Catching up on the blog...

We haven't been up to too much the last couple of months, but here are lots of random pictures.

Best buddies:)

 Sam made a hat out of paper.

 My brothers and I went to the temple together. 

 It has snowed a stuck a few times this year so far I guess. The kids sure love playing in it.

 My silly kiddos...

 Ty came out to play.

 Here is a picture of my new niece. She was born at the beginning of January.She is so stinkin' cute as you can see. Libby (short for Liberty) Jane Watkins. She's a doll.

 Morgan and I like to take the kids out for "surprises". They LOVE surprises! On the 1st Saturday of every month, at Home Depot, they have this free children's workshop where tons of kids come and build, paint and/or create. We did that at the beginning of this month and we will be making it a tradition now. 

 My parents came for a visit for Libby's baby blessing. I have been really bad at getting out my real camera so here are some pics from my phone.

When my parents were here we visited the pet store where Noel held her first rat! Yugghgk!

 We also went bowling. Sam likes to bowl with his face:) He is too silly!

 I love my little poser.

 Sam helped Grandma make homemade lemonade. 

 My parents brought a couple of large boxes for the kids to play in and Morgan cut one up to look like a house. The kids loved playing in it.

My parents and my brothers and I went to the temple together one of the evenings. That was a great night.

My sister Leslie and Jason and their kids came into town as well for Libby's baby blessing and they got a puppy while they were here. It was too cute for words. The kids loved petting him and holding him. His name is "Quatro" because of his 4 spots.

 Chris and Kareena were getting rid of their couch so we took it off their hands. It's bigger and way more comfy, and the kids can fit underneath this one:)

 We've had some sunny, warmer days so it's been nice getting some fresh air and sitting in the sun.

 One of our recent surprises this last weekend was we took the kids to feed the ducks here in Springville. That was a blast!

 Does anyone recognize this house?!!?! Yup, this is Grandma and Grandpa Watkins old home! So, this is my dad's late parents home. Every year when I was little we would take a trip to Utah for a family reunion and stay here at my grandparents home. There are lots of good memories here. I just happened to be in the neighborhood this last week and decided to take a quick pic. 

 The other day we got home from Noel's dance class and grocery shopping and the kids had fallen asleep in the car. I brought Sam in and he shoved his face in the corner of the couch and fell back asleep and Noel curled up on the couch on the opposite end. I love my kiddos:)
