Aubrey Lyn






Aubrey was really happy today, so we grabbed the camera and took a couple of pictures of her. She is such a good baby, and she is so adored by her sister Brooklyn and by us. The top video was taken when Aubrey was about 6 1/2 weeks old, and the bottom video was at about 5 weeks old.

A Night Out

Tonight we had a ward social, where we got to hang out with our best friends - Rick and Jenny Runyan. We are so lucky to have such good friends with a daughter that Brooklyn can play with too. They are really cute together and love hanging out. After the ward social, we went bowling and had a really fun night!







All the girls

It is a rare event when all three of us are looking at the camera in a photo, so that's partly why I love this picture so much. We were just having a relaxing night at home, when Luke grabbed the camera and took some of the best pictures of "his girls" yet.






Just an ordinary day

Today was just an ordinary day - morning chores, bathtime, naptime, make cookies, and play all day.








Playing in the Snow

Brooklyn was delighted when she was able to go play in the snow while Luke was shoveling the sidewalk. She loves being outside - even if it's below 0! By the time we went back inside, she was covered in snow from head to foot, her nose was dripping like a faucet, her lips were turning blue, she could barely move her legs and she still cried when we made her come inside!!


Material Girl




Brooklyn found my lipstick in the diaper bag and knew exactly what to do with it. She loves playing with my makeup and knows exactly what each thing is used for! We are in for some very long pre-teen years with this one!!

Rexburg Temple Open House

We were able to attend the Rexburg Temple open house recently and we were amazed at how beautiful it is. There was such a wonderful spirit in the temple, and we know that it will bless this city tremendously. Brooklyn also loved the temple, especially the Celestial Room, in which she could not stop staring at the amazing chandelier. Afterward, we were able to take some pictures outside, and Brooklyn had a chance to play in the snow. She loves sticking her face down in it, and running as fast as she can on the icy sidewalks. As much as she loves, Aubrey hates it! We both were so miserable we could barely stand it!

On my first day of school this semester, I came home to this. Luke had given Brooklyn a fruit icecream dessert, and failed to realize that that could create a small problem. This is why dads shouldn't be moms.






Brooklyn and Aubrey got to meet Santa at the bank this year, and suprisingly, they both loved him! We thought Brooklyn might have a minor freak-out episode, but apparently she loves anyone who gives her candy, no matter how scary they look!
