Morning fun

These cute girls wanted to play dress up and have a tea party. I decided to go all out and got on a dress up of my own :) we did hair and make up, they did mine, found fancy jewlery, and then danced to princess music. After my 4 mile run this morning dancing and tea party was exhausting but we had a great time!! Love these cute girls. 

Go Jazz

Grandma and Papa gave us tickets to the Jazz game for Christmas and we went over the weekend. The kids had a blast and loved having the signs that Taylee helped them make. We had great seat, just second row on the upper balcony. Thanks Grandma and Papa for a great gift!!

Pictures from the cabin that I forgot to post. 

Last Thursday was just one of those days! Macall and Avri would not leave each other alone. They have been fighting more and just being mean to each there so I decided to separate them for a few hours. Macall went with Sheryl and August out and about and Avri and I went to lunch and then she played with Conner. They both enjoyed themselves and their time apart.

Ouch

We got to the cabin today about 10:30 and by 11:30 we were back in the car headed to Rexburg to the ER. The boys were wrestling and Braxton was hit in the chin and bit a huge hole in his tongue! OUCHY! We went to the medical center in Island Park but there was no Dr in today. The nurse looked at it and said we had better head to Rexburg. We got to the ER and went right back. All the nurses and the student PA were pretty impressed with the cut. The Dr came in and said they don't normally stitch the tongue but this one was pretty bad. They got him ready and put some numbing gel on his tongue. He was so brave as they started. Since I was on the other side of the dr they gave me the suction and gauze and I assisted the Dr. Pretty sure I still paid premium price as I did the nurses job :) Brax didn't budge as the dr put in the 2 stitches. He did cry but he held still and did great!

It's the boys last week off track so we headed up to the zoo with friends. It was such a nice day to be out and about.

The boys have been waiting all year to play Jr Jazz. We set up a team of friends and they are having a great time. At this game together they scored 21 points. Way to go boys!!

Justin had got tickets to the Jazz game from work but this time they ended up being awesome suite tickets. A guy he works with was supposed to go with us but his wife had to work so Beckstrom's came. We tried to get the guys to take a picture with us but they wouldn't have it. The game was getting long so we took lots of selfies and had a good laugh.

Last Thursday we met up with Leslie and her kids for a little play time at Chick-Fil-A. We got great pictures :-)

So fun to see all these munchkins together because when we met Ryan and Leslie we didn't have any kids.
