Good old Smarty Pants

Londyn received an award last night at Wahlquist Jr High for being in the National Jr Honor Society for all three years of Jr High. Just a little braggin rights-she had to maintain good grades all three years her lowest grade was a B plus and that was only once and she was devasted! She is such a good student! She wants to be a nurse, and is already figuring out what scholorships for college to try for. She also made sure that when she registered for High School (What? I'm not old enough for a high Schooler) that she has the right classes to get college credit. I can't believe that, I don't think I thought about college until the day after I graduated from High School.
Londyn receiving her award!

I am not a MORNING Person!

Who could ever yell at these cute Boys?
I can when they are up running around the house at 5 am this morning!!!! Needless to say I was on the sauce (Diet Coke) by 7:30 am.

Preston is loving having his cousins here with us for a few days, they have been having so much fun! They have been playing video games (SHOCK), ping pong, air hockey, tag, cops, and whatever else they come up with. I am the mean mom and I have still been sending Preston to School but I figure that way they can have a little break from each other. Yesterday I had to go to Lofthouse cookies and so Hayden and Reece came with me, they were so excited that there was a store that only had cookies and lots of cookies at that! What fun that something so simple can excite kids!

Super Bowl! Was it really Super?

It wouldn't be a super bowl party without all the treats! And let me tell you it was one wild party!
A MUST- Queso and chips!

This is what Hayden and Preston did during the game!
This is what Reece did during the game!
This is Londyn Actually watching the game!
Kyle and Dan Assumed this position throughout most of the game, although there were
a few exceptions when they actually had to sit up and yell at the TV or go get another
Diet Coke!
I must say though as far as Football goes it was a good game except the team we wanted lost. We all thought Arizona was going to pull it off and then those dang Steelers got a tippy toe touch down!

One for the Record Books....

I always Here about funny embarrassing things that happen at church during sacrament meeting and I have never really experienced any UNTIL... TODAY! It was testimony meeting today and Dan gets up and bears his testimony and as part of it he tells a little funny about how he and I had a little tiff this week and went on about forgiving and repenting blah blah and so on, then a couple people later a man gets up and bears his testimony and in the middle of it he says, he has some advice for Dan, that when you have a disagreement with your wife he suggests taking a shower with her WHAT? Did I just hear that right I stick my finger in my ear to clean the wax out, look around and from the looks on others faces sure enough that is what he said. REALLY??? My face was bright red for his sake and for my sake. I see the look of horror on the Bishops face and I want to laugh my head off. What a thing to say, just keeping it real in Sacrament Meeting.

Two Different Ideas...

Prestons Dog Annie is wanting to go SlEddiNG!




And Preston must be Ready For Spring to come so he can ride his bike,
who needs Spring just ride it in the Snow!

Really????

So this is what Londyn did to my car the other day and she didn't even have to leave our property. She drove the car back to water the steers and slid on the ice into a gate. What the devil! If she can do this just at our house heaven help us when she's out on the road! I'm kidding she really is getting to be a pretty good driver! I was pretty mad when it first happened but I'm dealing with it now.

What Sweet Music Filled our Ears

Preston had his first piano recital - he played a duet with his dad "Up on the housetop" and his solo was "Go tell it on the Mountain" He did awesome he didn't mess up once!!
Marilyn Lott his piano teacher(Love her)
