New Family Pics

 

We got family photos done  the end of Oct. They turned out great! It has been a year… so the photos are a great reminder that we are surviving it and becoming a better family!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And like most family pictures at least someone isn’t looking!

Hula Girls

 

Happy Halloween!

The girls were hula dancers this year! Tessa did great going door to door until we finally let her have candy then she became less productive. Mallory had her first sucker and really enjoyed it. We also went to visit grandma and Tessa got to give candy to some of the other residences! It was a fun evening.

This cutie is 1 year old!

We don’t know where the time went!

Mallory loved her Rainbow cake!

***I have to brag just a little i thought i did a great job

making her cake!***

Disneyland

I really should have posted these before but my days go by so fast and i just never got is done. Anyway, we had an amazing time in Disneyland. Tessa is saving her money so we can go back. We did the whole park in 2 days and that was from opening to close each day. Then we did San Diego…the girls loved the ocean but it was cloudy and cold the whole time we were there. Hopefully, next time the sun will come out!

Tessa and Mallory loved the carousel.

Tessa loved anything fast and not dark. We rode the roller-coaster in ToonTown about 6 times.  My parents and my Grandma came with us.

We waited 45 minutes to see Princesses and it was worth it to see Tessa’s face when she saw Belle.

It was cold on the beach but Tessa wouldn’t wear anything but her swimsuit. Mallory loved the shovel we brought to dig with and the water once she discovered it.

Tessa with a mermaid tail!

We also stopped at the San Diego Temple, so beautiful, and walked around. And went to the USS Midway Battleship…Tessa didn’t really like it but Mark and I thought it was neat!

We can’t wait to do it again!!!!

Someone loved….

her 1st day at Preschool!

There are about 8 kids in her class. Her daddy and I are super excited for her. The teacher sent home a schedule for us and Tessa will be doing some really fun things including a Halloween Party with costumes!

**The card she is holding says “ I'm a Preschooler.”  I have one for every grade level.**

Starting the School Year!

  Tessa starting ballet class this           month and LOVES it!  She is attended a traveling  preschool one day a week that my aunt started and regular preschool Tues. and Thurs. starting in Sept. Tessa loves all the activities and asks every day “where are we going today?”

 

Crazy hair-dos in the tub after playing in the water outside.

 

 

This cute girl is 10 months! I can’t believe it. She is waking everywhere!!! Runs sometimes. Loves her sister and loves to play. Is getting better at signing bottle, more and done. Gabbers all the time and we are working on dada, momma,  and Tessa. But she will probably say Annie first because that’s the dog and she loves the dog!

 

 

Mark took Tessa to her first ASU football game. They rode the train to the game and Tessa loved it. She also loved seeing Sparky!
