Happy Holidays!


Talk about an exciting day! First Santa visited our house with some very exciting gifts and then the Garners and Silversteins stopped by to play with us!
We had so much fun playing games, opening presents, going on walks and eating a delicious dinner made by Dianna.
Who could ask for anything more than Family, Food and Fun on Christmas.
Well I guess we could have asked for snow, but hopefully it will come soon.
Happy Holidays to all!

Welcome!


There are few things in life that are true miracles and we experienced one of them on Tuesday, November 30th at 11:01 am. At that time Cole Andrew Taylor came in to our family. Both mom and Cole are doing very well. Cole is a very special baby. He is very sweet and loves to sit in your arms and listen to stories.

Heleyna and Braden both love their new brother. Dr. Heleyna even gave Cole and mommy a quick check-up.
Welcome Cole! We look forward all of the exciting experiences you will bring to our family.

Deep Dark Clouds

The kids were having so much fun with this one that I had to get it on video. Check out Braden's face. It's hilarious. Heleyna wants some of the action too!

The Banana

I know this has nothing to do with our trip to Disney World, but I had to share it anyway. As many of you know Braden takes his eating very seriously. We were at Akerhaus to have lunch with the Princesses when Dianna brought Braden a banana. She was trying to make it easier for Braden to eat and broke the banana in half. Braden could not believe that mommy would do such a horrible thing.


All turned out in the end though. Braden ate his banana (and another one mommy brought). And he got to see all of the Princesses. I don't think he was excited as Heleyna though.

Cinderella





Who doesn't love the Princesses?

Heleyna has been a true believer since the day she was born. Her favorite is Cinderella. And this week she got to meet the entire family. Heleyna was in seventh heaven.

I have to admit my favorite was Druzella. Her vote on the new baby is that it will be a Prince.

As you can tell, Heleyna's favorites were Prince Charming and Princess Cinderella. What a dream come true for her to meet them both.

Mickey Mouse!

Disney World is such a magical place. And this year both kids are really enjoying it this year.

Yesterday we went to our secret place in Epcot to meet Mickey and Pluto (no we're not telling where it is). It was the first time Braden has ever met Mickey in person. We he turned the corner and saw Mickey there, he squealed with happiness and ran to Mickey with his arms wide open. I've never seen someone so happy. It was like his best friend had just moved in next door.

Of course Heleyna ran to Pluto and played with him. I think she would have taken him home if she had the chance.

Such a wonderful place, this Disney World.

Talk About Fishin







While putting together the pictures of Heleyna and Braden fishing, I came across a couple of pictures up on the river. I can't wait until the kids get up to Swan Valley to go fishin on the Snake River.



Hopefully we can talk Brian in to taking us down a couple of times.
