My Mom and Courtney

Our anniversary

On our wedding anniversary while Lee and I were out celebrating, Jessica came over and decorated our room, it was so cute! What a surprise it was for me, Lee was in on it. I was wondering why we stayed out extra late.

She is such a thoughtful daughter. She even put rose petals all over the floor with candles everywhere!

My very first lemon Mer.... pie (however you spell it)

I was very proud of this pie that I made, it tasted good too!

La La

I have always loved this picture I took of Courtney. I bought her this Cinderella dress before she turned 2 and she is still wearing it. It was dragging the floor back then and now it is about 8 inches too short. She was running away from me so I couldn't take her picture, she ran into a dead end, turned around and I snapped the picture. ( she calls Cinderella La La)

Spann Reunion

Lee and his only brother. Yes they are very different!

In August we went to Wyoming for the Spann reunion. It was at a campground, this beautiful river runs through the campground. Lee's dad turned 90 during the reunion. He loved his ATV ride.

I need a pedicure, this is what my feet look like! (click on site above)

Our ward pig

Our ward has a pig we are raising and we are also growing a garden. Mr piggy will be eaten at our ward Christmas party. He doesn't have a name so hopefully the kids won't get too attached.

Cousins

Carlee and Kingston hanging out on the couch, the youngest cousins of our bunch.

Dress up time

More dressing up. No dress up clothes at the cabin so Audrey had to make due with her blanket.

Just call me Rachael Ray

Courtney loves to make biscuits when she comes over. One day it was so funny, after we put the biscuits in the oven I left the kitchen to do something and I told her she could play with the dough. She ran in and said, "Grandma come and see what I made" she had added some cheerios and orange juice to her dough in the bowl and stirred it up. I said, that really looks good and asked her, are you going to eat that? She said, no lets save it for Grandpa.

I decided that I wanted to make some homemade pop tarts, they were pretty good and cute too! I think I need some new cookie sheets , they are looking pretty rank! My friend Nora and I decided to have some fun in the kitchen and that we did!! Her grandson really liked them.

Sleeping Beauty

Courtney said, "Grandma I am sleeping beauty". Her and Audrey love to dress up.

Jessica sent me this while they were in Chicago. I am so happy they got to move back to Phoenix! Can you imagine being 1800 miles away from this precious baby.

Great Grandma and Grandpa Hall came to visit from Memphis. We sure enjoyed their visit. They were very proud of their 4 Great Granddaughters.
