Sleeping Beauty!!


This is not a staged photo!  This girl is serious...  Note the furry pillow to accompany the sleeping mask.  We may well be creating a monster.  This girl is so coddled and spoiled it is ridiculous!  But it's also awfully damn cute, you gotta admit.

Merry Christmas 2015!


This was an amazing Christmas, as the kids are all at the perfect age to truly enjoy every moment and meaning!!  Even Marshall got into the action...  Momma wasn't playing around with gifts this year either.  The woman is crazy!  But we sure all love her and recognize how special she made it.


Christmas Eve Surprises!


We started a new tradition this year of opening a few presents on Christmas Eve!!  This year the kids opened a bunch of oversized games for yard toys...  Mia was thrilled by the life size chess set, and the twins couldn't wait to play the giant Connect 4.  The focus of our life has become trying to provide them a daily dream world...  It's awfully fun!

Vegas Baby!!





This was our 5th annual trip to Vegas the weekend before Christmas!!  We stayed at the Mirage this time, as Mia continues her quest to stay at every hotel on the strip...  Here are the Twins passed out in the VIP lounge after a long night at the tables!!  Even the Elves made the trip and surprised the kids with some treats after a night out on the town.  The kids thought the Stupidiotic store was fantastic!  Another amazing weekend of ice skating & smores on the top of the Cosmopolitan capped off a perfect vacation.

Desert Rats!


Daddy took Mia & Brandon out into the desert this past weekend for a little R&R Lovell style!  They donned their goggles & skull bandanas and made like pirates...  Fun, fun!

Reminiscing!


Ok, so I know this picture is a little odd...  But it speaks to the crazy personality of Mia! When we were at the mall the other day she wanted to go into the family bathroom to see if the 'little toilet' was still there that she remembered from when she was little.  Lo & behold, it was there!  I know, strange...  That's us!


Welcoming Committee!!


Momma had a holiday party for her boxing gym employees, at our house. Even though it was cold out, Aubrey & Brandon set up a campsite on our front patio and welcomed everyone as they arrived...  It was a little odd, but entirely keeping with their crazy attitudes!!


Our Little Elf!


Our little elf is getting ready for our first Christmas in our new home!!  Can't wait...
