What we have been up to!!

I don't really know what we have been up to, that is why I haven't really posted anything lately. Over Martin Luther Weekend, though, we did go up to Salt Lake to take Taggart to the Walking With the Dinasours at the Delta Center. It was an amazing production that told all about dinasours and they were so life-like. Tag thought this was awesome and so did we! One of the dinosaurs was 38 feet tall! They moved and sounded just like real dinosaurs and Taggart even got scared a few times.

Here he is with his Grammy and Grandpy playing with his new dinasour toy that was $18 at the event... Hello!! Thanks for bying it for him Grandpy!


While we were up there, we were lucky enough to get to see my sister McKelle perform in a cheerleading competition. They took state, yeah!!, and she did a great job. Maddie had fun watching the cheerleaders and dancing too!

The rest of the weekend we just hung out with mine and Cam's family and relaxed. It was great! Here are the kiddos with Uncle Blair. They are looking at some Dinosaur clips on the computer and having the time of their lives! It was a fun weekend and we were glad to have something to do in this long, wintry month of January!

Christmas 2008

I know that Christmas was a week ago and I am just finally getting to this post, but I finally have just found the time! We had an awesome Christmas this year and we all didn't want it to end. I took down my Christmas decorations today and both Tag and Maddie were so sad. Tag kept asking to listen to Christmas songs and Maddie walked around to where all of the Santas used to be and pointed and said, "HO! HO!" We were able to spend time with both of our families which is busy, but a lot of fun! On Christmas Day is snowed over a foot and a half and the power was out for 4 1/2 hours! We finally decided to cook dinner, which consisted of canned soup and quesadillas, on their gas stove in the basement! What a Christmas feast!! It was very cold and snowy up there and Tag enjoyed sledding, playing in the snow, and riding the 4-wheeler. Maddie got another ear infection like last year, and she was somewhat tempermental at times. We were all very happy and surprised with all our gifts! We played a lot of games and ate a ton of good food! We were sad to leave everyone, but it is nice to be home and enjoying our beautiful St. George winter weather! I am not missing the snow one bit! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! Here are some of our photos.
