Hello everyone...long time huh? Well I like everyone else I'm sure, got lost in the hustle of the holidays! And now I'm feeling the rush to get everything back on track, and back to normal! Since it's been a while since my last post, I thought it best to start off by playing a little catch up!
Let's see where to begin? The holidays for us were great but a little bittersweet! As soon as Chris got out of school for Christmas break we packed up and headed out to Utah to visit our friends and family. We had so much fun! We tried so hard to cram in visiting all of our friends and family but there is never enough time! We did get to visit most of our friends up in Logan and our family, we even got to crash a christmas party and play a Logan version of Amazing Race...that was a blast! ( We even managed to get kicked out of Walmart...a story for another post)I am a little bummed that I did miss out on visiting one of my college friends from Logan...we're always missing each other when I visit....Hopefully next trip up we can finally get together! The kids had a blast with Grandpa Gary, Grandma Leslie, Uncle Daniel and Spencer, and aunt Carli! We had fun down in centerville with Grandma Susie and everyone!
We did manage to cram in a few Christmas parties too. (5 to be exact). One of our favorite ones was the annual friends party that Chris's high school buddies have every year! It is always so much fun to get all Chris's old friends together and to hear the stories and see all their cute families! I hope that we will be able to make the friends party next year...Jamie that's you remember! Sadly we headed back home to meet Santa on Christmas Eve, it was sad to leave! Unfortunately we left with three sick kids who annoyed Ronnie Brewer who was on our flight and seated directly behind us, for the entire flight! (There went our chances for an autograph)
All in all we had so much fun, and we left wishing we didn't have to go! It's so hard to be away from all of our Utah friends and family! The kids had so much fun with their family and with their buddy Kenzie! Luckily we did get some news that we may be headed back up that way in June for a family event, and this time we're hoping to stay a little longer!
Super Funny Kids Quotes!
New Quotes.:
I asked the kids if they wanted mommy to have another baby? They said yes so I asked Lilli if she would want a little brother, to which she replied, "We already have a little brother...it's over there."
Carson and I were playing Go Fish and as usual he beat me pretty bad ;), he quickly ran to tell daddy, "I cleaned the foor with mommy!"
I plan out the dinners for the month on a calander in the kitchen and Friday's are always pizza days. A few Friday's ago Carson was so excited ALL day for Pizza. He kept asking if it was time yet, I kept telling him it wasn't pizza time yet and finally when Chris got home from work Carson ran up to him and asked, "Daddy, NOW is it Pizza O'clock?" (translation, "is it Pizza time yet)
On the Fourth of July Chris and I took the kids to see the fireworks show and we were eager to see what Landon's reaction would be to them. As soon as they started, he got a little startled but it quickly turned to excitement and then he would point to them and say "POPCORN!"
We often drive by the new Cowboys stadium and Carson will ask about it we'll tell him it's where the Cowboys play football...the other day we went there to drop Chris and a few of my brothers off to watch a soccer game, and Carson asked about what they were going to watch, I said soccer this time not football. A week later at church when we were walking the halls Carson asks about the pictures of the Temples on the wall so we'll tell him they are Temples and explain about them and he turns to us and asks, "But what about the soccer Temple? Where's the picture of the soccer Temple?" (it's a BIG stadium and I guess to him it looked like it should be on the wall of Temples.)
We were going grocery shopping the other day, Carson asked where we were going and I told him to the food store. Right then we passed McDonalds and he asks me, "At McDonalds they sell food right?" I said yes and he asks, "If they sell food there, then it's a food store right?" I again say yes I suppose so, and he says, "Well if it's a food store, then maybe we should go there this time."
When we were in Utah Uncle Daniel would take the kids out on the trampoline every now and then. Once they were out there and Lilli was bothered that Carson was jummping and bouncing her all around so she tells him, Carson stop, you're making me bounce and Carson replied, "that's not my problem." (A little rude.)
We went to lunch one day to Paradise bakery and Chris and I got a bowl of creamy potato soup. We sat down started eating and the kids started inquiring about our soup. We said it was potato soup with cheese...Carson shoot up and said to Chris, "That sounds like my kind of soup!" (We were laughing hysterically!)

We very much enjoyed seeing you too! You definitely need to blog about the kicked out of Wal-mart story. Ha ha. It wouldn't have to do with your kids would it?
