2005

Our 2005 family Christmas portrait. We have Russell, Donovan, Nephi, Candace, Christopher and Michael. That Michael boy - he always looks like he is going to be up to something.

2004

April 2004. We had this picture taken just after Russell got back from Iraq. For all interested parties - there will be another thread dedicated to all the pictures we sent/Russell sent, visits we made to Fort Bliss, TX and homecomings. Something to look forward too.

Christmas 2004. We have Christopher, Candace holding Nephi, Donovan and Russell holding Michael - who looks like he's got some great plans.

2003

These two pictures were taken 12 April 2003. You may be wondering why Russell is missing from the pictures. He was in Iraq serving our country so we can enjoy the wonderful freedoms we do. We were proud to support him while he was away. We have Donovan 7, Candace, Nephi 7 months, Michael 2 and Christopher 5 1/2. You will notice Nephi's skin is starting to appear lighter than everyone elses.

Spring Break 2003. Grandma Zaugg took this picture when she and Aunt Carrie came to visit with the cousins. Nephi is not pictured as he was sleeping. We have Christopher, Candace, Michael and Donovan.
August 2003. We took lots of pictures of our family to send to Russell while he was away. This is one of my favorites.
Our Christmas picture we had done for Russell. Donovan, Candace, Christopher, Nephi and Michael. Nephi's coloring looks much better as he spent 5 days in the hospital receiving iron treatments. His red blood count was down to 5.4. The doctor thought it was probably his genetic makeup that this occured because he was getting iron supplements from me when I was nursing. When I quit was when he went downhill so fast.

Christmas 2002

We had these pictures done when we visited Grandma and Grandpa Rogers in Salt Lake City, Utah. They are not my favorite pictures as I forgot to put red shirts on you guys. Oh well. The mommy syndrome has struck again. It gets worse with each child. :) We have Christopher, Donovan holding Nephi and Michael.

1999

Summer 1999. This picture was taken not too long before we moved from Utah to Eagar, Arizona. I love this picture. All three boys look like they are up to something. L-R is Christopher, Franklin (cousin) and Donovan.

Christmas 1999 was spent in Utah at Aunt Carrie and Uncle Ron's house. Grandma and Grandpa Zaugg came a couple days later as the roads were super icy and they needed to stay the night in a motel along the way. Here Russell is helping Donovan and Candace is watching. Christopher is playing with a toy he got. The drive home from Utah was interesting. We got through I-70 just before they closed it. What should have been a 10 minute max drive on it took about 45 minutes as it was so icy. Once we made our exit - the roads were much better. We were so happy to sleep in our beds that night.

All the grandkids on the Zaugg side were able to get together during Spring Break 1999. Aunt Carrie, Aunt Andrea and I took you cousins and got these pictures. They are some of my favorites. In the top picture Christopher is 17 1/2 months old and Donovan is 3.
We have all the boys on the left wearing matching outfits! All the girl cousins are wearing Easter pastels. This picture was taken 20 March 1999 in Provo, Utah. Back row L-R is Donovan 3, Ryan 3 1/2, Emma 5, Karman 2 months, and Kyrsten 2. Front row L-R is Christopher 17 1/2 months and Eliza 3.

Easter Sunday 15 April 2001

Dad brought you Christopher and Donovan to the hospital to visit baby Michael and Mom. Michael was just a few days old and I was in no shape to be home yet. You guys looked so handsome coming to visit after church. I was very happy to see you. It was the most interesting Easter Sunday I've ever had!

Halloween 2004

Trick or treat! Here is Donovan the vampire, Russell the nerd, Christopher Pooh Bear and Michael Percy train.

Summer 2003

We had a colossal thunderstorm that dumped lots of rain. I got a picture of Michael out playing in the huge puddle in front of our house. I didn't think any more of him out playing until....
Mr. Isaacs across the street gave me these pictures! He got a kick out of watching Donovan and Michael play in the puddle. They were oblivious to him taking pictures until the very end.

You've been caught!

Fall 2001

Halloween 2001. We have the batman twins - Donovan and Christopher. Michael is just Michael.
November 2001. Donovan and Christopher being very silly batmen.

2000 - a trip to Phoenix, Arizona

Russell and I took the boys down with us to Phoenix, AZ in August 2000. I was pregnant with Michael. We stayed with our friends the Niu's and Debbie Niu watched the boys so we could attend the Mesa Arizona Temple with our ward. We stopped at a park on the way home to eat lunch. Here the boys are having a good time - despite the heat.
Don't drive with Donovan and Chris. They can't make up their minds!
Hang on Dad! This is going to be one bumpy ride.
Some more playground fun.
