Settlers

Our friends Sam and Collette have gotten us addicted to this game. I absolutely love it. i think that we play at least 2 times a week. If anyone is looking for a good game, look for Settlers of Catan. And oh by the way, I think that I have only won 2 out of 15 games!

Easter




This easter we were invited to eat dinner with some friends up in fort collins. We decided to stay overnight up there with Tiffany and Ryan. It was awesome! I really enjoyed spending time with a bunch of people that we know. I realize just how much I miss it when I am around everyone.


Lucky for Aiden and Hunter, the Easter bunny followed then up to fort Collins. It left a ton of candy, two small carebears, the BEE movie and a car for each of them. He also hid eggs in plain sight for them to find. They got a kick out of the eggs. I can't think of a better way to spend easter that with people you love!

Easter Eggs





We dyed eggs for family home evening this week. I am so glad that easter is only once a year. It was a ton of fun but I thought that the kids were going to overturn the color for the eggs. They kept grabbing at the cups with no regard to what was inside. They also would drop the eggs into the cups so the dye would splash all over. It was scarry but a lot of fun. The eggs turned out great!

!!!Guitar Hero Champion!!!

Well I thought that it would only be right to let my cousing know that I am proud of him. I would always give him a hard time when I went to Idaho and played him at Guitar Hero. He would beat me most of the time.

He entered a contest in Idaho Falls and guess what he Won!!! Congrats Bridger, he probably won't even know that I posted this but I thought that it would only be right thing to do to give him a shout out.

For those of you who live in Idaho Falls and get the Post Register he is on the Front Page, yes
that is right THE FRONT PAGE, not only on the front page but the biggest picture on the front page for the SUNDAY February 24th's news paper.

So congrats and next time I come to Idaho I will have beat you sometime!!

13.1 MILES


So a couple of my Fort Collins friends and I ran a 4 mile race this past thanksgiving. We all thought that is was so much fun that we decided to do it again. Only this time a little longer of a race. As in 3X longer. That is right. We decided to do a half marathon. Maybe we are crazy. My friend Erica and I are following a training schedule, and have passed it on to others that want to do it with us. So far it is Erica, Jeannine, Tiffany, Jill and I. Any other takers? We are just trying to finish it. Not set any time goals, except for Jeannine--that girl can run!!! Wish me luck and I will keep you updated!


PS Christopher is bring me a treadmill home today! I am so excited!


8 things about Aiden and Hunter

Aiden--
1. He loves anything disney car related. He won't even play with matchbox cars anymore.
2. The only other toys he will play with are trains. He really likes his thomas.
3. He would watch TV all day every day if I let him. He is the calmest (read lazy) boy i have ever met.
4. Aiden will pee his pants at night just so he can put on his cars PJs. We have had many talks about him just having to ask to put them on but...
5. He is fiercely loyal to Hunter and me. he will always stick up for us. It is quite intertaining.
6. He has duel personalities. When he is tired or grumpy or around his auntie Johnie he likes to be called Bubba.
7. He likes to sleep with a head lamp so he can read before he falls asleep.
8. He loves to talk. He will tell me story after story

Hunter--
1. She is a goof ball. She loves to have fun.
2. She has learned that the quickest way to ingage her brother is to steal his Thomas or his Cactus McQueen. She will grab it and run.
3. Hunter is the messiest eater I have ever met. Hands down. That girl has ruined more shirts that I care to think about. When she eats anything red now I strip her down.
4. She likes to follow everyone around. She doen't like to be by herself.
5. She thinks she can do everything everyone else is doing. It is pretty funny to see her trying to do things that only people twice her size can do.
6. She loves to have her hair blow dried. If I am doind it in the morning she wants to also.
7. She is a binky and blankie girl. She will not sleep if she doesn't have both.
8. She is a chronic pucker. Anything can make her gag and throw up. I have learned that even if she is gagging only a little to run her to the bathroom! Quite funny!

I tag Landon, Cole, Chase and Porter!
