Valentine's Time!

Ava had a really fun basketball season with Brandon as her coach and a whole bunch of friends from her class at school on her team. Mrs. Hill came to watch one of their games.

Ava finally got to do itty bitty bruins cheer with a bunch of her friends. She had a great time!

Mckinley is taking foods at school and often comes home and wants to make whatever she made in class. Home made potato chips in the microwave. Super yummy!

Jackson and his cute little crush Nada with their arms around each other. These two can snuggle like it's nobody's business!

 Decorated the table for Valentine's Day and enjoyed yummy Costa Vida for dinner!

Jackson was bummed he didn't get to make a Valentine's Box in Kindergarten. I'm here for ya next year buddy!

Even though Ava has so many cute boxes to choose from that Kallie or Mckinley used, we once again made her a new one. An adorable little owl!

Kallie used Mckinley's old hot air balloon. Such a good one!

Tyler got a labor of love home made Taco Valentine Box. Last one for Tyler and Kallie!!

Nothing cuter than seeing these two hold hands walking out of school.

I went on a wild adventure of a field trip with Tyler and Kallie up to the Planetarium in Salt Lake. The bus didn't come so we had to walk to the train station and then rode the front runner and trax to the planetarium. Barely had any time there because we spent the whole day travelling/freezing outside lol.

Love love loved this basketball team. Brandon is the best coach ever!

Took the kids to Kangaroo Zoo on a day off of school, president's day maybe?

January

Agents United had a fun little morning event where we went up to Sandy to Classic Fun Center and had yummy donuts and breakfast and got to play. The twins opted not to come and they missed out. It was a great time! Even if we did drive up in a yucky snow storm.

 Finally got some snow to play in outside! Wasn't a lot, but it was enough.

Bought myself a paint by number for Christmas and had a good time painting it. Got a turtle in memory of our fun Hawaii trip.

Jackson (I) made the cutest poster for the 100th day of school! My last 100th day poster.

Tyler got so sick for the longest time! Went to the dr finally and we think it was walking pneumonia. He took some antibiotics and was finally better.

Brandon's Birthday!

Brandon's birthday was a weekend full of lots of good food! We went out to eat at Outback, Cheesecake Factory, Buffalo Wild Wings, and I think even one more. He knows all the good places!

These kids sure love their dad something fierce! Brandon turned 41 this year.

 Outback.

A birthday wouldn't be complete without a trip to Nickel City! So much fun and how do our kids luck out with all these jackpots?

Fast realizing that the days where we still have littles are almost gone... Love these kids so much!

The tiny ice cream at Cheesecake for his birthday. Ha ha. Hilarious.

Went to a BYU basketball game and Jackson fell asleep sitting up on my lap. Cherishing these moments with the little ones.

Tyler admiring Mckinley's amazing water color skills.

Kids went on the front runner up to Salt Lake to do some kind of service. I got released from young womens after 4 years in there and boy is it nice to stay home while they go to their activities!

Took Ava and Jackson to a gymnastics meet at BYU because no one else wanted to come and we go to sit with Claire and Candice there!

Absolute joke, i9 volleyball. Biggest waste of money ever. I feel so bad too cause we convinced Nixon and Merrick to sign up as well. We paid $140 and went twice for something that was worse than PE volleyball. 

Took the kids to Labyrnth with some punch passes we bought for Christmas. Brandon had fun with the older 4 and I took Jackson to the dollar store while they were playing. We did sneak in for this fun room though. Love making memories as a family!
