This morning we went to the Draper Temple open house with the kids. It was so cool to be able to be there with them and see their interested faces. Gavin more than Makayla, although when we got to the Celestial Room (we had been telling them that that room signifies what it is like to live with Heavenly Father) Makayla says "Heavenly Father is wewy (really) gonna love this room." It is so awesome that being so young she could feel the spirit of that room. Hmmmm....maybe I am teaching her something.

A new record.....and some Christmas
For us anyways. Our house went on the Internet last Saturday, Feb. 28th On March 6th we got an offer, we countered on the 7th and they accepted on the 7th. It was only on the the market for 6 days!! We are shocked it went so fast. We're kind of melancholy about it though. It is good but we really have liked it here, we have always thought maybe we should have built a different model house, one to expand more into. I for one hate change and don't like to start over in a new place. But this is a great market for buyers and now that we don't have to worry about selling anymore I am sure we can get a good deal. We will surely miss everyone here.
So on a lighter note....here are some Christmas pics: (I know its way over, get over it)
My mom always makes fleece pajamas for the kids for Christmas, the babies always get a little santa suit. Jaydon and Braxten are cousins.
This is my grandma and her husband Vard and my sister and her new hubby Zeke (yay she finally found a nice guy) They are expecting a baby sometime, I don't know when maybe this summer.
These are our gingerbread houses that we made. My brother Derk is in the hat. I had to sneakily throw them away a couple of weeks ago.
Matching Christmas outfits for the girls. Man they are cute....
My kids love to help me cook in the kitchen. My mom embroidered their names on these aprons. Can't wait to have a bigger kitchen for them to help me in.
Chloe tearin' it up. She had no idea what was going on just loved crawling around in all the crinkled up paper.

Our weekend getaway
We decided to celebrate our 10th anniversary by going away for the weekend. Here is the view from our room. We stayed in Park City the first night. My brother-in-law hooked us up with a awesome room at his hotel. I had my sister decorate it with rose petals and what not. It looked cute. Kicking myself because I didn't get any pics of it.....DUH! The next night we went to Johnson Mill in Midway. Here are a couple pics:
Pic of me and with the pond and a deers butt!
This is our room, who is that stud standing next to the fireplace?
We had a great time. It is fun to get away alone once in a while without the kiddos. Thanks Mom for taking them!!
