Happy New Year!

I hope 2012 is good to you! We love you all!

Catch up.... Again!

As you can tell by the amazing number of posts today I have a few minutes for the first time in months to sit and let you all know what is going on! There has been a lot that doesn't fit into other categories! Here are a few things that have happened in the last few months that you may not know about.

The kids had school pictures taken. So cute!

Sami participated in the Turkey Tango at school and won 2nd place in all of 3rd grade!

We had a pep rally at the school for UNLV's Homecoming game.

We went on a field trip with Sami's class!

Sami and her teacher Miss Altman. They are so cute together! Miss Altman LOVES Sami! She even tries to claim 50% of her! It is so sweet! 

We took the kids to Red Rock and Spring Mountain Ranch for the first time!

We celebrated Danielle's wedding...

We went on ANOTHER field trip! This time to Gilcrease Orchard

Don't worry Luke has some field trips planned for Spring.

We had a fun Halloween! Unfortunately we have no good pictures of the kids in their costumes! This year Luke was a robber and Sami was Rapunzel.

Now you are all caught up! What a crazy fall it has been! I will try harder to keep you up to date! I hope that 2011 has been great for everyone! Here is to 2012!!

Catch up

Oh my! Since we started school I have not been good about posting! Here is my attempt to catch you all up on what has been going on.....

We started school! Here are our "First Day of School" pictures:

Joerg ran the Disneyland half marathon... again. He beat his time from last year by 3 minutes. Pretty impressive considering he only ran 9 times before the race! Our passports expired so we went to a couple of museums with Grandpa. It was so much fun!

The kids played dress up at one museum!

Although Sami was a little shy about her outfit...

I had no hesitation in embarrassing the kids with my rendition of a Native American by the Christmas tree! It was hilarious!

Luke held true to his normal form....

We went for a short bus ride...

Joerg looks a little too happy to be driving the bus!

Then the kids flexed their muscles!

They both impressed us with their upper body strength!

When we got home it was time for Michael & Becky's "I do's"

Obviously we all had a blast!

 Along with the wedding came a visit from my brother and niece! Our family had so much fun together for the short while that we had!

I asked Adam if I could post pictures of Andrew and Seth and he asked that I don't, so even though not shown the boys were there too and we all had so much fun! All 5 of the cousins really enjoyed spending time together and we hope that Ashby can come visit soon so that we can have fun and play with her too.

Now life is going to be calm for a little while! Well... as calm as life gets in this stage! I hope that this finds you all well! We love you all!
