Random pictures from my phone :)

Okay, so I really didn't ever make an effort to take pictures at all last year. I will blame it on the fact that I spent most of the fall with my face in the toilet throwing up from this new Boyer baby. In fact, I still spend too much quality time with the toilet, grimace. I am going to make an effort to be better, though. For now, I've stolen some off my phone (quality isn't great, haha) and I'm going to post them. I may try to get Joe's from his phone as well. He takes a lot more on his phone than I do. :)

Once Nana and Grandpa's pool was fixed last summer, we had lots of fun!

Caleb was REALLY brave by the end of the summer--going down the slide and dunking under water all by himself :)

All last year, we learned about anadromous fish. Yes, we are a nerdy family, haha. At the end of the summer, having visited all the places that anadromous fish go on their journey, we had a fish party, complete with sweet shirts :)

Grandpa and Randon took Addie, Karl, and Lizzie backpacking. They had an awesome time :)

Randon and Grandpa plot out their course before leaving

My Lizzie loved it. Grandpa and Randon said she did awesome. :) They were so nice to take her along.

Gettin' ramped up for the trip

They were eating before they even left!

School did have to start eventually. Ammon started high school! Eek, I am sooo old!

Beautiful Hannah started 6th grade

Lizzie started at a new school for 4th grade. She has done so well. :)

Sweet Emma Sue. Growing up right before my eyes. First day of 2nd grade

My little man started kindergarten!

These kids ride the bus together every day

Even Bekah started preschool

Here she is at her FABULOUS preschool--with Aunt Em as her teacher

They do fun activities--and the class size is so small ;)

While the weather was nice, they did the park each week

Ammon ran cross country and I was sooo proud of how hard he worked!

Caleb and Lizzie both did soccer (although I don't seem to have a photo of Liz)

Cute cousins on the same team

 

Ammon and Hannah both got braces--I snapped this one day waiting at the ortho because Ammon was sitting like such a crazy kid

Sometimes we slept...

So we could keep up with our glamourous life!

Hannah enjoys styling the little girls from time to time

Emma wanted in on the action

We had a family talent show--Josh was adorable as always

Lizzie has been taking piano lessons from Aunt Em

Thanksgiving!

The kid table

The Burton fam

Grandpa carving the turkey

Stinkin' adorable kids!

Faces only a mom could love

Our family at the end of 2011 (baby Boyer in tummy and all)

Shows the sad state of my photo taking last year that I have two, count them--two, pictures of Christmas time (and they're both super lame)

Let's hope that I can do better in 2012!
