Cousins

We were lucky enough to get a visit from Justin and Hayden (Rich's oldest Nephew's from Georgia).  Justin has been home from his mission in California for about 6 months, and Hayden his mission from Italy for about 2 weeks.  They decided to tour Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah and stopped by to see us.  Our kids didn't remember them at all but after they were here for a while, loved them and couldn't stop talking about how fun their "Big Cousins" were.

These last two pictures are of Kenna teaching Kortlin some of her moves from a Wii dance game.  They were having so much fun dancing!

 

These last pictures are from Kenna's Baptism back in January that I forgot I took.  The older cousins were putting the younger ones on their backs and they were pillow fighting.  I have never heard them all laugh so hard. 

                                

 It was all fun and games until the tooth was knocked out...

                                        

January in Review and a Little of February too!

January started off with Caiden moving up to the next class in Primary and getting his Aunt Becky for a teacher.  He was so excited and tells everyone that, "I am pretty lucky.  Not very many kids get to have their Aunt as their primary teacher!"
The girls also moved out of Nursery and into Sunbeams.  They were really excited but nervous.  As they came to get them out of Nursery to take them to their new teacher they held hands and walked out as brave as they could.  They did really good and didn't cry.  They made up for it and have cried every week since then though.

{This picture is terrible.  I gave up on getting a good one.  Also, ignore the bright pink leggings...we have early church and it was -9 outside when we left and it kept them warm which is all that matters..right??}

The next weekend we went down to Gilbert to help Jon and Keli move into their new house.  I didn't take a single picture the whole weekend!  It's okay though because two weeks later we went down again.  They have a little duck pond at the end of the street and Caiden loved driving his little boat that he got for Christmas on it.

While we were down there I also took the girls to "Cool Cuts 4 Kids" to get their first haircut.  

Last week Kelsi and Kortlin were able to go to their first friend birthday party.  It was a pajama party and they asked all day if it was time to get their PJ's on and go.  They had a great time!
