So here are the pictures from getting snowed in at Uncle Doug’s over Christmas I was going to post forever ago.




Grandpa Gale and Lottie.

Aunt Cheryl and Lottie.

Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa Saunders.

Lottie learning to drink out of can. Luckily it’s not open.

Dale’s 35th Birthday Party! Lottie is all dressed up cute! Here’s Dale reading the card she made him.

Helping him unwrap presents.


Dale’s cake(s). Haggens make these really good looking cupcakes we had to try.

Lottie enjoying her cupcake the next day. This is not the extent of the mess. It was all over head, the back of the highchair, and more all over her and the tray. I think it’s safe to say we’re going to have a good time at her first birthday!

Definitely a Hershey’s fan.

She’s got some growing to do before she fits into Papa’s hat.

What kid pictures are complete without the baby’s in a bathtub picture. Here’s Lottie and her cousin Ahnna.

Out family picture from Thanksgiving. I like this one, it makes me laugh.

This is my side of the family at Thanksgiving ‘08. My parents and their six children, three sons-in-law, one daughter-in-law, three grandsons, five granddaughters, and one more grandson on the way (even though at this point she was just suspecting that she was pregnant again).

My sister Wendy and her family came to visit my Grandma Gloria a couple weeks ago since she isn’t doing the best. Here are Lottie, Ahnna and their great grandma Gloria.

Dale, Lottie, Nate and Ahnna at my Grandma’s.


Dale and Lottie checking out the pond.

Lottie outside playing a few weeks ago while papa worked on the lawn. This is going to be harder now that she’s crawling.

We saw this piano at Deseret Industries for only $8 so we had to get it. She LOVES it.

Whew, tough day, tough day.
I LOVE the little piano! Cute pics of Lottie, Mom said you were going to come out here for Lottie’s birthday which I think is way cool. Oh and I was about 3 months pregnant for those Thanksgiving pictures. I just had on a good shirt for hiding the frump.
ah, we have missed so much! Lottie is such a little girl at the piano! I hear you are moving closer to us! That will be good!
