Our family Pictures 2008

Our family
Emery Carolyn is now 6! She is in Kindergarten at Nob Hill Emementary. She is in Mrs. Hausske's class and is loving it! She says that Math is her favorite and she is good at it. She is doing really good at reading and is at the top of her class. We are so proud of her.
Lacey Anne just turned 5! She loves to play dress-up when asked what she wants to be when she grows up she said "I am going to be a princess." When I asked what princesses do for their job she said, "They get to go to lots of parties and do pretty stuff and get to wear lots of make-up, and wear lovely princess clothes." Lacey is a princess. We love her and love to hear her sing. She likes to make up all sorts of tunes and sing them with lots of feeling and verbratto.
Mason was just three minutes behind Lacey at birth, but is never lagging behind at home. He is so excited to be 5. He is my neat kid. His room is always clean and tidy. He is very good at making his own bed, and then will often go and help Lacey make hers. Mason likes to be the joker, loves to make Lilly laugh and sometimes gets himself into trouble by being too rambunctous. He is very good at art, drawing, coloring, painting, or clay, it has to be just right though or life is really tough for him.
We love Mason's blue eyes and those dimples have kept him out of trouble a time or two.
Lilly aka "Lilly Bug" is the cutest thing ever. We just can't get enoug of her. From her chubby edible cheeks to her big cheezer smile. We have loved every minute of Lilly in our lives. she is just about to start crawling. She goes backwards doing an army crawl and then gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth. She has not quite figure out how to get the arms to cooperate. she loves to eat any food given to her and she does great with anything we put in front of her. She is happy most of the time as long as someone is holding her. Lilly has daddy wrapped around his finger and she does not have to fuss for long before he comes to the rescue, the smile returns immediately (funny how that works).
This one is just a funny one of all of the kids. Stephanie my sis-in-law took the pictures,(Thank you, she does a great job) and actually they all turned out good. The ones of all four kids together were the most difficult.
Home is where you can be silent and still be heard. Where you can ask and find out who you are. Where people laugh with you about your self. Where sorrow is divided and joys multiplied. Where we share in love and grow..
