random pictures

Here are some random pictures of the kids

The kids striking a pose. Taylor and Brianna were playing dress up and Ben was getting ready for bed.
Taylor was having a hard day this day. She kept getting into everything. She was in the bathroom trying to get eyeliner off her face. She was in big trouble that day. I just ouldnt resist taking a picture of her. Bryan says she looks like a zombie from the song Thriller.

Brianna, Ben, and taylor in thier halloween costums. This is the 3rd yr in a row that taylor was a princess. Maybe next yr she will be something else. Ben was Darth Vador and Brianna was a pirate. She took her hat off right before this picture was taken.


Thos is sometimes how we find Brianna. She has taken naps out of her shedule but sometimes at dinner she just gets to tired.






Snowman Cake

So I got this awsome holiday cookbook and it has some really good and fun recipes in it. The other day we had a ward dinner for the holidays and I signed up to bring a dessert. Here is what I brought.





It was so cute nobody wanted to cut into it. I had to do the 1st cut so that I didnt have to take it home.

My recent project



So I just recently started a new project. I found some wonderful hairblogs that have given me tons of new hair styles for Taylor and Brianna so when I got done with thier hair i decided that it was missing something. Bows. So I decided to make a bunch of flower bows. I have been working tons to make them and today I also made Korker hair bows, really easy. You place ribbon on a wooden dowl and then bake at 200 for 1 hr. I also found instructions where you can bake them at 275 for about 25 mins. Brianna is a little unsure about the bows but taylor loves them. She seems to keep picking out the biggest bows possible for her to wear, and some turned out huge. But all in all I had a lot of fun making them.

Ben is sick

Ben is sick today and that would normally be no big deal. But many of you know I do direct selling and I go out and do shows. Well I have a fundraiser for the dance studio Taylor goes to at 1:00. SO here I have Ben not feeling well and this fundraiser to do with no family here that can watch him for me. I am so trying to decide what to do. If he doesnt throw up I will probably take him and let him sleep in the corner. But still undecided.

Taylor

So I just wanted to tell this story about Taylor. While we were in Disneyland she had to go potty, so of course I took her and while she was in the stall she was singing I Am a Child of God at the top of her lungs. It was really funny. I did get some smile out of people who were walking in. What reminded me of this story is cause all day she has been singing primary songs, the did the program yesterday and she did such an awsome job. I look forward to the primary program every yr. You can always feel such a great spirit from these kids as they tell us what they have learned that yr.
