Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. We didn't do anything exciting for New Years Eve but sit at home, watch movies and fall asleep before midnight. On New Years day we went over to my parents house to celebrate Kaylee's 29th birthday. I can't believe she's almost 30! What an old lady she is. :)
On Saturday we went to Calico. We took the kids last year at this time and they had a lot of fun stuff for them, so we thought we'd try it again this year. Lauren was bigger now so she could climb the rock wall and ride the mechanical bull, which she fell off of and scraped her chin on the horn. It was a beautiful day and the weather was perfect.





The kids did leather stamping.




The finished products. Blake and Lauren made bookmarks and Amanda made a cross necklace.



Lauren peeking through a little hole in a cave.




That's about as high as she got. Pretty good for a 3 year old.




Spiderman on the other hand could climb up the easy,medium and hard sides of the wall with no problems.









Hold on Blake!!






Bryan, Blake and Amanda climbing the sides of the hills. A little too steep for Lauren and I.




Branding a piece of wood.



Lauren trying out her lasso skills.




Mighty Ducks Hockey Game!!

My dad got hockey tickets from a guy at work for a suite at the Honda Center. My family went along with my parents and a friend of my dad's. I hadn't been to a hockey game for a very long time and I forgot how much fun they are to watch. The kids all loved it and all I heard from Lauren the next day was how she wanted to go to the hockey game again and again and again.




Grandma and Lauren all cuddled up.

The hockey game looked super fun. Bummed we couldn't make it, maybe next time.
