Cookies and a Bridal Shower...

 I won these homemade football oreo cookies from Cravings today, they are so yummy. Dawnese and I also drove down to Ephraim to go to Jenni's bridal shower, so fun to all be together again!

Movie with Cousins...

Today we took all the kiddos to see Night at the Museum:  Secret of the Tomb. It wasn't the best movie, and Cole ended up falling asleep on their dirty floors...

This Kid...

This kid never ceases to amaze me!

Valentine's Goodies...

So this happened today...

Today...

 Cole and Carter did some serious block building today for Angry Bird levels. Gracie fell asleep at the table while I was helping Jace with his homework.

Special Blankets...

 Got pictures of the kiddos with their special blankets that their Great Aunt JoAnn made for them.

Lipstick...

Gracie had me put some lipstick on her, and then she said that she was ready for daddy to take her to the ball!

Old Spaghetti Factory...

Tonight we went to dinner with our friends the Heiner's at the Old Spaghetti Factory. The kids loved that a balloon artist was there. Gracie got Rapunzel, Cole a red Angry Bird and Jace got Pikachu! 

Best.Balloons.Ever!

Farm Country...

 Today Justin and I took the kids to Farm Country. We received a Thanksgiving Point Pass for Christmas from Ed and Julie, and we have been so excited to use it. Today was the lucky first day! The kids loved that they could go on more then one pony ride. They loved the wagon ride and playing in the market area.

Valentine's in the Making...

Just working on some Valentine's...

Late Over...

The kids had a late over night with the Johnson's. 6 of the cutest kids I know.

Fort...

 Justin helped the kids make this awesome fort a week or two ago. The kids have loved sleeping in it, as they are tonight!

Date Night For 2...

 Tonight Jamie and I headed to Date Night for 2. Justin already had plans, so I asked my sister Jamie to be my date. We ate first, fettuccine alfredo, blueberry salad, garlic bread and marbled red velvet cake, yummy! After we spent the next two hours painting our masterpieces. It was such a fun night! I have always loved Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh! Now I just need to find a frame for it so I can hang it.

1st Lost Tooth...

Jace lost his first tooth last night. He noticed it was wiggly, and 10 seconds later it was out. Quick and easy, such a pro. He was so excited that the tooth fairy left him a dollar too!

Puzzles...

 Today was a puzzle kind of day...yes, they have to have their own day!

Gingerbread...

 Today was filled with all sorts of gingerbread making. First Gracie, Cole and I made a gingerbread man, then tonight for FHE we all made a gingerbread house. The kids love eating the frosting at the end!

Angry Bird Lover...

Cole still loves playing Angry Birds and builds the coolest levels!

Aunt Shalane...

Shalane stopped in tonight and of course Gracie tried to get all of her attention. A fun stroller ride in the stroller my dad made for Gracie.

Church...

I had to snap a shot of my kids on our way to church. Gracie is now a Sunbeam, crazy! Cole is no longer a Sunbeam, he is in the CTR 4 class. And I believe Jace is in the CTR 6 class. Gracie and Cole struggled a little in the beginning but they all ended up loving their classes!
