~The mustache is back~

I have recently discovered these great smoothies! They are so yummy and easy. They are by yoplait and you can get them by the frozen fruit section at your store. We love them. The boys included.

Eyan had a wonderful mustache from it and then some.

Cahlin decided that it was cool and so he made one for himself also. He also decided that he needed to take his shirt off so it didn't get dirty too. What crazy and silly boys we have!!

Fun things

Eyan has started to paint in the last little while. This picture is of his first time. He just loved it and had a great time mixing colors. With Cahlin I was SO crazy about him not mixing the colors. Now, I just say have fun!!

Cahlin was helping make cookies the other night and needed a picture taken of him. He's so much fun to cook with. He loves so help make cookies. He's very good at working the Kitchen Aid!

~*Dance tunes*~

I've had so many comments about the music on our blog. I feel I need to explain and say thank you!!! I LOVE fun music! Especially if it has a great beat. Kevin often thinks I'm weird for the songs I put up. They don't often pertain to family and our marriage.. but I just can't help myself when I love a song! I think it has something to do with my dancing background, it bread sp? some kind of crazy person in me. But I will continue to put up fun get the feeling that you just wanna dance music up! I'm glad you can all enjoy it!!! I love you all!!

Oh and if you find you don't like a song when it first starts just give it the chance to get ya going! :)

Another year gone....

I am so behind. I used to be the queen of blogging and now ... not so much. It's a sad day and I've realized lately that I really need to get back on top of it! I have about a million pages that I have to scrap for my kids. I usually do a year end page of both of them. Here's this years pictures. I love my kids! They are so cute and fun. It makes me sad to see how different they are from last year.2009 was a hard year for our family. Granted we had some good times this year but mostly it was hard. I am always sugar coating things for people and I actually kinda feel like being honest. Although we have hard times I believe that it makes us stronger and the Lord knows how to help us cope and become better people. That's all I can hope for is for the strength to make it another day, month, year.

My hope for 2010 is that it is better. I'm not asking for much just better. I know the Lord will bless us and that we can get through our trials. I love my family and I'm excited to see the happy adventures that we might see this year.

New Years Fun!

New Years day both Pocatello and Idaho Falls woke up to lots of brand new heavy snow! We were planning on sledding with the Desmonds and decided that the best snow would be in Idaho Falls. So, we packed up and headed out! We had a BLAST! The sledding was great. And so was the company!

Dale and Kevin built this little jump and had a great time with it. Here is some great footage of what they did with it... trust me you don't want to miss these videos....

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was great!! We had a ton of fun with the boys. Cahlin had a blast and couldn't open up his things fast enough. Eyan on the other hand was very distracted. The first toy was the best of all until we finally got him to open another one and then the next would be the best thing ever and the first would be ditched along the side! We are so thankful to our family members who helped make our Christmas so special and bright! We love you so much! After presents we all sat down to my mom's famous Christmas morning breakfast. She makes this awesome Christmas souffle ( when I was a kid I refused to eat it) makes orange rolls, cuts oranges and we have egg nog! I love it! I love Christmas! Now that I'm finally getting around to writing about it I'm finding that I'm sad it's over already. Here's some pics and videos for you all to enjoy!

Here's a video of Cahlin and Eyan right when they came out for the morning. For those of you that don't know, Cahlin has had this little stuffed Geraffe that he has had since he was born. His name is Jeffery. About 6 months ago, Cahlin had lost Jeffery number 2. When he sat on Santa's lap this year the only thing he requested was a new Jeffery. I have to admit it made my heart hurt, I realized that he had been missing him this whole entire time. So, Santa delivered and Cahlin got a new Jeffery! This video shows his reaction. It's very special! Enjoy!

Ok so after 2 very long tries the video won't load. Sorry! :) anyways, enjoy the story!

Dear Santa....

We had such a great time over Christmas! We went up to my mom's house so that they wouldn't have an empty house on Christmas and I have to say, I enjoyed it so much! On Christmas Eve we all got together with my mom's family and had a big family dinner. It was fun and there was tons of yummy food! After the party we went back to my mom's house and opened our Christmas Eve gifts. The boys opened up jammies. Of course! I was also given jammies! So much fun! Of course we also had to write Santa a letter telling him about his cookies and the carrots for his reindeer but we made the cookies as well! I was a cheap mom this year and I bought Pillsbury cookie dough! :) Don't tell anyone! I love Christmas and being closer to our family. I love all of them so much! Merry late Christmas everyone!!
