Easter... a long time ago!

This is the only picture I got of us in our Sunday dresses that day.

Easter was in March this year, right? We went up to a baby blessing in Cedar and stopped by Uncle Paul's and Grandpa Stucki's. The Arbon's were down for the weekend and we had an egg hunt with them. It was tons of fun to have all those crazy kids around!

THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH

We just had a fabulous week in Anaheim. The girls were able to get on all of the big rides, but still got a thrill out of the simple ones. Sarah said her favorite part was when Jasmine waved at her at the end of the Alladin musical. Alison thought it was pretty cool too! The first ride Monday night was Dumbo and the last ride Friday was Space Mountain. They went on just about everything in between. It took my mom to convince them that Pirates and the Haunted House weren't too scary to go on! Lauren was a trooper too. She and I spent some time in the hotel room resting which is a good thing to do on a vacation too. It seemed the perfect time of year to go...not too many people and not too hot.

John is quite the prince with all his princesses. We were all pretty exhausted after a fabulous week. What an exciting family vacation that we will always remember.




Super Bowl Sunday brought more than a game surprise! During the game we enjoyed a snow storm. The next morning we woke up to this beautiful scene in the backyard.

There is something so clean and peaceful about a snow storm. I love the stillness and quiet that exists. I know I can only say this because I only see it once or twice a year, but I do love it.

Happy New Year!

Now that the holidays are officially over for a few weeks, (has anybody bought Valentine's cards yet?) I feel like have a little more time on my hands to get blogging! We had a wonderful season with family this year. Santa brought a Wii and I must admit that the whole family has had a lot of fun with it. I did have to give myself a few days off last week because I threw my arm out playing baseball. Be careful with those Wii playing injuries! Sarah is our high scoring bowler and Alison can knock you out in boxing! We spent some time in the snow in Lehi with our cousins after Christmas. We had a ragin' New Year's Eve party...remember the kind where you actually stay up till midnight?!

The girls started a ballet/tap class that they seem to be enjoying. John got a new calling at church as the Young Men's President. Lauren drank from a bottle for the first time last week. Life is never dull here in Hurricane...(I never thought I would say that!) Can't wait to see what lies ahead for us.

Happy Halloween!







I am determined to put at least one post a month on this thing. I really love looking at my sisters' blogs and am mad when they don't have something weekly! Anyway, I am going to brag about trick-or-treating in 68 degree weather this year. No bundling up until you can't see what they are dressed up as and no worrying about how wet and cold they might get. It was fabulous. Also in October...Alison went to conference with John, we went to San Diego, and Coral Canyon had their carnival where we got to throw pies at grandma...what a great month!

This weekend Alison was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We had a wonderful time with family. Some of the highlights are shown here...
