Girls Night Out

Last week we had our annual gift exchange. I LOVE these girls. Lisa and Tori all announced they are PREGNANT!!!!

2010 In Review

This year has been full of fun things we have done as a family! The kids are doing great and enjoying everyday life. We took the kids on a family vacation to Disneyland and also took them camping. The holidays were great and everyone got spoiled!

Emmy started preschool this year and is loving it! She can write her name and is trying to start reading. She loves playing with her dolls, reading scriptures and dancing. She has had 2 dance performances this year and gets better with every lesson she takes. She is a great big sister and loves to give Jackson kisses even if they are not wanted. She is a great helper and is always happy. We look froward to watching her learn more. She always asks if we can go back to Disneyland so that may be in the cards again this year.

Jackson is ALL BOY!!! He loves to play ball, wrestle and all the other things boys like to do. He has been walking since he was 10 months and always lets you know what he wants. He is starting to talk . His favorite word to say is football. He likes to give kisses and LOVES dogs. We look froward to him learning more words, getting more stable with walking, going into a big boy bed and so much more in 2011

Matt and I have also had a great year! We recently took a week cruise together as a couple and LOVED LOVED LOVED every minute of it! Matt has been busy at work. His company merged this year and he has had to put in alot of hours. Matt likes going working out during lunch, playing basketball, playing Madden Football and so much more. I have been busy being a mom this year. I broke my neck this summer but am back to normal. I also have lost 15 pounds and am happy to say I weigh 7 pounds less then I did in high school! We look forward to Matt getting Lasik January 12th!!! Taking a fun family vacation, Teisha going to Seattle and whatever else 2011 brings! Here is to a good year!!!

Snow Day

While building the snowoman Jackson was not very happy!

Emmy loves the snowoman because it has her same hair

Today it snowed and the kids wanted to go out and play. It only lasted about 15 min because Jackson was not very happy but Emmy had a blast! We always build the same snowoman and Emmy thinks it is a blast because she has her same hair.

Merry Christmas

Even more SPOILED
Emmy playing dress up 5 min after waking up :)
He is such a little tough guy!
Christmas was so much fun this year! Emmy was so excited she could hardly stand it and Jackson kept saying "WOW!" when he woke up and saw all his gifts. I have not seen Emmy since yesterday. She has not left her dollhouse! Jackson LOVES his little ATV. He does not steer very well but is great at making it run into walls.

This year was busy as usual but we had a blast! I am so grateful for the Christmas season and for Jesus Christ!

Merry Christmas to all!!!

Christmas Time Is Here!

Rocketts!
Matt and I decided to take Emmy on a mommy, daddy date. She LOVED the Rocketts and has been dancing like them for weeks now. I am so glad she is in our life! She is such a blessing :)
Festival of Trees Dance Performance

Emmy also had her dance performance at The Festival of Trees. She did a Grinch dance and was AMAZING :)

Visiting Santa at the Mall and the Merry go Round

The older my kids get the more fun they are. Last week we decided to take the kids to the mall and visit Santa (sorry no pictures of Santa:( I'm cheap) Both my kids were just amazed! Emmy was so excited to see Santa and Jackson as usual was happy as could be. They both told Santa what they wanted. Emmy wants the 7 princess barbie doll set and Jackson wants a ball :)

Ugly Sweater Party

I love my neighbors SO much!!! When we moved in 3 years ago I would pray every night that I would find not just friends but true friends. 3 years later I can not believe how many amazing people I have met and how many true friends I really do have! I LOVE my friends and neighbors SO SO SO much! They are a blessing and help to me everyday. I am so glad I have girls I can talk,shop,cry and laugh with!

Christmas time is so wonderful! I love the spirit that is all around and all the fun activities we get to do as a family. I am SO grateful to my father in Heaven for all that he has given me!
