A Visit from Someone Special

By -
A couple of weeks ago, Miguel and Mikayla got to meet their half sister Payton, who is now 8 months old. She is a real doll and as you can see my older kids fell for her instantly.

Love pats for Colton.

She really liked Tayler.

About once a year we get to visit with the kids Aunt Judy and Uncle Mel. Their cousin Amanda and Aunt Theresa came this time too. It really has been a great blessing in our lives to have stayed in touch with part of Miguel and Mikayla's family, it means so much to them.

Amanda and Mimi.

Wow! I didn't realize they had other family around and that were still in touch with them. That's pretty amazing and you're great to let them be a part of their lives! (You're great anyway...)

As I've written before Mimi is fascinated by little creatures in nature. Introducing her latest find, a snail she named "Slimey". She made him a cozy little home out of a canning jar from our cabinet. It comes fully furnished with a bed made of grass and lettuce leaves. She couldn't resist sharing him with her best friend Jaden and his little brother Teagan.

It has been a really long time since we've had our family pictures taken (7 years to be exact). So with Caleb about to leave for the mission field we decided these pictures were a must. We had them taken at a local photo shop and I must say I really love how they turned out. Here are a few of our favorites! Above are Caleb, Me, Matt, Tayler, Colton, Miguel and Mikayla are below.

Fashionable Fan

Hot off the runways of Paris, it's the most stylish trend to wear to your sons football games (or any outdoor sport of your choice). My Dad thought this would be a great idea when I mentioned to him how cold I get when I watch the games. After seeking many thrift shops far and wide he finally showed up with this little beauty which came in an extra-large and was complete with it's own official patch (which means I'm apparently now part of the Scorpion's snowmobile gang). I must admit I felt a little like a grown up version of the kid whose Mom dresses him all up for winter in "A Christmas Story". Wearing this, you may be your kids number one fan, but they'll pretend not to know the crazy lady in the snowsuit hooping and hollering from the sidelines.
