Beauty Sleep!

A few weeks ago we went shopping and Megan wanted to buy something with her own money. So we went into Clair's and we looked and looked for something she wanted. She saw these sleeping masks and picked one out for herself and Olivia. Well, it has been so funny. At first, they thought it was so fun to sleep in them. I got these cute pictures the first few nights. Then Megan kinda stopped wearing hers every night but Olivia insists on wearing hers every night. In fact, she will wake us up in the middle of the night if it comes off and she can't find it. Olivia is our sleeper! Her mask says "Leave Me Alone" it's true. This is our little one who prays to have a good sleep in and that no one will wake her up! It's hilarious!

Girls Just Want to Have Fun!

Brent took the girls with him on a road trip to St. George to pick up his truck that was in the shop there. He took the our girls and their cousin Zoe. He said they had a great time! They even stopped at Chuck-O-Rama to eat! (BLAAAA) My kids love that place. When he got home he said he had as much of Hannah Montana & The Jonas Brothers that he could possibly stand! Here are some cute pic's they took of themselves in the car!

Then, Then, Then

Where have the Holidays gone? It seems they just flew right by us! The past few weeks we have been soooo busy (I know everyone is busy)! We had Megan's 8th birthday, then shop, shop, then Christmas, then visit family for New Years, then Megans baptism ( which was so wonderful,thanks to everyone who came and supported her) then give a lesson in Relief Society, then back to work, and back to school (Yeah)! Wheeeewwww! Today is quiet at my house, a welcoming sound! I am just going to post some pictures of our lives over past few weeks! I hope everyone had a great New Year! My new Years resolution is to get our family pictures in albums!

Snow, Snow, Snow!

I know I am late posting my snow pictures! It was so fun to have it snow here in Vegas the week before Christmas! The kids had a ball playing in it! I thought it was so pretty and peaceful!

tHAnKSgivING!

WE HAD A GREAT THANKSGIVING. IT WAS NICE AND EASY! EVERY YEAR WE SWITCH OFF WITH EACHOTHERS FAMILIES. LAST YEAR WE WERE WITH MY FAMILY SO THIS YEAR WE SPENT IT WITH BRENT'S FAMILY. DINNER WAS EXCELLENT! GRANDMA TERRIE MAKES A GREAT TURKEY AND STUFFING DINNER. LESLIE MADE A GREAT GREEN BEAN CASAROLE ALSO. GRANDMA ALWAYS TAKES THE TIME TO TEACH THE GIRLS HOW TO MAKE ROUND-THE-FINGER ROLLS! FIRST YOU LAY OUT THE DOUGH, THEN SPREAD IT WITH CRISCO, THEN FOLD AND SPREAD, REPEATED 3 TIMES! THEN YOU TAKE A STRIP OF DOUGH AND ROLL IT AROUND YOU FINGER AND DIP IT IN BUTTER! YES, ANOTHER DIP INTO GREASE! THE FINISHED PRODUCT IS THE BEST ROLL YOU HAVE EVER EATEN! THIS YEAR I WANTED TO TELL EVERYONE HOW THANKFUL I WAS FOR THEM AND I HAD THE IDEA TO MAKE THANK YOU BOXES. EVERYONE WOULD WRITE A LITTLE THANK YOU TO EACH MEMBER OF THE FAMILY! IT WAS SO NEAT! EVERYONE TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE WHY THEY WERE THANKFUL FOR EACH MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. IN THE END WE HAD ABOUT 24'S THANKS YOU'S IN EACH FAMILY BOX. WE READ OURS FOR FAMILY HOME EVENING AND IT WAS REALLY SPECIAL TO HEAR A SWEET THANK YOU'S FROM EACH MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. WE WILL CHERISH IT FOREVER. AUNT LESLIE ALSO HAD OREO COOKIE TURKEY'S FOR THE KIDS TO MAKE! THEY WERE SO CUTE. NOW WE LOOK FORWARD TO CHRISTMAS! (IT'S ON IT'S WAY FAST!)

Busy, Busy Days!

I know, I know it has been so long since I have posted. It seems the last few weeks have been soooo crazy! Grandma and Grandpa Johnson had their anual "Fall-A-Sleep-Over" the kids had a great time and loved the prayer rocks and rockin' pj's they got! Brent and I took advantage of the night alone and we went out on the town! We went the see the show KA at the MGM. We went with our friends Sam and Vince. It was really good! Afterall, I love that kind of stuff! We enjoyed the night out together. Then...done, done, done... we came home and found our house was covered in toilet paper and saran wrap! We have a good idea of who did it and all Brent said was, "Whoever did this knows the scout 10 fold rule!" Which means, "Don't do anything to another scout unless your willing to get it back 10 fold!" So watch out! We never forget! We'll get you when you least expect it!

Trick~0~Treat

Halloween was a lot of fun this year! Olivia had her 5ht birthday and is so proud to finally be 5 years old. We went to eat with the family and Livvy opened some presents. It was to fun to see all the cousins in their costumes! Zane was not sure if he wanted to dress up this year. He waited until the last minute to decide. Then he decided he could not be anything silly and just wanted to be a goblin! Megan was a very cute Dorothy form the Wizard of Oz and Olivia was a darling Little Red Riding Hood! Of course I was a witch as always! Now Halloween is over and time to move on the Thanksgiving and Christmas! A wonderful time of year!
