Snow Trip to Payson

Yea! We are on our way to Payson to find some snow!

Oh brother what have they gotten me into now??!!

Yippie that looks like fun!

Kevin and I loved packing around and taking pictures

of Adell in her little bear snow suit!

And Adell liked sucking on her gloves!

I don't know why little baby snow outfits

always come with ears but man are they cute!

Look Adell that is snow!!

We even found a hill to sled down. Well Kind of.

This park had been well used by the time we got there

but it was perfect for our little snow bear.

Woman's Best Friend

Argh! Attack of the ferocious beastie!!!

False alarm folks. It's just Oliver.

Some say a dog is man's best friend but I say a dog is woman's best friend.

More correctly, Adell's best friend!

Although the friendship does have it's obvious disadvantages...

they find a way to love each other anyway!

Tongue Tastic!

I don't know if every baby does this but Adell went through a faze where she stuck out her tongue constantly. She wasn't reaching to stick something in her mouth to taste it she was just sticking it out like it was the coolest discovery she had ever made and she was going to show everyone.

Hay look at my tongue isn't it cool!

It is so slippy and slimy!

uh oh where did it go???

There it is! See isn't it so cool!!

Nah nah nah nah nah my tongue is cooler than your tongue!

Dog Pile On Adell

Oh look a pile of animals.

Oh look the pile of animals is moving!

Oh it's Adell!!

Kevin definitely has his own ideas of how to entertain Adell. :)

Adell's First Christmas!!!

The Russell's did warn us about those darn zombies. It doesn't look like we escaped in time.

A little silly string in the stocking makes for a fun and messy Christmas morning.

Adell sits by her stocking wondering what the heck are those two lunatics up to now. The blue "care bear" was made from our friend Arleen Lundgren. She crocheted the whole thing. It is so cool! It is actually the only gift that was new. Everything else I just brought out to make it look fun. Adell is only four months old here so all she really liked was the wrapping paper.

Oh yes and I guess she likes or Loves Santa too!!

I think someone else loves Santa!!

Sorry Adell we couldn't help it. You make the perfect present.

We did all our Christmas photos with our friends the Malicdems. They are the reason our family actually got cute pictures with their Christmas cards and not lumps of coal.

This is (from left to right) Gwen, Nora, and Adell. Nora and Gwen are the Malicdem's kids. Nora is just four days old here. We had a lot of fun taking Christmas pictures with them.
