Winter - take two

Camille did Paige's hair fancy for church one day.
 She loves her "Daddy Dimples"!
 Garet the creator, tinkerer, builder, mini engineer!
 My new wall!
 Dallin's 5 year old birthday!  He is ready to be a big boy who doesn't whine, throw fits, or cry!
 We love our Dalby!
 He got to have a friend party this year!  Mike and Ike and Lego cake and even a pin the mike and ike in the boys mouth game!
 We took a trip to St. George over President's weekend.  Exploring Snow Canyon!


 I got to try out my new mt bike!  It's pretty sweet.  I can't wait to ride again.
 Good thing we have connections to people with razors, mini 4-wheelers, and motorcycles.  Never a dull moment with these boys!


 I even took a spin on a kid motorcycle!  It was pretty fun, but I still don't want one...Jared.

 My cousin was so generous and let us stay at there house while they were out of town.  This is Hannah's bike that Garet is riding.  He thought it was pretty sweet!
 After church we had to visit the St. George temple!  Then we packed up and headed to Spring City to visit the Madsen's and have dinner!  It was so fun to see them and the turkeys.  The kids don't even skip a beat...they just play like old times. 
 When we got home the ice castle had melted a lot and later that day it fell down.  Winter is coming to a close, I'm afraid!
 Daddy Daughter Ball for YW!  This was so fun for the girls and their Dad's.  It's fun being in charge when your own family benefits:)  Camille is one special girl with a lot of talent.

Winter Excitement

Mason got these cool KEVA blocks for Christmas.  We made a few cool things out of them!
 The ice castle was back this year!  The boys were so excited it was finally cold enough.


 We were able to go ice skating 5 or 6 times!  The kids love it.  As long as Paige has her snow shovel she is a happy camper.

 Camille got a black eye from a competitive hockey game with Garet!  She was pretty timid the rest of the season.
 Mason is getting pretty fast on his skates and loves to pull Paige around on the sled.
 Scarlett and Andrew came with us a couple times!
 Garet is a really good hockey player for never having an official lesson or game in his life.
 New Year's Eve Sleigh ride in Liberty!  Grandma and Grandpa Cable, the Torgerson Family (minus Nate), and The Wood Family.  It was bitter cold, but so beautiful with all the snow, horses, and Elk.


 New Years Day visit to Duchesne.  We spent a few days in Duchesne with Grandma and pa Taylor.  More sledding behind the razor, ice skating on G Davies pond, and playing with cousins.
Hazel got powder in her face.  Brrrr!


 Dallin, Paige, Evie, Garet
 Paige is a crazy lady!
 We built Olaf out of the kit Grandma Taylor gave us!
 Lipstick twinners!
 I've been doing a little painting (ceiling, doors, trim, wainscotting)!  I love how it's turning out, but it's so much work.  I decided if I didn't do it now then it will never get done.  Spring, Summer, and Fall are super busy at the Taylor house!
 Another ice skating day at Hooper Rodeo Arena.  Some of the snow melted and then turned to a huge sheet of ice.




 Racing around the chairs!
