I guess the snow is still good for something

Wyatt and his friend Jeremy just came in the house cracking up. I guess they were just hanging outside and drinking a red cream soda and decided to write something in the snow with it. How sweet, he thought of me. Funny kid.

The boys want a new boat!

We went to the boat show yesterday to dream. It was a lot of fun. We met up with our friends Sharif and Danielle. There are so many amazing boats... we just want one of them. It's crazy. Since Mike and I have been married, we've always had a boat, except for the last couple of years we haven't. Wyatt and Hayden are at the age right now that we really need one again. It's such a fun family thing. So, the coolest part of the night was when we were checking out the Nautiques (our dream boat). Their best pro rider, Shaun Murray was there! They gave us all t-shirts, and then he signed them for us. How lucky are we? Mike was able to sneak in a picture with his phone, so here it is.

Smart Little Hayden

Yesterday Hayden got out one of his Christmas presents that he hadn't opened yet. It was a megablocks toy that you had to put together. As he started to assemble, I came and sat next to him thinking I could help. Wrong. Those things are freakin' hard! Anyway, I was amazed. He did the whole thing all by himself. There were so many pieces, and you had to put them together the right way or it wouldn't work. The kid has patience. I was getting frustrated just watching him. The photos are the finished project. What a smartie pants.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Tristan is so big now, he eats by himself... and does a great job I might add.

Wyatt, as cool as ever.

Hayden got a puppet a while back. His name is Dr. Moody. We all get a kick out of him.

Mom invited us all over for dinner on Valentine's day. We haven't all been together since Christmas, so it was fun. She made manwiches, and they were really good. The dessert she made was the best part though! They were heart shaped puff pastries with a yummy vanilla cream filling, and rasberry sauce was drizzled on top... mmmmm (dang, I should have taken a picture)! Oh well, thanks Mom!

Flashback Monday

This was at Lake Powell with the Rasmussen kids. That was such a fun trip!

4th of July, 2004

I just was looking through some old pictures on my computer. These were all taken in 2004. It hasn't even been quite 4 years, but it feels like a decade! I can't believe how little they are. Hayden was only 5 years old. Anyway, I thought some of you might enjoy this like I did. Oh, and the dad sign was one of 4 pictures that said "Dad, you're the best!". They did it for Father's Day that year.

Hannah Montana in 3D

Harlee's new haircut is sooo cute!

Troy said he could have soda because it was a "special occasion"

Patrece and I got tickets to the Hannah Montana 3D Movie a couple months ago, and we went last night. I got 3 tickets. One for me, Wyatt and Hayden. Wyatt told me right away that he wouldn't be caught dead there, so I told Hayden he could invite a friend. He decided to bring Troy. Troy was so cute! In the middle of the movie, all the kids started going down to the front of the theater to dance. Our kids were shy at first, but Donovan and Taylor took the lead and joined in the fun. The rest of the kids soon followed. They were really getting their groove on. Troy even did the worm! It was a really fun night and we even got to eat at Bajio Grill... What can top that? :)
