Anney is Addicted to Frozen Waffles!


This little girl LOVES frozen waffles! She eats them EVERY morning for breakfast and then a couple more times a day! The funny thing about this is she can open our Heavy freezer, get a waffle out, pull up a barstool to the toaster, put it in the toaster, get the syrup out and then put it in the microwave! I sat and watched her one day do this whole process. It is hilarious! All I have to do is break the waffle into pieces and pour the syrup over it. I need to take pictures of her doing the whole thing. It's 10:30 in the morning and she just made herself a waffle! Also you have to love "daddy's cup" that she is drinking out of. I'm sure it will all over the floor shortly!
So if you ever need someone to cook you a waffle....anney would love to!

Travis the "absent minded professor!"


Travis is not thrilled in this photo at all cause he knew I was going to put it on my blog....but this is so funny! His teacher has called him the "absent minded professor" since the first week of school. He always has a million things going on in his mind and can't seem to focus sometimes. His desk is a nightmare! She always tells me she has no clue how he finds anything! I am constantly on him about his room, backpack, you name it....he is a pack rat! I'm guessing his teacher had enough of his messy desk so she dumped his whole desk into this big black garbage sack! He walks in the door yesterday from school with this huge bag over his shoulder and I could tell it was really heavy. I said "what the heck is this?" He tells me what his teacher had done and I could of died of embarrassment! I was trying so hard not to crack up laughing cause I was trying to teach him that this is really embarrassing for him and me, and his teacher probably is sick of his desk etc. She told him to clean out the bag, throw all the junk and papers away, bring back her stuff and leave his books and junk at home! So Travis gets a garbage can and starts going through stuff. He has stuff in there from the first week of school and all kinds of garbage! I think we found about 22 pencils. The best was he found some assignments that weren't his and he said, "guess the kids in my class mistakenly thought my desk was the garbage!" He is so dang funny! I think he was happy how much he got cleaned out and I love his teacher and hope she does this often.....what a great idea and I think I'm going to start putting all of him room in a black garbage sack!

Knotts Berry farm!



While we were in california we took the kids to Knotts Berry farm. We have been many times but every time we go the kids absolutely love it! We missed Travis this time cause he had to leave early with my parents to get back to school for an ELP fieldtrip. In order for my parents to have room to bring him home we had to take someone out of their car, so we opted for Reagan....our babysitter and favorite aunt and sister! Thanks Reagan for all your help with the kids!

Anney loved the Huff and Puff!







I LOVED megan's face in this picture! The Noisy Trucks have always been a favorite! The kids drive them around a track and honk this obnoxious horn the entire time!

Anney is fascinated by Choo Choo Trains!


Megan loves this ride cause it lifts you up in the air and then drops you down!











Cousin Colby's Missionary Homecoming!

My Cousin Colby returned home from the Canada Winnipeg mission the end of November. We took the kids over to Southern California the day after Thanksgiving to be with him and hear him speak in church. He was such a wonderful missionary that has a very strong testimony of the gospel and the people he served and taught. We love you Colby and thanks so much for being such a great example to my kids...they truly love you! We got some really fun and cute pictures of the kids and family while we were there!
