Happy New Year?!

I can't believe it going to be 2009. I haven't written in a long time. The holiday season gets so busy. We have enjoyed it with all our family though. It was Brielle's first Thanksgiving with lots of the traditional foods (for her) milk! She didn't even care about the wrapping paper or boxes at Christmas. Kelly and Megan enjoyed Christmas, where I spoiled them too much. It was tons of fun. We've enjoyed Seth having extra time off work. We might all go through withdrawals when he goes back to work Monday, but he has time off for the New Year.

I asked Seth to make lunch for the girls and he made Brielle Soup!

The girls looked so cute in

their Christmas dresses!!!

They got to tell Santa what they wanted at a Christmas party. Kelly wouldn't look at him but talked with him. Megan wanted nothing to do with him so a friend Lindsey sat on Santa's lap and talked to Santa for her. Thanks Lindsey:)

One More

Ok here is a new picture of Brielle, she is 3 months old now.

She couldn't do the school pictures so I did my own.

She is so smiley and happy!

School Pictures!

Kelly and Megan's newest school pictures!

I think they turned out great!

Hatch Family Halloween!

Here is our newest family picture. This year we all were the Wizard of Oz. Seth is the Tin Man, I am the Scarecrow, Kelly is Glinda the good witch, Megan is Dorothy, and Brielle is the Cowardly Lion. It was a ton of work, but so much fun. Good thing we only do it once a year. Seth won the most creative costume for his work party and the girls had fun trick or treating. I don't think we ever have to buy candy again. It was tons of fun!
Oh and Seth got a calling at church. He is the 1st counselor in the young mens presidency. He is having fun with the boys for a change instead of his family of girls! And what is up with the radio stations playing Christmas music on Nov. 1! Don't get me wrong, I am one of those who absolutely loves Christmas music, but Thanksgiving is a better time to start, or at least mid Nov. Who knows, maybe it makes us all a little happier!

Where did October Go?

I can't believe that October is almost gone already. I guess that's what happens when you are busy. I started the month of reading the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer. All I can say to that is WOW! I started Twilight and couldn't put it down. I had to so we could get ready for Brielle's baby blessing. As soon as that was done I read non-stop. I finished New Moon in 2 days and Eclipse in 1 and then finished with Breaking Dawn in 4. I am now reading them again to enjoy them until the movie Twilight comes out Nov. 21!

Here is our family picture we took the day of Brielle's blessing.

I had so much work to do around the house to get ready for it and I would not have survived except for my most wonderful sister-in-law, Kiana, and her brilliant talents came to the rescue! It was a great day for all our families to be together to celebrate.

This is the girls at Kiana's annual Halloween party.

This is everyone at the party. Megan, Gabbi (Kelly's best friend & Patrick's cousin), Kelly, Spencer and Brielle. They had a ton of fun! Kiana did a great job! Now we are busy getting ready for Halloween. I have all the costumes done except Seth's, which is a lot of work. But pictures to come on that. Happy Halloween!

Our 3 Beautiful Girls

So I am very blessed to have the 3 most beautiful girls.


Kelly is so full of energy and love. She definitely keeps me busy. She loves to help out with her sisters and chores around the house. She started preschool this fall and is loving every minute of it, and is making a lot of new friends. Kelly is Daddy's girl!




Megan is our shy girl. She is so different
than Kelly. She is very easy going, but
has a little bit of sass. Megan wants
to "take care" of Brielle all of the time.
She is a big help. She is more a mama's
girl, but loves Daddy and spends more
time with him now that we have
a new baby.





Brielle is just the most perfect baby.
She eats well and is already starting
to sleep through the night. She has a
great schedule that follows right
along with her sisters, so they all
nap at once and mom gets a nap too!
