So I know I haven't blogged in a while, but I'm hoping that you will all enjoy these pictures. We have had a very busy year and I don't get to spend too much time on the computer doing fun stuff!

These first pictures are of Shyla's haircut that she gave to herself. Tony was on nightshift so she is allowed to sleep with me when he is gone. I thought that she was sleeping, but when she got up in the morning I noticed that something didn't look right about her hair. She had gone to bed with her hair in a pony tail and it looked really matted at the top of her head. It also looked like she had bangs....she didn't have bangs when she went to bed. I took her hair tie out and a handful of hair came with it. She had found my hair cutting scissors in my room and too them up both sides of her head at an angle. By doing this, she did miss the hair in the middle of her head so it does hide what she did. I did take her to the salon and had it fixed to straighten it out.

The out come did turn out pretty cute though! She told me that her hair looks like mine now!

Halloween 2009! I turned all these pictures the right way on my computer, but for some strange reason it didn't save them when I loaded them to here, so you will just have to turn your head sideways to look at them!
Brooklynn went as Snow White this year. She has worn the dress several times since then! She had tons of fun trick or treating and going to the Harvest Party.

Tony getting ready to go to work. He was on night shift so he wasn't able to go with us this year.

Shyla went as Thumbelina from the new Barbie movie. She was soooo excited!

Shyla kept talking while I was trying to take pictures. She kept telling me that she was ready to go to the party.

Thats much better! Except that she's sideways...sorry again, just turn your head!

Brooklynn played this game almost ALL night! I had to drag her away to go get something to drink and then she went right back to throwing bean bags! It was absolutely adorable!

The game in the back ground was Daniel and the Lion's Den. Pastor Shaeden was hiding behind it and the kids were supose to reach their hand into the den to get the candy...Shyla and Brooklynn thought it was great but they wouldn't put their hand in it!

Erica, Isabel, Shyla and Brooklynn

They were waiting in line for the costume contest. Brooklynn won first prize for her age group.

She won a unicorn! She still sleeps with it occasionally!

Her break from the games also included a cupcake! She ate the frosting and that was all! Then she went back to the bean bag game of course!

Shyla was too busy running around with her friends to get too many pictures of her. She had a blast and is still talking about it and can hardly wait till next year!

These pictures were taken by my amazing sister, Ambur! We went out to her house and just had lots of fun on her property taken pictures. The girls did as well as a 3 year old and a 2 year old can do. It was really cold so we took the family pics first and then we took the ones of the girls by themselves next. We wanted to get some out in her pasture of all of us, but the girls were too frozen so we will try again in the spring.


I absolutely love this picture of Tony and I! He is the love of my life! We were able to get a lot of great pictures and it was hard to choose just a few!

Time for my balancing act! Please don't drop me!

This is one of the better family pictures. It is really hard to get both girls to look at the camera at the same time and smile!

Brooklynn Elizabeth 2years

I can't believe how big she has gotten this year! She has grown 3inches since July and is very outgoing! She is actually holding her favorite stuffed animal in this picture ( a wolf) but I was trying to crop it a little and accidently saved over the original picture.

Shyla Ryanne 3years (4 in January)

My how time flies! Shyla is amazing! She is the spitting image of me....if you couldn't tell. She even has a lot of my personality, but a lot of Tony's too! She is going through a growing spurt right now so it will be fun to see how much she grows in the next few months!

Ooops! I didn't mean to put this one twice! I forgot how to add pictures and it wouldn't let me delete it either so you get to look at it again! :D
