A New Year

My New Years Resolution this year was to start blogging again, well one of my resolutions. I had a slow start, but it's better late then never. I felt bad about not keeping up on my blogging when I would see Elijah looking at my old posts. I know he enjoys looking at pictures that I post. I don't even know if people really blog as much these day, but this is my journal and I want to document the events of my families life. What I'm so happy to say is....."Finally I'm not on the bottom of Kelly's list anymore!!"
So much has happened over the past couple of years, but there's not enough time so I'll just highlight some from 2011. I think the biggest event last year was Sariah starting Kindergarten. My baby girl is out of the house. I was sad, but happy at the same time. She has such a sweet spirit about her. Of course all my kids do.
Off to school
Her teachers name is Mrs. Luna and she is the sweetest lady. Sariah was the first in her class to receive the Academic Award.
Halloween was right around the corner after the start of the new school year. Sariah decided to be Spider Woman after saying all year that she was going to be Cinderella.

Elijah was really Mickey Mouse for Halloween. He just didn't want to wear it to school. This was the very first timeI have ever sewn shorts and they turned out pretty good if I do say so myself.

Look at how they've grown.

Sariah (5)
Noah (weeks before turning 3)
I love my family!
There is so much more that I need to post, but I'm pacing myself. For one, Noah turned 3 on Jan 2nd. I have pictures on the camera that need to be uploaded from that and will do so soon.

Zoey, Cake, Beach & more

A huge smile to start off her birthday.




Aside from her many gifts, this one out did them all.
Meet the newest member of the family.....Zoey. She's a chi/ter mix and is absolutely adorable.




Zoey is mainly for Elijah, we just happened to get her on Sariah's b'day.





How about some cake to start off a picnic at the beach.

Sand Angle?

Uncle Aaron, I hope he rubbed sun block on his head.




Noah was a little sick so he enjoyed being held all day.



What's a picnic without some watermelon?

Baptism


Today, August 1st, Elijah entered into the Holy Waters of baptism and made a covenant with his Heavenly Father. I am so blessed to have him as a son. He is such a good example to us and I am pleased with the choices he's made. He has such a sweet spirit. Elijah thinks the coolest part is joining cub scouts, but he's also looking forward to serving a mission someday.
