February 2012

February in pictures.....

Jeff and Barbara's home!



February was not a good month for me!  I started getting morning sickness that kept getting worse and worse.  So this is all the effort I made on Valentine's day, heart-shaped pancakes. :)


My mom had planned to go down to Tara's and watch her kids while she and Matt went out of town, so she let me and the boys come along.  It was fun, especially for the boys.  They love Gavin and Bailey and miss them being in Utah.  I didn't feel well during the trip, but it was nice to kind of get my mind off of it.

California landscaping automatically makes it prettier!  Why doesn't Utah care about their community landscaping?

Enjoying tennis on the Wii with Gavin


Austin was a big helper and helped my mom wash her car

Bailey taking a break during her soccer game.  She does great!
Thank you Gavin for convincing Ethan it is much cooler to tuck your shirt in and wear a tie! :)



Lisa and Jesse came up from San Diego on Sunday for dinner and to visit.   




 More California scenery and beauty on our walk and at the beach.......



 And Austin's cool Duplo skate park he made......

The boys creative minds at work.  They made a "cupcake shop" and used paper cupcake holders and drew/cut out circles with colored sprinkles to glue on top. :)

We went with my parents to a very cool train show they had over at Thanksgiving Point.  They not only had trains, but they had tons of things built out of Legos, which the boys really enjoyed seeing.


Thanks for the beautiful birthday flowers, Barbara!

 We went with Bryan's parents sledding and ended up building three HUGE snowmen.  A reporter for the Daily Herald was there and ended up interviewing Bryan and putting a picture of him and his dad in the paper, pretty fun!



And a few videos of the boys sledding and rolling a giant snowball!
