I Love Sign Language!

I love sign language. Jeremy learned it on his mission when he was given a deaf companion. Now Jeremy helps all of us learn it! Boston knows way more signs then I do, and has been really into signing letters lately. Just this week Hadley decided to join in the fun by signing MORE and MILK! It is so fun to have her communciating with her hands rather then with screams!

Zoo Day!

Why would my Mom and I decide to take the kids out in the 35 degree weather to the Zoo? Because it was FREE!! I just love free zoo day!

Here are all the kids dressed up for the adventure!

Every year the zoo gets funner and funner as Boston gets older! He loved the monkeys and giraffes! Dispite being super tired, Hadley stayed awake the whole time, and enjoyed every minute of it!

We even all rode the Merry-Go-Round!

How do you think we measure up to the gorrillas?

My nephews think it is so funny how much I HATE snakes! The love to go in the snake part of the zoo and torment me!! Here they are enjoying the snake slide... even I can handle that!

It was a super fun day at the Zoo! Not to many people, and really not THAT cold.

Oh DEER!


It looks like we better post one of these deer crossing signs on our deck, because that is exactly what happened at 4:30AM!! Scared me to death! All of the sudden I am woken up to a very loud noise, that sounds like an animal galloping on our deck... we knew it wasn't a cat or a dog, because it was so loud. After some discovery of deer prints, and deer droppings all over our snow the case was solved. I hope this NEVER happens again! We love seeing the deer, but that was just a little to close for comfort!

Gotta Love It!

Yesterday: Sidewalk chalk and a sunny walk to see the horses.
Today: Shoveling and Sledding.
Only in Utah.

Front Yard Sledding

It will be a sad day when the "hill" in our front yard isn't big enough to thrill Boston. But for right now, it is just the perfect size for Boston and so very convenient!

January Blues

In Hadley's case, the January Blues are a good thing! I just love this blue dress, it makes her big blue eyes just sparkle!

What is love based on?

Jeremy: Guess What?
Boston: What?
Jeremy: I Love You!
Boston: I Love you too. Do you have some money for me?

WAIT! Boston is way to young to be basing his parents love off of money! Oh dear...

Good Things Utah!

My Mom and I FINALLY went to Good Things Utah, to be a part of the studio audience. I loved seeing the set, meeting the ladies, and seeing how the show comes together. It was so fun to spend some time with my Mom without any kids!

I must say, that watching those ladies made me so jealous. They have my dream job.

I Blinked, And Now She Is 8 Months Old!

Hadley Boo is growing up so fast! She is learning and doing so many new things!!
She sits up like a pro, waves bye-bye, "talks" almost non-stop, loves to eat and eat very loudly, stands with support, grunts, giggles when we read books, loves to spit just for fun, and smiles at just about any one or anything.

Oh how we love our little girl!

Favorite Primary Moments

Unfortunately I can't remember all my favorite Primary moments, but there are three I wanted to share.

-I asked the children what they learned in their classes, and one little 4 year old raised his hand, and in all seriousness said "Learned to do push-ups!" Wait are we running a primary, or an army?
-An older child was giving his talk, and said the "plan of starvation" instead of the plan of salvation. I think he thought he was giving a talk about fasting.
- Another little 4 year old said "God has a big smile, just like me!" I love moments like these. It makes all the time and effort with it.

Randomness

Just a couple random pictures we took this week I wanted to share.

This is little Jeremy getting ready for work

This is Boston pulling Super Girl! They were having so much fun! It is so fun to watch them play together.
