Christmas Pics

Bentley's Christmas dress. She wouldn't hold still for a good pretty picture.

Jeff's sister Jenny sent Bentley and I matching pj's. I looked a little goofy in mine, but they were very cozy. Thanks Jenn.

I was happy that she liked her presents. I thought she wouldn't really care. She actually liked this box better than the doll inside.

All the kids in their pj's on Christmas Eve.

The set up. Thanks Jeff for making the Christmas Eve set up fun!

I don't remember why she was crying but I love this picture!

New Year.

We had a fabulous holiday this year. Spending time with family and friends made the season fun. Christmas Eve we of course had a big Bob's dinner at Tami's. Then we did our little family exchanges and pajama presents, then it off to bed so Santa (Jeff) could arrange all the presents and display them so perfectly. He made big name tags and all. We love how much he gets into the set up, it is a big deal to him. Most all of the Weeks clan slept over at the Morgan's. It is a little chaotic but so much fun. Christmas day of course Jeff and Dave took off to the slopes, while the rest of us rested. It was a fun Christmas for all of us.

New Years crept up fast. Jeff and I invited my my parents, Jo and Ryan and Matt over for New Year's Eve. We also had the delight to have Jeff's mom Sandy come into town for the New Year. She is so much fun to have. We just played and shopped.
For New Year's Eve we had huge king crap legs, and one of my dad's soups, and of course the typical cheeses and bread that all my dad's meals include. We really had the extravagant meal. It was great, I had been craving crab legs for so long. It was the perfect occasion. It was pretty low key, we just talked, played some games, and watched a weird movie. We all had a great time.

Happy New Year to everyone. May this year bring happiness and success to everyone. We are excited for a fresh new year. We will be adding another little girl to family, building some new buisnesses, and making fun memories.

For some reason I forgot I had a camera through the holidays and pretty much got no pictures of anything. I will post some of the ones my family got as soon as they send them to me.

Hang'n Out

Bentley LOVES to eat her snacks at her own little table. It is so fun watching the two cousins play together.

Mel and I kept asking Alex and Bentley to hug each other. They wouldn't do it very long so it was hard to get it on camera, but how cute is that!


As you can see my child would rather be monkey'n around than smile for the camera.

Story time with Auntie Mel.
This is Bent's buddy Hugh. Just hanging out!

Christmas Play date

This year instead of exchanging presents with all my girlfriends we decided to have the kids exchange. Annie and Elle are in town for Christmas so we all got together at my house for a little play date! From the left it's Elle Egan, Bentley, Kacey borrowed her cousins little boy Asher to bring, and Ezra Park.


Just decorating some Christmas cookies. Except all the kids were more interested in licking all the frosting off the cookies and spoons!

Cute little Ez was the cleanest kid, he made no mess with his bagels and cookies!

Ripping all the presents open was more fun than I thought they would have.

Ezra's present was a hit to all the kids, they were all fighting over his bath time painting supplies. Some brushes got ruined in the process.


And of course the cheap Ikea tent was also the biggest hit for all the kids to play in. Who knew a tent could be so fun?

Just like her Daddy...

..she LOVES the snow! She was out sledding in our backyard with everyone for quite a while. Finally Jeff made her come inside because her cheeks and nose were bright red.



Poor baby girl loved it until the snow sprayed her face. As soon as we wiped it off she was ready to do it again.

Bentley and cousin Liv.

Still playing with cousins and loving it!

Me at 24 Weeks!

Jeff in Cambodia

Jeff served a mission in Cambodia from 1999 to 2001. He finally just went back to visit with some of his mission buddies. I was really sad to miss out but I didn't really think with my pregnancies it would be wise to go along.
Here is Pat and Mary Williams, Jeff, and Jim Hirst at the famous Angkor Wat.

Some old ancient ruins. This one is called Ankgor Thom.

I thought this was such a cool picture of this tree taking over this ruin. In the ruins of Ta phroum... the trees have become part of the ruins.

Angkor Wat and the reflection pond.

This picture was taken from Jeff's hotel window looking over Phnom Penh city.

The hotel pool where they stayed at Seim Reip.

They just pack these buses full of people, it is a wonder everyone gets anywhere in one piece.

These are the floating cities on the Tonle Sap river. People live on the water and fish.

Best pineapple in the world, cut right in front of you.

This is the new church in Phnom Penh. Jeff could not have imagined anything like this when he was there. They are in the process of building three more. When Jeff got to Phnom Penh there was 800 members, 6 years later there is close to 6000.

This was Jeff's first home he ever lived in as a missionary.

This is one of Jeff's favorite families that he baptised. BunTheoun just became the branch President and the church just flew his family to Hong Kong to get sealed. He was excited to see them.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Anika, Jaynann, and me at Cheesecake Factory. Jeff planned a fun little date night with some friends, it was so worth the 2 hour wait!

Silly Girls

I LOVE these pictures! This is the first time Bentley was trying to ham it up for the camera.

Alex and Bentley are best cousins.

Halloween Party

Jeff thought he looked so much like Chuck Liddell with his shaved head and facial hair that he decided he would be a fighter for Halloween. I wasn't really anything so he told me to be his gym buddy. Bentley was the cutest witch but she wouldn't wear her hat , so it wasn't totally clear what she was.

Here we are at the neighborhood party, it was a really good turn out! Me and Bentley with Ashley and Kennedy Maudsley.

Jaynann, Eric, Talon, and Tyler Gaoiran. Their costumes were awsome!

Dave, Casey, and little Lucy Ludlow

Ashley, Garrett, Kennedy, and baby Gavin Maudsley

Posh and Becks, I mean Anika and Nate Dart. So hot!
