1/26/13 YULE BALL

 In our Stake, they have a blind date dance for the Laurel’s & Priests (16 & 17 yr old youth).  Each boy is paired up with a girl whom is not in their ward and they are served dinner and have a dance.  It’s kind of scary going on a blind date, but it’s also fun!  They have to be asked in a creative way.  We came home from Christmas vacation and there was a puzzle on our doorstep with a note on it telling Ashley to put the puzzle together.  Ashley HATES puzzles!  It was fun watching her put it all together.  On the back was written “will you go to Yule Ball with me”?  She emailed her date back and said “yes”.  She looked beautiful!!!

1/26/13 AYLEXIE’S 15TH BIRTHDAY PARTY

Aylexie had a birthday party with her friends.  They played games, ate food and had fun!  I think their favorite game was “murder in the dark”.  There were some serious screams going on!  They also were pretty competitive in “just dance”!

12-31-12 SNOW!!!

 When we came home it snowed!  We were putting away Christmas decorations and looked outside and it was beautiful!  The girls made a snowman named Fredley (strange name, I know) and Thomas played in the snow.  Snow is magical…

 Ashley took this picture while we were driving to go shopping.  I think she is so beautiful.  My daughters are my best friends.  I am so lucky to be their mom!  :)  I couldn’t ask for better examples in my life.  People are constantly coming up to me telling me how impressed they are with them.  They are truly beautiful inside and out!

12-28-12 FEELY FAMILY CHRISTMAS PARTY

Mom & Dad built a new home and moved in right before Christmas.  I can’t believe it, but Mom got everything ready and even put up her Christmas tree!  We had a great time snacking on appetizers, exchanging gifts by number and hanging out.  I love my family!  I’m so glad to know they’re eternal and I can be with them forever!

12-27-13 SPENDING THE NIGHT AT GRANDMA & GRANDPA PEDIGO’S

 Ashley, Aylexie & Thomas wanted to have a sleep over at Grandma & Grandpa Pedigo’s.  They decided it would be fun to have a cousin party.  So…here are some pretty cool pictures of what they did while they were there.  Grandma planned some pretty fun stuff for them to do and of course, some amazing food to eat too!  :)

12-26-12 SILLY GIRLS

Here is a cute picture of my girls with Sarah.  Every time they get in the car, they take pictures of themselves…some are silly and some are pictures of them with their beautiful smiles :)  I’ll let you be the judge as to which picture you prefer…
