My Little Peanut!

It's the REAL Linus!
Yes, indeed it is true our little peanut 'Linus' has himself a 'security blanket' and not only does he have that, he has a 'Snoopy' stuffed toy as well. My mom got that Snoopy before Linus was born, and before she new what his name was, so it is not like we are planting this stuff in his hands.So anyways Linus really is in love with his blanket. He takes it EVERYWHERE! And he freaks out if he does not have it, for example he will not take a nap without it. This makes things hard when mom needs to wash it! So I decided to go bye him an identical one for such situations. BAD NEWS! This blanket is part of the Amy Coe "Limited edition" series from Target. So I go to Target looked for another and they no longer have the coveted blanket, so I look EVERYWHERE online and NOWHERE has it! So that royally sucks! I just pray this blanket NEVER gets lost (just like it did on 'A Boy Named Charlie Brown' poor Linus was all out of sorts). I was able to find an Amy Coe blanket that is the same only BLUE with lions on it, same blanket however it is not the green one with the elephants. It has not arrived in the mail yet so we will see how he likes it. I am hoping he will like it though because this blanket business is bad news when I need to wash it, which is like all the time!

We will miss you!

WE THANK THEE OH GOD FOR OUR PROPHET!Well we here at the Harker home are very saddened over the death of our beloved prophet Gordon B. Hinckley. He became the prophet when I was in the 5 th grade, making me only 11 years old, so I have grown up with him. I will miss him so much but I know he is in a better place and he is with his sweet sweet wife. I am so grateful for the gospel and for all the great work Pres. Hinckley has done during his time as Pres. what an amazing man! We Love You Pres. Hinckley and we will miss you!

Family Photos!

Here is our most recent family photos we had taken just before Christmas. We did not send out Christmas cards this year because we were so busy so we decided on a new tradition and sent out 'New Year's' cards instead. Anyways for those of you who never got back to me with your addresses here is the photos from out card!


New Years Day!

On new years day we spent the day and Danny's parent's house playing Dance Dance Revolution. It was entertaining to watch everyone and their mad dancing skills!
Danny and his brother Dr. Nick!Danny's parents Jenni and Brent even got in on the action!
Here is little Linus waiting his turn.
Here is the funniest video of Linus and his cousin Elijah doing Dance Dance Revolution!

Christmas Time!

Here are just some photos from Christmas eve and Christmas Day. Both our families live nearby so we are lucky to get to spend the holidays with both sides of the families!
Here is my sister Holly (who is 4 months pregnant here) , my mom, and me on Christmas Eve.Santa came to visit all the kids at grandma's house on Christmas Eve and he read them all a story.
Linus is terrified of Santa, especially since the polar express incident.
Danny on Christmas, looking at the scrapbook I made for him. This took me a year and a half to complete. He had to idea that I had contacted all his friends including old mission companions to contribute to this book. It was well worth all the hard work!
Linus with all his presents! This was really only the half of it when you included grandma's gifts and cousins. He is spoiled rotten!
Linus got a play tunnel for Christmas and he loves it! Here he is playing with his cousin Elijah!

The Polar Express!

This year we went on the Polar Express all the way to the North Pole! Here we are getting on the train dressed in our jammies.
Here is Linus and Santa's elf 'Tootsie Pop.'
On the ride up to the North pole we got hot chocolate and cookies! We also read 'The Polar Express'
Once we got to the North Pole Santa and Mrs. Claus came on the train to visit us! Mrs. Claus also gave us her secret chocolate chip recipe.
Here is Linus with Santa! As you can see Linus is scared to death. We asked if we could have our picture with Santa and when I stood up to have the photo taken Santa thought I was handing him my kid and he grabbed him right out of my arms! Yikes! Linus Freaked out, the poor little guy was shaking, it took about 10 minutes to calm him down. He was so mad he took the bell that Santa gave him and threw it. It was pretty intense.
