visit with Nanny & St. Patty's

My mom came to visit and it happened to be the warmest week we have had so far this year. We were able to spend a lot of time outside. She took most of the pictures with her phone but here are a few that I took.

spent the day at the pond, then to lunch at Pizza Pie cafe

 

movie night, with sundaes

Yummmm

St. Patrick's Day, I love to make a big deal out of holiday. I don't know if the kids will ever remember this stuff, but I sure have fun doing it. The Lepruchan left foot prints all over the house with clues to where the treasure is.

the treasure

 

Breakfast, green pancakes with green sprinkles on green plates drinking juice out of a green cup.

 

Snuggle time with Nanny

Oh and Andes mint cupcakes for dessert

 

Major catch up-St. George

So, I if anyone even still looks at my blog you have noticed that I haven't posted in a while. We have done lots of fun things lately and I will have many new posts in the next week.

We went to St. George a few weeks ago, surprisingly we haven't been in almost a year. We always have the best time with the DeLlamas family down there. They truly are the best friends!
Lots and Lots of Mario Kart was played

We enjoyed the super warm weather

had big wrestling matches and dance parties

these little besties just chilled

We went on a very short hike

it was the weekend Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 came out. This pic was at our house but the kids watched it a few times in St. George and they all loved it! Even Wes, haha we even watched it on the drive home

Like I said I have lots more posts to do, so keep checking back :)

I didn't take that many pictures from our visit with Michele which I totally regret. She kept taking them with her phone so I wasn't thinking about a camera. Anyway like I said before we had the best visit and I miss her already.


of course Wes wanted to take her to Jump On It

 

Ty came over for dinner one night, him and Natty just chillin'

Isn't this the cutest picture ever

Wes has been taking gymnastics for the past few weeks and really loves it.

give Wessy kiss

oh good...is this inappropriate?

snuggling with dada

 

Happy Birthday Natalie!

Natty Bug turned 1 this week, but the really exciting news is my sis surprised me and flew in the night before the party. I had no idea she was coming, even Josh was able to keep it a secret. I'm so glad she was able to spend Natty's birthday with us.
Here are some pictures from the party.
 

 

Natty and her Aunt Shael

Just hanging with her besties

 

 

her own little cake, she actually wanted to be fed instead of eat it herself

see, she didn't get too messy

all this partying tired her out

and the crash

we ate at Cafe Rio for dinner

Since Josh wasn't at her party (we did it during the day) we sang to her again and gave her another cupcake.

 

 

Wes and his Valentine!

 

I'm back

Now that the boring month of January is over I may have more things to blog about. I took Wes to probably the worst circus ever. I was actually afraid for the performer's lives. Most of you have heard the stories. But basically ther was a lot of falling and things that went wrong. Wes loved it though, so I guess that's all that matters.

We have a walker, she started totally walking on her own 2 weeks ago ( so at 11 1/2 months) she will be 1 on Wednesday. Stay tuned for birthday party pics

 

Pajama party

and I had to include this picture just to remember, Wes had his appointment at Primary Children's (he had a heart condition called pulmonary stenosis when he was born) thankfully everything is continuing to look great and now his appointments will be every 5 years. So happy that he will never have any restrictions.
