Happy Valentine's Day!

Every year, we make heart shaped sugar cookies for Valentines Day. Only once a year. Just the simple heart shaped pink frosting little sprinkled sugar cookies. So this year we got to do it with Kyle, Serene and Brigham. It was just a last minute, thrown together thing, but it was fun. I just decided to blog, since I haven't for a while, and then I thought, "Oh. I guess I should have taken pictures. Oh well." So, no pictures for you!----A little update on what's been going on at our house. Dale went back out to Atlanta, but surprisingly the shortest trip ever, only 4 days! I just had a birthday and went out for dinner at Magelby's with mom and Erine. It was pretty fun and Delicious! Sid scored 2 goals in indoor soccer, (now I owe her $1.20, SHOOT!) and is currently the beehive president. Cole had a pinewood derby, and won the most souped up car. Rett is in preschool, and loves puzzles more than anything, but wrestling. Watching the same movies over and over. Charles (the family hamster) is hanging on by love, dealing with 2 cists on his belly. Our crazy little fam is still living on fourth south, me hoping to find a new house sometime soon. KEEP DREAMING!-- Happy Valentines day everyone!

Choo-Choo!

2 Friday's ago, (see that's how bad I am at blogging) me and Dale suprised the kids with a visit to the model train show down at Thanksgiving Point. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a show with toy trains (the fragile ones) that run on a track with amazing scenery behind it. Anyway, we were so impressed with the backgrounds! One was made all out of lego's! It was probably bigger than my room! Another was like a scavenger hunt. You had to find all these little things like Bella, Edward and Jacob. And a port-a-potty. Cole loved it! Sid just adored the itsy-bitsy people. Rett liked the trains of course especially the one that YOU got to drive!

Cole looks so happy here right?!

The Campout

This is going to make you laugh. Saturday night- Sid insisted on sleeping out in the Scamper. So Dale gave in which made Cole want to. Rett couldn't because he has had a really bad cough. And me, well I will absoulutly not. Untill we are camping. Why would I if I have a nice warm bed right next door? Sunday night- Rett felt left out, so him and Sid slept out there. Dale couldn't because he had to work on Monday. Cole was going to, but he came to the dark side with me. Well, After watching many episodes of Curious George, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid on a small little T.V., they finally fell asleep. The cool thing was, they slept in untill 9:00! But hey! That is really good for a kid that gets up at 7:30 on the weekends!

Next stop Kauai, Hawaii!

This year, we took a Christmas vacation to Hawaii thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Anderson . They greeted us with lei's as we walked off the plane into the humidity . My hair wasn't going to like this, but my skin sure would!

The beaches were so much fun, we went to one every day! Not to mention the amazing sunsets.

The first night, we went to the first beach which was Hanalay Bay. We couldn't resist, so we got in the water with our clothes on. As we walked down the beach, we came across a sandman. Yep a snowman made out of sand. I guess this is the Hawaiian lifestyle!

I love my boys!

On Christmas eve, we had a 5 course meal in honor of Scott and Angle's wedding.

We had a great Christmas we will never forget. The luau's with the fire dancers, the fun, the houses with trash filled carports, the soft feet, the family and the mean old lady on the plane ride.

Graham Cracker Houses

It's gingerbread time! But since I don't know how to make gingerbread, we're going to use graham crackers!

This is Cole's house,

Sid made a pooping reindeer.

Happy Holidays!
