Time Flies...

Ok so my sister threatened my life if I didn't post something, so, this post is for Liz, Shelli, and anyone else who is bored enough to check on my blog. I was thinking the other day how fast time goes as I am watching my baby brother grow taller than me by the second...I swear he was a baby yesterday. So I found these pictures of Drew, who I used to nanny for, and when I look at his mom's blog now I seriously cry at how big he is. He is so old now, so what does that make me? Haha, I just wanted to post a few pic's of these happy times. I will always think of Drewby as my first baby, cuz I love him like a child!(Hope I'm not freaking you out, Shelli) He is so adorable and I miss spending time with him. Anyway, there you go Liz, hope you're happy!

Spring Break

Well, my sister keeps getting mad at me for not posting so here it goes. I really do need to get on here more often it has just been so busy lately, and not really the fun busy of traveling the world like it used to be. We are just busy with real life...which is also fun. My sisters spring break was a week before everyone else's in the whole world so that was a little different. When Kade got done with school in December I thought to myself that I wouldn't really have to worry about spring break anymore. We could travel whenever we could get off work. Now though I am realizing that I do have to worry about it cuz it is about the only time in the year my sis can come down so. I guess I will still be looking forward to Spring Break for at least 3 more years. She brought down some of her friends, most of which played on the volleyball team with her this year and it was really fun to get to know them. We took them on Angel's Landing, made them lots of yummy homemade food, and challenged them to some sand v-ball. We had a good time and all of the girls were sad to leave sunny St. George for snowy Logan.
Other than that nothing too exciting. Just enjoying this springtime weather and realizing that I'm not quite ready for the extreme heat.




Me, Christine, Katie, Hymas, Liz, and Jenna
Such Fun Girls!

Logan Trip

A couple weekends ago I went up to Logan to visit my sis with my parents. We had a great time in the frozen tundra! The weather actually wasn't too bad, I mean of course it was crappy, but not as bad as I thought it would be. I am so warm blooded from living in St. George so long that the cold and my body don't do too well together but I survived. I had a blast visiting with Liz and even spent one of the nights in her dorm with her. We had her volleyball banquet and a few boys basketball games and did some shopping. It was a fun trip but I am still counting down the years until she is done with school and comes back to us!

Goodness...Ence-ness

Ok, So I am officially the worst blogger ever lately. K I have been going crazy. I am still working for my dad and have also started working at the Jewelry store AND got a new calling as the secretary in the YW presidency. I have been so busy lately that I just don't feel like I have time for anything. We have been doing some way fun stuff lately with any free time we do have and instead of wasting all my time with words I will just show you what we did with pictures...





ZOEY Is so fun. She loves her sweaters in the winter, since she doesn't have much of a coat and loves to cuddle. She also got totally spoiled this Christmas since she is the closest thing my parents have to a grandchild right now.




Snow in St. George, Gotta love it!

Christmas!






We did the usual, the weekend before Christmas, the boys go snowboarding the girls go shopping and everyone visits temple square and sees the MOTAB Christmas special and then we all go to the LIttle America for their incredible Sunday Brunch. Plus Liz and I found some awesome Christmas PJ's at Target.

Visitors From Japan


















We had 2 wonderful friends from Japan come and stay with us for a week. Kade actually baptized both Mayumi and Hiromi while he was serving his mission over there and when we went back to his mission last year we got to see Mayumi go through the temple which was one of the most spiritual experiences of my life. We had so much fun with these girls. We took them to the Narrows, Zions, 4 wheeling at the dunes, through Snow Canyon, Hot Tubbing, and down to Vegas. We also got to have them make us some Japanese food that we have been missing so we ate Akonamiyaki one night.

I guess that about sums it up. Sorry for the longest post in history but I just wanted to get it all done at once.

Hawaii

So apologies for taking for freaking ever to get this post up. I have been going crazy the last couple weeks and I still don't have very much time so this post is gonna be pretty basic. This year the WAC tournament was in Hawaii so we all decided to be a really good family and go support Liz. Haha, it was a blast! We got to stay in the same hotel as Liz so she just came and stayed in me and Kade's room and my parents and Hunter were next door so we had the whole fam together. The team didn't win but Liz played awesome and we were so proud of her. I hadn't been back to Hawaii since I lived there so it was nice to return and see my "old stompin' ground" as my dad called it.(Yeah Bre it was crazy to see everything that had changed in 3 years) This was Kade's second time in Oahu (the first was when he came to pick me up) and the rest of us had been there multiple times so it was nice not to have to do any of the "touristy" things, we just got to chill and hang out a lot at North Shore. We had a wonderful time and it was so good to just relax for a couple weeks. My fam is the best and we all have so much fun together. Enjoy the pic's, I did :)

 

 

Yeah, Hunter took this picture of Kade and I, isn't he good!?

Family Pictures

It's that time again...Time for family pictures. Thanks Richelle for some awesome ones. This year we just stuck around my parents yard. It was simple and fun. The best part was that Liz was home for the weekend. The first time she has been home since JULY!!! We were all dying with excitement for her to be home and we had an awesome weekend!
