Trip to Utah

2 weeks ago we had the opportunity to head down to Utah and go to our good friend Jeff's wedding reception. It was such a fun trip. Brian's friend from high school Justin came with us. We stayed with Brian's grandma and aunt, they have a park right across the street so that made for lots of fun, the faded picture below is of Brian's grandma and the girls playing, I took the picture from the front room window! We took the kids to a small zoo that was awesome. It was $1 per adult and $.5o per child. They had fun walking around and seeing the wildlife! Saturday before the reception in the evening we took the girls around Temple Square. We met up with my best friend from high school Melanie Bird and toured the visitor centers and caught up. We tried In and Out for the first time and had a great time at the reception. It was a super cool reception, after an hour Jeff and Alli changed and everyone played some soccer and volleyball. All sorts of fun and relaxed! After the reception we hit Sonic so Brian could catch up with another close friend from high school that now lives in Alaska. It was fun to see them catch up, I wish I would have thought to get all the guys in a picture at the reception. What a good trip though!

Slippery Fun!!

Just some fun the kids were having with the good old slip and slide and our wet trampoline. Brian got home from work and joined the fun sliding them down it and then Lily started a water fight with him. Lots of wet fun!

YAY! I Got A New Camera and Now I Can Post!

So I realize it has been since January since my last post but our camera has been lost/stolen for the past few months. Anyway I finally convinced Brian to get a new camera, his only stipulation was that it had to be a bigger camera so we wouldn't misplace it. Done! ;) Anyway here some fun things we have been up to!

I looked over at Autumn and founder watching Clifford like this. She cracks me up!

One of the girl's favorite things to do is to push the piano bench in front of the fish tank and tell fish stories about the fish. Cute!
Autumn and Jake, he is a month younger than her and they are so cute!

How many kids can fit in this hammock? Here there are 5 but sometimes more piled in!

Cloey loves getting her picture taken, you can't tell can you? Before the next picture she was standing in front of my friend for 5 minutes asking her to take her picture.

Water Fun!

We got a huge love sac bean bag a while ago and it is the funnest thing to snuggle up on!

This picture just makes me smile! Cute little girl!

First Field Trip!!

So today the preschool group the girls are in went on their first field trip to the local fire station! Both moms and kids learned a lot, we all had a good time! Here are some fun pictures from the happy event! Since Andrea and Abbie are in town they came along for the fun too! We have loved having them in town! We wish we all lived closer!

Lily and Cloey were a bit shy here!

And then here is Abbie, so excited to drive the big fire truck!

New Things!

So this week has been a very busy week, between work, remodeling our kitchen, normal house stuff, and getting ready for Brian's overnighter with the youth you would think that that was a lot. At least I did! Lily and Cloey both started a ballet class and preschool! It has been a fun change! I love watching them learn and grow! Here are some fun pictures of their first days!

I have to laugh, they were totally distracted by a plane flying over head.

Happy New Year And Lots of Updates!

We had a fun new year's eve! I made the girl some party hats and they had fun with the poppers and pull string fire works! They went to bed at their usual time but we had a fun time playing around with them! Then Bryson and Heather Lind came over to play games! We had fun, I took a picture of the snacks I made because I set it all up nice on the table and then we decided to play a game that needed the table, so I was sad that I had to put it all back in the kitchen. :) The picture of Bryson, Heather, and Brian is the lull in the fun, we trying to decide what to do! Good times, be sure to check out my other posts, we have had a fun couple of weeks!

"Snow" Much Fun!!

Just a tree in our back yard, I had fun with the picture, can you believe how much snow there on the branches?!

Meet Frosty, that is what they named him. It was so sweet, after we went inside they kept running to the window asking if Frosty was still there or if he had melted like in the song!

Autumn was not a fan of sledding!

Christmas 2009!

We had a great Christmas! It was really fun this year with Lily and Cloey being older and even more excited for Santa to bring them some goodies! We also had fun teaching them the true meaning of Christmas and doing some service too! I am so grateful for the season and for my wonderful family. I love my children and I am so glad to have them in my life! Here are some of the fun memories from our Christmas!

Yay for Christmas Jammies! Growing up I always opened one present on Christmas Eve and it was always pjs! So we are keeping with the tradition!

We got to talk to Elder Justin Keeley on Skype it was fun to talk to him and see him at the same time! My brother Matt didn't call until quite a bit later than we thought he was going to, so we ended up missing his call, the girls were ready for bed! It was a long and fun Christmas Day!

Don't We Look Fabulous!

Jason and Jonny went to Utah last month and they brought back some hats from Great Grandma Keeley for the girls. Lily and Cloey were so excited! They were having fun trying them on and modeling them in their bathroom mirror! They are so cute!
