Corey and I spent New Year's Eve at the Stake Youth Dance. Good times.....

oh wait this pic is even better...Carlie & mommy love taking pics of themselves and making crazy faces!

Man we are good looking!

Trick or Treat?

We had so much fun this year with our theme. Carlie was beyond excited about Halloween. I could not believe that she picked to be Dorthy - I couldn't believe how lucky I was. My dream had come true to be the Wicked Witch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also need to give a shout out to my fab mother in law Diane for making my witch costume! Thank YOU!!

Our Super Mellow 4th

We had a super mellow 4th of July this year. We hung out at grandma's in the backyard and ate some yummy food. Then we went over to our house and put the kids to bed - Carlie O had the BIGGEST - NASTIEST melt down EVER!! Good thing we skipped the fireworks this year. Then Anne Marie & Mom/Diane came over and we played some games. It was super mellow, but just right. I forgot to take pics of my kids in their patriotic get-up, but here are a few of us in the backyard.

Here Are Some Pictures of Our Super Fabulous Family

Isn't Corey a pretty princess?
