Family Pictures 2010

My lovely neighbor Kirstine took these pics for us this fall, and she did a MAH-velous job, we think! We had a lot of fun being silly and crazy. We went to an awesome park in Cedar Hills for these, and just loved the scenery up there. Muchas Gracias Kirstine!

Squeebs

 My little monkeys

 This one is all about the hair (and the tiny foots).

 This one, to me, the mom, is perfection!

 Cute as pie!

 My fave family pic

 Somehow she got all growed up fast this year. Sniff.

 

WE are CUTE! Hee hee. I don't remember the last time (if ever) we had a decent picture of the two of us. Hurray!

 Ah......I just love this guy. He's such a goof.

 I just don't know what to say about this one, but it makes me chuckle.



Crazy Dress Up fun with cousin Faith and Uncle Tait - Nov 2010

Spencer's youngest brother Jared, was going through the temple for the first time in November. We were all invited, so the girl's Uncle Tait graciously offered to watch them, and their cousin Faith, so we could go. Tait is a pro cameraman, so he had some fun taking their pics and having them play dress up during the time.

These are my faves:

 We love the piggie noses.

 The Elton John/princess look suits her, yes?

 What Weeza's hair will look like when she's my age.

After the dress ups, they headed outside to play in the wonderous mounds of leaves in Grandma and Grandpa's yard (SO fun!).

 It just doesn't get any funner!

Hurray for Uncle Tait!

 And here's what we were doing:
L-R: Bryce, Caleb, Karlyn, Kara, Lynn, Jared, Karla, Spence, Me

 The Sorensen siblings

Little Jared went into the MTC just this week, on Jan. 19th. We miss you already and wish you all our love and best wishes as you serve the Lord for the next two years.



October 2010-Halloween Fun!

Onto October! We are making progress! These first ones are of Aislyn's Halloween party at preschool. Weeze was REEPUNZEL (or Rapunzel as the rest of us know her). She loves preschool and is just so darn cute with all that yarn piled on her head!

 And here is Amelia Earhart, or Cetera, as we like to call her. Halloween coincided with a class project she was working on, a wax musuem, where she had to pick a character from history to become. She was SUPER excited to be Amelia, so she got to dress up double! The short hair really worked out nicely for the ensemble as well....

 Here's the two gals, all dooded (word?) up to go and beg candy at Dad's work. Notice the fine makeup job done by the mother here.

 Princessa Weeza REEpunzel (I braided that hair all by myself!).

 At Dad's work. His company goes ALL out, and each section of his office had their own spooky Halloween theme. There was a pirate section, a creepy hospital, Candyland, and some others I can't remember, but were really fun (cuz the girls didn't want to walk through some of them, but had to to get the goods). Spencie DID not dress up for work.

 But just look at him working hard in his wee office.

 Here's why he didn't dress up for work: Typing with those paws may have been a challenge. He borrowed this from a coworker and had TONS of fun chasing small children around at the trunk or treat (and scaring the girls to tears a few times). It was QUITE humorous to see him being so crazy.

 The fam at the trunk or treat. That's me, the hippie, next to the monkey.

 OK, this is not Halloween, but it happened right after, and she's dressed up the same. Here's Miss Earhart at her school doing her wax musuem. She had to memorize 10 facts about her person (accomplished in less than an hour--last minute lady here), and had to spout them off when people came by and pressed her little 'button' by her. She did SUPERB!



Visit from the cousins - Sept 2010

We had a short visit from the Idaho cousins over Labor Day. We got to go to Pirate Island, eat pizza, and play Bingo (me and Celeste anyway!). We love when they come to visit!

Aislyn, Dax, Deacon, Uncle Chris, Cetera, Baylee, and Aunt Celeste's arm.

 Baylee was not excited to be in the picture. :)

Utah State Fair --Sept. 2010

We went to the State Fair with our neighbors in Sept. Usually I'm prejudiced against the state fair here, since I prefer the Blackfoot State Fair up in ID., since that's what I grew up with, and they have the most YUMMER food ever, and the last time we went to the fair here, the vittles were a sad sad substitution. But, I have to say, we had a most lovely time this year. Maybe it was our good company, the Caziers? :)

Here's Squeebs on the pony ride. This was our final activity, and needless to say, there were many tears shed from many tired childrens. So, we let them have their pony rides, cuz we were tired too.

 Cetera was appeased with a very large caramel apple. Just like her momma. With Milo and Amery.

And a most blurry and goofy pic of me, but I added it since it's the only other one we had from the fair, and it shows how excited I was to be having my pic taken. :)
