Ok, just more cute pictures of my girls!

I saw a post on the shabby apple website for the "picture princess" and I just had to put pictures of the girls on my blog and then put the shabby apple link on my blog so I thought....why not?! So, here is my little plug for my girls on why their mom thinks they are the best things ever! I love you Tay and Halle!!!!!! If you (other readers of my blog) have never checked out the shabby apple website I would highly recommend it. Beautiful dresses...all totally modest and they have sweet little girl's dresses as well!
Halle- 3 years old, will be 4 in March and is such a cute little girl. Halle's personality is one that is sweet, caring, and honest. Her amazing blue eyes and captivating smile are what make her a picture princess. Halle's favorite dress on the Shabby website is: http://www.shabbyapple.com/p-108-45-words-per-minute.aspx

Taylor-5 years old and so smart! She is a ball of energy and fun. From her sprinkles
(freckles) and her permanent smile or silly face she never has a dull moment! She is a perfect picture princess! Tay's favorite dress on the shabby website is: http://www.shabbyapple.com/p-185-canary.aspx

Christmas with the Ingram clan!

Everyone looks sooooo happy!!! haha Sorry for catching everyone off gaurd with the picture.

Kaley, Heidi, Halle, Riley, and Tay.....Thank you for all the gifts everybody!

We had such a great Christmas! Thank you to both of our families for making it so great!

Winter fun in the Perfect Winter Wonderland!!

Seriously, these girls are gorgeous...and they are "boarders" So cute...miss you girls!

Love it, Tay was able to go skiing for the first time ever and she had a blast.

The adventurers, they drove there and home in a blizzard but they all said it was well worth it. Next year we will all be going!!!

The girls were jumping off the balcony to Greg and they loved it.

She did really well in the snow..she loved sledding, eating the snow and she didn't even mind the cold.

Beautiful Aunt Bridget! Halle would sqeeze her eyes shut before they even started going down the hill..I am going to miss that sledding hill!

Dustin family, we had sooo much fun with you! My girls are still talking about their sweet, cute cousins. We miss you Evie and Camille

Three little friends!

We woke up the day after Christmas and this is what we saw. Tons and tons of new snow.

Can you see our rental car in this picture? I know, its hard to find!!

Christmas Morning with the Dustin clan!

Grandma and Grandpa gave the girls a cupcake maker, they were so excited! Here's Halle, working studiously on her cupcake creation

Tay's cupcake was a red velvet cake, can you tell?

We cant tell if Halle is awake or not.....

Christmas morning is the best with kids!!

We had sooo much fun with everyone. We miss you guys!!

My Gregory!

I am convinced that I am married to the most amazing man alive...no offense to others. I just thought I would brag about him just a little bit. I feel so indebted to him! Since I have gotten sick, he has taken care of me, the girls, the house, not to mention his own practice. Thank you, love of my life!

Thank You Becca!!

My amazingly talented friend Becca, took our family pictures this year and I think they turned out soooooo cute. I want to put all of these up all over my house!

Sweet!

We said, "ok girls, act crazy" and this is what happened one second later....they are what they are!

Poster size, anyone?

The five of us ran the 4.5 mile Thanksgiving Dash and it was sooo fun!

In november, Tay's school had a Skating night so we went and the girls loved it!

Cute huh!

The big Cut!

Both girls donated their hair to Locks of Love...I was a little worried that Halle was having way big second thoughts!

Cute huh!! Tay had been bugging me about cutting her hair since this summer so she could "share" it!

So cute, Halle was able to donate 8"

Tay donated 10"

So pathetic!

I have so much to blog about! Blessings are like blog posts, so I should be writing like every minute but what in the world do I do with my days? I suppose I am mothering and stuff. Strange. I have my newer pics on Greg's laptop and he is out of town this weekend so I just wanted to blog quickly and then I can post pics up later. I have noticed that I am not a journal blogger. I am more of the, here are cute pictures of my kids (like 3 months ago because I am always so far behind) kind of blogger. But since I absolutly stink about writing in my own journal ...mabey I will sort of kind of journal on here...nothing too personal of course!

You know, I find it kind of funny that I was throwing such a fit about moving to Richmond, crying...using the silent treatment...complaining to my running group....cursing under my breath (no I wouldn't do that:))...and what did all that negative energy do? Nothing...not a stinkin thing! I still moved to Richmond! Uggh, did I think that all of that fit throwing would actual stop me from moving? The actual outcome was still the same...except that I had just made it that much harder on myself!!! well, and for my family. It taught me that no matter how hard we complain or whine or beat ourselves and other people up over the things we have to go thru in this life, we will still have to go through them!! Complaining and dragging our feet will only make it harder, it wont stop the trial no matter how small or big from coming our way! That negative energy is so very draining. So, I guess, I need to say sorry to all those that I constantly complained to! I dont love Richmond, but I am loving my life!

Ok, next post, pictures!

Halloween

Halle, coming home with her loot...look at that proud face!

This picture doesn't do it justice....our neighborhood was packed with people!! It was like that scene in ET when the streets are just covered with Trick or treaters!

Poooooor Tay...She got so sick over her fall break, On wednesday night she got sick with what we thought was the stomach flu but then it just lasted...she was sick on Friday (halloween) and come to find out, she actually had step throat, without a sore throat! Strange! She didn't get better until tuesday and she had lost 5 lbs! Thats a lot for a very little person.

Halle-busy creating her cheese jack-o-lantern for her hamburger (a dustin tradition) and little Tay eating a green popsicle.

On wednesday, before school got out for fall break, the school had a halloween parade...sooo cute!

Pretty Snow fairy princess the weekend before Halloween at the Indy trunk or treat

Princess Belle, she was so excited this year to dress up and trick or treat...it was really fun.

Two best friends!!
