Valentine's Day

For Valentines this year, Jeremiah and the kids let me go shopping while they stayed home and cleaned the house....laundry, bathrooms, kitchen....everything. This was so sweet and I was so excited! I really think I am so lucky to have Jeremiah as my husband, and our sweet kids. Happy Valentines to me:)

Happy Valentines Day:)

Wendel took these pics......so cute! This kissing one was his least favorite:) He said he was closing his eyes when he took it.

I remember seeing Jeremiah for the first time and thinking how handsome he was....I still think so. Isn't he so cute?

This boy is pretty cute to! He loves drawing. Maybe he'll be an artist someday.

I love both of their expressions here.

There were just too many of these pics to choose from, so I had to put up a few;)

BIG hair

I did Reagan's hair in little buns all over her head the day before this. She slept in them and when we took them out, this is what we got! She has soooo much hair I can't believe it. When she saw herself in the mirror, she was a little uncertain as to whether she liked it, but eventually decided she did (with Jeremiah and I both telling her how cute she looked). When we picked up Wendel from school, he said "whoa, your hair is really big...and crazy." It definitely was big and a little crazy to, but A LOT cute! What do you think? Do I need to put this into her hairdo rotations?

Sister Weekend

My sisters Jennifer and Lisa came to visit this last weekend. We had tons of fun. We did some shopping and surprised Megan with a new baby's room. Most of the time we just talked and reminisced. We stayed up way to late every night and the time went way too quickly! Next time we need to plan on a whole week--not a weekend:) And Carly better come next time:)

Carol made this cake--so cute

Jennifer made all the bedding--it was so amazing

Jessica and Lily

Isn't Megan so cute?

Ella thought the sisters weekend sounded fun, but this picture shows she was sorely disappointed

Jennifer had lots of fun as you can see by her face:)

Me too:)

Megan walking into her new room where we were hiding:)

We are so sneaky:)

We always tease Megans husband about liking Penguins, so naturally, this became a penguin themed room:)

We repainted and distressed this dresser

eating ice cream--My favorite;)

Jeremiah's surprise

Jeremiah's birthday is coming up and he is turning 30! I can't believe it. With the help of his mom and friends from school, we planned a surprise party for him. We rented out a place to hang out and invited a bunch of his friends. I can't believe it was actually a surprise--I was convinced he knew. It was fun getting everyone together. We've made a lot of good friends here is Utah and will be sad to leave in May. We are so proud of Jeremiah and all his hard work at school and home! Happy Birthday honey!
