Just as life is like a rollercoaster with it's ups and downs, so it is with my journaling efforts. Gotta be authentic, right?

Where did THE LAST 3 YEARS go? Playing catch up is too overwhelming so I'll just try to keep going as if I never stopped.

Showtime!!

We have been running like CRAZY with three different "shows" over the last 4 months!
Show #1) Hunter's School Play:
We spent much of our time January-March working on this production- and it turned out wonderfully, if I say so myself! 
Hunter was amazing as a Villager: "You buffoons couldn't stop a fly, leave the saving to me!"

Show #2) Brett & Sarah's Show:
We always love it when we can do a show together- this time was extra fun (and cheesy) cuz we were able to "fall in love" on stage!
Lucky Stiff News Article:

We just had our closing night last weekend (hence the time I now have to blog about it)
Here are some snippets (in case you missed out)!

Show #3) SHOWING the house:
We added even more to our adventure
when we put the house up for sale in April...
After a month-long rush (and 19 showings) it sold.
We will be moving the last week of June.
It's a bittersweet feeling- we built this home almost nine years ago (and put tons of blood/sweat/tears into it- might I add), started our family here, LOVE the people, and feel really attached to everything and everyone... 
But we felt it was time and knew as our family gets older it would be even harder to move.
We have definitely felt Heavenly Father's hand guiding us throughout the process and feel we are going where we're meant to be.
We get to be "homeless" over the summer (living with parents and maybe out of the car!?!) while we wait for our new home to be finished. Cross your fingers for us- we're in for quite a ride!

We Are Alive!!

Yes. We DO still exist.
We are just so crazy-happy-overbooked-healthy-and-busy that time seems to literally speed by!!

This "Pumpkin Pie" masterpeice of a song
Feels like last week...
The Christmas Season
seems like yesterday...
  We took our traditional Front Runner Excersion to see the lights at temple square
Trae was as bright-eyed as ever, with lots to take in!
Kyler's Preschool Program was quite the crack up:
Kyler was as charming as ever, hamming it up and enjoying every bit of the spotlight:
The boys loved visiting with Santa on three separate occassions!
This Santa took one look at Kye and said, "I bet they never have to tell you to speak up."
(Yeah, no kidding!)
Hunter's Stage Debut: 
Hunter LOVED performing with Stage Dynamics-
After each performance was over, he would ask, "When do I get to do it again?"

And this
Just barely happened!  (Back in January!)
Thanks to Granny-Nanny we were able to take all three boys to Disneyland!
2012 is off to a great start!

3 Hansome Men

My plan was to get family pictures taken the second week of November (since Trae turned 6 mos. on the 13th), but unfortunately our family (or at least two family members at any given time) was sick the entire month! After waiting for us all to "get better" to no avail, I finally decided to just capture the boys sick or not...
Unfortunately, we got a lot of this:

A little of this:


 A few favorites like this:
And some nearly-perfect such as this:


P.S. That gorgeous header picture of Trae on the road is my creative sister's work, not my own! She amazes me- without ever taking a class or using any special lense, she has such a great eye and pure raw talent for photography! Great job Mandy!
