Emmi at the Food Bank

We were sorting frozen carrots.

Oskar at the Food Bank

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

Ward Christmas party

Built A Teensy Snowman Instead

Sledding Day!

So, I spent the last couple of snow storms shoveling all of the snow into a giant pile on the front lawn.


Shaped it into a slide for Gabi.


Bundled her up in her warmest Winter Wear.





Lifted her up to the top of the slide, on her sled.

And she says, "I don't want to try it!"


I guess we'll have to turn Oskar loose on it!

How Did Our "Little" Girl Get So Big?

New Christmas PJs

Tilda - 11 Months Old

Seriously, Who's Kid IS That?

Who's Kid is That?

I love those half-moon eyes!
