Easter

Pre-school field trip to the fingerprints museum.

She taught me to stand tall,

to be strong when I feel small.

She taught me that perfect love casteth out all fear,

by loving me and holding me dear.

She taught me to love the Lord,

and to fight trials with a spiritual sword.

She taught me that it's ok to cry,

and she will always be there to dry my eye.

She taught me to count my many blessings

when I'm feeling all is lost,

and to enjoy my life even when it's covered in frost.

She taught me to laugh, and have fun too,

and to cherish the things I can still do.

She taught me to get down on my knees

when I feel I can no longer bear this disease.

She taught me to have faith and trust

in the Lord because He will only do what He must.

She has always been my greatest example;

everyone she's touched have gotten a sample.

She is my mom, and I will miss her so,

but my family is forever, this I know.

MLK day

We camped by the beach then soaked up the sun at the beach with Mike and Amber, & their kids.

School's out!

for the holiday break we did some fun stuff, and we started it with a trip to Mission Inn. We saw the lights, played with fam and friends, and drank yummy hot chocolate.

 Then Santa came to the Horspool home bearing gifts for everyone!

Then all the kiddos got to show off their new chistmas pj's.

We had a ball opening presents Christmas morning.

We spent most of Christmas day outside? swimming? I don't know if I can ever get used to having warm weather in Dec, after growing up in Utah.

The next day we went camping.

11:00 PM new years eve

I let Taylor sleep on new years eve because he had to leave at 4:00 AM new years day to pick up my parents from the airport. We went to the science museum with them.

Then to the mountains where the boys hiked up to a waterfall.
