Halloween 2011

The girls carved pumpkins a couple of day before Halloween. They had a really good time. Getting all slimy and messy.

This year for Halloween the older girls wanted to be something scary. Emilie wanted to be a werewolf and McKenzie didn't really know what she wanted to be. All she knew is she wanted to try to scare her dad. Since her dad is sacred of clowns she found a really scary clown costume and that is what she decided she wanted to be. After we picked out the older girls costumes I asked Kris where all of our little princess went. He just laughed, so I said well at least I have one more that I can make a princess or something a little more girly. It was with this in mind that  I decided that Lexi would be Smurfet. I don't think that she really like the hat, but I was able to get a few pictures of her with it on.

Alexis's First Birthday!!

Lexi turned one today Oct. 31st 2011. We had cake and ice cream and opened presents the day before. She got lots of cool toys and really liked her cake.

Disneyland Oct.. 2011

This year for our vacation we went to Disney Land. Grandma and Grandpa Dickson, and Rushell, Jeff and the boys also came out. We all had a great time. We didn't tell the girls that we were going to go. They thought that we were going to Las Vegas. When we got to Vegas we finally told them that we were not staying and that we were going to go to Disney Land. McKenzie said "Can't we just stay here." Emilie said "I am tired I was looking forward to taking a nap at the hotel." Needless to say they were not that excited until we said that there is a pool at the house that we are staying at and they can swim all they want. Here are some pics. There are also some pictures at the Natural History Museum. That is where we went on one of the days that it rained all day.

Back to school 2011

Emilie and McKenzie's first day of School 2011. Emilie started the 6th grade in the Junior High School and McKenzie started the 3rd grade at Kings Peak Elementary.

Summer 2011

 The girls had lots of fun this summer. they attended a dance clinic that the high school Cougarette dance team put on. They were able to preform in a show at the UBIC ( a celebration that we have every year). Both Emilie and McKenzie preformed really well.

 My mom and dad were the Grand Marshals for the UBIC. We all pitched in and build the float that they rode on, which was also the float for the store.

 McKenzie didn't want to ride the Cougarette float, so she rode on my parents float instead. You can barley see her raising her hand.

 Emilie rode on the Cougarette float with all the dance teams. Although here she is walking next to it.

Emilie was also in a Play of The Pied Piper. She was one of the village children that was led away by the piper. She had so much fun. Her and McKenzie participated in a lot of acting classes that week, but we were unable to get pictures of all the workshops they did.-
