Mystery??? Can you Help me Solve it??

So we have a mystery on our hands....








Someone wrote with crayons on our staircase...








No one will fess up but we have a pretty good idea who it was.....








See if you can guess from the evidence.......









Yes, my little 4 year old can write his name and he's so proud. We found some of his handywork on the staircase and confronted him about it. He blamed Paige. I told her that Paige was going to be in big trouble for doing it, his face got all red, then Chris chimed in by saying that if Brock was lying that he was going to be in BIG trouble. Brock fessed up to doing the deed and had a 4 minute timeout. I had to get a picture of it before it was cleaned off. I laughed soo hard during his timeout I thought I was going to die!! A cutie... but a stinker!!

My Cute Kids!


Okay, I know I'm a little biased... but this picture of my kiddies makes me want to cry. They are not fighting, spitting, screaming, pooping.... they are just sitting still and smiling! They actually look like they love each other too!! At times I want to pull out every hair on my head, but when I see pictures like this, it makes it all worth it. I love my kids!!

Kristin, We're Boring

Kristin, this post is for you. Since we have been pretty boring around here lately, I haven't taken any pictures. My sister is tired of looking at my Christmas blog, so she told me to update my blog with silly pictures of me and the kids. But don't worry, we are headed to Washington in a month and then we won't be so boring... we'll be wild and crazy! Supermall... look out!!


Chris's ultra sexy daddy pose.


My little Paigey!

Party at the Felders


Us Felders, we really know how to party! Check out some of the hot action with Grandma and Papa. The game is called "The ladybug game" and it's pretty intense. Ol' Brock somehow always manages to win but we've had some pretty crazy parties that involve the ladybug game.

Christmas 2008

Christmas was fabulous this year! We woke up at 6:45 and started the morning out with fresh brewed hot cocoa (thanks Kristin!). Then we headed to the tree to find that Santa had left both Paige and Brock new bikes! We had lots of fun opening presents and laughing! Then the Felders came over for Round 2 of presents and we headed their way for breakfast. Grandma and Papa stopped over to see the loot and we all laid down after a feast for lunch. There was nothing extravagant about this year, but it was one of my favorite Christmas's ever.












Joseph Was A Hunter

Our Ghetto Nativity was lovely this year. While the emphasis was definetely NOT on the scriptures (that's enough Grandpa!) the kids had fun dressing up and putting on the Nativity. Brock was Joseph and wore his reindeer towel as his costume... we figured Joseph was probably a hunter and figured the reindeer hooded towel would work. We started the night with lasagna and garlic bread and topped it off with lots of presents from Grandma and Papa. Merry Christmas everyone- and thanks Amy and Yale for the towels and South Carolina gear!



Amy and Yale had a very special gift this year-- a new baby named Nash! He's a cutie!

Christmas Party

Who doesn't love a Christmas party complete with talent show?? We had a great time at the Sonju family Christmas Party decorating cookies and then putting on a talent show. Brock and Huddy sang their ABC's and Ba Ba Blacksheep, while me, Chris, Amy, and my mom were the aerobateers. My dad came in as Richard Simmons and put us through a workout! It was classic!




Cookies and Cousins

Cookies and Cousins- a fun afternoon spent with the Sonju cousins! We decorated cookies and wrapped presents til' we dropped! I think Brock ate more frosting than anything else... but it's Christmas... who cares!!


Snow Day in St. George?





Can you believe we had 2 inches of glorious snow here in sunny St. George. The kids had a blast playing in it... for a while. Then they froze!! We are not super prepared for the cold weather, so we were majorly mismatched!! Brock played out front with the neighbor boys while Paige sampled the snow and then cried cause her hands were so cold! The snow melted the next day but we had a blast while it lasted!

Men in Sweaters

At Chris's work on Friday, it was ugly sweater day. Now since most of the people working there are men, this is a direct challenge for their wives to find the ugliest sweater. And since I am a DI junkie, I knew that I would be hard to beat. Check out my hottie hubby in this hideous Christmas sweater. Now I know the embroidered teddy bear, stocking, choo choo train, Christmas tree, and rocking horse are bad enough, but to make matters worse, the whole sweater was bedazzled with lovely jewels and shiny beads. A sweater delight!! And yes, there was a competition, and yes, my man did win. He said it was down to him and another man with a turtleneck and Christmas vest on. Chris then showed the crowd his 2 inch shoulder pads and felt like that is what gave him the victory. Either way, we got a $50 gift card and some priceless pictures. Dazzling!


His Ultimate Fighting Pose-- his name would be Chris "crazy eyes" Felder.

Tuachan Fun

We went out to Tuachan on Thursday to be part of the live Nativity. Me and the kids were shepherds, while Chris got a major upgrade to be a wiseman. It was a blast and we loved having the Sonju's there to celebrate with us. Brock sure loves Andi and loved being able to be with her. Luckily this year, he did not get stepped on by a goat so all was well.








Morning Cuties



These are my kids in the morning. Brock has been sporting the antler/hand hat and Paige has been sporting a big black eye. Yes, my sweet baby who has a broken arm also has a big shiner on her right eye. She was walking in front of Brock while he was swinging, and let's just say, the next thing I knew, she was airborne! Poor thing looks like she got hit by a truck! Check out the sweet bedhead too- love it!

A Bad Combination

This is Paige's buggy.


These are our stairs.


This is what happens when you are 18 months old and you ride your buggy down the stairs.
Any questions??

Yes, it's true, my baby girl broke her arm from riding her buggy down the the stairs. It was a buckle fracture with two bones and we had a thrilling time in the emergency room! She has now fully mastered how to use her cast and loves to club her brother with it when she doesn't get her way. If I already didn't think that I was white trash before, I certainly am now as I tote around my baby with a purple cast on her arm. Cool.

Christmas Picture Woes!

So I've been trying to find a decent picture of my kids to send out on my Christmas Card and it just isn't working! We tried today, but since Chris and I were fasting, we weren't in a very good mood AT ALL and spent the entire picture session bitching at each other. Brock even asked me why I was so angry and I told him it was because I was soooo HUNGRY! He then said casually, then go eat so you can be nice. Needless to say, these are not the winners, but dang my kids are so cute!
