HaPpY HaPpY NeW YeAr!

For New Years we went up to the cabin for a week. It was so amazing to get away for the week and just relax, eat, snowmobile, and make lots of great memories. Ty still had to drive down to work a couple of the days so that stunk, but we made up for lost time when he got back :) New Years was SOOOO much fun! Maybe a little too much fun. By about three in the morning me and Josi were in the bathroom. Ty told josi that she should try never drinking for the rest of her life. She just smiled and said "hahahaha LIFE"! I was convinced that there were twins in Twilight ( I really don't know where I got that? ) After the exciting night we got up in the morning and Ty & I took some ALONE time and went for a long snowmobile ride. It was amazing to say the least! Well all in all it was a GREAT week, and hopefully you can all come up next time ;)





LOL these pictures still kill me! Love ya Sweetie Pea.






















Ty geared up for the U game. GO UTES!




Jeter is soooo funny :) He loves to ride the snowmobile with his daddy. Ty says that he is a good rider too, and that he even leans.






Jon & Hope





Our friends Jon, Hope, Jeff, & Laura came up for a day of snowmobiling. The day that they came up it was -20, sooooo cold. We all kept laughing because the inside of our noses kept freezing. With only a couple of times getting unstuck we had a GREAT time!










We were lucky enough to keep spotting moose. I always forget how big they are!




Bella and her new boyfriend Baby. Josi got this cute little boy for Christmas. Bella & Baby love to play, and when we split them up they get all sad. It always makes me feel bad.





I am so proud to be from Utah! The Utes games was absolutely AMAZING they seriously kicked butt from the start. I don't think we held still the entire game. GO UTES!





The famous number one again :)



Megan and her family came down to visit. I love that family, we always have so much fun with them. They had a big get together at the Christensen's, and we played the night away!

Merry Christmas*

I absolutely loved this Christmas! I really don't know how it can get any better. Though I am starting to see why my mom used to get a little stressed on the holidays.... All five of us kids running around talking about Santa, whining that it is already two days after Thanksgiving and the tree isn't up yet. His, hers, theirs, and ours Christmas party, but don't forget your treat that you were supposed to bring. My mom really is a saint, I don't know how she did it! Between Bella, Jeter, & Ty, I was still shopping on Christmas Eve trying to get everything to make the perfect Christmas. Ty and I stayed up wrapping presents for Jeter, Bella, & everyone else after two Christmas Eve parties, and sprinkling the reindeer food on our lawn ( I made sure that Santa stopped at our house). Finally we put our two angels to bed, and hit the sack so Santa could come! Jeter finally woke us up and we spent about an hour with all four of us cuddling on our little queen bed ( I know, the dog hair on the bed grosses me out too but it was Christmas & sheets can always be washed ) when we went up stairs the tree was surrounded by all the presents that Santa had left ( I know I really still can't grow up )! It sounds stupid but Jeter & Bella were running around like they really knew that it was Christmas. Jeter laid on his new bed while little Bella Loo chewed open most of her presents. Then off to Grandma & Papa Jones house we went. After we were done we went to breakfast at Ty's Grandma & Grandpa's house. It was soooo YUMMY.... On about our third stop Ty kept telling me that he was ready for our Christmas nap ( that man still kills me :) ) I dragged him around for about four more hours visiting ALL my family & little ones. When we finally got home for our Christmas nap we only had about an hour until we were supposed to be at the movies. Brooks, Stacey, Ty, and I met Tay and Josi's family at the movies and watched Marley & Me. We all left with puffy eyes and a runny nose. When we came out of the movies it was a winter wonderland outside, and took us about an hour to get home. By the time we finally got home we were both pooped, so we cuddled up with the babies and went to sleep. Probably one of my favorite Christmas's! Ty, Tay, Josi, & I got up and met for breakfast & an entire day of shopping. Ty is too freakin cute. He loves to play with the little ones, and he is always starting some kind of trouble.... He got all of the wrapping paper from the pj's and started a wrapping paper ball fight with the kids. Whenever we all get together you can always find Ty wherever the little ones are. They all love Uncle Ty soooo much, and think he is sooooo cool.
