Sugar Cookies

So I thought that it would be fun if I made sugar cookies and let the kids decorate them all by themselves! They had a blast and let me tell you they made a MESS! But it was sooo worth it watching how much fun they were having! Izzy is a little stunned here that she was able to get dirty!

Here is Izzy's cookie! She did is all by herself! I was pretty impressed and even more impressed that she got frosting on the cookie because she was pretty much licking her knive the whole time!
Here she is after she was done and completely content with all the sugar she just consumed!

Rock N Roll!

Ok I just did a crazy thing I think; I just signed Ammon and I up for the San Diego Rock N Roll marathon! Yup that is right we are going to start torturing ourselves on purpose starting in Janurary! I am really exited that Ammon said that he would do this with me! We both decided - heck we are turning 30 and this will be a great goal/accomplishment for us so why not? My sister and her husband are going to be doing this run with us as well. We have recruited a few other people to run with us and I really hope that they do! I am exited this run has bands playing the whole 26+ miles that we run. How fun will that be? So we are going to make a vacation out of it and go to the San Diego Zoo and than down to Disneyland (which I am soooo stoked about!) So if anyone wants to come and play with us - DO! We wont make you be as crazy and run 24 miles just to hang out with us though! :) So starting in Janurary I am going to need your support and encouragment!

Tag Your it!

TAG - Lets just see how QUIRKY I am...Tell us about 5 unspectacular quirks of yours:

Quirk #1 I can NEVER leave dishes in the sink or on the counter! I drive Ammon nuts because he will get out a glass for a drink and than leave it on the counter to come back to get more and I am ALWAYS putting it in the dishwasher.

Quirk #2 I have to triple check everynight that the doors are locked before we got to bed!

Quirk #3 I am with Becky - I always have to have my doors locked when I am in the car also. I just feel so much safer for some reason.

Quirk #4 I cannot go to bed with the house a mess. All toys have to be picked up and everything put back in its place.

Quirk #5 I have to sleep with one leg out of the sheets and hanging off the bed! I just cant fall asleep any other way!

So I TAG Shelly, Heidi, & Sydney

Breakfast at Sundance!

For my Mom's birthday we took my parents up to brunch up in Sundance! YUMMY!! Afterwards we walked around to walk off some of the food we consumed however we ate sooooo much that it wasn't possible but we loved how beautiful it was up there!

A day in the gardens!

I love how close we live to Thanksgiving Point. We went and spent the afternoon there since the weather has become a little more tolerable.

Izzy loved picking all the flowers. Grandma, Mom, Izzy and cousin Jeff
Izabella and Jeffrey - I love how close they are in age!

Comparion for those who asked :)

Ok here is Izabella's room for Marci, Brittany, & Kimber since they asked for a comparison. I want to change it up since I did this when I was prego with Izzy; I was thinking brown stripes or something but I am a little burnt out on painting (I repainted the kitchen and family room two weeks ago) so her room might have to wait a bit.

Ezra's nursery

Ok I know this may be silly to blog about but I am really exited how Ezra's room turned out and I wanted to post some pics of it! I am just so exited for him to come and oh yeah not to be prego anymore!! :)
