The Dentist goes back to School

Josh was asked to teach Paige's class about how to brush their teeth and why it is important to have a healthy mouth.
Let's just say they ate it up!

They loved taking turns practising brushing the big teeth. They loved having him there it was really fun to watch.

Brock is 1

Happy Birthday little buddy, we adore you and are so glad you came to our family, you bring so much joy to us. We can't believe that he is one already! (this is his little stance that he always does, we love it)
We had some good friends over to help celebrate Brock with us. We did a little pizza party
His little cup cake
No hesitation at all, as soon as I put it on his tray and got the candle off, he dove right in.
Loving every bite
What a mess but he had a blast and ate it all up

Our Trip to Durango

We went to Durango this weekend to visit some of our best friends from Indy. Their daughter had a birthday and got baptized. We had a big rollerskating party for her.
They played the chicken dance, this was the first time my kids have ever heard it. I know they live a sheltered life
More Chicken dance, it took a min for him to get into it. But he caught on quick


How low can you go?
Brock and his little friend got pushed around in the stroller, they loved it.
They had these awesome little racer things that the kids loved to scoot around on.
These girls are inseparable when they are together, it is so much fun to see them together.
These kids were dancing all over the place, it was so dang cute!
We had a total blast with our good friends and their families. We love you guys so much, thanks for everything.

Let It Snow

A couple of weeks late, but we had a big snow storm and the kids loved it! It was so much fun to get them all dressed up and watch the joy in their faces as they played and licked the snow!

Christmas In Canada

We went home to Canada for Christmas to be with my family. Last time we were together was 2 years ago. It was so much fun to see my family, we did a ton of fun things. Everything is out of order sorry!! We missed my brother from Idaho because they were having a baby but they were in our thoughts.


We went to Vancouver Island for a couple of days and visited Butchart Gardens. The kids loved the carousel ride, it was breath taking there.
Butchart Gardens
The Parliament Building
Paige feeling the seagulls
The BC Royal Museum, the kids loved the animal poop the best!
Parliament (for the Americans it's the state house)
Parliament building
We ate at the old spaghetti factory
My brother and his son, he was the one that started the feeding of the seagulls on the ferry ride over to the island.
More feeding
On the ferry, to the island, it was cold, but the kids loved being together and running around on the deck. It was about an hour and a half ride.

The Langley Temple. So beautiful, we got to go a couple of times and I love it so much. It's only a couple of blocks from my mom's house, it was amazing to see so many people I know and love there. It was a little taste of heaven
Ever Christmas we get together, we have a big family dinner at the church so we can fit everyone. This is my Grandma Mattie, she's not blood but she has been apart of my life since I was a wee girl and we love her so very much, she is the best grandma anyone could ask for, besides my mom of course!!!
We get a little bit crazy and play crazy games at our family dinner at the church. Here we are sling shooting rubber turkeys across the gym.
And of course it wouldn't be a Fairbairn Christmas with out renting out the ice rink for the family!

My sister
Some of the nieces and nephews. There are a few missing, we have 21 in all
Christmas morning, opening up stockings, well they are actually over sized mittens
And we wouldn't have Christmas with out the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ so we acted out the nativity. Laurell my sister and Paige I think are playing the part of angels, or maybe they are just playing!!!
More Nativity actors
We had a fantastic time, I love being with family and making memories. I have the best family ever!

Where is Brock?

Me: "Josh, do you have Brock?"
Josh: "No, don't you have him?"
Me: "No I can't find him and he hasn't gone anywhere, he can't crawl"
Josh: "Where did you put him"
Me: "In our room on the floor"
So we go in there and after looking everywhere for a few min find him here. How sweet is this beautiful little guy?

Groundbreaking For Our New Chapel

A couple of weeks ago they announced a new Chapel for our area. The groundbreaking was this past weekend and it was a beautiful ceremony. We are so excited about this news because it will be so much closer to us.
