Amber Funny

So we went to Artic Circle to get a ice cream cone last night and Amber has been wanting one of teh dumb bunnies they have forever. I always tell her no she dosen't need another stuffed animal and then we have a huge break down for an hour and she gets over it til she sees them again. Well last night she was begging Nic to get her one and of course he gives in and gets her and Masen one. Well we went and got gas after that and while Nic was out pumping the gas I turned around and told Amber seh was so spoiled and has her Daddy wraped around her finger she then askes what that means so I tell her. Nic gets in the car and Amber proceeds to ask him " Daddy are you wrapped around my finger" and Nic said " Yes ! gosh " and Amber looks and me and said " I knew he would say that" hahahahaha she is such a little princess and I don't know what Nic is going to do if we ever have another girl! He better start to make lots more money at work that is for sure :)

Birthday,Murder Mystary,and another Birthday

Us waiting for the Movie to start!

I Turned the big 24 on the 15th of Febuary! I will be honest I do not feel any different than I did last year , I honestly have a hard time thinking I am still 19 LOL. I had a really good birthday and got super spoiled from my husband and kids! I got a new camera, a digital frame to go with that a shirt some flowers, a new purse from my mom which I LOVE , and a movie and dinner date night with my hubby from the in- laws. Nic took me out to dinner that night and we went and saw When in Rome, I really like the movie and Nic said it was actually pretty good too :) Thanks to my mom and dad for watching the kids so we could have a kid free night!

In Febuary we had a game night with our long lost game night friends :) We had it at our friends Jedd and Darci's house. We did a Murder mystery party, it was lots of fun dreesing up as our characters , playing our parts and trying to figure out who did it with the silly funny story we had. I wish I could remember all the names of everyone cause they were so funny! I remember Cal Q. Later , Dee C. Ducer, and Penny Loafer , but I can't remember all of them. Cal Q. Later aka Matt ended up being the murder! We had lots of fun trying to figure it out an dlistening to everyone else and what they thought happened and who they thought did it. Thank you Jed and Darci for hosting it was so much fun! Hopefully we do something again real soon!

Nic had a birthday on the 28th! He turned the big 26. He too got spoiled this year and got his PSP he has been wanting to get so being the wonderful wife I am I thought I would get it for him :) Masen picked him out a shirt and hat too. Amber picked him out a game to go with the PSP and a game for the PS3. Since his birthday was on a Sunday we didn't go out but we did get take out on Friday for him ssince we had sick kids and no one wanted to watch sick kids for us, which was fine with us :). Happy Birthday Nic I LOVE YOU!!!

Great Quote!

I hope you don't mind I stole thins Brittani! I Love this and read this on my freinds blog on a day I really needed it! I Wanted to share this with everyone!

Crazy Day!

Amber recently had a crazy day at preschool. She thought it was so cool that she got to wear clothes that were crazy ( no maching) and we did a fun crazy hair do that day. Everyone in her class got 100% on their spelling tests so they earned a crazy day. I was so proud of

Amber cause that is one thing she has been struggling with was spelling but we started working harder with her and she started to improve. I was so happy, which in return made her happy cause she knew I was so proud. She even had to call her Daddy and tell him and added at the end of the conversation " Mom is so proud of me" I guess I need to tell her more often how proud of her I am :)

Taylor Swift

So Amber tells me the other day " Mom I love Taylor Swift, you know the girl that sings about Juliet. I still like Hannah Montana but I Love Taylor Swift!" Yes she is only 4!!! What 4 year old even knows who that is????!!!??? Amber does of course she does! This all started cause for Christmas Tiffany got a karaoke machine and it has the Taylor Swift songs on it and Amber loves singing, well she hadn't even ever heard the songs but we were all singing them and she just sat there listening and trying to sing them. Well she came home and this is when the above conversation happened, and she asked if we could get her songs cause she loves them. So we got on the computer and downloaded them now it is all she wants to listen to! In the car, while she is doing her job, while she is playing Taylor Swift! That is right she is always playing that she is Taylor Swift! She is always saying Masen call me Taylor Swift cause that is my new name. Or she will be playing with her little toy phone and answer it saying " Hello this is Taylor Swift calling" all girly like! I am so sick of hearing Taylor Swift songs I could PUKE! Me and Nic will mimic her answering her phone and she gets so mad! It is so funny though cause she will announce to me now " I am playing a game mom, I am not really Taylor Swift I am just pretending" Well thanks for clearing that up cause I was getting really worried their for a minute!! I love my Amber she is such a girl and such a drama queen but that just makes her Amber!

Playing in the Snow!

We went outside to play in the snow! The kids loved it. Masen is always begging to go outside and build a snow man. We were not able to during this snow storm cause the snow was not good packing snow but they still had fun making snow angels and just playing in it and not being stuck inside the house!

Christmas

We had a Great Christmas this year full of lots of family parties and lots and lots of family time! Nic's little sister came home from her mission on the 23rd of Dec. so that was a great Christmas present to have here back! Amber was really funny and for about 2 weeks was counting down the days til she got home. Her and Kim have a good relationship, Kim lived with us for a while and her and Amber got really close. It was funny cause Nic's other little sister Hether is down at Snow college and she came home for Christmas break and I came up stairs and said " Amber guess who is home?" She got all excited and said "Kim ?" I giggled and said no Heather and she was still excited it was just funny to see the expression on her face when she thought it was finally Kim!  Well besides Kim coming home we of couarse had Santa come to our house and I must say we all got pretty spoiled by him! I Love waking up Christmas morning and seeing the expression on the kids faces it is the best feeling ever. We are trying to start some traditons on our own so on Christmas Eve we all opened a present from me and Nic. PJ's of course!  Then we got the kids all dressed in theirs and we went for a drive to look at all the Christmas lights. The kids thought that was fun. Amber got a "Fur Real Pet" it is a baby Panda bear and she is so funny with it she carries it around like her little baby and is so cute with it. She also got a doll house with little people a movie, a baby doll, a barbie doll and so much more. Masen got a Pirate ship with little guys, a car track, lots of cars, a big dump truck and lots more I can't think of. Jaxen got a ball popper, a Animal Train, a Farm, and lots more stuff that is just not coming to mind right now! My kids are not quiet old enough to do the whole wake up at 5,6 and 7 in the morning which I am not complaining about but I am such a little kid and so excited for the to wake up I didn't sleep at all I woke up at 5 , 6, and 7 and finally woke them up at 8 cause I couldn't wait anylonger :). 

This year we also decided even though we didn't have much to give we would still take some tags off of the giving tree in our ward. We sat down with all the kids but Amber listened the most and explained why and what they were. It was so nice to beable to give at Christmas time and know that we were helping other people that needed it more than us! I am so Thankful for the Christmas season and all the wonderful things that happen at this time of the year and all the wonderful things that did happen so long ago.

Amber had a little program she did in preschool it was so cute! I love seeing how much she is growing up. She would walk around the house for a month singing all the songs they were preparing to sing for the program. She also came home on the last day of school before Christmas break with a ginger Bread house aka gram cracker house and a cute little bracelet she got in the gift exchange.
