Just trying out my camera lenses

When we got home from the reunion, I used my camera body with some old lenses that I have on hand. I remembered one didn't work at all, but it did for a few pictures. After that, the camera body wouldn't recognize the lens. Bummer.

Kemiah lost a tooth!
She got her hair cut at the reunion, so short and cute.


Naomi is just a silly little girl.
She loves to be with me, even if I'm just sitting at my table in the school room.

Not sure what Domonique is doing.

Hello!




She's just so dang creative and loves to make things for other people. So sweet!

Wrong but so true

Overheard while Kemiah was working on her worksheets:
"When the government takes from citizens and gives to others in the form of benefits, this is known as _____________... STEALING."

Well, not quite but that's kind of what it sounds like. Silly girl.

Ouch!

Kemiah came limping to me and told me she had a splinter in her foot. I told her she would be okay but told her I would look at it. She sat down on a small stool and put her foot up. I saw a rather large chunk of wood and tried to grab it. It took a couple tries but then the piece of wood came out. I was astonished! I am sure there are others who have seen worse but, for me, this was the largest splinter I have pulled out of one of my children. Yes, this is the picture of the piece of wood and it's entry point into her foot. She talked about how her foot hurt the rest of the day. I believe it - that caused some damage inside. Note: don't slide your feet on wood floors.

She has reached double digits!

Happiest birthday wishes to Kemiah! Dad made blueberry pancakes this morning and started to freak out a little because we needed to go to Midland for Stake Conference and it was already after 8 and we needed to be there early so they could practice with the choir. He was starting to send kids off to get dressed while he cooked the pancakes. I walked into the kitchen, looked at the microwave and said, "It's okay. This clock hasn't been changed yet." I changed the clock back an hour and Kevin sighed! What a relief to gain an hour in the morning!

We enjoyed Stake Conference with our new born baby, who slept through it all. We came home and finished her cake, Kemiah style. We enjoyed California rolls for dinner (except for those who don't like them, they ate cold cereal) and we all had lots to eat.

Party time!
What a sweet brother!

Girls to her right.

A whole line of girls on the other side of the table!

Singing "happy birthday"
and bringing out the cake!




Naomi was excited to see the cake and pass it down.


Crocheting patterns to make adorable animals.
She will have so much fun,
once I teach her the language of crocheting
so she can understand the instructions.


Yummy chewy candies!


Fabric to make a skirt.


Whatever it is she's excited about it.

Carcassonne - a new game Tamara taught us
when she was visiting back in October.


No kidding - I had these when I was a kid.
They are back and so fun!


She asked for her own maze ball!

Grandma and Grandpa Nichols present.

Card with $10 - of course.


No way! That's just what she wanted!

Grammy and Gaffa's card!



2 Nancy Drew books


Storks and Secret Life of Pets DVDs and Blu Rays.

What could it be?

A new watch - since her old one died.


Yummy ice cream cake - 
cookie dough and cookies and creme ice creams!
With homemade fudge sauce
and cookie pieces in the middle!

Happy birthday to the one of a kind Kemiah. She is so energetic and excited about life. She is curious and creative. She shares and cares! We love you!
