Elizabeth

I was in Target the other day and found matching swimming suits for Anna and Elizabeth that were too cute for me to pass up. I let the girls try them on later that day and for some reason for Lizzy this meant that she was going to go swimming right then so when it was time to take them off and get ready for be she threw a fit. I calmed her down by promising her that the next day she could go swimming in my bathtub and wear her swimming suit. First thing the next day as soon as she woke up she reminded me that she was going to so swimming. I told her to go get her suit and she picked a suit she wore last year, anyway she played in my tub for the longest time.



Her reaction to me draining the tub and telling her it was time to get out, even though the water was freezing.

New Calling

A couple weeks a ago I was released from the Primary Presidency and was asked to serve as the Young Women Personal Progress Leader. I love being in primary and I am going to miss it very much. I am also sure that I will love being in Young Womens and I am grateful for the opportunity. Yesterday the old primary presidency was asked to come to the primary room 5 minutes before church ended. We were surprised with paper hearts full of thank you notes from the children. The hearts were covering a pizza box which contained a huge heart cookie. The children also sang a song for us and then after the prayer several came up to give us hugs. Needless to say I sure did feel special and they brought a tear to my eyes. We have the biggest primary in the stake and each child is so special children. I love them all so very dearly!

Did I mention the cookie was delicious and my family enjoyed sharing it with me!

Luke's Birthday

Elizabeth helped blow out the candles and Luke was a good sport about it.

Opening my gift from my family. My friend came over and joined us for dinner and cake, he was equally as excited as I was.




Another great birthday. We sure do love Luke!

Sunday after Christmas

I like to have my kids match the Sunday after Christmas and I'm thrilled that my kids will still wear their matching clothes without any complaint! Aren't they adorable!

Christmas

We had a great Christmas and loved having the the kids home for two weeks. Christmas Eve day we went up to Bogus to ski and took turns watching Elizabeth in the lodge. Seth was kind enough to take Anna up on the Coach lift and while getting off the lift he didn't have a good hold of her and she took off down the mountain. I kept hollering at her to "pizza" and Seth and I both tried to catch her but she eventually stopped on her own and was sobbing. She agreed to go down a few more times and on her last run she had a smile on her face so wasn't traumatized by the event. Christmas morning we got up just before 7. Elizabeth wasn't too excited about the presents she received, the excitement for her was opening the presents and she didn't care whether the present was hers or belonged to someone else. Here are a few pictures, I need to be better about taking more pictures.


Legos are always sure to please these warner boys!


Now Aubry can keep her earrings and other jewelry organized.




Seth and Luke both got remote control helicopters and they are really good at flying them so far.


Anna's reaction to opening the one thing she wanted most, black boots.


This was pretty much her reaction to all her gifts!





Having fun playing the Wii
