Silly Boys

These silly boys found some

little flower clips and this is the result...

"Fin", Redd, and "Jack" He struggles with names a little.

He usually gets Jax right, but Griffin

has been shortened to "Fin"

I spend a lot of time on my days off at my mom's and as soon as I tell Redd we are going to Granny's he says "Jax?" He loves to play with the big boys. PS: If you are interested.. I added a back-dated Valentine Post

Young Women's Project

My latest calling at Church is

the Young Women's 2nd couselor.

Our bishop has given the youth

in our ward the challenge of reading

the Book of Mormon by August.

So for our activity we decided to

let the girls cover their own

Book of Mormon.

Here is the sample...

I bought a fancy Book of Mormon at my aunt's boutique about a year ago, in hopes I would be better about reading it. I think our knock off version is just as cute & a lot cheaper! Hopefully the Young Women love it and will be better about reading their scriptures too!

Valentine's Day

Redd got his first Valentine Card

in the mail from Grandma Bonnie

and Grandpa Jon!I put the money on the fridge

and he was so mad at me,

he kept saying.. mine!

Later, when he got some money

from Grandma Jackie, he

even said.."My money!" Who does that? Little punk!

He loved his card so much, he carried it around for the next few days, until it looked like this...

In Nursery, he colored a cute card for us and got a sucker from his leaders. We had given him a Cars coloring book, and he went to town with the sucker and the markers!!

(I didn't want his shirt all nasty, so we took it off.. good thing, there was sucker everywhere)

At my mom’s house we had a Valentine Heart Hunt, and the kids played a game of Don’t Eat Cupid!

Happy Valentine's Day

I got a little crafty this year and made

the most delightful chocolate cupcakes

for Redd to give to his cousins for

Valentine's. They have been requested

a few times lately, so I made enough to

give all the aunts and uncles as well.

I think they turned out pretty cute,

if I do say so myself!

Goodbye Cavy!

Judd got in an accident on February 4th

that totaled our Cavalier.

A guy pulled out in front of

him and there was nowhere for him

to go to avoid the accident.

Luckily no one was hurt.

Sadly, it was not the car

that had been giving us problems.

But good for me, the purchase of a new car

will come sooner than later.Just sad I didn't even get to drive her one last time!

Super Bowl

Every year we have a big party at my

mom's house for Super Bowl.

This year was no different, a house

full of people we love! What a fun day!

The little littles watched a movie in the other room.Ava, Drew, Redd, Cooper, Mavrick, Laynee, Berkley

Lots of food, talking, cheering, and rewinding.

Nice face Brian

The big littles played down stairs in the playroomDallin, Billy, Jax, Jadon, Berkely, Cord

We spent the second half of the game

at Judd's parent's house, it was a

lot quieter so we could actually hear the TV.

Redd's Randomness

Last week I got a text message from

Judd's brother Bart, telling me to

update my blog or put Redd on a plane.

There were a few times I was tempted to

buy him a ticket....

This is for you Bart...Redd has a few favorite words,

one is "Utes" and another is "Bootball"

Ready for a haircut!

Redd was sick a few weeks ago and

we think he might have asthma.

He was a grumpy little butt for a few days!

He also learned that he ABSOLUTELY

hates the doctor.

Gotta love when this happens!

Judd got me these super cozy socks

for Christmas & Redd keeps

finding them & putting them on.

He thinks he's so cute!

He has also had a small obsession with

shoes. First thing in the morning,

he comes out with them and says

"shoes, shoes" until you put them on.

Aren't they so cute though?

Judd's mom got him some Converse for Christmas.

He also loves to take everything out of his

closet. The other day he took all of the

diapers out of the box and brought the box

into the living room to play with.

And apparently now, I am not allowed to

take a shower. Because when I get out,

this is what I find....

A whole box of Q-tips on my living room floor.

And lucky for me, he can get into the pantry.

(Notice the box of cereal.)

We went to a Fremont basketball game and

Redd danced every time the band

played a song. But, by the end of the game,

he got a little bored and found a magazine to read!

After the game he found his cousins!!

Chloe and Ava danced at halftime and did an

excellent job!
