But now that we have it, I can actually put on some of the pictures I promised to put on before. I know you're thrilled beyond belief. So without further ado, here they are:
First, here are some pictures from Christmas:
After Christmas, Bryce's parents came to visit for a couple of days. Here are a couple of shots with them and our kids, but first is one of Chris being silly while they were here. You'll notice in the others how well the kids sit and smile for pictures:
Next up is Alex's birthday. He turned 7 this year. He is such a smart, nice, funny kid. He can be such a tease, but he's always been our one to make sure he shares with everyone else and will even still give his mom hugs in front of the other kids at the bus stop.
I was going to try to post a video again, this time of us singing happy birthday to Alex, but it appears to not want to work, so you just get to miss out on that.
Then life went on as normal for us, with not too much exciting happening, except I was busy with practices for The Ten Virgins play I was in. Here's a picture after our performance of our cast and crew:
Ben started going to the G/T program at school (Gifted and Talented) recently, and their first project was a country report. He started it when there were 2 or 3 weeks left to do the project, so they had told him he didn't need to do all of it, but he didn't tell us that, and we had him do it all. He originally chose to do his report on Russia, but since Bryce served his mission in India, we talked him into switching and doing it on India. Here's what his display board and report looked like:
After the play and Ben's report, our next big thing was when we went to Utah during Spring Break so we could go to Mom and Dad T's missionary farewell. I'm still SO excited for them to be able to go to the same place I served my mission!
While I was there, my mom was really nice and paid for me to get a haircut from Oscar. He does a great job and it's been a few years since I've gone to him. Cindy also went to him on the same day. Here's a picture of the two of us together after our new haircuts:
Here's a picture of Rachel, Cindy's baby, while we were there.
Abby still thinks it's hilarious to call me Cindy. She will laugh and laugh and laugh as she looks at me and says, "Hi Cindy."
After we got back from Utah, our big thing was Abby's second birthday. She was very excited for her birthday. When she first woke up and I told her happy birthday, she said, "Cake!" She definitely has a sweet tooth like her mom. Here are some pictures from her birthday:
These ones made me laugh. They were how Abby responded when Bryce told her to pose for a picture. And if you know Abby, you know she's really good at spilling on herself, which is why the front of her shirt is pink:
After Abby's birthday, it was my birthday, but we didn't take any pictures of that. Thanks, Bryce! :)
So that's basically everything up to our new computer. If you're friends with Bryce on facebook, you can see pictures of it. If you want to know what kind it is, here's what he said about the computer when he commented on the album: Silverstone FT02B, MSI P67A-GD53-B3, i5-2500K, 8 GB DDR3-1600, MSI Radeon 6970, Scythe Yasya CPU Cooler, Mushkin Joule 1200 Watt Modular PSU, Sabrent 65 in 1 Card Reader, LG 10x Blu-Ray Multi-Burner (Blu-Ray/DVD/CD), Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB HDD, Crucial C-300 128 GB SSD boot disk. I like it. I don't think that Stacey will ever let me use it though, I think she likes it more than I do... So if that makes sense to you, then you know what kind we got. If it doesn't, it's really fast, has a lot of memory (a hard drive and a solid state drive), and is really cool and actually really quiet.
