Jaxen's Blessing!

We blessed Jaxen on Aug. 16. It was a great blessing given by his daddy Nic and he had all of his Grandpa's and uncles in the circle that could stand in. We had the blassing in the morning at 9:00 in sacrament meeting and then had everyone come over after to grandma Christensen's and had a little breakfast refereshments. We got a bunch of muffins and bagles with cream cheese then some fruit and juice and Milk to drink. It turned out really nice. My mom always gets thir blessing outfits for them. The one she got for Jaxen me and Jenni found down in Ephrium at the Co op when we were down there for Scandinavian days. We told my mom about it and her and Jenni rode down there to see if they could still find it. They got down there and they didn't have anymore but the company that makes them was out of Manti so they kept driving and found one last one at the place! I was so happy they found it. It is a little shorts and shirt with a vest out fit it is crocheted. It is white but has just a little bit of light blue thread wound in to it. Thanks Mom for finding the perfect outfit for him!

Amber's 4th Birthday

My little Amber turned 4 on July 24th!! I can't beleive I have a 4 year old! We love Amber so much! She is such a girl and so dramatic about everything. She loves to sing and play house. Pink is her favorite color and she already loves to shop but only when she gets something, she dosen't care what it is but she always wants something a shirt, pants, hair accsesories, anything! She is so funny she loves to pse for the camera you get it out and tell her to say cheese and she has to make sure she is doing a different pose before you can take the picture. She love to tell people she has a baby sister " Rainbow" in her mommies tummy but she isn't coming out yet. She just wants a little sister so bad or just another girl in the family we don't know which one. I think the whole primary thinks I am expecting again cause she alwas has to include her baby sister rainbow in any picture or thing they do about familys. We have know idea why she says rainbow it use to be sparkles. Another cute story about Amber is when Jaxen was in teh hospital after he was born she would ask me if I saw her fairy friend in there with Jaxen and I would ask her who it was and she said it was her fairy friend sparkles and she was with Jaxen and was putting her fairy magic on him to make him better so he can come home. She is the best big sister she does love to tease and get a reaction out of Masen but she loves them and is always wlooking out for both of them. For her birthday we were in Cedar city with my moms brother Scotts family for a baby blessing so a couple days before we left we had a little party here at our house with Nic's family and our friends. She had lots of fun, she got a slip and slide so we got that out and they all had tons of fun playing on it! Then while we were in Cedar City we had some cake and icecream for her at Scotts house and she got to open presents from everyone down there. It was so cute my cousin from Las Vegas was there and they have 2 little boys, they got her a Tinker Bell house. SHe came to show it to me an dshe said " Look mom those handsome boys gave this to me" hahahaha it was so funny. Happy Birthday Baby Girl! We Love you

Hair bows

If anyone needs some cute little girl hair bows and clips go to kylaskreations.blogspot.com. I went to high school with Jen and grew up in the same ward as her husband. She does such a great job.

Plane Ride, Swimming, and Fun in the Sand Box!

For the 4th of July we went down to Manti and camped in the RV park in Manti. It was lots of fun, we went swimming played cards and walked up to the temple one night so Amber could see where Me and Nic got married! We even rolled down the hill for a while with them. The kids thought that was great. On the 4th we went into town the the Activities in the park and Todd and Connie flew a plane down so Todd took all of us on a plane ride. Amber and Masen though that was the best thing ever. I wasn't to sure about it at first but we got up in the air and it wasn't so bad I only go sick when I looked down at the kids and back up again :)

We have also been having lots of fun int the sand box out back this summer! And even made Amber a Mermaid. Masen didn't want the sand all over him so he wasn't a Merman.

ONe more little side note since Jaxen wasn't in any of these pictures. Here are some pictures of him playing with his favorite toy horse, the Easter bunny brought him while he was still in my tummy. He love it, it is fun to watch him grab it and eat it. He had his 2 moth appointment and weighed in at 13 LBS and was 24 inches tall. He is growing so much and it amkes me sad how fast it goes by. By the way he was with us in Manti he just didn't go on the plane. ( Todd said we better leave him on the ground so if we did crash one of our kids would still be around :) ) and

He was to little to get in the pool since the water was like Ice cold.

Happy Birthday Masen!!

Masen turned 2 years old on June 30th (today). He had such a great day and got lots of fun stuff from everyone! (thanks again). We had a little party at the park by our house and just had water guns for all the kids to playwith and I think they all enjoyed that. Jenni made him a "Pop-Pop Truck" cake. Thanks Jen you did an amazing Job! He thought it was the best thing about the party. He saw it on the table and just wanted to play with the trucks on the cake and make them dig up the cake. Masen is such a fun little boy and we are so glad he is in our family we love him so much and he is such a boy. He loves anything that has to do with construction. We say he got his Grandpa Christensens genes in him for sure. Nic's dad has dump trucks and Masen calls them all Pop- Pop trucks. HE always wants to be helping grandpa with the trucks when he is out back fixing them. He thinks it is the best thing ever when Pop-Pop lets him sit in it while he is working on them, he loves when he gets to go on rides too and I don't hink he ever stops smiling when he gets to go around the block on a ride to turn the truck around. Driving down the rode all you can hear is him finding all the Pop-Pop trucks in all the construction parts. HE si such a dady's boy and when Nic gets home he wants nothing to do with me and everything to do with his dad. We love him and can't beleive he is already 2.

Lehi Rodeo

We went to the rodeo this year and it was so much fun! Nic designed a bunch of the banners for the sponsors and all or the lehi round-up banners for the arena so IG signs go some tickets for the rodeo, and Nic was one of the lucky ones to get some of the tickets. Amber and Masen loved it. Amber loves horses so she thought it was the bestthing ever. We had 2 extra tickets so Jenni,Jake and Dakota came with us. It was so much fun I haven't been to the rodeo since I was pregnant with Amber and I didn't make it through all of that one cause I was so huge and pregnant it was to uncomfortable to sit on the benches for to long. Jaxen was so good through it. One of the receptionist from Alpin Pediatrics was sitting in front of us with her mom and they ended up taking him half way through and held him through the whole thing. It was nice to just have to worry about the other 2 kids. The middle show was some motorcycle guys doing tricks on the motorcycles so Dakota was in heaven being as obsessed as he is with them and Masen was in heaven cause they had a loader bringing out the jump for the motorcyle. So both boys were happy until those were gone then Dakota had a melt down cause he wanted the motorcyles to come back, he didn't care about the bulls or anything else anymore. Amber loved ait and is still talking about the bucking horses adn bulls and how she doesn't want to ride one of those ones but wants to ride a horse.
