Happy New Year!!!

As 2010 comes to an end, I am reminded of all the wonderful blessings we have received this last year. It has been a hard year for my family, but we have been blessed beyond measure. We are surrounded by people who love us and support us. I have a few resolutions for 2011 and I am excited about them. So here they are...

• Say "I love you" more!


• Work harder to take care of my body


• Have more patience with my boys


• Strengthen my relationship with the Savior

These may seem like very simple goals, but I know they will bring me happiness. I love my family. They are all so good to me. Thank you to everyone for your support and love. We love you!

Christmas 2010

Christmas was so wonderful this year! All of the Rogers slept under one roof and were able to be together on Christmas morning. It was so fun for me to see the boys with their cousins. Tom's sister and her family came from San Diego to be here. My sister, Katie also came into town. The week was just full of family time, which I LOVE! As a favor to you guys, I have narrowed down the pictures that I am posting to just a few, lol.

Here we all are waiting to come down the stairs to see what Santa brought us!

Santa definitely came! We are so blessed.

He brought me a new gym bag, headphones for working out and fun stuff for my car.

Ya think Isaac is excited?!?!?!? He was so much fun this year. He definitely earned his gifts from Santa!

Here's Benny looking at his stocking. He got a new truck and lots of candy.

Benny's big truck from Santa!

Isaac asked Santa for a dart gun...

and "hand cups". I think I might regret this later, lol. What was I thinking?

getting ready to open their presents.

As Papa Randy would say... "There's my poser"!

so cute. I loved watching him open every single present. This one was a book.

Just look at the musical talent. Good thing you can't hear the picture, lol.

I think he's gonna be a star! American Idol, here we come!

Here's the kids table for Christmas dinner!

And here's the grown up table, lol!

So along with great food and presents, we were able to go to Grandma Greats house to visit and

Papa Randy's house as well. We went to Lily's birthday party. I was even able to talk to my dad on the phone for a few minutes who is serving a mission in New York! It was the perfect day!! I hope all of you had a great day as well and got to spend it with the one's you love. Merry Christmas!

Lily's 1st Birthday!

My niece Lily was born last year on Christmas Day! She spent the first part of her life in the NICU, but she is growing now and doing great! She is the most adorable baby and so full of love. Here are some pictures of her 1st birthday party!

This is the funniest picture of Suzy. It makes me laugh every time I see it!

Here is Lily Pie enjoying her birthday cake. Super adorable!

Here is her mommy with the cake!

Katie and Lily opening presents.

I am so thankful that they could make the trip down to AZ to celebrate Lily's first birthday and Christmas. Love you Katie!

Guthrie Family Christmas Party

We had our annual Guthrie Christmas Party on the 23rd this year. It was so wonderful to see everybody. Katie and Dustin and their sweet little girl came from Utah to be there, and Amanda and her kiddos came from Winslow. We missed Mark and Missy, P.D. and Jeannie, and Erin. And of coarse Dad and Marianne who are serving a mission in New York. Anyhoo, Becca was our lovely hostess and she did such a good job! Here are some pictures of our night!

All the adults that were there, except for Amanda, who had already headed home.

Katie, Stacey, Becca, and Amanda

Miss Maci! She is Amanda's baby girl and she is adorable.

This is a picture of me with 3 of the 4 baby girls that were born in the last year! I have been known as the crazy Aunt Stacey lately. Just love being around all those baby girls. From left to right: Lily (Katie's), Suzy (Becca's), and Maci (Amanda's) and #4 is Kynadi (Erins). That's right... every single one of my sisters had baby girls within one year!

Here is Katie with Lily Pie. She is the wiggliest little girl I've ever seen. So tiny, but full of energy.

and Lily!

It was such a wonderful night and we had so much fun. I'm learning to accept the fact that our family is now spreaded across the country and it's just not possible for all of us to be there for every occasion. It's hard, but life goes on. It was a great party. Thank you Becca Boo!
