Lots, and I mean lots, of pictures!!



Okay, I have about a thousand pictures that I just want on here for my own sake. So, here are two hundred of them. Seriously, I'm not kidding. I may or may not put a caption with them, but I am not editing them or putting them in any order. Here goes!

Bear Lake, summer 2012























Bike rides!! Summer 2012



Alaina's first dance class. Now she is in gymnastics, but she loved dance, too.





Even fairies have to wash their hands.

First day of Kindergarten!!

Another school day. Aren't their uniforms cute?






Irelyn's first birthday. Not very good pictures.:( 
We had doughnuts, instead of a cake. Yummmyyy...



Stuffed giraffe named "jack-jack"





Family concert at the Symphony. They had an "instrument petting zoo" beforehand, where the kids got to play the instruments. Very cool. You might have to look hard to find our kids.



When Justin and Tara came up for the weekend. We went to Big Jud's and a haunted house. It was so fun!!
Alex made milkshakes for everyone out of ice and chocolate milk. The kids thought they were really good, at least!



Pumpkin carving



Alex painted all of our faces for Halloween night. He did a really good job. Here is Emme as a clown...
Tristan, as a scary guy. Actually, Tristan was dressed as Batman, so we told him that it was a secret, that underneath his mask his was really the Joker! He has never seen Batman, so he didn't really know who the Joker was, but he thought that was cool.

Doing Irelyn up as a kitty

And he did my face like a kitty, too. Here we all are, ready to go trick-or-treating!

Our first Trunk-or-Treat. We really loved it, which surprised us!! It was fun to see all the costumes and all the adults dressed up, too.

Mommy and Doc and Leto, with fake blood on his mouth


Visiting Haley in November with Phillip, Mommy and Irelyn

Haley, trying to get Dallin to pose for family pictures






Strange thing Alex made out of a costume and the vacuum. It looked quite real, and was a little scary.






Visiting Santa at the mall. Aren't my pictures just wonderful? :)

 Alaina, in The Nutcracker. She was a mouse and a princess. It was an amazing production and she had so much fun. And, she was pretty darn cute!!



After her last performance we gave her a rose. She couldn't get over it and kept saying, "Is it really just for me?!"



 



After the ward Christmas party with Santa







 
That's all folks!! For now, at least.

So many cute pictures! I don't know where to start!
First off, you will be sooo glad you posted these! It is just crazy seeing how much older your kids are looking.
Alaina's looks super duper cute in her school uniform and in her dance class and Nutcracker performance. Also, I love Irelyn in her long sweater with Emme. They look so cute! I loved seeing all the family get together pictures. Me miss the family!
Oh, and Alex is crazy good at making costumes and face painting! Love his milkshake idea, although it probably didn't taste THAT good, hahaha....

-Those were great catch-up pictures, Melinda! Especially the Thanksgiving and dance recital pictures. And the visit to Haley and Dallin's home, and the school uniform pictures.
They certainly provide a portion of your life as a family. I should do one like that, to post my extra pictures and events I haven't caught up on, which overwhelm me sometimes - like right now. :/
Thanks!
