CaNcUn...


So at the end of March, Breton and I were able to go to Cancun with a bunch of his guys!  It was so fun and so nice to be in such great, hot weather!!  It was beautiful!!  However, I almost didn't make it on the trip...For whatever reason, my passport did not come and it was the day before we were supposed to leave!  After a full day of being on the phone with several "customer service" people from the Passport Agencies, I was told my only option was to fly to a federal building and get my passport in person!  Seriously, I was dying...I couldn't believe it!  So the day before we left to Cancun I ended up taking a flight to LAX, getting a rental car, and drove to the LA Federal Building.  7 hours after I arrived, I was back to the airport heading home to UT with my Passport in hand...Thank Goodness!!!  I got home at 11:30pm, then turned around at 5am the next morning to catch our flight to Cancun! I must say, it was a little crazy...but I guess it made the trip that much more enjoyable!!! :)  Thanks mom for watching the kids for us!

LiTtLe OuTiNgS...

Well, it obviously has been forever since I last blogged and still have a lot of catching up to do!  So here are a few things of what we have been up to in the month of February!  

KANGAROO ZOO and JUMPIN JACKS


I decided to get a month pass to Jumpin Jacks since the weather is not so great here in the winter!!  Every week I took the kiddos so they could run around and let out all of their energy!!  We definitely have to find things to do to break up the days and weeks!!!

The Draper Temple Open House!  Kaylin has been obsessed with temples lately so it was a great experience to take her to the temple!  

Eating at Gateway with the family! (Dad...wish you were here with us!)

SuPeRbOwL...

We had a fun day with family and friends!  
Here we are making lots of food for the big game!!


Kaylin is quite the little helper in the kitchen these days!  She loves to pull up a chair next to me and wants to know everything I am doing!  :)
 
Kaylin and Sophia!

Breton, Dax, Shane, and Oliver...watching the game!!!


Josh and Alicia!

A wEeK iN fLoRiDa...

Well, a couple of weeks ago we went out to Florida to visit my parents!  It was such a wonderful trip...especially when we trade in snow for sun!!!  We loved spending time at Grandma and Grandpa's and it was so nice for the kids to spend endless hours outdoors!! We have been home for 2 weeks now and already wanting to go back!!! :)  Too bad it is so far away!  

SIESTA KEY BEACH








Their favorite place! 

Saying bye to Papa!
Kaylin and Dax loved the beach, but we ended up spending most of the days in the backyard! All the kids wanted to do was play in Grandma and Papa's pool and hot tub! We seriously spent about 5- 6 hours out there everyday!!  It was fabulous!!  They also loved going on daily golf cart rides around the neighborhood!  Thanks mom and dad for everything!!!

HoLiDaYs PaRt 2...

Well, it has taken me forever to finally post these last pictures from the holidays!  So here it is...months late! :)

New Year's with the Clevelands!!! 

Great Grandma Pretzie!

Kaylin dressing up in my boots and hat!  She loves to wear her sundresses...even if it is December!!  


So this is my VERY favorite thing right now!!  This is how Dax folds his arms to say a prayer!  He puts his little hands in a fist and places them under his chin, then puts his head down!  Not real sure where he got it from, but we love it!!!


Bowling with the Stout Family!



Kaylin's Christmas dance recital!  It was so cute to see all of these girls dancing!!!  Kinda funny story:  They had these big stockings that they would get in and out of as part of the dance and  in one section they lay them down on the floor so they can slide back into them.  Anyway, Kaylin had to make sure hers was perfectly flat...not a corner turned over!  She spent a lot of the dance "fixing" her stocking and the girls next to her!   The teacher came over and started to help her finish faster so she could join back in!  Not too surprising if you know KK's personality!!  Breton and I were dying!!! :)
