Baby #3

We are officially a family of 5!  Welcome Roxy Jade McCullough.  I'll post the birth story as soon as i have the energy and brain power to do so.

Merry Christmas!

Making gingerbread houses at 8am on Saturday morning.  The kids clearly had a fun time and we also had a fun time at the ward Christmas party.  I am really hoping to have a baby today.  I've been having contractions all week and i'm ready for the real pain.

Christmas Decorations

I love making things for Christmas!  

Painting with Dad

Mike has been working on a new painting and Owen wanted in on the fun.  When Owen grows up he wants to paint a bear with all the colors.  He wants to ride a horse. He wants to find bugs when he goes to work.  He wants to listen to rock'n roll ALL the time.

Guinea Pigs!

The long haired one is named Barbie.  Lyla said her name for the first time tonight, so cute.  The orange and white one is Sweetie, and the black and white one is named Michael Jackson....just kidding.  It's named Speedy.  We love our new little friends.  They have a fun outside cage as well with lots of running around room.

Snake Family

The big event today was Mike and Owen catching 8 snakes in our backyard today.   I'm just glad none of the snakes came in the house this time.

 It looks like the snake I'm holding is dead, but don't be fooled by the little devil.

Owen loves the baby snakes!  He had a hard time letting them go.  I'm sure he'll be out tomorrow to go find them again.

Closest I'll get to a Stampede this year

A family of snakes have made there home in our backyard.  As I'm typing Owen is finding baby snakes right now.  A bucket with a family of snakes in it is the next blog post :)

 We went to the Beacon Hill Petting Zoo for the last 10 minutes it was open.  Those goats were really cute and feisty.  Thankfully it only takes 10 minutes to see everything there and we even got to see the goats stampede to where they sleep.

We had a little picnic in the park and it wasn't long before we had 2 peacocks and a seagull stocking our dinner.  Later we had fun picking Ruban and Faiths apple tree at there new house.  We'll be back to do some serious picking and canning with all the apples soon.
