Valentines Day

  Valentines Day came and went so fast this year!!!  Thankfully I had a friend post a picture of the cute valentiens she got for her kiddos from Sams club and I was able to ask Sandra to snag me some!  They were so cute and it was so nice just to have the girls sign their names and be done.  I got to help in Keagans school party and it was lots of fun painting and making lanterns.  Kabree's class got a treat and exchanged valentines for their party.  We had a family dinner of Chicken Alfredo as per Kabrees request and ended our night with watching the Olympics.  I sure love this family of 4 we have and couldn't ask for anything more!

February Book Report

  February's theme was biography's, Kabree was an over achiever and she read 4 biography's this month.  She chose to do her book report on Rosa Parks.

Marshmallow Playdough

  We decided to experiment with some marshmallow playdough, it took 3 tries before we found one that worked but it sure smelled and tasted good once we did!!

Office Pranks

  Zach's friend Tory loves the Office as much as he does.  So the weekend they switched out desks for their department Zach decided was the perfect opportunity to pull the Jell-O prank.

January Book Report

  January's book report theme was humor.  Kabree decided for her report to draw a picture of her favorite part of the story.  Her favorite part was when they told Amelia to "run home" and she ran home not to home base.

East Idaho Aquarium

  ICCU gave us tickets to the East Idaho Aquarium so we decided that Christmas Break was the perfect time to use them.  Poor Heather got food poisoning so we asked if we could still Libby, Hanna and Justice for the day to join us.  We headed to Idaho Falls for some Chick-fil-A and then over to the Aquarium. It was pretty fun, they are just barely open so they are still working on several of their exhibits, I won't lie I was not at all disappointed that they didn't have their bird exhibit open yet!  We did get to pet the sting rays and sharks (one of my favorite things).  We got to feed lots of fish, feed and pet the lizards and turtles and got to dig for treasure. 

Christmas Day

  Christmas morning we were surprised to have Kabree be the first one up, she was up and ready to go by 6:15 (she is usually our sleeper inner).  Nothing is better than the joy of watching your kids on Christmas morning!  The joy, the magic, their smiles, I love all of it!  I felt pretty crappy so luckily they have an awesome Dad, Grandpa and Grandma who gave them great excitement and helped them open everything!  We all got spoiled and loved everything we got!  After gifts we enjoyed our Christmas breakfast a quick hello, Merry Christmas and good bye with cousins before heading home.  This Mommy got sicker as the day went on and just wanted to be home in my own bed.  Once home we had a nice quite Christmas day with the girls enjoying all of their new things and movies on the couch.
