Happy Birthday Dawson!!

Dawson is one years old. This post is a few days behind. We went to st George for the weekend. It was a great time. We had cake and ice cream with my family as well as we were lucky enough to have Davids dad and terry there. It was fun.
On his birthday day we went with my sister Millie and her daughter McKenzie to wheeler farm. We feed the ducks and saw all the animals. IT was a fun day.
I cant believe that he is one. I guess i can say that we survived the first year of three kids. It was very tiring at first but all worth it. I do have to say that he is officially off of formula. Thai will be nice on the pocketbook not having to buy formula.
He is such a cute baby. He just goes from one thing to the next. I have a feeling that this next year is going to be filled with Dawson getting into everything and giving me a real run for my money.
I cant believe he is one. I have loved every minute of being his mom. Dawson you have brought us so much joy. You are the perfect addition to our family. We love you so much and am so proud of you for all that you have learned this year. Happy Birthday Dawson we love you

Tubing at solider hollow

The other day I went with my kids to solider hollow to go tubing. It was a little pricey I thought at first but I really wantedd to take them sledding. It was well worth the forty dollars. My sister and her family were going so we tagged along. M ymom watched dawson so i was extra excited to just have some good quality time with the older two.

It was the most fun I have had. It was a perfect day to go. When you buy your tickets you get them for a two hour increment. Our time was 2-4. It was the right amount of time to be out in the snow before we got to cold. They had a tow rope that took you up the hill and then you got on the tube and went down the hill. The set up was perfect and it was so much fun. Thanks millie and Bodie for letting us tag along with you. Thanks mom for watching dawson so I could go with the other two.

I highly recommend the tubing hill at solioder hollow for anyone that lives in utah.

Brooklyn and her Tube

This is the tubing hill. There were five or six lanes to go down

Pure Enjoyment

They recommended that you be three years old to ride the tow rope up the hill. They had a little baby hill so if you were under three you should sled down a small hill. We passed Landon for three. The baby hill was very small. Once the kids found it they had some fun playing on it. Brooklyn thought it was fun to pull landon down that small hill and then back up the hill. She is such a good big sister.

Always has Landons Back

It was a great time to be a kid and get in the snow. It was a great way to spend the day. Not having a worry in the day and act like a kid

On a little side note I was having Landon help me make breakfast the other day. Dawson and Brooklyn were asleep still. It was a nice few moments to have just me and him. I just thought this picture was cute and captured a sweet moment.

Short one

Well David is officially gone. He did leave last week but they pulled them back in for a week. He will still be home around the same time so that is Nice that we get a short one this time. We are heaving a great time with family and friends. It is a nice distraction. So I will have some posts on the journal of David gone if any of you want to read them. Hope you are all doing well. I will be home the end of January .I cant wait to catch up with everyone.
David I know you cant read this now but when you can know that I love you so much and I cant wait to see you. Good luck on the trip. I love and miss you so much I cant wait to be home with you

Mamma MIA!!!

Finally the day has come were the greatest movie MAmma Mia is on DVD to watch over and over again. The best part of the DVD is that there is a sing along addition. It is the greatest feature ever. MY great sister Leslie had put together a mamma mia party on monday dec 29. It was at my moms house. The only requirements were to bring your singing voice good or bad and a costume. Me and my sister leslie went to ross and found our costumes for the sisters. Ross never fail us. We found some gold shiny dress/shirt tops and some pleather pants. That is right I said Pleather pants. I was a little nervous for the pleather pants. I treid them on and I think I was more excited that they fit with out any excess falling out and I was able to breath just fine.

At the party we had a chocolate fountain and appetizers. It was yummy food and good company. My dear freind adrienne that I havent seen since we moved from california was in town and ws able to come over. It was sgreat to see her and spend time with her. Even though it was crazy with all the people and the kids I was so glad that she could come. My dear friend ashley also cam over dressed in socutme and all. Thanks girls for coming. My sisiter leslie has a really good friend named ali that came over as well. She has know ali for a long time and ali was in town from idaho. My sister in law janece and my niece kaysie came down from ogden to be there. It was so fun to be around such great people. The kids had there cousins there. I think the little girls got more excited for the mamma mia party then the adult girls. All the little cousins know all the words to the songs.

So what does a mamma mia party intale? Well we put the movie on the sing along version and we sang and danced our hearts out. It was the first night in a long time that I let it all loose and really enjoyed myself. There was so much going on and so many fun picutres taken I figured the easiest thing to do was to put the pictures up so enjoy the pictures and the movie.

I do have to give a special job well done to my mom. She is the greatest. She brought a costume and was shaking it with the best of us. There is a part in the movie were mery streep sings this song with a red scarf. Well part of my moms cosutme was a scarf. When the song came on my mom did us all proud with dancing and singing to it. She is the greastest. Thanks for the job well done and the laughs mom!
