Family Pictures

I finally broke down and payed someone to take our family pictures. I had done it in enough time to send out Christmas cards, but then never got around to making and ordering them. Oh well, maybe next year. I did want to share some of my many favorites. If you are in the Vancouver Washington area and need an awesome photographer, Monica at MJM Photography is amazing. Without further ado here is my little family :)

Catch up

It has been a while, so I have started going through some of my pictures, here is a little recap from September until shortly before Christmas.

Little Miss Marley chipped her front tooth :(

 Jeff and Marley went out of town, so Khloe and I decided to play :)

 My girls and my little brother

Halloween 2013 Khloe was Snow White

 Marley was a watermelon

 Picking pumpkins

I don't know why but I can't get over how cute my girls look walking into church :)

Back in October this was Marley's preferred method of walking down the stairs... Safe I know

My girls were lucky enough to spend Halloween with Grandma and Grandpa Bishop when they came for a visit

 Multnomah Falls

 Jeff and Khloe on the way up

 Marley had an easy ride up (lucky girl)

 At the top

 When we were finished it was hot cocoa at the bottom

 My little sister and I made a pirate cake for Braxten's 3rd birthday. For amateurs I think it turned out pretty good

 The grandgirls loving Grandpa Bishop

Making oreo spiders with Grandma Bishop (did I mention how much fun my girls had while they were here)

 Jeff's Dad helped him get a great start on Jeff's chicken coop

My Dad bought some colorful cookie dough for his grandkids

 Love these two!

 Marley did not want to get out of the bath, so she laid there ignoring me

 Trying on Daddy's hat

 Do you see how proud she is when she is doing something naughty?

 Practicing her letters

Christmas tree farm with Grandma and Grandpa Woods (My girls would not get near santa)

 This is why you never let a toddler eat cream of wheat by herself

 At the Christmas tree farm with Daddy

Decorating our tree

Khloe's 4th Birthday: We started out by going to a breakfast with santa that was put on by my Dad's work. After breakfast there were crafts... Khloe loved it!

 We went home and opened presents

Then we headed to Chuck-e-cheese with my dad and let the girls play some games

We finished off the evening with "cake" Khloe does not actually like cake, but she does love ice cream, so we just dumped a tub of ice cream on a plate and added some sprinkles, chocolate chips and candles, she still talks about how much she liked that cake, hahaha!

 one of her chuck-e-cheese prizes... silly girl!

Well, maybe next time I go through pictures I can catch you up to the present, but I wouldn't hold your breath ;)

Guess what is coming

Baby Girl Bishop
Coming June 2014

Some pictures and videos

Yep, I chopped it off :)

 Fire pit fun

 Khloe very interested in Jeff filleting the fish

 Pre chop

 Khloe and Jeff by the fire pit

 Marley out by the fire pit

 Khloe loving having the windows down

 Khloe's new helmet

 It occured to me that I don't have many pictures of our new house, but here is one that I do have

 Khloe painting aunt Melinda's nails

 My new kitchen

Marley hanging on for dear life hating having the windows down

Khloe on Jeffs back riding long boards down the yard

The kiddos splashing in puddles

Marley attempting to talk

We did it!

We got the keys for our new house today, we are officially home owners!!!

Moving and such

I have been MIA for a while, but for good reason! We are moving again.... but this time we are buying a house, WOOO HOOOOO!!! We should be closing in the next couple of weeks, then I will post pictures. I thought packing with one small child was tough last time, but with two small children it is even harder! I am really excited to finally be staying in one place! I have a lot of catching up to do, Marley has turned one since I posted last, we have been camping, and swimming, my best friend had a baby, we saw a beached whale, and all sorts of other things, but details on all of that will come in due time :) (hopefully) Sorry for such a quick sort of up date, but that is all I have time for...
