My sweet Norah...wrote on the Christmas tag herself...priceless!

My sweet sisters...Collette surprised me at Christmas and it was the best surprise EVER!!! I cried and cried...my reaction was exactly what she wanted...I screamed and cried and cried some more! It really was so much fun to have her and Alexa and Kevin come and stay with us!

I love that I am like front and center in this picture...not that i like being front and center...someone had to sit on the first step!

Alexa was freaked out by the flash! She LOVED Max! They both had their crackers and were ready for bed! Alexa wanted to sleep with Max soooooooooo bad!!!

Max really took to his Uncle Kevin...and same with Alexa! I think that Uncle Kevin was exhausted by the end of each day....

Eden Lang took our family pictures...she did an amazing job...

I love how Max is looking up into Steve's eyes...and the crinkle on Steve's nose...:)

Um....this picture of Kailey is beautiful...actually every picture that is taken of her is beautiful!

We love going to Drumhellar...we go each year with Atco for their Family Day. The kids love it! Max and Norah really enjoyed it this year! I am going to take the picture of us infront of the water wall each year! It will be fun to look at it in the years to come and see how much the kids have grown!

haha...KK looks beautifullll even with her funny face and wacky hair!!!!

My little ladies on a trail in the Kananaskis!

Norah dressed herself in all of her 'daddy dear to my heart' clothes! Emma is in the background looking for fun rocks!


Here she is showing me one of her fun rocks!

Norah was building a sand castle!

Kailey was putting the babies to bed and fell asleep herself! The marks on the wall...Norah decided it would be fun to color with my mascara! I have tried everything to get it off and it won't! I guess it is time to paint!

Norah eating chicken wings...

To say that she loves them is an understatement!!!

Eric and Max having a great time! I made this cake for Eric's Birthday!

Max was Batman AGAIN! What a surprise!!! Norah was so jealous!!


How cute is this smile?

I wasn't going to put anymore cakes on here...but these two cakes turned out really cute!

Max loves to get right in there with his sisters! Isabelle is in the background!
Most of the nieces and nephews (we are missing Truman and Nadia) at Rachelle's for Josie's 13th Birthday!
I loves this picture of Max and Kailey! More so...they love each other tons & tons!!

I made this cake for Hailey because she calls me "Momma Pieps" Just kidding...I would have made it for her even if she didn't call me that!

Random pictures...

Quite often Norah will dress up in Max's clothes!! (I am glad that it is Norah dressing up in Max's clothes and not the other way around!!!!) The funny thing is...she will stay in the same outfit for a couple of days! We ask her, "Do you want to get dressed?" She responds, "No, thanks! I am already dressed!"
My dear sweet Grandma turned 90-something!?? I made her this cake...she cried and even though she couldn't see it, she said, "it was the most beautiful cake she had ever seen!" Max getting a much needed haircut!

Tausha, Katrina, Me, Kenny and Lyric. My cousin Kenny came into town with his family. It was so much fun to see them and get to meet his sweet little family.

Kailey and her friend Sydney and Hailey!
This is just so funny! I kept all my dresses from my teenage years...and now my kids use them as dress up!

They took to the streets and had a great time humiliating me as they ran up and down our street! My neighbors must think...I am not sure! But 5 girls out running around...they sure weren't quiet...but they had fun and took a ton of pictures!
