Big time slackerness

I realize that my posts have slowed down, and I have not put new pictures of us up for a while, we lost the thing we need to download pictures from the camera onto the computer and we have not bought a new one yet, hopefully we will soon. Just posting to say sorry and we will try harder to post more often.

New Friends, Old Friends, I love all of you!

After catching up on my blog reading this morning I have been inspired by so many of them I felt like I should post something. I'm not sure where I'm going with this, so please bear with me. As most of you know about a year and a half ago we bought a house in North Salt Lake, it's a quaint little area, and the house is a fine size for now, but for some reason I kept having this feeling that I can't wait to move back to the center of the city. It's always hard to move to a new place, with unfamiliar surroundings, and getting to know new people and find your place in the ward. After almost two years I finally feel like I like it here. It' so sad that it has taken me this long, but better late then never right.

What has brought on this new change of heart has been that we have recently hung out with our neighbors, and played some games. Jill and I have had many play dates and lots of chatting, but we haven't been able to hang out altogether until recently. Dave and I love to hang out with friends, but some days you don't feel like driving somewhere, so to have friends that you can walk down the street to hang out with is awesome. Dave is also going to start playing racquetball with a friend in the ward, while his wife and I work out. I am so excited to build a friendship with our new neighbors, and have some close to home fun.

Now I don't want you old friends to feel like we are neglecting you. I love an old friend more then words can express. There is nothing like hanging out with someone that knows you so well, and that you can share anything with. Friends like that don't come a round everyday. There's so much history with new friends, that just saying one word makes you laugh so hard you are going to pee your pants. What was it men lactating? There are few things I enjoy more then sitting around talking with an old friend!

New or old I am so thankful for all the friends that are in my life! everyone of you have made an impact on me in some way, and I am grateful for the lessons I have learned and the laughs, tears, and stories that have been shared. I hope that we can all stay friends for a long time, and see what comes of our lives. If had one wish for friendship it would be that all my friends lived close enough to see on a regular basis.

I love you all!!!!!

NKOTB is Back!

Well I'm not sure how many of you know, but I was able to go to the New Kids on the Block concert when they were here in SLC. My brother and sister-in-law Andrea came to Utah for the concert and I went with her. Now not only did we see the concert from the 2nd row center, we got to meet and greet them before the show as well. It was totally awesome and a once in a lifetime experience, Andrea and I got lots of FACE TIME and a little booty grabbing and cheek kissing as well. I'm lovin' on Joey and Andrea is holdin' on to Donnie in the picture. So all those doubters better recognize that NKOTB is back to stay.

Got to Love Toddlers

So this afternoon when Makay was eating lunch Logan decided that he needed to eat the waffle that I was feeding Makay instead of letting him have it. I looked over just in time to see Logan shove the whole thing in his mouth I said "Logan that's the baby's lunch you already ate" he pulled the huge piece out of his mouth handed it to me, saliva and everything, and said "your welcome mommy." What could I do but start laughing, at least he used his manners right. lol The day is always full of surprises when you have small children at home.

A Matching Match Christmas

After a fun morning of opening presents with the boys Dave's parents stopped by to deliver their presents for us, and receive their presents from us. As you can tell I love to have things match, the boys are wearing their new p.j.'s that they received on Christmas Eve, Dave and I are wearing our p.j. pants that we got a few years ago, and G-ma and G-pa are wearing their matching sweatshirts that we made for them with a picture of the boys. In the picture on the sweatshirts the boys are also so matching with their homemade shirts from G-pa with a certain score on them 48-24, anybody know what it's for???? I think have a sickness, an obsession with everybody matching, oh well they are only little once so I have to do it while I can.

Aside from the matching it was a super fun morning to watch Logan open his presents and hear a high pitched "Lighting McQueen" when he open the trailer he got, and 2 lighting McQueen cars. And when he came running into the living room and we asked him what Santa brought him he said, "I don't see him, he's not here." Logan's excitement for Christmas has really brought out the Christmas spirit in Dave and I, it has been a great Holiday season, and I look forward to many, many, more.

I wish you all a wonderfully happy new year!
