Cousins

Cousins are great fun!!

Good Times at the Bellagio and the T & Mack Center in Las Vegas

Families can be together forever

This is one of those classic family moments caught on camera. I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw this picture.

This was taken on the annual trip to Las Vegas during which the men go watch the BYU basketball team lose quickly. I am not sure if fun was had by all since I was not there, but the trip was not a total loss because we now have this fabulous picture!

Yay for a new camera

We just got a digital SLR camera and I have to say to Grandpa, now I understand why you are always carrying around your camera and insisting we pose for pictures. I am now an official member of the momerazzi. My kids have already been the subject of countless photos.

I am having fun learning how to use the new camera and am capturing better and higher quality photos. Here's my babies in order of appearance:

Some pictures and junk and stuff

For those of you that aren't on Facebook and are unaware of our new acquisition, I thought I would display it here! This is our new baby, our pride and joy. Introducing...the bus!



Emily is as cute as ever and thinks she should start walking now.



Andrew has proven to be as avid of a reader as I am. He has discovered a new series and is more or less attached to his book. It has him doing things like staying up an hour past bedtime reading. I don't know ANYONE who ever did such a thing!



Grandma Susan, Ella, Melodie, and me and my girls all took a trip in the new bus up to the Children's museum. It was such a fun day!



And that there are some pictures and junk and stuff!

Christmas 1962

Merry Christmas!

And Happy Birthday and whatnot. It's a tad quiet here and the mornings are no longer summer, but frigid, frigid winter. I thought I'd spread some Christmas cheer and stuff and junk.

Michael turned 7 last week and had a fabulous birthday!



And my baby, who is 7 months old, thinks it's time to walk now. She's standing in her crib and cruising furniture. She's a busy little baby.


Also, I'm moving my blog to www.staceysmotheringmoments.com. Feel free to visit anytime!

Love to all the Blood clan!

So cute

The boys are finally getting bigger and they actually started smiling this week! It was a long time coming and we are so excited to see them start to interact.

Here is a current picture.

Velna at Coral Desert Rehab

Here is Velna, racing down the hall at Coral Desert Rehab in St. George, recuperating from hip replacement.  She will merely kill me when she sees this, but thought you should have proof she is up and going.
