Bangel Bracelet

It is so nice that Baby Daniel is old enough now that I can get out my beads with out constantly telling him "no no don't touch."  I made these bracelets out of seed beads and faceted rondelles.  Mom loved them so much that she ordered a few from me too.  You start with the peyote stitch to make the inside band.  Then you lace around the rondelles holding them in the center.

Mommy Playing With the New Camera

I got a new digital camera at a yard sale. Which means I can blog again.  So exciting!  We are now settled in Thatcher.  Summer break has started.  On Wednesdays Andy takes the kids to the pool.  Thursday is library day.  Friday is movie day.  A Lot of fun, free stuff to do this summer.  Andy's job is going really well too.

Who Needs Pants?

Baby Daniel is going through a "I take off my pants every chance I get faze"  It's kind of funny except  when he starts crying at night because he's cold.

Andy Graduates/Christmas

Andy graduated from CODA training academy.  He now lives in Safford.  We will be moving up there hopefully in May.  That made Christmas a little difficult because he can only visit Wednesday morning to Friday night.  So we had a family Christmas with Andy on Thursday then Santa came on Saturday.  The children loved it.  Tanner got an electronic hamster with an air plain accessory and a jacket.  Elwyn got a Preciouse Places Castle with the princesses and a dress.  Daniel got a slide and two pairs of shoes.  It was a great Christmas. More than we expected.  My Mom got me a pack of socks which was good because I really needed them.  I am sorry I don't have very many pictures.  I recorded most of it with my video camera and I cannot get it onto the computer.

Halloween

I made Tanner's costume.  He is a frog if you can't tell.  Elwyn is a pink cat and Daniel is a bee.  We went to your wards trunk or treat.  The kids loved it.

Newest Family Member

We got a little kitten for the children.  And Andy really really wanted one.  So when we found a mouse in the bathroom I gave in and we got this new little boy.

Train

I just thought this was a fun picture.
