CATCH-UP TIME...where to begin???

 These girls (Chelsea and Cambry Palmer, Natalie, Mariah and Amber) have so much fun together!

 Courtney and Hugh Palmer invited Hunter and I to join them for New Years.  We had such a good time chatting it up, playing cards, and jammin' to Rock Star Wii!

 For New Years Day, Hunt and I took all the kids to see a movie.  "TANGLED" was sooo cute!

 We got the chance to go vist Dad and Cindy during December.  YEAH!  We love our time with them.

 Poppy Moore came to see the girls first basketball games of the season.  He helped me wrestle Sterling in the stands.  We love Poppy Moore! 
 Hunter has been coaching Mariah and Amber's basketball teams.  The girls are starting to get the fundamentals down, and they are really having a blast with their daddy.

 Natalie allowed the kids to ride her pony.  Cody really likes riding.

 Cody is such a good big brother.  He invited Sterling to join him when it was his turn.

 This is the kitchen of the home we're about to move into!!  YEAH!!!!  HUGE, huh? WOOHOO! March 15th BABY!

 This was Natalie's b-day party.  Granny Jo took them all to Flagstaff to ice skate and play.  They didn't get home until LATE--and they LOVE IT!

 This is my mean face when the kids don't listen.  They know to WATCH OUT when they get this stare down. :-)

 Amber and Sterling like to just SIT on this 4-wheeler.  It's kind of funny really.  The bike isn't going anywhere anytime soon, but they think it's a good time to just hang out on top of it.

 Hunter takes the kids shooting occasionally, and Sterling doesn't ever get to go because of the loud BOOMS!  However, he likes wearing the ear-coverings every chance he gets.
 Sterling is such a fun kid!  He has the greatest personality.  TRUE--he's driving us crazy because he won't stay inside his crib to sleep anymore, but how can you NOT love that chubby, kissable face??

 Granny Jo took us all to the Snowflake Tree Lighting Ceremony in Snowflake.  It was neat to see such a great tradition in this town.  I had never been before, so it was a great--COLD--experience.




 I think we've all been taken with Sterling.  What a kid!!

 Our 11 year old, Mariah, finally decided to start taking care of her hair.  She fought us for YEARS every time we wanted her to bathe, groom, or brush her teeth.  We have finally arrived.  Personal cleanliness is now important to her!  YEAH!!!!!!
 Mariah, Hunter and I all got glasses.  Check Mariah's out :-).



 For Granny Jo's b-day, Grandmother and I went to see her perform in her Christmas Orchestra Concert.  Then we took her to a Mexican Restaurant just down the street.  SO MUCH FUN!!

 Each of the kids have found fun ways to entertain Sterling.  This was Amber's most recent method.

 
This was Mariah's Orchestra Concert.  I was SOOOO proud of her, as she was the 1st chair violinist.  She stood and tuned the orchestra and walked in and out apart from the rest of the group.  What a super star :-).

 This is Katrina Palmer and my mother--Granny Jo.  LOVE THESE LADIES!
 If I become just a smigin' of what my mother is, I'll be quite happy :-).

 New Years Eve pic at Courtney and Hugh's place.  We thought it was fun pretending that our ROOT BEER was a stiffer drink. HEHEHE!

 Ashleigh Palmer agreed to assist me as the Choreographers for the White Mountain High School Show Choir Festival.  We had a full week together.  GOOD TIMES!


 Hunter and I were invited to join Woody Dixon (the Pack 10 head attorney) for the game between ASU and Stanford.  Hunter and I really enjoyed our night out, and Woody is always good company!



 Travis serenaded Ashleigh with his self-written woo-ing song.  It was BEAUTIFUL!!

 Travis gave Allyson, Sterling and Isaac a blanket ride around Brent and Michelle's home.  Hillarious!

 Travis and Hunter
Hunter flew in from LA, and we picked him up at the Kansas City Airport late December 23.  He got to spend Christmas with us, and then he had to fly back to LA to finish out his time with Seyfarth Shaw and Cohen and Lord, LLP.  We were THRILLED to get him back into Snowflake for GOOD right before New Years.  He started to work as the Navajo County Director of Government Affairs on Jan. 3, 2011.  No time off, but that was what was needed for the check book :-).  Blessings, blessings, blessings!

 Sterling really like the sugar cookies!
 Actually, all he ate was the frosting, as you can tell :-).

 Jeremy (my brother) and Kendra, his wife.

 Mariah was SO excited to get this dance DVD--and so was I!!!!! So worth the money!


 Brent and Luke

 This flying helicopter was THE BEST PURCHASE EVER!!!  As far as toys go, this one is TOPS!!!  Hunter and the other adults enjoyed this one as much as the kids!  It still hasn't broken and it's already February 1st!

 Hunt--what a stud.  There's something wonderful about a man in the kitchen :-).


 Ashleigh won Sterling over.
Here are our great friends, Hugh and Courtney.  LOVE THEM!  Courtney has been my saving grace here in Snowflake.  I'm so grateful she's my friend.
