End of an Era

Well, I have come to a decision.  On Wednsesday March 17th we will be taking Red and Brown to have their hair cut.  I have enjoyed trying new hairdo's on them, but alas, I am tired of the crying because of tangles.  I have to say I am looking forward to a summer of barettes and short hair.  Red's hair is long enough that we can donate to Locks of Love.  I really hope it grows back as long as it is now though.  People really love her long hair.  Especially her Grandma Anderson. 
Here are a few of the do's from this year.

This was our Valentine heart.  Her Pre-school teachers loved this one!

This is just before her Daddy Daughter date to see Disney on Ice. 

Curly hair.

Pictures of the Champions

Yellow with his participation medal.  He was pretty upset that he lost, but we are just proud that he tried. 

Blue and his participation medal.  He got over the losses very quickly.  He was just happy to get a medal.

Tough Love

Well, we attended our 1st wrestling tournament in Evanston, WY on the 6th of March.  It was a learning experience.  Koy lost his 2 matches and Zack had a bye (like a forfit) for his first match and then lost his next two matches.  They both did well.  My parents and sister with her two boys came and watched and so did Green's parents.  My mom cried when the boys did.  She said she'll never come to another wrestling match again.  Strange, because my dad and two brothers wrestled, my hubby and his dad did also.  I guess we are all just one big happy wrestling family.  :)  I will post pictures of the boys with their participation medals.  More fun coming up at the Coalville, UT tournament on March 18th.

Watch out World!!! WWF

So here are Blue and Yellow in their wrestling singlets and head gear.  As you can see they are two boys to be feared and admired by those in wrestling.  Our first tournament is March 6th in Evanston, WY.  Grandparents and cousins will be there to watch and support our two Brave Warriors!  I am thinking of taking a sedative that day so that I don't embarrass my kids or myself.  Who knew we'd be wrestling?  NOT me!!

Wrestling Season is Upon Us!!!

Well you guessed it!!  Green who wrestled all through high school and as a little boy has signed our two boys Yellow and Blue up for wrestling.  We have practices two times a week and then some tournaments in March.  HECTIC!!  Some of these kids have been wrestling since conception, my two have never even watched wrestling that I know of.  I guess we go and cheer and hope for the best.  Some people are so involved in this though.  I admit I am a little afraid of how I am going to react when some other little guy makes my kids cry.  I'll post some pictures and more news as it comes.  Fingers crossed that we win at least a couple of matches. (If not ALL)  GO BOYS!!!

Wedding Day

Well 12 years ago Green and Orange got married.  I still can't believe that it has been that long.  Here are a few pictures to show how young we looked and how very happy I was (I think he was too).  The pictures of me and my sister is because we were married 1 month and 1 day apart.  I have no idea how my mother and father did it, but we both had very nice receptions and the dresses of our dreams.  Our colors were purple with a little blue for Green.  We were married in the Bountiful Utah Temple on a very cold day.  We were the only wedding that day so we weren't rushed.  After the wedding we took our family and friends to Chuck - A - Rama.  We had a lot of people to feed.  Then off to the big city for our first night of marital bliss.  Green I love you so much more than I ever thought possible.  Thank you for 12 wonderful years.

Baptism Day

Today Yellow was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  We were and are so proud of him.  He had a lot of friends and family come to support him.  It is so nice to know that our family is loved.  We have an awesome extended family.  Yellow and Red had birthdays last month so it has been a very busy few months.  Eight and Four were the big birthdays last month.  This month is Orange's birthday.  She'll be turning 29 again!!
