Chelsea's Homecoming Dance 2011

Chelsea had a fun time going to the Homecoming Dance with her date, Christian Dickerman.

It was a blind date lined up by Chelsea's friend, Emily, who is Christian's cousin. They went in a group of four couples: Justin Perfili and Alyssa Butler, Derek (?) and Katie (Christian's sister), Justin McBeth and Emily Owsley, and Christian and Chelsea.

Lydia got dressed up for the occasion. (Recognize the dress, Samantha?)

Anthony didn't; however he loves his girls!

Mother and Daughter

Lydia is a walker too!

I uploaded a video from one of Lydia's swimming lessons, as well as this one of her walking!

She's very mobile now!! :)

And this is what happens when you try to eat a sucker and suck your thumb at the same time.

A snowy day in Provo

Today, Jacob and I went out into the yard to play in the snow.  We had a snowball fight.  I creamed jacob with about a hundred snowballs.  He claims he hit me with sixty-one, which may be true.  Then we built a snowman and a snowdog.

Jacob and the snow man with the blue fez.

Meanwhile, a beautiful snowy sunset in the west.

A BIG one for Ben - and we got to celebrate it with him!
