My 31st birthday tribute

Happy Birthday Lindsey Pooh

Lindsey (from your amazing little sister -Meagan)

1. Awesome big sister.
2. Very giving-she will do anything for others.
3. Super friendly. Makes friends with EVERYONE! Even in a huge city like San Antonio, she is bound to run into someone she knows.
4. Has an amazing voice. Hello Dolly!
5. Quite the drama queen, in a good way.
6. A fabulous mom.
7. She has perfectly straight teeth and a great smile. I have always been a little jealous.
8. Has her own dictionary of Lindsey-isms. Ask her where pickles come from or what the graveyard shift is.
9. Takes teasing very well. She got it quite hard from the three older brothers. Thanks for taking the brunt of that before I came along.
10. Has great sense of style. I loved it when we used to be the same size. Oh, I miss those days.
11. Artistic! Can draw anything she sees.
12. Hoarder of random things like play tickets.
13. Very organized. She is the one who taught me how to clean my room.
14. Makes some good mac and cheese.
15. Also a hoarder of Barbie shoes. I never got to play with them growing up, but we still have all of them.
16. Bargain shopper.
17. Awesome wife.
18. Loyal to her family. She’s got your back.
19. Exceptionally beautiful.
20. STRONG! I still can’t take her.
21. When we were little I fell off my bike and got hurt. She left to get help, and after the longest time I ended up walking home. When I started down our driveway, here comes Linds with a wagon loaded with blankets tied to the back of her bike. She was coming to rescue me.
22. Makes everything look fun to do. She got me to vacuum quite a few times because it looked so fun.
23. Loves to read. And each time she rereads a book it’s like a brand new story. Hee hee. Thought you'd like that one Linds.
24. Optimistic
25. Great looking hair
26. Always working on improving herself
27. Faithfully serves in her callings (10 hour funerals)
28. Let her little sister tag along most places
29. 1^st girl after 3 boys = tough!
30. Great listener
31. My best friend

Love the cute haircut Linds. I have always thought you were pretty great.

Cutie.

She and Natalie would always play dress up at Grandma's house. I wasn't cool enough yet to be allowed to join in.

Grandpa's farm girl.

Cheese!

See Audrey, it's ok to suck your thumb.

Mwahaha! L.O.V.E. this picture!

Brave girl swam a mile in the cold Snake River. Twice.

My running buddy. We always stick close by each other, at least until the end of our races when I smoke her. We won't talk about our half marathon where she beat my time.

Cute fam. Minus little Audrey.

Beautiful!

Audrey

 This was Audrey's latest body marking, she actually did a good job of putting an A upside down on her tummy!  She is a funny girl!  Feb 15, 2012

A fun snow day! I surprised the girls with all their snow stuff in the back of the car and took them to a small park next to our church so they could sled down the hill! They had a great time!

Audrey and Cambria being cute

Here are a few pictures of my girls just being pretty cute!!  Its a good way to start off my 2012 blog book!

Things that are going on

 Here is an updated picture of Cambria and her teeth coming in.  Last October, Uncle Neal had pulled 8 of them 4 on top and 4 on bottom.   (February 4)

 Audrey got to dress up at school so we got her all dolled up as Cinderella. I wish I could write how she says it!  (February 15)

 Finally snow in March! We really didn't have any good snow days except for one day in November and one day March.  (March 2)

 She has done it again! She truly is my Little Miss Mess (which I made a whole book about) The A is for Audrey of course!!  (February 15)

Leave this girl alone for a few minutes and this is what can happen.  This girl has kept me going since she was about one.  This would be stamp pad ink. And why all over her body and face? Who knows!!  (February 14)

Christmas Morning

Santa found us at our new house this year and made the girls smile!! We got up fairly early to check out presents because we had church to go to at 9:00am. After we came home and finished then packed up to go to Grandma Johnson's house.

This is one way to check whats in our stocking, just dump it all out!

The girls each got a lego set, wow how did Santa know just what to bring! And yes Santa always has his toys set up!

All she really wanted for Christmas was her two front teeth!

Audrey got the same presents as Cambria just a little different but she is still way excited to see what Cambria got!

Yea a Barbie desk!

Audrey had such a fun time this year opening presents. And she was such a good girl not to open them before Christmas!

Over all we had such a nice Christmas! Also this year my parents got us a freezer that arrived just before Christmas and was the best thing ever! Big smiles all around!

Reno Christmas Party

Each year the weekend before Christmas the Reno family has a Christmas Party. This is Cambria sitting on Santa's lap telling him what she would like for Christmas! Audrey wanted nothing to do with him and hid under her blanket on our laps! We all had a good time!

Audrey Winter Program

Audrey has loved preschool this year especially since she is with Cambria and I at Summit Academy! We each get to see each other in the halls and passing for recess! Audrey is in school 5 days a week so she is in two classes, the M,W,F and the T,Th so each thing she does she gets everything do it twice!

You will notice her sitting by some kids in these pictures and other kids in the later pictures. Two different classes!

The program was soo cute and she did such a great job singing! There were a few times she was the only one standing and I was in the audience pointing for her to sit!

A few times she would give me a huge smile and wave and air kisses!

She was so happy to wear such a pretty dress and had a gorgeous smile to go with it!

All smiles until it was time to see Santa. She was having nothing to do with that!
