Large Post... for me!

My friend Natalie challenged me to put a new post on this week. I've decided that I'm not very good at blogging. I like to read other peoples, but I don't feel like I have anything to say on my own blog. So, I'm going to babble about nothing just to say that I posted something. haha.

This is Brian hanging blinds at my moms house. I was camera happy so, here are a bunch of pictures that are pointless.

Brian doing the "Captain Morgan".
BrianActually posing for the camera as "Captain Morgan".
My 92 year old Grandma (Ninnie). She is almost all blind. She can see out of one corner of one eye. I hope I never get that way. Ugh. That would suck.

Me with Ninnie. I was showing her how a digital camera works. She was amazed with how far technology has come. She told me that when she was growing up they didn't even have cameras in most homes. We are so blessed now days. We all need to count our blessings.

I got the kids ready for bed and I went downstairs to check on some things and I came back up and Ellie was holding Trevor and reading him a book. I love these kind of moments. It makes being a mother worth while.On December 1st we have been married for 8 years. It has gone so quickly.For our anniversary we went to Olive Garden for dinner (mmmmm). Then we went and did some Christmas shopping. We had fun. We were acting like idiots (Well I was) and I went little camera crazy at the mall, but it was fun.
I was trying to act like the young Women in our ward. They all do this in all of their pictures. It's really funny.I got one of Brian being a nerd. He told me not to put this on here so, of course, i had to put it on. hehe. I'm such a mean wife. =o]

We decided this is what life looks like when you are on acid. It looks like fun, but you really feel like crap. Not that I know.

Us in front of the mall tree. Taking pictures by yourself looks like crap.

A lady walked by and watched me trying to take our picture and she offered to take one. It looks better than the one I took. Isn't Brian so cute?

Here is Ellie tonight. I thought it was ironic that she was wearing a BYU baseball t-shirt and a tiara. It totally fits her personality.

She wanted to pose by the flowers. She is not camera shy. As if you couldn't tell.
"Take a picture of me smelling the flowers" she said.

"Take lots pictures" She said. So I did.




I hope this was a good enough post for you Natalie. haha. Maybe I'll be better about updating the blog...maybe

Ellie is such a poser!!! I'm not sure if she gets that from you (loving to be goofy...which is a good thing, I'm too self-conscience) or from Brian (center of attention, haha, no offense Bri). But it sure is entertaining! And YES...her in that shirt (isn't that for Trev to grow into?) and tiara is too perfect!

More, give me more! I agree with Natalie about you posting more often. I love to hear what's happening in your cute family. Not that I can talk. I don't update as often as I would like to.

Hey, Happy 8 years! I loved the pictures and posts. Time has flown by and it's wonderful to see Ellie and Trevor getting along so well. What fun she was reading him a story!
