:St. Patty's Day:


So cute, but such a stinker!!

This year we had a GREEN dinner with my sister-in-law and her cute boys. Since my bro is working his busy season we like to hang out a lot so they don't get too bored. They came over and we cooked us up some delish grub which consisted of green noodles with chicken and alfredo sauce, fresh green beans, green jello, lemon lime Kool-Aid, chips and guac, and rainbow cupcakes. Aren't we festive:)

Will and Tate lovin it:)

Hal and Hais eatin' up some yummies

I made RAINBOW cupcakes. Will was excited to see the colors inside.

The above lil stinker ruined my surprise by 1) coming in on me while making them and 2)telling her cousins "our secret"

Can't get much cuter

SO YUMMY!! The things we have to make to get our kids to eat their dinner.

Can't forget that this cute lil boy was there too.

President's Day


Brad had President's Day off so we decided to do some fun things as a family. Since we bought the "Passes of all Passes" from Seven Peaks and Trafalga we chose to take advantage of them.

We went MiNi GoLfInG!! The girls had fun, but Haisley soon lost interest. Maybe the 18 holes was a bit too much.

She had her own way of golfing and hitting the ball.

Halle improved a ton through the 18 holes. At times she would get frustrated and pick her ball up and place it where ever she wanted:)

We "love" spending time as a family- especially taking family pics!!

Happy New Year!!


Happy New Year- from our family to yours!!!

This year I am feeling very positive about the changes I am going to make. I really hope I can say that later this week:) Every year I try to make resolutions and most of the time I really try to keep them. Here are some for this year:)
*Live on a budget; maybe my husband helped me with this one
*Exercise more; run 2 marathons
*Read my scriptures DAILY!!
*Spend more one-on-one time with my girls
*Live in the moment; don't live for the next BIG thing
***WISH ME LUCK cuz I'm gonna need it***

Happy Holidays!!


Halle had her Christmas Program for Preschool:) She did such a good job. She was incredibly nervous to sit on HIS lap, but after watching EVERY SINGLE PERSON in her class go, she decided it wouldn't be THAT scary. He was the BEST Santa I have ever seen:)

Cute family photo!!

Every year our family goes to the Festival of Trees. The girlies enjoyed their time at the Kids Corner making crafts (or just buying them). Haisley was freaked out by the clown making the balloons. **What am I raising, a bunch of scaredy cats?**

It's always crazy busy there, but I love looking at all the trees. Some people have awesome creativity. I want some of it!!

Last year we learned from experience that it is better to hit the Kids Corner first so that your child doesn't cry the whole time because she wants a wand. Here they are first thing:)

continued!!


The girls absolutely loved playing out in the snow and making a "snowman"

They got a brilliant idea that it shouldn't be a "snowman" at our house- they wanted a "snowgirl." So I had to go inside and make a cute bow for her:)


We enjoyed some family time at the Hoen Cabin for a few days.
