Asher's 3rd Birthday

Asher just had his 3rd birthday. I can't believe my baby is three. He is such a joy to have in our family. He never stops talking and is so sweet to his brothers and sister and has a great sense of humor.

He wanted to go to Chuck E. Cheese so we went as a family.

 

 


Then on his birthday family came to our house for cupcakes and pin the backpack on Diego game.

Alicia's 5th Birthday

Alicia had her 5th birthday this month. We decided she could get her ears pierced when she turned five. Alicia was so excited and determined she was going to do it. I took her the day before her birthday. I tried to talk her out of it there but she wanted it done. I was very nervous. She cried but it only lasted a minute.

Here is her before ...

 


and after she gets her ears pierced.

 


We went to Chick Filet for dinner with family on her birthday. Alicia wasn't feeling good but was excited anyway.

I took Alicia and Asher with their friends, Brooke and Payton, to Tangled. We went for Alicia's birthday. It was cute.

 

 


And today Alicia had her friend birthday party. It was a barbie party. The girls decorated a purse, played pass the purse, Puzzler Barbie, What is Barbie missing, and made bracelets. It was a lot of fun.

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. We enjoyed spending time thinking of Jesus' birth and being with family. I also loved buying my kids presents that I knew they would love.

 


Gabe and Sterling both got a Nintendo DSI and they thought they were dreaming.

 


Alicia got a Barbie Doll house that was bigger then her.

 


Asher got some Geo trax trains and spent hours playing with them.

Nativity

Sterling (Joseph) and Maddi (Mary) were serious.

 



Alicia (angel) played the part very well and Mckay (shepherd #1) and Asher (shepherd #2) were enjoying the sheep.

 


What an adorable shepherd Asher is!

Cooper (shepherd #3) was very distracted by this guitar.

 


Cameron and Gabe (Wise Men) were helpful with the younger kids.
