Family Photos

So I wasn't going to post all the family pics but I had a few requests so here they are!

This is the funniest picture ever! The girls had a huge tantrum during the photo shoot and starting balling because I told them they don't get ice cream because they weren't cooperating and smiling for the camera. Hehehehe! I guess I'm mean!

If anyone likes the photography Hollie Hansen in my ward did them and she did great I love how much time she spent with me check out her photo blog at http://holliehansonphotog.blogspot.com/

My girls found their prince to dance with at the ball!

Stratton and Madison Dancing!

Lagoon!! Fun!!!

Some one nice enough to offer to take a picture of both of us! This in the only one.

They had so many pumpkins! Since we didn't have anyone to take our pics all our pics were done separate!

This is as close as I got and Brian got to wearing a halloween costume!

I had so much fun ramming into Brian on the bumper cars! Talk about whiplash!

On the Sky ride!

Brian won 2 tickets to frightmares at lagoon on the Radio. So we got a babysitter on Halloween and went at noon! I was worried we wouldn't get to ride many ride but I was wrong. The line were so short!!! I went on wicked 2 times in 20 minutes and on most all the rides the line was about 3 min long. some rides didn't even have a line at all, we had to sometimes wait on the ride till more people showed up. IT was seriously the best day ever to go to Lagoon. We went to one haunted house that they had only because they didn't open till 3 and we had to leave at 3:30. It was way scary I wanted to go to a few more but we just didn't have time. We had to get home to get the kiddos all ready for trick-or-treating! I;m such a chicken I was really scared in the haunted house and they really did a great job. I thought it would be cheesy and maybe Brian thought it was but I'm a Wuss!

Princess Cinderella and Bell

Dancing like little princesses!

Here are a few halloween Pics of the girls. When I got our Family pics done the first time the girl who did it had her camera broken and she didn't know it so none of the pics turned out. So to off set the inconvenience of having to re shoot our pictures she offered to do a free Halloween session. I thought that was a really good deal!

Okay I have been really bad about updating my blog so I have to confess I have been busy creating a digital scrap book with heritage makers. Its my new addiction and I love it. This book of Madison it one of my projects I am working on. Its a year book of madison's 3rd year. I just completed Mckenzies 3rd year book so I will try to figure out how to add the link so people can view it. When I am done with a book the company prints it and sends it to me. I love it! This link below is Madison's book I am working on Check it out!

Vacation

Our fun boating adventure.. I got both the kids on the tube. They had a blast. On the last boat ride, Madi and I actually got thrown off the tube, and when Brian went he almost broke his nose. He got a bloody mouth and a black eye. It was a lot of fun!

Brian Tubing

Little Cousins Madi was fighting to keep her place in the middle.

Playing games.

For the kids, this is what the party is all about! CAKE! Cute little birds near our event. Brian and I where in a couple horse shoe contest. We made it through the first round but then was defeated with my dads team. Errrr!!

I caught a little fish with my girls princess fishing pole. heheheh, I let it go after the picture.

Brian spent most the the time trying to catch a big fish with the girls Princess pole, he looked so masculine with that pole, hehehe.

I just love this pic of Madi

Brian was the pro fire maker. He also prepared these yummy foil Dinners. After we roasted marshmallows and made smores.

When we drove through Chicago we met up with my Uncle and Aunt Miller and of coarse Jeff, at the hard rock cafe. It was Crazy in down town Chicago.

In front of Michigan Lake

This is the picture of Crazy horse near Mount Rushmore. If you can see behind the statue is a mountain were they have started to make the mountain like this statue by Kenzie. It will be amazing when completed.
We had a great opportunity to go to my family reunion on my dads side. every 4-5 years they have one at ford lake in Michigan. Last reunion my fam didn't go but I'm so glad I went this year it was such a blast to see all my Aunts, Uncles and cousins. Mckenzie and Madison really had a great time on the lake. I think it helped them with their bug fobia. We stayed on the lake for 7 days it was so relaxing and then after we headed the Wisconsin to visit the other half of my family on my moms side. Brian also payed another visit to Marquette which is one of his top schools he would like to go for Dental school.
