snow stuff

We've got the "greatest snow on earth"

and an abundance of it in the mountains,

so we've been using it for fun...

This guy is a maniac and fearless-no bunny hill for him!

This year Kaitlyn gave up her skis and decided

she is a snowboarder

and she's good!

Cameron just keeps getting faster- and has earned his

first merit badge- snow sports!



Chris and I spent a weekend with friends up at

Bear Lake snowmobiling- grown-ups only!!!

We hang out with a fun group of crazies....

Winter has been fun...but we're getting anxious for tulips!

Happy Jack

Jack recently celebrated his 7th birthday...

First with his buddies Andrew and Dawson-

and then with his extended family and Pizza!!

Our resident cake decorator Kaitlyn prepared

a fun cake with his favorite Lego character Luke Skywalker...

He loved it!!

And no celebration for Jack would be complete

without his gift of choice- LEGOS!!!

We sure love our happy Jack!

For Josh....

My brother thinks we don't blog enough.

He's right, so here are some of the things

we've been up to during chilly January...

We said good-bye to a good friend, the Mustang.

Chris sold it. His idea.

Melissa had nothing to do with it (disclaimer).

Cameron and Chris went to a couple of Jazz games...go Jazz!

I celebrated yet another birthday- Sheesh time flies!

Jack entertained us all running up and

down the court- smiling all the way!

We took advantage of our abundance of

snow, meeting our need for sledding speed!

There you go little bro- we promise to do better!

Cakes

Kaitlyn took a cake decorating class in December-

Here are her creations:
Wedding Cake-

Cupcakes-

Her first cake-

We ate a lot of cake that month,

so she got a peppermint "pie" for her birthday!

Happy 15!

Ugly...

Christmas sweaters....and sweater pants!

We recently had a party celebrating warm,

fuzzy, ugly seasonal sweater fashion.

Hopefully I won't offend anyone with this post!

If you are a school teacher,

sing in a christmas choir,

ring the bell at Walmart or just really love

this time of year-you know you have one.

Wear it with pride!

Dance

Kaitlyn went to a "best dress" dance at her school last night.

Here she is with her good friend Lucy. They looked pretty!

Didn't I just drop her off at kindergarten?
