Another Day That Shouldn't Have Come

...Mollie's 3rd birthday!

We all gathered at Grandma L's house (did I post about that being finished? I'll have to check...) to celebrate. After dinner, Mollie opened her gifts.

Her first gift was a Dora makeup set!

Mollie was very excited to see that it came with "chipstick!" In fact, we had to bribe her to open her other presents because she would not put it down! I'm pretty sure she would have been perfectly happy if that had been her only gift.

And now, because your life will not be complete without it...
 

Photos of a three-year-old devouring a cupcake!

 

What a cutie! Here are a couple videos of her at the table. (I don't think people who aren't friends on with me on Facebook will be able to see these, but that was the only place I had them since my computer crashed! Sorry :/)





We love you Mollie! Happy birthday!

The Day That Was Never Ever Supposed To Come

 Back in December, this little guy...

Turned 13!!

I can't believe it! And neither can my parents; now that all three of their kids are teenagers, they feel old. :P

He still loves skateboarding though! Those are bearings; they go on skateboard wheels.

He also got a 4x4 Rubik's Cube and a video camera to tape his skateboarding! These clips weren't taken with that camera, but here's a short video of a few of his tricks:

I'm pretty sure he invented that last one. You'll have to ask him what it's called!

A Valentine's Day Heart

Last week in anatomy, we dissected a cow heart! Just in time for Valentine's Day. It was so cool! I'm not grossed out by this kind of stuff, I just think it's interesting. I'm a very visual learner so this definitely helped me! Here's my friend Bekah and I with ours:

I trimmed some of the fat off so it would be in the shape of a heart :P

Crash and Burn

Clearly all electronics are out to get me...

A few weeks ago my computer got a virus. We got it fixed but they were not able to recover any of my pictures from 2011. Somehow I managed to forget to put all of our Dominican Republic pictures anywhere...not on Facebook, or Snapfish. I promise you I have every intention of finishing my posts on our missions trip, but now, unfortunately, there will be no pictures :/

Yesterday, I was at my friend's house and it was raining outside. When I was running to my car, my phone fell out of my pocket and onto the wet cement. It was okay but last night it got pretty rainbow lines all over and now I can't see the screen at all. Thankfully one of my friends is giving me her old one!

So yep, I haven't been having the best luck :/

Well, I'm off to bed because I have to get up at 5:45 tomorrow! We're going skiing :)
