Phone Pictures Splurg

Lily slammed her head into our piano one day while running like crazy. This doesn't even begin to show just how bad it was. It took about a month for the bruise to go away.

What can I say about this one? He's one stylin' babe!

He's much more dapper in this one.

I swear this isn't me, it's Tyty. Really.

I had a birthday, 29, and I hate my picture being taken, thus my head is turned the other way.

Dresses and skirts are always just about two inches too short, so I added a bit of a border this one.

Mmmmm, breakfast.

The bracelet Aunt Cori made for her. She loves it!

Saint Patty's Day

We all wore green and had some leprechaun fun while Daddy was out of town.

There is a story to this. Ethan knew it was me, Lauren was going crazy trying to combine her desire to believe in Larry the Leprechaun, with her deductive reasoning. In the end, she did a lot of detective work and figured out it was just Mommy playing tricks all day. She even figured out that the little signs in the food were written in Mom's handwriting, with the pen from the bowl in the kitchen, and the paper had come from the inside of an envelope. I totally thought I had her with the envelope paper because we don't usually use it. I had to tell Lily right away because she was terrified of a creepy little elf dude putting green stuff in her food, but I had fun with Lauren all day.Tyty just thought the green food was fun.

These were for the Relief Society birthday dinner. They asked me to make dessert and that the theme would be sparkly pink and zebra stripes. I think I nailed it with these.

Lauren "tried on" Grandma Audrey's gorgeous wedding dress when we were visiting great Grandma T's house.

We got to visit with some of our best friends, the Sturgis family, and made Ethan's birthday cake while we were at it. Spring Break was super fun this year because we got to go back home to Idaho for a whole 10 days! We missed Daddy though.

Mario and Luigi were ginger bread men, and I just stretched Luigi, haha! Obviously I didn't have any flesh colored fondant, so this is the best I could do with my mad artistic skills. They look more creepy than anything, lol!

The mushrooms were by far my favorite part of the cake.

Lily's new Easter dress. Daddy wasn't there, so we had to take a picture to show him what we found for her.

Cannery Row and milkshakes. Oh yeah.

I can't believe Lils is already in this outfit! She's getting huge!

Sisters, sometimes they really do love each. This is at Point Lobos.

I just now realized that Betty looks like she's trying to make a move on my husband. I just had him stand there so my mom could see just how big Betty was. With her boobs hanging out of her top most of the way.

Tyler takes his Scooby watching seriously.

Lauren is actually quite a bit taller than Lily, but Lily has a much more solid build than my tiny, skinny Lauren. They share a lot of the same clothes. And look at those beautiful smiles!

What Lily bought with her birthday money last year from Grandma and Grandpa Ross.

She got her way, and was a sheep in the nativity scene for church last Christmas. Lauren, behind, was an angel.

And finally, Ethan's favorite present from Grandma and Grandpa Ross.

Alright! I blogged, ya! It's been a while, and will probably be a while longer. I've got to finish my classes this week, thank goodness, and then I'm off to Girl's Camp for a week. I can't wait to get up to the Red Woods and just chill for a whole week. It's going to be sooo nice.
