Playin in the snow!

The other morning it was snowing like crazy, and then all the sudden it got pretty warm and sunny and the snow was all melting away, so the girls and I decided to go outside and play in it for a while before it was completely gone, and we couldn't pass up such a nice day! here are just a few pictures of them! needless to say though, it has now snowed non stop since yesterday morning about nine, we have between 12 and 18 inches and it's COLD!!!!

Getting ready to go outsideKennadee obviously wasn't liking this!Kallie pulling Kennadee on the sled!

trying to make snow castles

Kennadee was having more fun putting snow on the sled I think!

Kallie was happy that it had SNOWED!!!!

Kennadee was still a little unsure of the snow, we had just barely gotten outside

Kallie was excited to make a snow angel!

Supporting our Troops

If you go to the website www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. I think it's such a good idea...it lets them know that they are being thought of this Christmas Season, and that we appreciate what they are doing!

it's SNOWING

I LOVE LOVE LOVE SNOW!!!! CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
*As long as the snow is COMPLETELY gone by March!

Decorating and cutting! YIKES!

I have a couple things to blog about, first things first..we decorated our gingerbread house last night! it was a lot of fun, the girls loved eating the candy...I would put frosting on something and Kennadee would lick it off, YUMMY! :) but we finally got it accomplished! I should take a picture of what it looks like today though, 24 hours later! The girls keep getting up on the counter and taking all the candy off! oh well, it still looks cute! Here are a few pictures!

Okay, now I have to blog about our little incident today, I know i'm gonna look back at this and laugh and I'm kinda laughing about it now, but I wasn't too happy at the moment! I just have to tell the whole story, cuz....I guess I'm gonna need to remember this! We got home from church and the girls were hungry, so I was making them some mac and cheese to hold them over till dinner (couple hours away). I had just poured the macaroni in the pan and Kallie climbed on the counter and got the scissors. I told her no to put them back, but she took off, just then the water started boiling over the pan so I was taking care of that for a second! I walked into the living room and Kallie took one look at me and started bookin it up the stairs with her scissors..I made her give me the scissors and that was kind of the end of the story, I thought maybe she had been cutting pieces off of the Christmas tree..I figured since i had the scissors i wasn't gonna do much about it, just finish making their lunch! so, it was like 1/2 hour later and we were watching a Christmas show on TV, and I looked over by the tree and there was a whole bunch of little piles of something on the floor, they looked black and I couldn't figure it out, I asked Kallie what they were, after explaining to her what I was talking about, she said oh that? That's kennadee's hair!

WHAT????!!???? I picked Kennadee up and sure enough, Kallie had cut her hair! are you kidding me? She had a pony tail on top of her head, and kallie had cut half of it clear down to the hair thing! NICE, REAL NICE. I took Kennadee in the bathroom, and took her hair thing out, half of the side of her head is like 2 1/2 inches long, while the other side, is like 5 inches! NICE again! so I tried evening it out a bit, and it looks better, I immediately tried to put the top in pig tails and it was a success, so I'm not too burned about it now, it doesn't look too bad! I have a few pics on my phone, but they don't do it really justice! I'm just glad she didn't touch the back of her hair, because it is really tight curls, and i'm afraid if we cut them off, they won't grow back curly! that was my adventure for the day! Kennadee is sure proud of her new haircut though! She tells me kallie cut it and it looks pretty! Oh yes, it is darling! ha ha....I'm afraid now that Kennadee is gonna attempt it by herself, because she thinks that's a pretty fun thing to do! I'm throwing away every pair of scissors in our house!

Poop

Okay, so I know every kid sometime go through "bathroom talk" stage (I dunno what else to call it) where they think anything to do with poop or bums, or anything like that is funny. To make a long story short, I didn't think Kennadee would go through it before she was two. kallie really never had a problem with it, but thanks to Kennadee that's all I hear...examples? Sure.
Kennadee what do you want for dinner?
her reply.."poop soup", are you serious? where does someone come up with that (unless it's really what my cooking tastes like)
I ask her...Kennadee what is that?
"Poopy" (spelling)
ok..honestly,
She picks up a barbie doll, takes the clothes off, and tells me that she is poopy.
If she is being too quiet, I ask her where she is, her reply of course is she's pooping...on the toilet? She says so, but can be found in the toy room...hmmmm...no toilet in there...When does this end? I'm not kidding, everything has to do with poop, and that is her answer to everything!
More examples? Sure I have a ton
"Kennadee, where is Tank (our dog)?"
"He's poopin"
I wouldn't put it past him on that one, I've never seen anyone poop so much in my life! (that's awhole nother story)
and last one, if she sees something on the bottom of her shoe, on the wet wipe box (half the time it's marker) or anything else, she replies with "EEEWWWW POOP"
We even mention the word poop and they laugh hysterically! Goodness KIDS!! :)

more family pics

I finally had some patience to wait for my computer to download a couple pictures from our family pics that we had taken! My husband's boss's daughter took them for us! I think they turned out pretty well, she is only a freshman in High school and wants all the practice she can get, she loves photography, and I am very pleased at the pictures we got! Here are just a few of them! I'm not a real big fan of this picture but I had to put it in here so everybody can see our "sweet little innocent" Kennadee! :)

*this is just a side note, but have you ever gone to eat at a Mexican restaurant, and come out smelling like a freakin Chalupa and salsa? we ate at one today for lunch, that is what I smell like right now. BLAH!

What to wish for

We were riding in the car tonight and Kallie was looking out the window trying to find the first couple stars, she finally spotted one and said "Mom, I finally see a star, what are you gonna wish for?"
"I'm gonna wish for my two little girls to be really really nice and kind to each other, so they can get presents for Christmas."
"Mom, you have to wish for toys, you can't wish for nice kids, cuz that's just not gonna happen."

Kallie says

I have been explaining to Kallie the real meaning of Christmas, the whole....Baby Jesus was born, about Bethlehem, and the Star of Bethlehem, and about the wise men coming to bring him gifts and yada yada yada! Anyway....tonight at dinner we sat down to eat, Kallie had helped me make Hot potato salad, ham and rolls...We were eating and just talking and Kallie turns to me and said....
"Mom, Kennadee isn't being a very big girl"
I said to her "Yes she is, why do you say that?"
She replies "Because she hasn't eaten ANY of her Bethlehem."

HELP!!!

Okay, i have to do sharing time on Sunday, and my topic is my body is a temple!! Does anybody have any ideas that I can do for an activity and stuff for my sharing time!?!?! HELP!

Who you callin COLORED Folks??

Okay, i had to post this, because I think it is just so funny...This was written by a black guy in Texas. How do people come up with these things? Talk about creativity!!!!

When I was born, I was BLACK

When I grew up, I was BLACK ,

When I went in the sun, I stayed BLACK,

When I got cold, I was BLACK ,

When I was scared, I was BLACK ,

When I was sick, I was BLACK ,

And when I die, I'll still be BLACK .

NOW, You 'white' folks....

When you're born, you're PINK,

When you grow-up, you're WHITE ,

When you go in the sun, you get RED,

When you're cold, you turn BLUE,

When you're scared, you're YELLOW,

When you get sick, you're GREEN,

When you bruise, you turn PURPLE ,

And when you die, you look GRAY.

So who y'all callin' COLORED folks?

Just Wondering

I was just wondering, does anybody else's house get outta control messy, but it seems like it is everyday? The kids won't hardly help you pick up, unless there is somthing good in return or a pretty major threat? I think i'm the only one...like I said..just wondering!

Halloween time

I have no idea what order these pictures are in, cuz I can't see them when I download them, but anyway...here is our halloween pictures! I've been kinda lazy and decided it was about time I'd post them, or it's gonna be Thanksgiving, and then it'd be kinda gay to post them then...anyway...the girls were set on being princesses and I wasn't going to argue. We decided to go to Green River and did the stake trunk-or-treat with his family! the girls had a lot of fun, and Kennadee was busy snacking on candy, once she was done with one peice she kept walking with us, but once someone put another piece in her bag she would sit down and try and find the piece of candy they had put in there. I finally ended up carrying her and gave her a big sucker that I know would last until we were done! Kallie had a lot of fun, most the time she remembered to say trick-or-treat, and Kennadee never forgot, and always ended it with a Tank-chew (thank you). It was so cute. It turned out really well, and it was so nice outside..I was glad the girls didn't have to trudge around in High heels in a ton of snow!!

I LOVE PINk

So..I just remembered that i haven't blogged about what the baby is! We are having another girl! I am so excited...It was weird, cuz...I was really feeling the "boy" vibes, (well....I guess not cuz...I don't know what those feel like yet) and we have been told 3 different times 100 percent, it's another girl!! The girls are so excited to have another sister, we have been trying to think of some names, but nothing has been agreed on yet, and well, I still have fourish months to go still, but with the holidays coming i"m sure it's gonna go by fast! So..for now, we are still thinkin pink! Which is wonderful cuz I LOVE PINK!!!!!!!!

For the record

I am just gonna jot this down for the record....the church situation isn't getting any better. I think my only choice is going inactive till they are married, then I'll willingly join again.

Not fit for a princess

Kallie lately has been telling me, if I ask her to help pick up the toys or help clean something up, she replies.."Mom, I am just not very good at that." Well..today I was cleaning up the girls bedroom and asked Kallie to put a few shirts in her drawer and throw the shoes in the closet and her reply was "Mom, that job is not fit for a princess." It was so cute and I had to laugh, but the little stink....she knows how to try and get out of things! She is very into princesses and barbies lately, so we are back to changing our outfit 18 times a day into different dresses! and for the record...she never did do what I asked her to, I asked a few more times and nothing became of it, and I figured it wasn't a battle that I choose to have that day

What a day..what a day

Okay...So my decision is final.. my mind was made up today after our day in church, I am going to find something extremely naughty but church appropriate to take to keep the girls settled down in Sacrament meeting! Usually they are half way descent, but not today...picture a zoo with the animals running crazy, that was us today at church! I am not even kidding, we made it through the sacrament and had to get out of there to prevent anymore distruptive behavior! To start off, Kallie decided she was hungry, (They were still playing prelude and we still had at least five minutes to go) I had brough some Cheez-its...well..Kennadee thought she would be funny, grabbed a handful of crackers and threw them all over the floor, well Kallie got down and ended up stepping on half of them before I could get them picked up! I got them cleaned up and finally the meeting started, We started singing the opening song and Kennadee grabbed the book from me and threw it on the floor, reached for another one it dropped and made a loud noise,Kallie was kicking the bench in front of us and I know the elderly couple in front of us didn't appreciate it one bit, I tried to tell her to stop but she wasn't listening. Then kallie decides that she needs a drink, I tell her no and before I get the "O" out of my mouth she is half way there, of course Kennadee follows, Seth went and grabbed them and brought them back in...let me just make a point clear, this is nothing yet (the whole congregation is full also they even opened up the back because it was a missionary homecoming...EEEEK!!!!) It starts to get closer to the sacrament, Kennadee keeps crawling under the bench and running into the foyer (we are on the back row) We keep going to grab her, finally I get her to sit on my lap and eat some fruit snacks, The bread comes and she has a whole mouth full of fruit snacks and decides to put the bread in at the same time..well..of course we all know how wonderful this would taste so she spits it out all over, I seriously had had it up to here with her and beyond...so..then I am trying to wrestle her down and keep her quiet until at least the water comes...we finally make it to the water, just when the boy is about to pass to us, Kennadee is nowhere to be found, she had crawled under neath the bench again and was running around, the kid was standing in front of our bench so we couldn't get out to get her, and he was clueless, so finally she realizes that she's not getting any water, and runs after the kid yelling Wah Wah (water) so he bends down and lets her help herself to the water, she ends up spilling it all over, and luckily we got to her in time before anymore damage is done, so we bring her back to the bench and she gets away again, (I can control my kids seriously, usually anyway...I dunno what was going on today) so then..we look back and she was taking hr diaper off, in front of all these people, Kallie of course thinks this is hilarious so she's laughing out of control, and saying Kennadee is taking her diaper off..Hahahahahahahahaha...this wasn't quiet at all...I couldn't take anymore, i swear all eyes were on us, so I looked at seth and said let's get out of here...he took her into the foyer, and the girls thought they could run around..I don't want them thinking that they can just run around if we have to take them out because they are being naughty so we just left! I swear anymore days like this...i'll be inactive!! It was seriously nuts...I think I still have a headache!lets hope next sunday is a bit better!

And I'm having a.......................

Jk...I still don't know...went to find out last week, the cord was between the legs, the legs were crossed, blah blah blah...wouldn't cooperate AT ALL!! I walked and paced trying to get the little bugger to move and show us something half way interesting, but nothing..dang it! Should be finding out in the next couple weeks! I'll do a for real post when I do find out, right now i'm just pretty bored and didn't really have anything real real cool to blog about, so this is just a lame ol' post...BOOO!

Heber Creeper!

My parents came down on Thursday for my birthday, yes..i know..YAY for me, happy birhtday to me..la la la..anyway...they came down and since the girls love trains they took us on the Heber Valley Railroad *Heber creeper*..we went on the ride called the sunset BBQ special! We have done this ride for several years now and we love it! They take you on these old trains on a ride up the canyon, and they have fiddle players and banjo players that play music during the ride and then they stop at this little pavillion and have a huge BBQ..the food was so good! They usually have bbq chicken and ribs, and potato salads and desserts, rolls, the works! it is so good and the girls had such a fun time going! They were quite scared of the whistle for a while since we were the third open car next to the engine, but on the way back Kallie decided that she wasn't afraid anymore, and Kennadee was too busy trying to take her clothes off! She is our streaker for some reason, she loves to have her clothes off! anyway....we had a lot of fun on the train and I can't wait to do it agian! Thank you mom and dad for taking us!! It was a lot of fun!

okay...So I am the worst blogger ever, my computer takes so long sometimes to load pictures that I just hate waiting for it! anyway...we just got back from a week of camping and my girls had a blast! The camp site that we ended up getting so was dusty that it got kinda miserable at times with the kids and dogs running crazy, but Kallie and Kennadee loved every minute of playing in the dirt! Actually, all the kids loved every minute of that dirt! We did so many things! They girls got to ride horses, play with dirt, Kennadee ate a lot of dirt and tried to eat rocks, played in the creek, went four-wheeling, rode motorcycles, slept in a tent,went fishing, and Kallie even got brave enough to cross the creek in her underwear, don't worry we were all right there incase she fell, but she did great and was kinda cold when she got to the other side, we roasted marshmallows, and ate like royalty. Kallie and Kennadee had so much fun playing with all their cousins and played so well the entire time! Since there are so many pictures on here from camping i'm not gonna explain them all, I think the pictures say enough!! For the record, it took three baths to get the girls clean when we got home! they even got baths up there too every other day..They were covered from head to toe with dirt and dust!!! We had a lot of fun, but it sure is nice to be home in my own bed, my own house, a bath tub and shower.
