HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVERY!

My baby is 3 years old. I can't believe it! Avery turned 3 on Dec. 29th. It is sad that she is growing up so fast, but she is so stinkin' cute! She is definetely a challenge, but she has a lot of personality that is hard to resist!

On Avery's birthday Jason and I took her toBuild a Bear. She LOVES stuffed animals. She had a lot of fun. Jason was able to finally snap a picture of her smiling and looking at the camera.

We had a family birthday party for Avery and all her cousins and grandparents came over.


CHRISTMAS 2008

Merry Christmas!!! Santa definetly found our house! We had a great Christmas. The kids all got what they wanted and plus some. They were spoiled by everybody! We had a good time visiting with all our family once we made it through all the snow( It only took Jason a couple hours to shovel out our driveway, so we could pull out!). We love and appreciate all of our family and all they do for us.

Avery got this huge barbie house. She loved it and was so excited. (sorry about the sideways pic. I forgot to change it before I uploaded it and I didn't want to go back and do it!!!)

The boys got all kinds of fun toys. Guitar Hero was for the family and dad loves it just as much as the boys. Dad also likes Austin's Magnext I Coaster he got!!I

Family Pictures

My mom decided she wanted family pictures done over Thanksgiving weekend while both of my brothers were down from Logan and Roy. We went to Wheeler Farm and a lady my mom knows took our pictures. I had a feeling it would be difficult with my 2 almost 3 year old daughter, and I was right. She was not cooperative at all! These are a few pictures that turned out pretty good with her in them. She did not want to do anything the lady wanted her to and she would keep walking in and out of the picture while we all just stood there and kept smiling and smiling while the lady kept clicking away while waiting for the She-Devil (as Jason would call her) to decide when she wanted to walk in the picture and actually kind of look at the camera. It was a ton of fun to say the least!!!! (Love HER!! She definitely has brought alot of excitement and drama to our life!).

Here is my whole side of the family. Dad and Mom, Ryan & Cher with there 3 boys,
