Are We Crazy!!

Yes we are!! We came from St. George where it was 70 degrees and not a cloud in the sky, to 30 degrees and snow!! We just got back from St. Geogre trip #2 and had a blast! The weather was beautiful. We got to lay at the pool and just relax. We had some good games of lightning with my sisters and nieces and nephews. We got to eat at Texas Roadhouse which we love, and get in the hot tub at night. Our kids are little fish and would swim 24/7 if we would let them. So that's what we did most of the time. Our townhouse did have a little fishing pond right by it so that was fun. The guys enjoyed fishing in the mornings.

Spring Fever!!



Wow the weather has been so awesome the last few days. We are enjoying it because I guess it's supposed to snow on Sunday:( On Wednesday we played outside all day! It was so nice. We played with bubbles and drew on the sidewalk with chalk! I even got a little sunburn. Avree wore her Snow White dress all day. She is obsessed lately and loves to dress up. My camera battery is dead so I don't have any pics but I will add some as soon as I get it working again. Happy spring to everyone!!

Oh, I have to add this funny story. On Saturday we went to Wal-Mart. It was really busy and I was wondering what I was thinking going there with two tired kids. Well we finally got our shopping done and we were headed for the car. So I am trying to get Kason in and he threw a fit because he hates his carseat. And Avree was having issues trying to climb in the car and yelling at me while I am fighting Kason to get in. So I am trying to help both of them and I said "You guys are driving me nuts!"
She just gave me a funny look and we went on our way. Well after we got home we were putting away all of our stuff. I had something she wanted and she looked at me and said " Mom, you are driving me in the nuts!!" I was laughing so hard! She listens to everything and picks up on so much. What a girl!!

Funny Boy, Snow Day, MTC & St. George!! Warning Long Post!!

I have a lot to catch up on. We just got back from St. George and had a blast. We were there for a full week and didn't want to come home. The weather was so nice and there was no snow! It was awesome and very relaxing. We went to the home show with Sherry & Neil & Lyndsay & Byron and saw some amazing houses. We shopped a lot of course and ate at all the places we wanted to. We went to Las Vegas on Monday and found some awesome outlets. They had EVERYTHING. We could have spent days there. So fun. We swam every day with the kids and got in the hot tub at night. They loved the pool of course. We got to play a crazy few games of volleyball with Kevin and Preston and of course my team won! And Sasha and I got to shop together while the boys golfed! It was perfect and I want to go back. It is way to cold here.

This is a funny story. One of the guys at the home show gave Kason a Hershey's Chocolate bar. Well thinking he couldn't open it I gave it to him with the wrapper on and didn't think much of it. Well I looked back on our way to the next house and this is what I saw! He had put the whole thing in his mouth and chocolate was squeezing out all over. Bad move mom! It was so cute though and he loves chocolate. He was pretty mad when dug the wrapper out of his mouth though.

A beautiful day. Avree, Braxton, & Brooklyn. The sky was so blue!

Kason and the chocolate again!

Avree at Ceasars Palace. She thought the slot machines should be for kids too. She wanted to play them the whole time we were there!

The whole fam at the MTC. A very sad/happy day! He is doing great and acutually loves being at the MTC and learning the gospel! So we are so excited and he flies out to Washington DC next Wednesday. Wow how time flies.



Here are some pics of our snow day!! We played for a while and then got too tired!!


Kason has been so fun lately. He makes funny faces and repeats everything you say. In his own cute little way! I absolutely love it. His personality is really starting to come out and he is a pretty funny boy. He entertains our class every Sunday and they would much rather watch him than listen to Nick and I!! Here are some pics I have of him just being silly.

My Little Brother, A Missionary!?!



So as most of you know my little brother Jordan accepted a call to serve in the Washington DC South mission a few weeks ago. I am so excited for him! He will be an amazing missionary and we are all so proud. He has a great personality and can get along with everyone. He keeps us laughing with his nicknames for everyone and his funny sayings.
At the same time I am sad to see him go. I have such mixed emotions right now. I know it will be so good for him and he will do an awesome job. But my big sister instincts kick in and I want to go and 'beat up all the kids that are mean to him.' Sounds crazy I know but we will really miss him. My kids love him so much. Everyday when I take the kids to my mom's house (my sister that lives there is their nanny,) we get out of the car and Kason is yelling "Jo Jo." He absolutely loves him. He will walk over to his picture at our house and yell for him too. Jordan is so good with them too and always makes them laugh. So we are so sad/happy that he is going. I know that the everyone there will take care of him and the Lord will watch over him. So good luck Jord, we love you and will miss you.

Oh and for everyone who has asked, he speaks at 11:00 on February 8th in the new Providence church. If you need the address you can call my mom.

Slacker Mom!









Well I was going through some pictures today and realized I had not posted Kason's 1 year pictres! I am such a slacker! I also failed to blog about him walking! I feel like such a loser mom. He turned one in October and we had his pictures done right after his birthday. He took his first steps about a week before Christmas. I guess I was too busy with all of the hustle and bustle. So I am sorry little man. Here is to you...

Goofing off with the camera!


Avree loves to have her picture taken. The other night she was posing for the camera. The pictures were so cute that I had to post them. Yes that is a tiara she is wearing, along with a Barbie nightgown that her cousins gave her that she absoluteley loves!
