February

Month of February came and went already, I guess that is a good thing because it is almost Spring. I am excited for warm weather, it will be fun to get out of the house and play.
We went to St. George for a week. We always try to go to the St. George Parade of Homes, there was a few houses we liked a lot, (maybe someday we will build again).
Here are a few pictures from our month of February....

Mason and Katie on Valentines Day... Love you kids so much!!



We also went to my Mom's work one day, we were the Very Important Stock. Mason got to check out the trucks. He loved it. He also told all the UPS workers that his dad was not there because he is a postmaster at the post office. It was pretty funny.



St. George....

Mason slept in this big bed all by himself. (the room also has a TV that he can watch all night)


Mason climbing rocks, one of his favorite things to do in St. George.

Katie climbing rocks.

Swimming... they got in for about 5 minutes and decided it was too cold.

Mason was jumping off these rocks.

We went to the Pirate Island Pizza Place, the kids had fun.

Katie in some new curlers.

The kids tried on all of Great Grandma Zabriskie's hats. Pretty silly...

We took Mason Miniature golfing.

He also rode this go cart, it was so slow he parked it before it was over, he had enough.

January

Last day of January and I have not posted all month. We have not been doing much, just hoping for warm weather. We always wonder why we live in Utah when it gets this cold. Family and Friends I guess. Here is a few pictures of what we have been doing...

Zak got a popcorn maker for Christmas, he loves it.

We went to a Birthday Party for Kinlee at Fins and Grins, it was a lot of fun for the kids.

Mason coming down the slide... I think he went down that a 100 times.

Smaller slide for the kids... Cooper, Kenadie, Katie, Mason and Logan.

Katie's orange frosting... she only eats the frosting.

And... Mason lost his fingernail the other day. He hurt it pretty bad in December and we were wondering if he was going to lose it. Gross!!!

Christmas Day

Christmas was so much fun this year. Mason was so excited. Katie had a lot of fun ripping open presents. I am not sure that they understand how lucky they are. I have been trying to explain to Mason that not all kids get everything they want for Christmas. But I doubt he thinks about it when he is tearing open all of his presents. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. I love my family very much.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve......




Jen came over and made cookies with the kids, they had so much fun.

Just adorable!!!!


The kids Christmas Pajamas.

That night Katie went to sleep early, but Mason was so excited he could not sleep. He actually said, "I don't know how I am going to go to sleep."

December has been busy! Here is a couple pictures of what we have been doing..

Kids tree, they decorated it all by themselves.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. I missed not seeing everyone. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I am thankful for my family. I hope they all know how much I love them. Life is to short not to spend time with people you love. Thank you Zak for loving me. Thank you Zak for letting me stay home with our kids everyday. Thank you Zak for working hard for our family. Thank you to my kids for being such great kids and fighting over who gets to sit on my lap (the fighting drives me crazy but I love it). Thank you to my sister Jen for calling me every morning and just being you. Thank you Steve and Cathy for everything you do for us. Thank you Mom for always caring about us. Thank you Dad for calling me this week. Thank you to all my family and friends for caring enough to look at my blog. I love you all.



Breakfast at my Mom's. Zak's favorite meal.

My two beautiful children.

Our Cute family

Dinner at the Zabriskie's. We picked up Grandma Mac and brought her to dinner. I hope she enjoyed getting out of that place for a couple hours. She is a great lady!

Hawaii

Here are a few pictures from our Anniversary trip to Maui!!! We had so much fun, I wish we could go back and take the kids. I have about 200 pictures of sunsets, I love them, they change so much. I will probably add more later.

Too cute!
