What a weekend!

We had such an amazing weekend and the only strange part was that I spent it with my mom and grandma and Jason spent it with the kids. He has wanted to take the girls to Lehman Caves for a while and I have wanted to go to St. George for a while, so thanks to my very favorite aunt Shawna I took my mom and grandma to St. George and Jason took the kids to the cave. We had so much fun, the weather was nice and we spent a lot of time shopping, eating, and laughing! Jason said the weather was a little cold but the kids behaved themselves and really enjoyed the cave. Maybe next time we can go as a family but we sure had a lot of fun!!

daddy's happiest place on earth

Cabelas; the store with everything every man could possibly ever need. We don't go often partly because it's usually so busy and partly because dad would bankrupt us if we went more frequently. This time however it was not to crowded and we left with only a hat and some licorice? The kids had a bawl checkin out all the fish and different animals. I tell Jason all the time if we ever win the lottery he has first dibs on the shopping spree:)

Jr Jazz

Other than the 8 o'clock games on Saturday mornings (really who thinks that's ok?)I have enjoyed the girls playing Jr Jazz. Brooklyn has really gotten much better and seems to really be enjoying it. Her team won their game last Saturday and now play again this Friday, if they win they play again Saturday in the "finals". Halle and Shelby have also learned a lot, however, they don't have any desire to play again. They were the only girls on their team and I think that made it a little harder. But they had amazing coaches for both teams. I really admire and appreciate these guys who have volunteered their time and have crazy patience. I am a little sad that it's over.

BFF's

Cassidy has this little friend Sammy that she talks about all the time, she tells me how they are best friends, and loves to go to church cuz she knows she will be there. So she was over playing the other day and they put on these princess dresses and of course wanted pictures. It's funny because they look an awful lot alike and are two of the cutest little princesses I've ever seen.

The end result.

After almost two years and many many cankers, the train tracks (Sheramys words) are gone. I am so glad not to have to spend 20 min after each meal picking food out of my teeth. So here is the before and after.

Cass finally got her first hair cut. Mom had to give up on the long flowing mane for the time being. I have two friends who's little girls are the same age as Cassidy, and they have this thick beautiful hair down to their butts. Anyway I think it will just take a little longer for her hair to be healthy and long, and doesn't she look so cute with the little bob anyway.
I mentioned before that I got my braces off and I absolutely love it. If anyone in the area is looking for a good orthodontist try Dr. Horsley at Vine St Dental, he is the best!

Happy Holidays, yeah happy there over:)

I really hate to sound like a scrooge but ok I am, I admit it. I think I like Christmas less and less each year and that makes me sad. I want to love Christmas I really do, I just can't make it happen. We were very blessed this year to have been able to help out a few families that we know and I am so unbelievably grateful to be able to do that, I pray that my kids were as excited about that as I was. I guess what gets to me is all the hubub, ya know the running and running and worrying, all that good stuff. I was so glad though when it was all over and the kids had gone back to school and I got all my stuff put away and we went back to our routine.
So other than the fact that I got my braces off yesterday, all has been quiet and calm, just the way I like:)
(I did take some pictures of the whole Christmas experience and they are here for your enjoyment:)

I think I figured out my problem. I also think I will keep Blogging I really don't think I need one more thing to try and figure out!

Ok so you may have noticed that I haven't posted in a while and when I finally did I screwed the whole thing up when I was messing around with the background. Anyway if anyone knows how I can get my Layout button back on my dashboard let me know, all it says now is template and that doesn't get me where I need to be. Also leave me your blog addresses cuz those were all wiped out too:)
I am also thinking about doing away with the blog and doing a facebook page, let me know what you all think about that too. Thanks!
