Me and Jentri

Ok, I know the picture is a little blurry, sorry about that (thanks for taking the pic Alyssa :) ). But I thought it was a cute picture and I actually didn't mind me being in it for a change.

She is my sidekick, for 5 years we did everything together. I really missed her when she went to school for a full day starting this year.

Jentri is such a sweet child, and so easy going. Her favorite thing to do when I am sad or not in the best mood is sing to me. She will sing "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You" from Rod Stewart and of course it almost always brings tears to my eyes and I am happy.

I just had to share this with you :)

Her she is, the star of the day! Stokley Cienna born January 12th at 8:01 pm. She weighed 6 lbs 15 oz 19 1/2 inches long. She is beautiful! Congrats to mom and baby ;)

Flash Game

A couple of weeks ago there was an assembly at the school. It was with the Flash basketball players from UVU. they gave out free tickets to a game and Jentri really wanted to go. While we were there, one of the dancers came to Jentri and asked her if she wanted to go dance with them at half time. She said yes, and here are some pics.

After she was done dancing the Chicken dance at half time

You can see her jacket above the guy in middle

Trying to get a few more kids to dance with them

They gave out noise sticks for when we made a basket

Snow, Snow and more snow!

The first part of the year was filled with SNOW!! WOOHOO!! I love it! Ken wasn't too fond of it since he was the one to shovel it all.

Building a wall between us and the neighbors

Our tree out front

Down the front walkway

Our wall again and the mailboxes

A nice clean driveway, for a few minutes at least

New Years Eve

For New Years Eve, Robin, Andy and Alyssa came over. We played Scene It Movies and had a hot fudge cake I made. Then we watched Evolution. After the movie we watched the ball drop in time Square and went out to light fireworks. We had a lot of fun laughed till we peed our pants as usual!

Linner with Grandma Mower

For Christmas Grandma Mower wanted to get all of us together. We all met at Los Hermonos in Lindon for a "linner" It was yummy!!

Zeplin and the snow

Zeplin loves the snow and every time it snows, she will go out and play ball all by herself. She will find where she "hide" her ball, through it up in the air and dive for it in the snow. If we would let her stay outside, she would be out there for hours! It is so funny to watch her.

She is looking for where she hide it last time she was outside.

Still looking, but getting closer

She found it! Now she is waiting for it to come down after throwing it up in the air.

Looking for it again

Waiting for it to land again

PRESENTS!!

Christian has wanted a Simpson tie for church. He was happy even though he may not look like it. this is about the only picture I have of him for Christmas, he hates pictures he says. So I take them few and far in between.
