Merrill Family

Our little "Kika" is turning

5 yrs. old!

Charlotte and Caroline back in for more procedures at the Hospital.
They got tubes in their ears and adenoids removed.
The anesthesia and IV is always the hardest part. Oh and can't forget when they get wheeled away in the bed and through the surgical double doors. I just want to follow after them to make sure they are ok. The worst is when they are crying for me to stay with them.
This will make a great difference in their speech and balance!
Can't wait!
They are such troopers!

Tonight we got to go to the Fall Concert.

Austin loves singing in the choir and is very talented.

Grandma Pember and Jon came along with me.

We had a nice time and ended the evening with huge root beer floats.

My big girls get their ears pierced when they turn 5!

(We are a little early, but we gotta take advantage when we go to the big city!)

Kalicia was laughing and crying at the same time when her ears were pierced.

The busy and fun Weekend!

It ended with Charlotte coloring pictures of the prophet.

She loves anything that has to do with writing.

She spent all of General Conference in this little desk working on her Conference Packet.
(Luckily we didn't have church the next day, so she didn't have to wash her pretty make up off her face or her Tinkerbell tatoo.)

We got to have family over for General Conference, that always makes it so fun!

Charlotte and Kalicia are leading the music.

GYMKHANA
All the cousins came to watch the girls run the barrels with the horses!

It was so fun to have them there!

Caroline took second in her age group, 2 year olds.

The girls got to go to a fun birthday party too!

FACE PAINTING

(And Charlotte was the only girl without pink on her face. Her favorite colors are green and black.)
