HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We had my family over to bring in the new year and we had lots of fun!  Watching Dad and Joni play Mario Kart with steering wheels was definitely one of the highlights.  I guess you can teach old dogs new tricks ;)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

We spent Christmas up in Rupert Idaho with Darren's family and it could not have been more fun!  There is nothing better than watching little kids on Christmas!  Not to mention the whole family was able to make it.  They even had LOADS of snow to top it all off!  I will however mention that the -12 degree weather was less than desirable.  Which is why our playing in the snow didn't last very long. 

IT'S A BOY!

Darren and I found out on December 17th that the little one in my tummy is a boy!  We could not be more excited for him to arrive.  If everything goes according to plan he will arrive on May 1, 2009.  We haven't narrowed down a name yet but we'll keep you posted.

ZERO TO THREE IN NO TIME FLAT

We got to babysit the MacArthur kids for a weekend and we had a blast.  We will however tell you that going from zero to 3 kids overnight is no easy task.  We realized pretty quick how 'non-kid proof' our little apartment is.  All in all we had such a great time... and from the looks of it we think they did too.

BIRTHDAY FUN

It was Joni's birthday on Monday and as you can see we had lots of birthday fun!

So... As you may know I'm currently the Primary Chorister and the Primary Program is on Sunday. Funny thing is, our ward thought we were moving (because we thought we were moving) so they released me last week. One week before the program :) Don't worry, I'm a nice and am still going to do the program so I don't stress the poor new girl out. But now after all of this crazyness I have to go back and tell the Bishopric 'Just kidding, we're staying now so we both need callings again' -- Hopefully they don't hate us too bad.

IT'S EVERYWHERE YOU WANT TO BE...

I personally would like to move to Figi. Who's with me?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Thanks goes to Joni for my fabulous Wilma costume. Did I mention that I think Halloween is the MOST FABULOUS Holiday!? When else do you get to be whatever your imagination can think up and get candy for it?

ON THE ROAD AGAIN...

We went out to Idaho to visit some family. Why is it that all of our family members feel the need to move to remote areas that barely exist on the map...? Anyway, as usual we had a great time! We got a chance to head up to 'Day Break' to shoot some pictures and it was beautiful.

CEDAR CITY ISN'T SO BAD AFTER ALL...

So we took a trip down to the city that is like a 'Black Hole' sucking up our family members... and surprisingly it wasn't so bad. We actually had a lot of fun!
