Spring Break!

We went to St. George for Spring Break.  It was so much fun!  We had a blast!  Thanks You Cami for letting us hang out with you and your family.  These are a few of the things that we did...

 We all got a lot of sleep.

 Cami did a lot of texting.

 The kids stayed up and watched movies and were awesome!

 We did a little shopping.  We wanted to buy stuff but we couldn't find a darn thing to buy.  Cami couldn't even find anything to buy, so things were pretty rough!

 We swam at Cami's sisters house.  It was the best!  The grass was even perfect.  She has a sweet set-up.  I could visit or live their anytime.  I was served turkey burgers with avocados every night.  DREAMY!

 We saw some mad skills from Cami on the pogo stick.  The kids were all amazed.

 We went on the "Short and Scary" hike.  The kids did great!  I stayed back, for anyone that didn't want to do it!

 We swam some more at Aunt Nick's.  Hunter found a new friend, one of Cami's nieces.  They were so cute together.

 We went on the "longest walk" in the world.

 

We made our kids hate us for 2 hours.  Poor Scotty got out and walked she was so tired of sitting in her stroller.

 We saw our kids pray. They held hands and prayed it would be over soon.

 We saw Ryder purposefully fall to the ground.  He was done with the walk, that never ended!  We actually ended up near The Cracker Barrell.  We would have stopped for lunch but we didn't bring our money.

I saw sweet Ryder was getting in trouble.  I love it when someone else's kid is in trouble.  It seems like it is always mine.  Thanks Ryder for coloring instead of getting in the car.  It made me feel like a better mom.

We went on more hikes and had more fun but my card was corrupted and this is all of the pictures that were saved.

We had a great time in St. George! Loved it! Thanks Speirs and The Delfinoe's!

Easter

Hunter in her Easter dress. I have started buying her clothes and the same places I shop. It's kind of sad, to stay positive my wardrobe will double in size someday.

Halle is a lot of fun. She will still pose for pictures.

What's Up?

I haven't taken very many pictures lately but here are a few of the highlights!

Hunter has got a job! She is now babysitting. She can now pay for dance. JK. (In Jason's Dreams!) She called me twice while babysitting. She needed to know how to start the dishwasher. 1. I thought that it was good that she knew how to load a dishwasher. 2. She started it again, so she must have unloaded the dishes. MIRACLE!!! I love it!

Albert Einstein- Annie Oakley- Italian Guy

AKA neighborhood kids.

Giddy up Annie! You will have to ask Halle all about Annie Oakley next time you see her.
Hunter and Halle had a dance competition a few weeks ago in Mapleton. They did awesome. I love watching them dance. I am NOT a dance mom though!

Halle loves her hip hop dance. The audience goes wild when they get out on stage. There is a lot of shaking going on in this dance. Halle loves it.

This is Halles costume for her lyrical dance. Her dance group is getting so good! Their teacher's name is Ashley. She has kicked them into shape. The girls are so fun to watch. LOVE IT!

One Year Wiser. . .

Jason's Birthday is tomorrow. I thought I would surprise him with a few pictures of his past. Jason laughs because my family celebrates Birthdays for the entire week of their Birthday so, I thought I would start a day early! A week of celebrating begins today!

Camping- one of Jason's favorite past times.

Lake Powell- One of our favorite family trips.

Lake Powell- showing that he still has skills.

Sun Valley Idaho- One of our annual trips to the Bar Convention.

Jason's Heaven On Earth- The Pantsagunt

Family Time- Tubing down the mountain.

Sun Valley Idaho- Jason loves taking this ride on the tram to the top of the mountain. We do this every year.

British Columbia- Jason went on a "Bear Hunt". We now see Blacky every day in our family room.
Halle's Blessing- What a blessing to have a husband and dad that has the priesthood.

Triple Threat- 1. He cooks. 2. He runs 1/2 marathons. 3. He has ice blue eyes.

Jason has a crazy side. Look at those crazy glasses! JK. Jason usually doesn't do crazy things. This is about as crazy as he gets.

Jason loves food- He went to town on those potatoes at Disney Land. The way to Jason's heart is threw is stomach.

Jason also loves his family. He is the most loyal person I know. That is one of my favorite qualities about him. He has a lot of good qualities, I could go on and on, but I don't want this to get too mushy.

We love you!

More LoVe!

I love . . .

Halle, she is awesome. I came home yesterday and saw that my label maker was setting out on the counter. I was annoyed. Then later that day Halle came home from her friends B-day party with the Wii remotes. She had taken them to her friends so that more kids could play on the wii.

Look closely. . . she labeled them. Yes, she labeled them before she took them over to her friends house. I love that kid.
I love. . .

Easter decorations.
I love Valentines.

I made these for the girls. I wrote on the back things I love about them and hung them in their rooms. When they came home from school they had a little valentine surprise.

I love. . . this new cleaner that I found on Pinterest. It is Dawn dish soap, alcohol, and water. AMAZING. It takes off soap scum bathtubs and shines stuff. I just go around spraying it where ever I go. LOVE IT!
I love rice. . . Why? It saved my iPhone. I accidentally set it in an inch of water on Saturday night and didn't realized it for about 5 minutes. I threw myself on the bed and cried. I realized I was going a little over the top when both the girls were on the floor bawling with me. Everyone went to their computers and googled what to do. TA DAH RICE! I love rice. It didn't work until the 3rd day in the bag of rice. Now I am back to texting and other cool stuff.
I love . . . this Salsa. It is almost as good as homemade. Yummers. Costco is the place to buy this heavenly stuff. I feel like summer when I eat this.
I love. . . homemade wheat bread. I make this once a week. It takes 2-3 hours. If I catch my kids not eating the crust, I go nutty. I was really happy last night when it turned out so good. We ate an entire loaf for FHE.
I love. . . my school lunch supplies basket. I keep baggies, spoons, napkins, fruit rollups, crackers, apple sauce, granola bars etc. in there. It saves my precious minutes in the mornings. The only thing I have to do is make a yummy sandwich. If you don't have one of these you must get one.
I love . . . my house, but I want to paint the cabinets white. What do you think? I also want a new light fixture. What should I do? Jason keeps ignoring me when I ask him what he thinks. WEIRD HUH!
Imagine white cabinets, and a white subway tile back splash. AHHH!
Now imagine silver sage paint on the walls. What do you really think? I would like someone to help me out. Jason won't really get into like I want him to. He seems to think if he ignores the question it will go away. I will not go away!!

I love . . .

I love . . . Winter. We did homework outside in the sun yesterday, amazing!
I love . . . my new iPhone. I feel like I am super cool now. I even took this picture with my phone. I just like to hold it and shine it.
I love . . . that Halle has braces. This is a picture of her on the way to visit the Orthodontist.

These are a few of my favorite things!
