2010 in a nutshell

Yes, the blog is FINALLY up and running again.  I had this post in my draft box so I thought I'd still post it.  Here is our 2010 year in a nutshell.  We rang in the new year watching the most spectacular firework display I have ever seen. 

My pregnant belly at 6 months...

Abba at the ward talent night...(my almost 8 month pregnant belly)

The Bishopric doing a lovely scene from Titanic at the ward talent night.

Jared spent a week in India for work.

He brought back these cute Indian clothes for the kids.

We spent Easter up at Nelson's Bay with the Prepchuk family.  Here is a pic of the crew sitting on the net on the boat on our Dolphin watching cruise.

Baby is about to make its entrance...3 weeks to go....

 Rex the cowboy...yeeehawww!!

 Lucy on her birthday...she finally got a bike and some fairy wings...

oops, not in order...Alivia's 7th birthday dance party..(in January)

Summer break at the beach..yep, still pregnant...

 I really love this photo...

Jared took me on a hot Valentine's Day date to see Wicked.  I loved it!

My awesome friends threw an fun baby shower for me in the city.  We had so much fun..

We were about to hop in the car to head to school and Rex came out with this hilarious scarf on his head..

The day before Jack was born I had a tea party with Lucy.  She was such a little lady with her legs crossed.

 It's a BOY!!!!  Jack was born in the morning on May 6th!!  Love at first sight I tell ya!!

He melts my heart!

 The fam meeting Jack for the first time...Seriously such a tender moment.

 Grandma Schill flew out from California to be  with us!  She was such a great help and the kids loved having her.  Of course I cried my way home from the airport when I dropped her off to go back to the US.

Uncle Steve came out for a conference and was able to spend a few days with us.

newborn kisses are the best!

Jack was blessed by his daddy!

Lucy's Dora bed creation that she didn't want anyone to touch.

A drawing that Alivia made at school.  The drawing of Jack is my fav... he looks like the cutest little peanut ever.

Remember the build-a-bear clothes Lucy somehow managed to squeeze her body into??!!?

 My brother Jeff, sis in-aw Ashley and nephew Jamisen came out for a visit.  We went to Jervis Bay...beautiful, but coooolllldddd!!

We laughed our heads off at this one...don't I look like I am Ashley's backpack?  She looks disturbed...I don't blame her. hahaha

Rex was attacked by a rooster.....he may have been bugging her.

Jeff & Jared went on an awesome hike!

 Night time BBQ with the Prepchuk and Hedquist families at Clontarf beach..

Jack first time at the beach...he ate a ton of sand... 

Pony boy is a fav at our house...my legs get a serious workout bouncing these two cuties around.

SUP??

Yeah, I'm supposed to be taking a nap but my mom keeps taking pictures of me because she thinks I am so darn cute!!

Lucy starts Primary as a Sunbeam!

Jack in the box

Pic below is way out of order.  My sis Rebekah and her fam came out in June.  We loved having them and the kids loved cousin time.
