starting 2010 right

So far this year...
...Lexi has become a chef!
this is her self portrait, ha ha...
Chef Lexi
Ready to get busy!


...Kyler became a boy scout!
He had been wanting to join since December when a friend told him about the fun activities.
Doesn't he look so handsome?



Handsome guy.


Lexi wanted a picture with her brother and baby (yes, she's wearing a crown. She wore it daily until it broke).





Of course, being goofy.






Princess Alexia and baby.



...we made homemade soft pretzels-thanks to my new bread machine! I have made cinnamon rolls, bread and pizza crust as well. Love it!



...Jared and Kyler went on their first boyscout outing, a "lock in" in an expo center. They had a blast!
Excuse the camera phone photos, Jared didn't want to take a camera for the sake of having to carry it around all evening and morning.

Happy Kyler.

Nerf shooting.



After shooting the bow and arrow.

They played movies all night long on this giant screen.


Kyler camping out.
They had tons of events that Jared didn't have a chance to snap a photo of. The boys came home with tons of stories to tell and big smiles.
...While they were gone, Lexi and I had a girls night. We watched Sleeping Beauty, painted our nails, ate hot fudge brownie sundaes and had facials.
Our toes, Lexi painted her own.

Facial time, again Lexi put hers on herself. Little miss independent.


...Kyler grew a mustache!
ha ha, he got this out of a quarter machine and wore it religiously for as long as the adhesive would allow.


Kyler and Lexi.


Dad and Kyler



Kyler and I. (yes, he wanted to take a photo with everyone! ha ha he was proud of his 'stache).

Lexi and I, she was holding the camera.


...my dad officially became a senior!
January 18 was my was dad's birthday. So we headed over to celebrate.
My dad and step mom.

Lexi was insistent upon helping grandma in the kitchen. It was too cute.
