Enjoying the Warm Weather!

The weather has been so nice lately.  Yesterday we went up to visit Big Grammy (Wayne's mom) and it was so nice, we went outside.  The boys loved playing in her big yard, running around and playing with her dogs.  Emerson has always been afraid of the dogs, but yesterday he finally pet them.  Then he had to pet them again, and again, and again... and again.

Thankful Thursdays

Today I am thankful for the Car Wash Depot.  If it wasn't for these guys, my car would never be clean.  They even know me by name when I pull up.  The guy always comments on how big Emerson is getting. (I went here the same day I went to the hospital to deliver him... I couldn't bring him home in a dirty car :) )  It is so nice to have a clean car again!

Baby Maggie

Saturday we went to see the newest addition to the Minor family, Cam and Lisa's new baby Maggie.  She was so cute and sweet.  My boys couldn't get enough of her.  Emerson kept wanting to give her kisses and Wyatt kept wanting to hold her.  Don't get any ideas boys!

Happy Valentine's Day

Wyatt and Emerson had so much fun opening all their Valentine's Day surprises this morning from us and both grandparents.  They loved their doggy Webkinz and Wyatt has been asking for the movie Snow Buddies.  He was so surprised.  They also got money and way too much candy that they are going through way too fast already.  Wyatt really got into giving Valentine cards this year.  He wanted to give one to EVERYONE.  This is what he wanted me to write on Emerson's: "To Emerson, I love you.  You are really cute.  I will take care of you and protect you and help you when you need help.  From Wyatt"  He is such a good big brother!

Making Valentine Cookies

Yummy!

First Talk!

Today Wyatt gave his first talk in primary.  He gave the scripture once as a sunbeam, but this was his first time to give a talk.  Papa and grammy and mommy and daddy all came to watch.  He spoke about the scriptures and did such a great job.  We are all so proud of him.  Way to go bubbies!

Kaymee tagged me...

I got this purse for Christmas and I absolutely love it!  It is big enough so I don't have to use a diaper bag anymore.  Right now it holds:

• diaper, wipes, burp cloth
• coupon for diapers ( I only buy Pampers Cruisers)
• my wallet
• two pens (one from the cruise)
• my phone
• tylenol
• lipstick
• chapstick (Burt's Bees)
• stick of gum
• baggie of pretzels and a fruit by the foot
• tissues
• my camera is usually in there too.
• hot wheel

The Quest

This was a really funny game we played on the cruise.  It was a scavenger hunt type game called The Quest.  There were 10 teams and Matt was our team leader.  Thanks to the old man behind us who was willing to take off his pants, and Kaymee and I doing the worm in front of everyone, and Matt and Brian dancing together, our team won!  It was hilarious!  (I had to post this to show off my husband)

The Cruise!

Here are a bunch of photos from our cruise. It was such a blast! We went to Cozumel first, then we went snorkeling in Honduras and then we went to the mayan ruins in Progreso, Mexico.  We met some great people and made some awesome memories.  We can't wait to do another one!
