Valentine's Day...

VALENTINE'S DAY

We celebrated Valentine's Day a day early because we don't have Courtney and Derek tomorrow.
So we decided to pick out something that each of the kids love.

Courtney LOVES SOFT AND COMFY PJ's

Derek LOVES Chocolate and Nerf guns.
So he was so excited when he realized that this bag of chocolate was
ALL FOR HIM!!!! 

And you guess it...
Cole loves CARS and M&M's





So we had our traditional Valentine Day Crepe's!!!
They were so so so good.
Costco had some amazing fruit so we had all kinds of fruit in our crepes
BLUEBERRIES, BLACKBERRIES, STRAWBERRIES
and of course you cant forget
BANANA'S


Cole's favorite part was the whip cream!!!!


Here was the Valentine's treats that Cole is going to give all his little friends tomorrow!
I wish I was a fly on the wall when he has his first Valentine's Party with friends!!!

My OBSESSION

You can call me an ADDICT!!!
This is my obsession right now.

The best part of this obsession is that I have actually created, made, read and changed things from this site!
Who ever thought of this was BRILLIANT!!!
I just went to a Valentine's Couple Party and I made these..

 Making these today for Cole's Valentine's Party!!!

 This is on my agenda to make to go above my mirror in my living room!


This is what we have had for dinner lately!!!




 Then for several birthday parties, ward Christmas parties and just some holiday fun I have brought these...




For my card swap group I have made these...


 Several of my friends have "Their Favorite Things Parties" over the holidays and I made these.  I love doing my hair with bobby pins so I decorated them and they all turned out so cute!!

And I have followed and tried to remember these...


So as you can see this amazing site called PINTEREST has really become a part of my life!
AND the thing that I want to accomplish from Pinterest from the end of the year is this....
I want to have ALL my digital pictures so that means I started to take digital picture in
2006.
So from 2006-2011 I want to have all printed up in picture books.
I have tried to put together blog books but I just cant make it happen!
If there is someone out there that knows an easy way then let me know... but I would be happy to just have all my pictures printed up and put on paper for my posterity!



Ice Fishing


ICE FISHING
on STRAWBERRY RESERVOIR

This winter Cameron has taken up a new hobby!
He has started to go ice fishing with all the guys from work.
They have gone about once a week for the past month.
At first he wasn't really a fan and just went to be "PART OF THE TEAM" but now I really thinks he enjoys it!
This picture is of him in a middle of a laugh because the fish kept jumping out of his hands!
I guess this is a pretty good size fish for ice fishing, but I was told that this wasn't the largest of the day!

Pioneer Trek Ideas

HERITAGE OF FAITH

Cameron and I are in charge of our wards Stake Youth Trek this year
July 25-28th

That is what has been on my mind for the past couple of months.
I think it is finally coming together..
BUT
If there are any of you out there that has been on a trek or your kids have been on a trek and they did something totally amazing please pass it on my way!!!
I am looking for someone or a couple of people to come (We are not going to Martin's Cove... staying in Utah) for an evening after the first or second night of the trek to give some kind of a fireside... talking maybe about their pioneer heritage, or anything else that you think the kids would really feel the spirit after a day of trekking!!!

New Years Resolution 2012

My New Years Resolution 2012

So this year I wanted to make some resolution but I didn't want to be the ones that I always do...
like lose weight, get organized, read scriptures, attend the temple more!
So I really have been thinking and my thought process as taken me past January 1, 2012.
I have really wanted to do something that I could stick with!
What I came up with was...
 LOVE MYSELF inside and out!
Do the things that I need to do to be happy with me. 
I have this quote on the side of my blog... but I found it in the format that I love!
This is what I am going to do for my resolution.


With loving myself I am doing something small everyday so that I can look in the mirror at the end of that day and say that I love myself.
I can do something small everyday!

ALSO...
RISE ABOVE... NO EXCUSES!!!!!

I am not going to base my happiness or self worth on my SIZE of clothes or what the scale says.
But I want to become healthy not only for me but for my family!
There will be no more excuses!!!
I WILL SUCCEED!!!!

A whole new world....

WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE?!


Cole is obsessed with with something new..
CARS 2.
He wakes up in the morning wanting to watch Cars, he wakes up from naps wanting to watch Cars.
He wants to eat his breakfast downstairs watching Cars.
He is hilarious!
So I thought I would get a picture of his first movie obsession!!
He has grown up so much in the last month or so!  His vocabulary has tripled if not quadrupled.
Here are some of his words.  People have told me to write them down... so here goes!

NANA = Banana, or anything in the kitchen that he wants!
Cacker = Cracker
Puppy
Titty = Kitty
Tep Tep = Bird
T.B. = T.V.
Bank = Blanket
Poo Poo = Dirty diaper
CaCa = Stuff I dont him he cant have (aka... medicine, old milk in sippies)
Cars = Cars 2 the Movie
Car = all his many cars that he acquired from his older brother
Theef = wants to use mine or dad's tooth brush to brush his teeth
Tanks = Thanks
Tank You = Thank You
Peez = Please
MINE = what else but MINE!!!
Shoes
Coat
Side = Outside
Vroom = Anything he could ride the mimics an ATV
Mama = Mom.. me or Dad depending on who's attention he is trying to get
Cheese = Camera or picture
Cheese = String Cheese
Dare = Derek
Norney = Courtney
Gama = Grandma
Mamme = Amy his babysitter
Ball
Bo
Sound of a gun = he loves guns.  He thinks everything that fits into his hand like a gun or even close to looking like a gun is a gun and he goes around shooting everything!
Courtney and I were watching the movie I Am Number 4... and when there was a scene of people shooting with lasers he went and got Derek's gun that has a laser light and went in front of the TV thinking he was helping the good guys!
Meer = Come here
Juice = Anything that goes in his sippy cup
Dear = There
Go = wants to drive somewhere

I am sure I am missing a ton!!!
