family pics - az version

the amazing alys morris took some family pics for us with our new quincey girl, and they turned out so cute :) this one is so popular now i know, but you have to do it if you have the chance right! love my boys and their love for their little sis!

quincey's already giving me attitude! i'm sure this was the first of many eye rolls....

love her so much it hurts and these 3 little studs aren't too shabby either :)

she captured each one of their personalities so well, and i just love how they turned out!

love my crazy cute amazing little family :)

the randoms

time for another random post :) 

my first attempt at cooking a roast......epic fail :( thank goodness i know my carbs better than my meat and saved the day with these yummy parmesan garlic rolls!

a few weeks later though i went......and totally redeemed myself!!!! thanks for the roaster mama :)

we get down and dirty ballin it up around here!

i'm so in love with this learning how to spell/write stage of beckam's! he loves trying to sound things out and is always so proud when he thinks he's gotten it right :)

another perfect afternoon at the park with friends :)

yay for pomegranate season!!!! one of my favorite snacks :)

rain is like snow around here - the city shuts down! accidents, flooding, road closures.....i love it!

my boys could watch home videos all day every day - they never get old!

every time i saw something cute in a store while i was pregnant, dust told me.....just wait til after you have the baby and then you can go shopping. so i did! i had a little girls night by myself and did some shopping, and it was marvelous :)

the boys went to a birthday party where they had a live reptile show - can you say awesome!!! and gross!!!!

worst feeling ever.......when you go to climb into bed at the end of a long day and you realize you forgot to put your sheets back on the bed :(

seriously how am i so lucky to call these boys mine! love them!!!

bahama bucks baby! sno cones and freezer brain in december :)

i'm starting to run again, and this december view makes it so much easier!

haha holy bed head buddy! time for a hair cut i guess!

see that little person at the end of the sidewalk nearing the park that's across the busy street!?!?! jeter is a fast little man and was dead set on some park fun!!!

here jeter jeter!!! thankfully he didn't make, but i had to run to catch up! cute little stinker :)

 a perfect sunday afternoon walk at the lake feeding ducks in november with my awesome little fam - life really doesn't get much better than this!

the end.

blessing day

this little munchkin was blessed on sunday, december 8, 2013, and it was a great day :)

she got to wear a dress made by her great grandma hill - which is pretty special - and she had some pretty great guys in on the action too! we're missing randal cooper in this picture, but there's blair bentley, kevin mangum, grandpa moj, and eric lott :) dust did such a great job and gave her the most beautiful blessing, and i can't wait to see what our baby girl's future holds!

we took a few pics after church (thanks cara!), so here's our beautiful little girl on her special day!

the bonnet is a little big.......or a lot big! haha she didn't love it so much, but jeter loved getting all dressed up!

this family picture may go down as one of our all time favorites! haha we couldn't keep church clothes on everyone long enough for the family picture, but we're all there, and we're all looking, and we are so blessed and happy to be together - forever! love my people!

the moj's

grandma and grandpa moj came to visit!!! i know it doesn't look it in this picture, but we were VERY excited! one of the best things about living away from home are the visits you get and the fun you get to pack in to the few days you get with your fam, and we always love our time with the moj's :)

first order of business was watching a christmas show, and then we did a little christmas with them! the boys were so excited to give their presents to grandma and grandpa......

but they were even more excited to open some presents of their own of course!

frozen jammies - yay!!!!! love these 3 little frozen freaks :)

dust was surprised with his very own giant spoon and fork to hang in our kitchen, and he hung them with pride! like mother, like son :)

the boys were stoked to get their wii, and it was just a great start to the christmas season :)

while they were here, they got beckam a skateboard for his birthday, and we went to frost for the best gelato ever, and we also had a little date night at oregano's :) can you say pizzookie!?!?! yum!

we also went to the christmas lights at the mesa temple, and it was amazing! the boys loved the nativity, and it was really special being there together to celebrate this special time of year.

these boys love their grandma moj (jeter was ready for bed!), and it was so fun watching them snuggle up with her and wrestle and play with grandpa at the park, and we just loved being with them for a few days!

love you grandma and grandpa moj!
