Snapshots from our Weekened

Easter was spent in Bonnyville this year and it was great to have Rachel and Jared home for the weekend. They had both brought their roommates, and Sarah and Brad came up for the day on Sunday. It was definitely a full house at John and Tam's.

We had a couple days of beautiful sunshine and Liam loved being outside. He never wanted to come in.

"Hey Emmett, come get the Frizbee"

Grandpa P. stuck Liam in the wheelbarrow and he loved it!

Chasing Uncle Jared around.

Brad, Sarah, and Isaac came up for the day on Sunday. The boys were thrilled to play hockey and soccer together.

The Easter Meal :)

Had to get this shot of Josh helping with dishes :)

haha...I love this picture of Liam. One of his favorite things to do at Grandpa and Grandma Phillips is play on the Wii.

The boys getting Horsey rides from John

And to end off here's a funny picture of Liam. On Saturday morning we got up to find him filling up Emmett's dog food. I guess he thinks we don't feed him enough :)

We hope you all had a great Easter weekend.

Liam is starting to talk more everyday and is saying more words than just "ball". Even though his mama, grandma, and Emmett all sound the same. :)

Now he can repeat a lot of words we ask him to say. They're not always the easiest to understand but you can tell he's trying.

Here's a little video of me trying to get him to say some words.

Liam's new thing is to take things from the cleaning closet and copy what mommy does.

I'm training him early :)

Sweeping...

Vacuuming...

And cooking :)

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I know, we're a little behind...this week has been quite busy as we are getting back into the swing of things. We were out every night last week, so thankfully today I could finally update our blog with our Christmas pictures.

(Side note: This post was started a week ago, and is finally getting posted today :)

Here are the rest of our pictures from Christmas.
After the cruise we headed to Vernon. It was funny going from one extreme weather condition to another in less then 24 hours. The night we got there, our church was putting on "Bethelehem Star" a real life nativity.

Waiting in the cold to see "Bethlehem"

Liam saw his Uncle Gerry as a shepard and pointed at him thinking he was Grandpa, with a beard :)

Melissa, Kyla, and Julia selling necklaces.

Inside the church. It was turned into a Winter Wonderland and looked so great. They had a children's choir, and Auntie Terri was there handing out hot chocolate and cookies.

Getting in a quick visit with my good friend Megan

The rest of the week was getting all set up for Christmas. Here is Jason and Jackson helping decorate the Christmas Tree.

Our Holiday

We are back from our wonderful family holiday, with lots of pictures and memories to share. The first week was spent on our cruise and the second was spent relaxing and celebrating Christmas in Vernon.

There are so many pictures from these 2 weeks, so this first post will be about our cruise.
