trouble for sure when they get older. Especially with Maddox as the ring leader.
The next bunch of pictures are just for fun. I love my 4 kids! They are always making me laugh. We went to a trampoline park with Jeremy's brother Chad and sister Alysha. The girls love that place. Sadie has been dad's big helper shoveling snow. She was out there for over an hour helping him out. Taylor is just getting smarter and smarter and loves school! She just never ceases to amaze me. Jeremy and I went to his company party. It's always fun to get dressed up and go out on a date with my love. But that same night Taylor and Sadie had a choir concert at school. Thank goodness for my mom and dad and Lindsey who came to the rescue to go and watch them. They did so good and still sing any chance they can.
We had Thanksgiving here in Utah this year with just our little family. Jeremy had his shoulder operated on and we decided to just stick around here. It was fun and low key but I did miss being with family. Especially for the day after Thanksgiving shopping. It's no fun shopping by myself.
Jeremy came home from hunting and shaved his massive beard into a massive mustache......It didn't stick around for long. As you can see from the pictures we are kind of obsessed with our little man G! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this kid. He also LOVE LOVE LOVES me :). For now he is my little mamma's boy.....until Jeremy can pick him up again then I believe I will no longer have the title of his fav :).
Courtney came to town and all of us sisters got together and went shopping. I love my sistas! We always have a good time together. Sadie has now lost 2 teeth and counting. The girl is losing teeth left and right. Jeremy and I got to go to a Jazz game together. That was fun. Tried to get on the jumbotron but it didn't happen. Taylor is such a good little helper to me with Garrett. I love when she's home. Raigen still hates cleaning up. Haha.
Jeremy tells the girls a story almost every night. It's about 4 super heroes who save the world. The girls can't get enough of these! Jeremy is so good at telling stories too. I'm glad he does that.
November 9 my sweet Raigen turned 4! Life is definitely more fun with her around. She is constantly doing and saying stuff and makes us laugh. She is one of a kind. I am so glad she's mine! We had a little party with friends. Her favorite present was a lalaloopsy named blanket.
Family pictures 2013! I am so lucky to have such talented friends. Cordie took these for us. Finding the right outfits stresses me out but I think they came together well.
Halloween was fun this year! I asked Taylor if I could dress up to come to her class and she told me no mom that's embarrassing. So I settled for a witches hat :).
Garrett continues to grow like crazy. The kid is huge. Raigen had a fun little fieldtrip to the Treehouse Museum. She was out of control and running everywhere like a crazy person. Haha. That's just her personality.
And last but not least Taylor and Sadie's school pictures! Aren't they ADORABLE. I can't believe how old they are getting. Both of them are such a blessing to have in our home.
Congratulations you made it to the end of the updates. I know there are probably things I missed but that's a pretty good wrap up of our lives. Now to be more dedicated to blogging so I don't have to do these long posts!
