Thanksgiving

We went to St. George for Thanksgiving. It was great to spend time with Gabe's family. Here are all the grandchildren (except for Henry) having Thanksgiving lunch.

Happy Halloween

I added some ribbon to a shirt and overalls I found at the DI to make Gabi's scarecrow costume.
Tillie was not sure what to think about this dressing up thing. After she started trick or treating, it didn't seem to bother her.
Henry was just happy that day. He didn't go out (it was raining).

Emmi decorated the back of our van for the trunk or treating and Oskar helped take the girls around to the different cars to get their treats. They were such a big help.

time flying by fast

My attempt at taking a picture while Henry is smiling :)
Henry at 2 months old!

backyard pumpkin patch

Gabi and Tillie helped plant pumpkins this year. We didn't have a very successful crop, but we did get a visit from the Great Pumpkin. Gabi was excited either way and Tillie wasn't sure what to think.

Shopping Girls

The girls - shopping.

love

The girls enjoy taking their turn holding Henry.

Gabi will hold him until he's cried for a few seconds and Tillie loves to give him kisses on the head.

More joint birthday

The boys. Kicking it like boys should.

Emmi/ Oskar Joint B-Day Bash

Rented out a private screening room. It was awesome.

dressing up girls

Getting ready to head out the door and go to church. Gabi likes it when she matches someone.

Lava Hot Springs

There is a price to pay for fun - but every one matches :)

Christensen Family vacation in Lava Hot Springs. We had a lot of fun!

Every one went down the river, the kids all went to the playground and we went swimming at the pool. It was nice to be around family.

Girls Only Weekend

The girls and I went to St. George for a mother/daughter activity. We had a lot of fun. We went and saw Toy Story 3, went swimming and to a princess party. It was great to spend time with grandpa and grandma.

John Deere Green

Looks good on Ya Tillers

My first attempt at a multi-layered cake

Turned out to be edible, but too much frosting (or at least too much of the wrong kind of frosting).  Gave a slice to Mathilda, butI neglected to get a picture.  It was like her first birthday all over again!

Kinda hard to see, but there were four layers with chocolate, cream cheese, chocolate layers of frosting, with cream cheese on outside.

The New Style

Here's how I'm Rollin' these days....

Look Who Has Glasses!

Oskar got some new glasses, so I had to get some too!

Mine are way cooler though. (call me Morty)

Monkeyballs

Valentine's Day MonkeyBalls!

What happens when you leave the bathroom door open?

Tillie found her way to the toilet paper. Oh what fun it is to pull it!

Piano Recital

Emmi & Oskar just before the recital started.

Emmi played Can You Feel the Love Tonight, Little Indian Dance and Peanut Butter.

Oskar played Shaggy Dog Bop, The Animal Band and Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah.

They both did a really good job! Way to go, guys!

Hi! from Tillie
