What can Feb. bring?

So what can February bring....It's already been a crazy month and it's only the 11th.



This is Jaylynn at her preschool class Valentines Party. She really has the best teacher!! Ha ha...but she really is such a good girl for me. She loves learning and always tries her best at everything she does. She is just the type of personality that you love to have in class!


And she is walking!!! Yes the cast is off. It was a pretty easy 4 weeks! She was such a good girl at Primary Children's. There was not one tear when they were cutting the cast off. The Doctor told us that it would take her a while to learn how to walk again but to not be alarmed and to just give it a month. But as you can see...she walked from the 4th floor at the hospital down to our car. She didn't want anyone to touch her! What an independent little girl! I love it! Ben was so proud!! We celebrated with a donuts from Lehi Bakery!Yummy!!!






Moments like this you always treasure! (I was driving while taking this picture opps!)



Do you think it's weird that my kids LOVE the Dr. Office? Yes once again!
I hate EAR INFECTIONS!!!




Hailey was baptize last weekend. It was a great baptism with my dad giving a talk and Joe doing the baptism. We finished it off with a great luncheon. I can't believe Hailey really is 8. She is such a sweet girl and always does the right thing. SHe is such a good example to Jaylynn. We sure love her! I think we all were missing my mom but knew that she was there in spirit.

Reese and Jaylynn are always needed a picture. Cute little models!!

Nov/Dec/Jan-heck I struggle!!!


Jess and Skye at Jess's Baby shower. We all are so excited to get Ruby here! She will be the only baby in our group of friends and we are going to spoil her like crazy! We love you Jess!!

Okay were do I start.....Brynn broke her leg 3 Sunday's ago at my friend/family or what ever we call the Johansen's!She feel down I think there hardwood stairs! It was awful!!! I just had one of those mother feelings that something was wrong. I don't know if it was her leg twitching, the 45 minute crying session...which is nothing new, or the fact that she wouldn't walk on it. So Skye and I left for the ER with Brynn. We were shocked when they told us it was broken! It was a crazy night but I'm so glad I had Skye to take care of us. She filled out the paper work and knew all the info, then she talked to all the doctors for me and made sure Brynn was okay by giving her a sucker that she had in her purse. She also went on to explain to everyone that we weren't a couple. I don't know what she was thinking or doing but I guess she had to explain our relationship!!LOL!!! Anyways... She had a wrap on for about 3 days to let the swelling go down then we went up to Primary Children's to get the cast on. She really is fine now but those first weeks she would just scream and wanted to be carried by everyone. She hated that she couldn't run around with Bracken but she did get even with him by hitting him with her cast... a lot! She now can run around with everyone. Things are good! I do have to admit the cast is soooo cute!

Brynn's aunt Tamra and cousins sent her a Get well package with a book and cards! It so thoughtful...something my mom would do! Thanks Tamra you don't even know how much we appreciated it!



Jaylynn being a model. She loves to pretend she is a superstar. The clothes she is wearing are Matilda Jane. Skye just won their big photographer contest and was sent back to their headquarters. She gave Jaylynn and Brynn two outfits. Thanks Skye for thinking of us!!



Leslie, Heather, and Noah all signing Brynn's cast!



Bracken on TIME OUT....do you think he's scared?



This is how Brynn acted for two weeks after she got her cast on! It was hard to deal with!!!LOL!!!

On Christmas before Jaylynn even looked at her toys she said mom take a picture! This is what she did!!! ????



Bracken loves Jaylynn's vanity! Shhhh...don't tell Ben!



Christmas Eve PJ's! They are soooo happy! The funny thing is I forgot to even wrap them! I can't believe I forgot! ????



On Dec 4th we always get together with my dad and go out to eat, try to do an activity, and end it with a wal-mart rip. Something my mom would love to do. We miss her but had a great time remembering her and being together!



I made this wreath with all the grandkids picture on it!





We went to the Dinosaur Museum in Price. My mom use to talk her grandkids to this place all the time. My kids never had the chance but Grandpa did a great job!



The triplets! This guys were born within 6 weeks of each other. Paisley was born on my Mom's B-day! I love it! Paisley is such a sweet, cute girl! We love hugging and kissing her! Tamra and Joe really have the cutest kids!



Christmas Clothes! This picture was taken before Melissa's wedding! I'm glad we got the picture because we never would have had time before Church. It seems we are always rushing no matter what time church it!



I took Jaylynn to the Princess on Ice. We really had a great time with Melaine and Amanda's girls! Thanks for the great time! Jaylynn was in her glory! She love love love it! I do have to say it was worth every single penny!!!

Bracken loved getting candy!!Yeah..it was a success!!!

My dad spent Halloween weekend with us! Brack loves loves my dad!! Jared is always looking good in pictures. We sure love you both!

Jalylynn and her good friend Sophie!

Bracken...he loves taking pictures

Making our traditional Halloween cookies. I really hate the mess....but Grandma Joy always did it so I guess I will carry on the tradition. Did I mention I really don't love this activity:)

Bracken and Jared frosting the yummy cookies. Even though I hate making them they always turn out great!

Bracken and Brynn had their 16 month check up the day before Halloween. So I thought their Halloween costumes would go great with the occasion. Dr. Kim didn't want a picture so this one will have to do. They are too cute!!

This is a picture of my Preschool Class Halloween Party.

Jaylynn costume was so fun! I really love dresses her up!

We had a neighborhood/friend Halloween Party. We all had so much fun. This is Ben's costume. LAME!!!!

Ryan and Skye...I mean Joe dirt and his lover! Great Costumes guys. Always the life of the party!!!

We went on a field trip to Pumpkinland. Always a good time.

Preschool Class!!!

Every year we go with Cheryl and Melissa to Gardner Village. We always have fun with Cheryl. Thanks for being the best grandma ever. We love you! Melissa....please come back.... Melissa just got married and we miss her sooooo much!

Jaylynn waiting for preschool to start on her 2nd day. We hav a discussion, not a fight, HA HA about what she should wear. She loves jeans and a T-shirt and well I love skirts, leggings, and girly stuff. I guess we pick our battles!!!

Jaylynn and Paisley on their first day of dance. Jaylynn loves dancing and she is great at it. I love watching and encouraging her.

This picture is great. One day I went to Old Navy to get something and they were having a party and this is what Jaylynn looked liked when we came out of the store!

Jaylynn's first day of preschool. I didn't have one of those crying moments...maybe it's because I am her teacher.I really am scared for kindergarten:) The only tear we had morning was our discussion on her outfit. It wasn't what I was visioning for my first daughter to wear to her first day of preschool but....she wanted to choose. The night before she laid out her entire outfit with underwear and all. So I didn't want to ruin her dream. HA HA....T-shirt and Jean girl!
