99 THINGS...

This was kind of fun. Just copy and paste the list and make all of the things you've done BOLD. My sister-in-law had done this on her blog and it looked interesting. After I started reading through it I realized I have done some pretty cool stuff in my life and I bet you can find something you didn't know about me. ~Cindy

Canyon's Spotlight!

Finally I am getting back to my blog! We need to spotlight "The Boy" so here goes. After a family of all daughters we were thrilled to add this little cutie to the fold!

Just look at his Cuteness!! Canyon Lee Fullmer-born July 8, 2008, is just about to celebrate his first birthday. He is already showing all the personality traits of a true boy. He's rough and tough, he love's to climb up on everything dangerously high, and he growls! Gggrrrrr.

One of his favorite things to do is go swimming but he prefers the beach by far! He loves to play in the sand. He always has crazy hair up in every direction. And we all call him "The Captain".

He is definately his momma's boy! After three girls who are DEFINATELY daddy's girls I don't mind one bit. All his sister's 1st words were dada, but not this boy. His first words were Bob- which probably shouldn't count for more than jibberish because he does not know a Bob, then Mom (not mama-just mom), then Yes. We still haven't got to dada yet.

Hold your horses but don't hold your breath!

Okay I realize it has been ages since I have posted an update. This is just a small note to say that it will probably be a few ages more as we are currently crazy here trying to move to Page Arizona. Trenity will be flying tours over the Grand Canyon till November so off we go to the sunny south! Canyon's spotlight coming soon I promise!

Joselyn's Spotlight

Joselyn Belle Fullmer. Age 3. Birthday- March 25, 2005.

Jossi is my girliest girly girl! She loves all things princess and baby dolls.

She loves to go swimming, play with her cousin Trevan, take care of her baby brother Canyon, and go to Grandma's house whenever possible!!! In fact she prefers Grandma's (Bergstrom and Fullmer BOTH) to home.

...did I mention she love baby dolls...
...and her brother!!!!!!!!!!!! When Canyon was born I was worried that Joselyn would be the jealous sibling type because she is very much the center of attention type. However she surprised us all by loving that little boy more than anything!

Swimming

We went swimming for my nephew Trevan's 3rd birthday. It was also Canyon's first time at the pool...

...I think they all had fun what do you think?!

Christmas in Bethlehem

Our Ward Christmas Party this year was a large Christmas in Bethlehem production. For any of you who might not have done one before they are a lot of fun. We decorate the church like the streets of Bethlehem when Christ was born. There are a lot of shops to visit like the deli, butcher, baker, dress shop, toy maker, etc. And by the end we are visited by sheperds and wise men as the Savior is born in the stable. I was in charge of designing and running the main food booth for the ward dinner.We all get to dress up in native costumes.

Grandma Bergstrom had lot of great costumes for us to borrow.

Including Trenity's authentic Beduin robes and my skirt and headress that she bought in Jerusalem.

Canyon was the best dressed baby of the evening.

Christmas Tree Hunting

We finally got to go Christmas Tree hunting again this year! We love taking the kids up into the mountains to find our tree. Canyon opted to stay in the truck.

Of course we couldn't go without getting stuck! That would break tradition right? Oh well...Tire chains to the rescue!

The girls had fun playing in the snow.

And finally we find our tree...and of course like most years it is after dark. I like how Harley is weilding a large ax in this picture above Natalia's head. That can't be safe!
