Park City fun

We had a quick weekend getaway to Park city to enjoy some quiet, friends, and soaking in the hot tub. We had a lot of fun and the kids wished they could all just live together. 

They played ping pong, got in the hot tub, played video games, watched movies, basketball, and they played pool. 

Hot Air Balloon Launch

Billy Blanco's

AWESOME place for lunch or dinner! (Right off the Jeremy Ranch exit) LOVED their lettuce wrap tacos. If you are ever up that way go check them out. Many great bikes and cars, awesome decor, and great service!

 Girls teaming up to get Taylor

Abigail were in heaven being able to sleep in the same room. Once day we will find them glued together... Literally! 

WinterJam 2016

We had such a fun night at the 2016 Winter Jam! We got to see Mathew West, MY FAV,  Crowder Band, Brit Nicole, New-song, Steven Malcolm, Sara Reeves,  OBB, 

Red, Mandissa, KB, and Teddashi, 

Many of our favorites! Abby and her friend danced ALL NIGHT LONG! About 15 minute left Abby pretty much crashed out so we left to get home and get in bed. She LOVES going to the Christian Rock concerts. It was 10 Bands for $10 started at 6:30 and ended around midnight. Was awesome! 

Meet the Author

We got to meet Brandon Mull

 Got a first edition in hardcover for free from a very nice

man who was there to get books signed. 

He said he just happened to have 1 extra. and then bought the rest on paperback. 

He was nice enough to sign each book! Abby is on book 1, Don is finished, and I am on book 5. We have all enjoyed this series and are now going to start the Beyonders series.  Don and I did our's on audio books but I will read these again with Abigail.

I absolutely LOVE that she can get lost in a book like I did at her age. There is nothing better then reading.

WooHooo

We are excited! 

Sequel series to Fablehaven • Coming March 14, 2017

Kendra and Seth are back in a whole new adventure. An uprising of dragons threatens to destroy the magical preserves as well as overrun the nonmagical world. In ancient times, Dragonwatch—a group of wizards, enchantresses, dragon slayers, and others—confined the majority of dragons to sanctuaries. That effort is now crumbling. Dragonwatch must be reunited. The dragons must be stopped.

fire saftey

Abigail got to learn from the WJPD and the WJFD tonight about fire safety and safe handling with the canine officers. The girls loved being able to interact with these guys, I am very thankful they were able to come spend an hour with out troop. They got to watch the canine find hidden drugs, watch him get a "bad guy", and patiently answered every question one of the girls had for the moment. 

Bangs

Abigail and I went and had our hair done. While there she asked to have her hair cut short (dad said NO) and she wanted bangs. We compromised. A little more trimmed off but no bangs. So come Sunday we woke up to bangs. Abby cut them all by herself! She even crimped them so we wouldn't notice... Pretty smart because I almost did not notice...

practical jokes

Just because I think I am funny....
