Tristan

Tristan has decided all he wants to wear over his pjs or clothes is his little man robe to keep him warm. He comes out of his bedroom every morning with this on and keeps it on until he has to change it for a jacket to go outside.

This is his second favorite toy now. The little playmobil sets that sissy can't touch. He loves the camper or what he calls as the "trailer house."

This is Tristan and Tiffany's favorite toy. They spend all day taking turns playing with this kitchen. Woof even gets to eat at the diner sometimes. Tiffany enjoys sitting in the seat and stealing the food Tristan is preparing on the counter behind the booth.

Christmas morning

Tiffany was awake at 6am and Tristan was up at 7am. They ran downstairs to see if Santa came. Tristan was sure he was on the good list, but Tiffany came pretty close to the naughty list.

Tristan and Tiffany's new 50's Diner. They weren't interested in opening presents after seeing this.

The wind was blowing snow so bad it covered the cars and homes.

The snow is half way up the fence and its only December.

I'm ONE!

This is what happens to chocolate cake after you eat it.

Tiffany's First Birthday

I tried to make a cake without eggs in it so Tristan could eat it, but it didn't turn out. So Tiffany got a store cake and Tristan got to lick the beaters and eat ice cream. Tiffany's favorite food is Velveeta marconi and cheese. (which is the second picture) Tiffany is all hands on and loves to cover herself in food.

"I don't need this diaper on"

Tristan's souvenir head injury. He even got to ride in the ranger's police car.

Tristan mad when he found out he was only getting a picture in front of the bus and not riding it.

Lance had fall break and we decided to go camping in southern Utah where the weather is warmer. The kids did good for the six hour drive and slept most of the way. Tom did pretty good driving the trailer behind the truck. We didn't hit anything. Having the trailer was great. We had everything we needed. Including air conditioning during day and heater at night. The best way to camp. We hiked until night on Friday. While we were on the bus heading out of the park we were stopped by a frantic guy notifying the bus driver to call search and rescue to retrieve the body of a climber that fell 300 feet. Then Saturday after our first hike Tristan fell on his head and immediately got a goose egg rising above his eye. He got to ride in the ranger's police car. We then took him to urgent care outside St. George. He ended up being fine. But still has a nice bruise and bump on his head. On our way back to home we passed a plane crash along side the road. We are glad to be back home now.
