THE PAGE FAMILY

2009-12-29T12:15:00.000-08:00

So as tradition goes, every year we take the kids to ethel m chocolates

and sunset park to look at the lights.

Its always cold but the kids love it. this year when we went through

they were already boxing up valentine candy

and making peanut brittle. yum yum

my brother and his family always go, and we all have such a blast.

For the love of a dog.

puppy kennel....$30.00

blanket....$10.00

the look on their faces....priceless.

This year, last minute, we decided that it was time for a dog. I have had a really hard time agreeing to the pet thing in the past because of the responsibility that inevitably falls upon the mommy.....no matter how much they promise that it will be theirs and that they will feed and clean up after it. So Justin calls me and says "you have to go NOW, I found a dog." Be there asap! He conned this poor woman into selling to him instead of the person she had already promised him to! SO WRONG..but we are so lucky.

Total surprise to the boys though. It was great!

My boys love this animal. It is already part of this family and gets more attention that anyone or anything else....even me... :(

They are still trying to set the name in stone but for now its Mohawk. So cute because his hair sticks up on top of his head.

So lots has happened in the last several months so here's a brief update.

We moved back to the east side and love the place we are in. Lots of space and freedom for the boys and the perfect place to kick back and relax in.

We've all got birthdays coming up and you know what that means...that we are getting old. Austin is going to be 13 next month and it seems only yesterday he was starting to walk. Christopher will be 11 in February and Cam will turn 10 shortly after that. The hardest to believe is that our baby will be 8 come this summer.

In September we took the kids to the most magical place on earth and had a blast. All of the kids were old enough to ride together which was sooo fun! They must have gone on "mulholand madness" 5 times in a row. By the last time though, Austin was done! He looked like he was going to loose his cookies...and whatever else he had eaten that day.

so this is everyone. they turned out way cute huh!!!

no i was not beating my child. i was gone friday and the first story i get was ian was playing on the stairs and missed a step hitting his eye with his knee. sunday i find out the real story...it involved jumping on the couch, big brother pulling legs and voila....knee to eye! nice shiner.

of course i had to get another pic with great grams and gramps. they are so cute

2009-04-15T10:35:00.000-07:00

2009-04-15T09:21:00.000-07:00

dontcha just love holidays! it gives everyone a change to hang out and have fun. we had our annual waters family easter hunt and the kids had so much fun. passing pretzels, eating donuts, finding eggs, and lots of pics and food. before we went to the park, the mosers got together for pics by our all talented marissa and boy was that entertaining. entertaning the 12 kids and 2 dogs that is. looky here, smile big, look at the camera, treats, tears, sit, sit here, hold still...and lots of confusion. im sure that the onlookers thought we were a bunch of crazys. i thinks its been 12 years since weve had pictures together, well besides weddings. it was great.

2009-03-05T10:01:00.000-08:00

so its been a year as of february 24, and i just want to take a moment to reflect on the love and respect i have for this man. he was a great dad and grandpa, and respected by all who knew him. we love you dad and miss you everyday
one thing for sure is that he loved all his boys and they loved him. he always said "i love my boys"

2009-02-25T12:27:00.000-08:00

so this is a moms proud day. austin received the priesthood and mom cried. almost everyone was there!!! he even shed some tears. it was so great. he quoted the 13th article of faith when he was sustained in sacrement meeting. so proud of him.

afterward we had the fam over for the yearly superbowl gathering and birthday celebrations for austin, christopher and my cute little 1 year old nephew cohen. he was loving the cake as you can tell and christened my kitchen floor to prove it.

they are getting so big and i am getting sooo old. my boys arent babies anymore..tear...

2009-01-23T13:06:00.000-08:00

ok so my kids have a new found love and its the skate park. such a fun place for boys. jumping, leaping, riding, skating and even falling
getting bumps and bruises is a plus for boys. "this is the cool move i was doing when i got this!" awesome...lets do it again...

my bright star

2009-01-12T12:50:00.000-08:00

austin had he first orchestra performance and mom was so proud. he is doing so well. they were actually supposed to perform the day it snowed so bad but of course due to the weather it was posponed.

isnt he so cute...he looks like a pro

isnt christmas grand

2009-01-12T12:23:00.000-08:00

so i am finally getting christmas done. we always have the boys line up every year before going to the family room. they alternate every year youngest to oldest and reverse. so fun

every year we go caroling as a family. not justins fav but he endures it because he loves me. so this is my whole family. i have 1 sister (next to my mom in the middle) and 4 brothers. as you can see, we have tripled in size. also im a so blessed to have grandparents that my children know and love. they are still spunky as every, even at 81 and 91 years old. arent they sooooo cute

2009-01-09T16:20:00.000-08:00

let it snow let it snow let it snow..... we all had a blast. couldnt believe it. austins orchestra performance was canceled do to the weather so we decided to walk to the mall...yes i said walk....and get some dinner. the picture below is the one of the stairs up to the mall and yes it was still snowing. FREEZING..how crazy was that day

2009-01-09T16:03:00.000-08:00

okay okay. so it took me a little longer but here i am. thanks my friend cori. so just a bit of info. we are loving our new place and all are adjusting well. christmas was a success as always. and yes i am a year older and feeling it. justin and i fell asleep at 9:30. poop on us. anyway here are a few fun pics to see our adventures over the last couple of months. let me explain...we decided to go to the park shortly after we moved in and play football. the boys of course had to begin challenging eachother about 30 minutes later with a race. mom and dad got involved and poor christopher got the short end of the stick when dad tripped him and he landed right in...well you can only guess what happened. 2+2=christopher completely grossed out. you can see mom and dad couldnt help but to laugh which of course made the situation even even worse. thats ok.

so these are my nephews and neices. we decided that for my moms birthday we would give her one of those cool digital frames so off we went to the other side of town to take pictures. and vuola. arent they just adorable.

ian had his first school performance and when i looked up from the camera, this is what i saw. isnt he just silly
