Lost Teeth

In the last couple of weeks Jacey has finally lost her bottom two front teeth, she was so excited to loose them and get money from the tooth fairy! Sorry there are no pictures, because I think loose teeth and missing teeth are really gross therefore I won't take pictures, but Just for fun here is a picture of my sweet girl!

New Calling

I finally got a new calling today, I was called to be on the Relief Society Board helping with the Humanitarian Projects, I am really excited to finally have a calling, even though I miss the Young Women terribly.

Spring break

The weather is making spring break not so much fun at our house, it has been too cold to go out and play, and today it is raining.

The boys spent yesterday painting their new bedrooms. (hopefully they will be all ready to move into before the week is over!)

Today the boys went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part One, while the girls and I did some retail therapy!

Tomorrow hopefully we will finish up painting the boys room, Josh also has an eye appointment maybe after it's over he will be able to see again!

I think this week will also be filled with video games, DVDs and hopefully the weather will get better, and there will also be bike riding and trampoline jumping!

Family Fun Night

Joe has been traveling quite a bit the last little while for work, so we decided that we needed to spend some good quality time together as a family, last night we took the kids out bowling and to dinner, followed by a trip to Hastings to get some new family movies. (We love the buy 2 get one for $1 sale that Hastings run on all of their previously viewed movies).

We had our same bit of drama that we all ways have with Jacey, she is so scared to try new things that she always has a bit of a melt down before we start, but about half way through the game, she told me that bowling was a lot more fun than rollerskating (I think Jena may disagree with her on that!) In the end I think that everyone had a really good time, Jakob, Joe and I all ended with a three way tie!

Now for your viewing pleasure here are some pictures from our bowling adventure, enjoy!

Craft Project

Every once in a while I get the urge to be crafty, and yesterday was one of those days, so I did a little searching (I mean blog stalking) and found this cute in expensive project.

This is what I made today:

They are for holding hair bows, and having two girls in the house we have lots of hair bows! The nice thing about this project was that it was pretty much free to make because I had all the stuff to make them at home!

The needed supplies are:

8x10 photo frames

ribbon

and a hot glue gun

The one with the pink ribbon is for Jacey, and the one with the purple ribbon is for Jena.

for your viewing pleasure

Polly put the kettle on, or as Jena sings it Holly Put the kettle on!

This little girl provides us with hours and hours of entertainment!

You Know it's time to get your child's eyes checked when....

You are driving along I-15 and there are hundreds of deer out the passenger side of the van and your 11 year old can't see any of them.

We were driving home from a quick trip to Utah last night, and there were hundreds of deer on the mountain, we kept pointing them out to the kids every time we would see a heard of them and Josh kept saying "where, I can't see them."

We finally had to pull off at the rest stop, because there were some along the rest stop road, so that Josh could see them!

I guess it is time to take him in to have his eyes checked. It hasn't even been a year yet, but I have been thinking about taking him any way because he is always squinting, and this just confirmed my theory that his eyes have changed again. (We wanted to wait until closer to back to school in the fall because he wants contact lenses, but I don't think we had better wait much longer!)

Beautiful

These showed up yesterday afternoon, aren't they beautiful!

Thanks Honey!

14 years ago today

I was in the Logan Temple Marrying my Eternal Sweetheart!

Happy Anniversary Honey! I Love You!

Keeping Busy

We have been keeping busy the last few days, the boys are moving to their own rooms in the basement, so we have been busy cleaning, organizing (trying anyway!) and beginning to paint! Hopefully in the next week or so they will get moved to the basement, and we can get Jacey moved to her new room, and life will get back to normal!

I was feeling a little crafty yesterday so.....

I made these! Thank you to my friend Joanie for helping me cut down the wood to the size I needed!

I forgot how not fun...

Potty training is!

We decided Sunday Night after Jena had taken off a stinky diaper all by herself that it was time to potty train.

She actually isn't doing too bad, we have only had a couple of accidents, but I'm not ready to take her out in public without a diaper on and she still has to sleep in one, but maybe in the next week or so we will be ready to be with out diapers for good!

Happy Birthday Joe

Just wanted you to know how much I love you! Happy Birthday!

Feeling sad

I got released from my calling as the Young Women Secretary yesterday. I have really struggled with the idea of being released since the Bishop called me in to tell me that they were going to release me.

I have really enjoyed being in the Young Women program and getting to know the girls that are in my ward.

I am feeling really sad because I feel like Young Women is all I know, I have had a calling in the Young Women Program since before Jacey was born (she will be 8 this year).

I am really afraid of what the new calling is going to be, I really don't want to be a primary teacher, but if that is where they need me then that is where I will be. I am really hoping that they are going to let me be an adult for a while. It has been a long time since I have been in Relief Society, and I am thinking that is where I would really like to be able to spend some time.

Rollerskating Fun

Last Night was our ward rollerskating party, who knew Jena would have so much fun skating. I think she had the most fun of everyone!
