A YEARS WORTH OF PICTURES...

 Don't get too excited.  It's not all that interesting.  And VERY long. If there isn't a caption on the picture... make one up in your head.  I'd appreciate if it is witty, and more interesting than real life.  Here goes.  Once upon a time I bought a house while Dale was at work.  We fit in it very nicely- until we moved our stuff in.

 This was our first house guest.  Our second was the burly man that I pulled off a lawnmower across the street.  He was a little less squeamish than me- and was more than happy to help me out.  (It may, or may not have had anything to do with the fact that I hadn't yet put on a bra)

 Dale broke his toe moving in.  Ironic, no?

 Found out the boys would rather pee in the outhouse conveniently located at the end of our driveway.  

 Dale locked the keys in the car.  He does this regularly.  AAA is my friend.

 We enjoyed the rain.

 I don't know what this is- but she's gonna be mad it's in here.  That is reason enough.

 Elle got baptized... so proud of her!

 Uncle Houston got to come!  L-O-V-E

 Dale's parents also came.  Sheesh if I would have known that we would have our first and last visitors all in one weekend, I would have planned more fun.  Turns out people don't like us.

 Crew hated, and then loved the harness at the gym

 Again.  You're welcome pyp...

 ...and Elle

 Crew started speech therapy.  Even though he is only there for an hour, he insisted on packing a "lunch".  It was 8am

 We had a BIG snow storm

 Tyke perfected his best picture smile.

 There was lots of tumbling.

 And some birthdays.

 We even took a picture with all of us in it!

 More speech therapy.  Crew LOVES miss Cherie.  He took her flowers.

 More tumbling.

 Look at the boys faces. hahaha

 LOTS of dancing.  Pyper did awesome on her solo... that I choreographed the night before her first competition.  I have promised her I won't do that to her again this year.  So far, it's not looking like that is going to happen.  What can I say?  The people that pay get priority!

 She won about a million awards at school.  Honor roll, presidential something another, citizenship, super duper kid.  I don't know, I lost track.  Ya ya ya... she's great.  I already knew that.

 LOTS of swimming.  We might have died without our neighborhood pool.

 More pictures

 We found out what Tyke really does when he is suppose to be napping.

 Kids growing up...

 Looking older.

Master classes at the studio.  Dance and tumbling cross over occasionally.

 First day of school... Pyper got sent home for her big dress code violation.

 We got new neighbors.  Here are the boys getting to know them.

 Halloween.  4 costumes in 40 minuets, for $20.  Not bad.

And the boys cleaned their room... which apparently means emptying the contents of their room into the hallway.  Technically their ROOM was clean I guess.

So that's it.  I didn't take too many pictures.  I was busy!  Consider yourself sufficiently caught up.  Except all my home improvement pictures... coming later.
