It's been a "little" busy at our house trying to get a house ready for listing and showings, thus the long hiatus from blogging posts. But we are thrilled that we get a chance to move back out West closer to family. We will really miss our beloved Raleigh and friends!
Early December Dylan earned his Wolf. I think I should get a badge too! He is an amazing kid.
Nini and Poger (Connor's parents) came to see us for Christmas- What a treat. Here we are acting out the nativity... Don't you have a princess on a red Donkey in your Nativity?
We enjoyed a variety of beverages for Christmas Dinner...
We enjoyed winter time swimming at Nini and Poger's Hotel.
Ashlyn just went back to school two days ago. She has been tracked out since before Christmas. About 6 months ago she asked to get her ears pierced. I had her earn it but when time came, she decided she wasn't ready. She announced she was now ready. I was expected the worst (she can be a drama queen) but she didn't even blink an eye! It's amazing how cleaning her ears causes her more "pain" than did the actual piercing!
Last week Raleigh had it's first "snow" storm. Of course they were ready to shut the whole city down. (We will really miss the South!) The ice was melted by noon but we did go out and play in what we could. The trampoline was like a ice skating rink.
Of course Kamryn just wanted to eat it all (she loves ice).
Ashlyn and Corbin got to go to a really cool birthday party where they were "instructed" how to paint a painting. But I am sure you can imagine how focused a room of mostly 4 year olds can be.
Corbin is a swift painter. Good and Done...
However, each day I learn more and more about Ashlyn's personality and how detailed oriented she can be, how much she desires to follow the rules. I'm scared, cause I guess she is turning out more like me than I thought (except she doesn't get her sassiness from me, of course!) She is very proud...

What beautiful owl paintings! I hope you are going to frame them! I can't wait til I get to see the kids and their projects in person!!!!!
Haha--love the princess on the donkey. And I'm impressed with Corbin's (and Ashlyn's) owls!
So maybe I missed it - but where are you guys moving to?? We just moved to Denver. Ugh - having just gone through the whole process I have much sympathy for you. I couldn't imagine being pregnant and moving!! Hang in there!
WHAT??? That is awesome!! I've forgotten you were from Colorado! NO WAY. It is crazy how many people from our old little cambridge ward have landed here. We are in Littleton. We looked in several areas but we're really excited about where we end up. Do you know where you are moving yet?
Ashlyn is an amazing artist! Well, Dylan could marry Kenley, (their age difference won't be so noticeable in a few years) and then we can have equally beautiful grandkids:)Or Maybe P could marry your new baby girl:) They are closer in age!
