Christmas Lights!

We went to see the lights at Temple Square last night with Amy and the girls, Brad and Jana, and Jana's family. It was so fun to see the kids so excited! The lights were beautiful and it was very crowded and COLD! But it was well worth it:)

Bubble Bath!

So, Travis decided to give the girls a bubble bath the other night. He used the dish soap and turned on the jets! They had SO much fun!

Here Comes Santa Clause!!!!!

Santa Clause came to the ward Christmas party on Saturday and the kids LOVED it! Austin wasn't with us that night .

Happy Thanksgiving!

We went to Chicago for Thanksgiving this year to be with my entire family! It was so fun and crowded. The kids had a blast at Navy Pier and the Field Museum. But they loved seeing their cousins most of all. Good food and good family, what a great way to spend the holiday.

Here are my parents and siblings!

Happy Halloween!

Alyse, of course, was a princess ballerina!

Austin was a bottle of mustard, Keaton was of course a clone trooper:)

Kally had the cutest costume, that she refused to wear soooo, we threw a tutut on her and she was fine! All in all, Travis and I got A LOT of good candy this year when we checked the kids' candy to "make sure it wasn't poisoned"! he he

My mother told Brad he HAD to cut his hair before the funeral and this is what we did to it!

This is my new movie poster " Satan's Sister" coming Winter 2008 to theatre's everywhere!

What a month October has been for us! I went to my cousin's wedding in Vegas on the 11th only to come home and fly out to my grandmother's funeral. I has such a fun time catching up with ALL of my oh so awesome cousins and relatives. Nanny's funeral was really nice. I know she was so proud of all of us gathering there for her. My heart is relieved to know she is with our Papa and she is smiling once again. Sooo, in Papa and Nanny's memory we lit the traditional Havard Family Bon Fire"!!! (Texans know how to party with fire)! I love and miss all the family all the time so, here's to the next reunion in 2010!

Viva Las Vegas Baby!

I took my mom to the atrium at the Bellagio Hotel. It was absolutley beautiful as always. I have to say that s one of my "must see" places to go in Vegas. I had such a great time with my mom! We both have been in some serious need of some R&R! And oh what fun shopping!

I just LOVE Autumn and all the fun colors!

The creatures and tree's faces were amazing!

This one reminds me of the movie "The Dark Crystal"! Mmmmm the little Gelflings!

I Love To See The Temple......

So, my mother and I went to Las Vegas this past weekend to my cousin Zach's wedding. The Las Vegas Temple was beautiful of course! I had blast seeing my cousins and relatives from the Lone Star State!

Ahhh, love sweet love!

Me and my mom:)

New Arrival! Meg Eden Hogan!

Welcome our new little niece Meg Eden Hogan!
Born September 21st weighing 8 lbs. 8 oz. 20 inches long!
She is the sweetest little baby! She looks just like her big sister's who were all smiles when they got to hold her! Amy had to have her via c-section and is doing well. I had soooo much fun just holding her! I LOVE being the fun crazy aunt:) Congrat's Amy and Craig!

Happy 6th anniversary of my 29th birthday!! On September 17th, 1973 at 1:17pm the world and my mother were never the same! Weighing in at 12 lbs. 4 oz. and 21 in. long I earned the title "Heavy Weight Champion of Arlington Memorial Hospital Nursery" So, whenever I hear some woman bragging about how big her babies were and the horrible labor bla bla bla, I just tell them how much I weighed and how my poor mother survived it, it shuts them up real fast! Let's face it, not too many people can top that one:) I just want to thank my mom and dad first for not using birth control properly (or I wouldn't be here) and for being such amazing and supportive parents! And thanks to my man Travis for marrying me despite this ugly baby picture! So far it's been a good birthday, the boy's sang to me and Travis gave me flowers. The only thing that could ruin this day would be the devil himself .....SHORTY! (our retarded, homosexual dog!)

Keaton's Birthday Party

Well, it's official, we own every Stars Wars toy now:) Keaton had such a great time opening ALL his presents and blowing out the candles on his WALLE cake. He did make a wish but he wouldn't tell anybody what it was. I just can't believe he's 7 now! May the force be with you Keaton!

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY KEATON!!!!!I can't believe that our little man is already 7! Born on 9-11-01 at 4:47pm weighing 8 lbs. 4 oz. 19 in. Yes, that's right! He was born on THE 9-11! What a day that was for having a baby! Ever since we have called him Osama Bin Talbot :) He was the joy that brightened such a tragic day, and he's been a joy everyday since, well mostly. This year he is totally into Star Wars, so that's ALL he wanted for his birthday. Happy Birthday Keaton!

Yee Haw!

So, Travis and I took our little ladies to the Barn at Thanksgiving Point yesterday. Kally was in love with ALL the animals. Alyse on the other hand just liked looking at them but not touching! She would only throw the food to them. Her favorite was the baby goats. They were so cute that I told Travis I want a goat! Then Kally got ride the ponies! Alyse would have nothing to do with them. Kally kept saying "yee haw", "This horsey is so fun!", "I love my horsey". And as always Kally had to bring her purses with her:) We had a ball just "horsing" around with our girls!

Well, it's already been 2 whole weeks since my awesome "little" brother and his cute wife Jana moved out of our basement and headed for the great state of Nebraska! Every time I pass their empty room my heart gets a little empty:( We miss them like crazy but we know that they will have a great and stressful time with law school. We Love and miss ya'll "Brana"

Well, I am FINALLY getting with "the program" and starting a Blog!!! With 4 kids , a husband and a sorry excuse for a dog :) I figure this would be a fun and easy way to keep everyone updated on my sweet, crazy fun little family.
