SUPERBOWL TIME!

Sunday was the SUPERBOWL and it was an AWESOME GAME! We got home from our trip and prepared all the goodies and necessities for it! It was a great family affair and the kids really got into it! We all love the STEELERS and were way excited when they made it to the Superbowl! Everyone was cheering together and had a great time! Dallin did especially as he would yell "GO, GO, GO!" and wave his TERRIBLE TOWEL! He loved it and got extra excited when Daddy did! We were all on the edge of our seats the whole time as it was a very suspenseful game! The girls were eating constantly and at one point Mekayla said, "Oh I can't eat anymore, but it is SOOO GOOD!!" She wanted to eat and eat but her stomach wouldn't allow her to, so we would find her over at the goodie table picking at things here and there throughout the game! We had kind of thrown in the towel by the end because our team didn't seem to be doing so hot, but then here came the TOUCHDOWN that won it all! Brett was running and screaming and throwing Dallin up in the air and even if he doesn't admit it, I saw some tears building in his eyes as he tried to hide his head! Anyway, WE WON! And that's # 6 for the Steelers and we are all still very proud of that fact! Arizona put up a great fight for it, but in the end the Steel Curtain won! YEAH!

Our family the last few months!

Wow, Okay it's been a long time since I've updated! Sorry! Well here goes the latest in our neck of the woods! Brett and I celebrated our 8th anniversary on Jan. 4th and can't believe how quick it's gone by! It's been a great 8 though! We managed to get to go out to dinner the day before and then just this last weekend Jeremy and Stacy were nice enough to watch our kids for the weekend so we could get away! Thanks guys! We went down to Orem to where we began and had a great time reminising about how much fun we've had!

We are excited this month because our girls are going to be in their first ice skating competition. You are all invited to come! It's Feb. 21st at the Eccles Ice Center! It's called the Beginner's Cup and they can actually win a medal. They have been taking private lessons for the last month and are really excited to perform and dress up while "dancing" on the ice! They are so adorable out there and are loving watching each other succeed!

Dallin is sure a handful, but I've noticed that he gets to be more so when he is tired! I'm learning his tricks! HA HA! He's discovered how to turn on the dishwasher to his mother's dismay and I get so frustrated having 1 1/2 times clean dishes! He's started the timeouts and knows when he's done something wrong because he will just sit down where ever he is! He's quite to sports fan too! He'll watch sports center with Brett and say BALL at least 100 times! He's really glued to it and just watches for his chance to see a ball again! Brett just loves it!

I just recently did a contest like the biggest losers only it was smokin' hot mamas with my mom and home town girls! It was a challenge, but I came in 6th place I guess and that's not bad for a beginner in this madness! I lost 7 pounds and 1 1/2- 3 inches in some places! I was pretty excited to be getting back into shape and having success at it! It's a cool contest that not only encourages you to get in shape but to have a healthier out look on life! Anyway, that's been my latest achievement!
