weekend in spokane

We had a great trip to spokane this weekend! My mom works for an assisted living home so on friday I went and sang for them. So much fun to pick up that mic again!



Friday Night we got to go visit my aunt and uncle. I had a little geneology lesson! SO much fun to see them!




On Saturday we went to Kettle Falls where we got to stay with my Grandma. My aunt and cousin came over and played games with us. We also got to see my brother and his family. My brother also stayed and played games with us. My sister and her kids stopped by too! I can't believe how big the kids are. It's pretty sad when an 8 year old is almost as big as you are LOL!





We also got to see Dee and Jeff and Hailee. Hailee kicked our butts in wii bowling!



Jason was playing with Hailee and said hey whats that in your ear and pretended to pull a dollar out of her ear. Hailee then tried to put the dollar back in her ear LOL! SO CUTE!!



It's always great to go visit family! I am exhausted from staying up WAY too late chatting and playing games all weekend,but thats part of the fun! We came home and both of us fell asleep. Now time to go back to bed and then work tomorrow. It's great to be home!

The mouths of babes

we just got back from the hotsprings with jasons family. It was so much fun!(we missed you Erik, Nicci, and Savannah, and wish angie and joel and the kids could have been here to come with us! (move back already guys!!!!!!) we swam and played to our hearts content. There was just one thing I couldn't figure out... I was trying to play with our neice Hailey. She always gives me hugs and wants to play, so imagine my surprise when she politely (in her own "hailey" way) declines! what!? my first thought is did i do something that upset her? I couldn't think of anything, but nonetheless there had to be some reason for her polite "Hailey way" decline. I shrugged it off for a while, and then had this conversation with her where she (in her "Hailey" way) declined again. I GIVE UP LOL!

me- Hailey do you want to come swim with me?

Hailey- no!

me- Why not? It will be fun!

Hailey- I don't want to because you're just too small

me- (while laughing) ok well is that such a bad thing?

Hailey- (looking at me with an "are you crazy" look...swam away from me and said "nevermind"

She is too cute for words! We love each and every one of our neices and nephews, and the funny things they say!!!!

Winter 2009

I tried snowshoeing for the first time today. It was so much fun! It was the perfect day to go to Bogus today!

Post Thanksgiving Duck Hunt

Just wanted to thank Erik, Joel, and Dad for a fun duck hunt and a first for me, a triple with one shot. Even though we did not get many ducks flying, it still made for a fun time.

Funny Story....

While at the movie theater tonight Jas saw this display and told me to go stand next to it because he thought Alvin was taller than me, and well... as you can see he was right! Oh well... what can I say? Good things come in small packages right?

Curls or Not

Ysterday I discovered how naturally curly my hair is.... I thought it just had a little wave, but it's actually pretty curly! What do you think? Should I wear it like this, or keep straightening it??
