Neglected Blog!

Once the kids are out of school, I WILL update my blog!  It is a goal of mine!  Lots of fun stuff has happened in the last couple of months!

Valentine's Day

We had a great Valentine's Day in our family! The Sunday before we all dressed in our RED and I made a special RED dinner for us! I love holidays!

Everyone dressed in RED for church!

Love this picture of Hannah and Jaxon!

The gang!

Ah, Daddy's little girl!

We had treats ready for the kids when they woke up. It is a tradition we started when Ethan was a little boy and it has continued every year!

While all the boys were at school, Hannah and I got all dressed in our pink and red for the big day! Love her to pieces!

Tyler Karate!

Tyler has been wanting to do Karate forever now so we signed him up for a month course. Needless to say he LOVED it and is actually quite good at it!

He had to brake a board to get his white belt. Look at that smile!

Look at that high kick!

Getting his white belt.

During Karate practice!

He seriously is a natural at it and we are hoping to sign him up again for it!

Space Derby

Ethan and Tyler have some great Cub Scout leaders and they put together a Space Derby for the boys.

They had never done one before so it was super fun for the boys to make their rockets.

Yummy treats!

Here they are with their rockets! SO FUN!!!

Ethan Science Fair

The 5th and 6th graders at Ethan's school were required to do a science project for the Science Fair and Ethan had a lot of fun doing the project with his dad. Science is Ethan's favorite subject so as he got more involved, the more fun he had!

He didn't win any prizes but we were so proud of him!

Wordless Wednesday!

Temple Square Lights

While Paul's family was in town, we took a trip to Salt Lake to see the lights at Temple Square. It was a beautiful night, and everyone had such a great time!

Paul and 2 of his brothers!

Love family!

Daddy's little girl!

Christmas

It's time for me to do a little bit of catch up. I am way behind. So here is a little bit of Christmas. We spent it at Paul's parents' house since all of Paul's siblings were in town.

This was Christmas Eve. We sang songs, read the Christmas story, the kids did a fun Christmas talent show and then the cousins did a gift exchange.

Christmas morning!

I got Paul a new wedding band.

Paul got me an iPad.

The big boys got BB guns.

Hannah and her scooter.

Ethan got an electric scooter.

Tyler and Joshua got 3Ds'.

Jaxon got a pad which he calls his iPad.

All the kids waiting to go upstairs to see what Santa brought.

The loot!

A few nights before Christmas the kids decorated gingerbread houses with their cousins. We do it every year.

Christmas Eve dinner.

It was a wonderful Christmas!
