It has been so wonderful to live close to my parents for the last year and a half. On January 15 they started their second mission as senior missionaries. They are serving in the St. George Temple visitors' center and really loving it so far. We all really miss them, but we're glad we got to spend some good quality time with them before they left.
On January 19 our little Leslie turned 3 years old. I took the girls over to the Lakeshore Learning store to do a free craft. This time they made a melted snowman...the birthday girl LOVED it!
Little Leslie on her 3rd birthday!
Leslie and her gifts...including her new favorite toy Polly Penguin. Thanks to that toy, a princess potty training book, and lots of candy, Leslie is officially potty trained!!
Leslie insisted on having chocolate cake with pink rainbow chip frosting (just like we had at Emily's birthday last year). She really loves her big sister!
Leslie with her cute Leslie doll from Grandma Burr.
February 9th marked 100 days of Kindergarten for Emily and as she said it was "the very best day of school ever!" The balloons say: 100 days FLEW by!
When Greg worked at Brick Oven in Provo I LOVED their Valentine's Day sugar cookies...and now it is a tradition to make them every year at our house. We take cookie decorating very seriously...
Emily and Leslie ready to take some cookies to our neighbors. We made sure to save some for ourselves too!
My 3 little valentines: Emily, Abby, and Leslie. Greg is a little camera shy...
We even bought a heart shaped pizza for dinner. The girls thought that was pretty cool, especially since it looks like a broken heart or something. Our kids don't like pepperoni so...
When Emily comes home at lunch time, we love to do crafts. I bought the girls smelly markers and those were very popular and MESSY!!
We also made little characters on popsicle sticks. The girls played with them for days!
Our awesome snow globes. They ended up so cute, I had to hang them up!
The girls also like to make a lot of noise on the piano. At least they are having fun!
This winter has been interesting with not a ton of snow or cold days. We've done a lot of bike rides and trips to the park. The girls don't seem to mind!
Emily loves pretending the playground is her castle. We play the same game every time we go. I make a really good Mother Gothel.
There's never a dull moment with these three. We sure love our girls!
