February Catch Up

I thought I would do a little re-cap of our February. I sucked at blogging last month, so here are a few things that we did.

We sold our Bayliner and bought this beauty, a 2006 Moomba Mobius! We are super excited since it will seat 13 and not 7. Now if summer would just come so we could get out on the lake.

We went to another Jazz game. This time against the Spurs and we LOST! Boo!

Had sleepovers with cousins.

Made these drapes for my office remodel...which isn't finished yet. Thank you Pintrest

And went to The Aquarium for an afternoon! It was a cute little place. I've never been and the kids were totally entertained.

Happy LOVE Day

Happy Valentines!!

Valentines kind of feels like Halloween....there are treats galore. Ethan was excited to come home from school with a huge bag of Valentines.

We made heart toast and had strawberry milk for breakfast,

these guys pretended to love each other, (actually Ethan is really good to include his sister, except when she steals his trucks.)

and went to lunch with Kurt.

It was a fun day!

Gotta Love Them NO MATTER What....

Reese had a cold for what seemed like forever. When she got over her cold, her nose wouldn't stop running. So as we were getting ready to leave somewhere we grabbed her from out of the office and this is the beautiful face I saw.

Don't worry, it only took about five minutes for Kurt to scrape it off her face with a warm wash cloth.

Only five and half more months...

On Friday night we said goodbye to my mom once again. We all got together at my house for a final goodbye and thanks to the Hogan's for always having a camera.

Can't wait to see BOTH of them in such a short amount of time. Three years felt like FOREVER when they left, but I can't believe that it is just around the corner!

Ringing in the New Year

We rung in the new year with some sledding at Soldier Hollow. Ethan LOVED it. I was nervous that he was going to have freak out since he isn't huge on tubing behind the boat, but he thought it was a blast. Kurt and I took turns watching Reese and taking her down the baby hill. She was a trooper and such a good girl. Apparently we exhausted her cause she thought the tube was a perfect place to take a nap.

Then it was off to a Jazz game on Monday night. Kurt's work has season tickets right at center court on row 15. It was so much fun to have a fun date night with the hubs doing something we love! Bring on the Jazz!

We are excited to bring on 2012!

Christmas

Christmas was a lot of fun this year. Ethan is at that age where it is so magical to him. At about 6:45 he threw open our door and told us that Santa had come. He was beyond excited! We got up and took the traditional stair picture. Some how this year Chucky joined us! (I can't stop laughing at Reese in the picture)

Reese saw her rocking horse and none of the other presents mattered. Ethan tore open the his presents the minute he laid eyes on them. I think he had all of them opened in record time. We were lucky enough to have my mom spend the night so she was there with us on Christmas morning. We saved the gifts we were going to send to Japan and let her open them here. Kurt got some fun things for our bikes and I got a quilted minky blanket that I LOVE along with a gym bag and some work out clothes.

It's our tradition to have a breakfast in the morning so this year we had some rudolph pancakes, thanks to Pintrest. It wouldn't be an eventful morning if something didn't go wrong....Kurt opened our back door to let Kya out and we didn't realize that our alarm was going off, the pancakes burned, and about thirty minutes later we had police knocking on our door! I don't think he was too happy to know it was a false alarm.

Later that morning we went to church. then headed to my sisters to exchange gifts and hang out for a little bit, and to end the day we headed to Kurt's mom and dad's to exchange gifts and spend some time with his family! Even as exhausting as Christmas day is I always love it! We had a great Christmas! I have to admit thought that I'm excited to take down the clutter!

Christmas Eve Tradition

We had our annual lunch on Christmas Eve this year at The Brick Oven. Before we left the kids got some pictures together. Reese is sporting her new hair cut. I was so sick of the crazy hairs everywhere that they just did a cute bob cut until it grows out evenly. I think she looks pretty cute. Plus I can still do the normal pig tails.

This year was different then the past two years since we had my mom here with us! It was a fun lunch and a fun way to pass some of the time! We also got a little crazy with photo's, Kurt learned that you get lots of pictures when you are with the Margetts' Fam.

We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!
