Family visit

my brother warren and his fam were down in utah for a couple of weeks staying with my brother jamie. warren lives in arizona, so its hard to see them sometimes. we were lucky enough to make the trip down to utah this weekend and play:) one friday i went to a relief society birthday party sleepover with my two sister in laws. we played games, and had a guest speaker, and dinner, it was really fun. one of the games was a who's line is it anyway thing, and i was playing a kid. so i was the first person up, and some of the other sisters there shouted out "who are you?" i was like "i'm a kid" and they were like "no in real life!" i forgot i was just visiting, and these ladies didn't know me.... anyway it was really funny, maybe you had to be there. then on saturday we had lunch at my sister kim's house and played games (which i won, totally a surprise because my siblings kick butt at games, i never win) so here is a picture of me and my 3 oldest siblings.....one of my other sisters was on a sweet anniversary trip, and came back to utah to pick up her kids from kims house, so she couldn't take a picture with us until today....
also here's some of the grandkids (we're missing shaina's and rebekah's kids)...
also, jayners was having a sandwich and cousin eli decided to join in... how cute!
I LOVE MY FAMILY, i just can't wait until our reunion in august:)

Terry Fator... Ventriloquist

Darick took me to watch a Terry Fater show. He was on America's got Talent, and won. He's a Ventriloquist, but he sings and talks for the puppets, and is seriously amazing. i personally think he sounds better when he sings for his puppets, then by himself, it was just really cool. i had a great evening. i took some videos.... but something happened to them, so here's some youtube....

bouncing and sniffing

here's another video of jayne, have you ever seen the sniffing accountant episode of Seinfeld? jayne, keeps sniffing! She aslo learned a new way to play with her bouncer

Shiner

Darick was playing basketball on friday, and got elbowed.... this is the result. i think it makes him look so ruggedly handsome:) he's my dream boat

ELi

this is my nephew Eli... i watched him a couple of days ago, and he was making some pretty cute faces. soooo cute in fact, i had to post them.

name?

i made another dollie, molly needed a friend, but she needs a name! here she is

Family

So i know that many of you have seen this pic on my sister kim's blog, but for those of you that view this and aren't in my family, here's a sweet picture of my visit to utah. i got to see my sister shaina as she was moving to south carolina, and catch up with and sister kim and brother jamie.... courtney lives here in the idaho falls area, but it was nice to be together, i just wish the rest of us could have made it (by the rest of up, i mean there's 10 kids in my fam, pictured here are 5 of us:)
PS- durring this pic, jamie had some really bad gas and none of up wanted to be around that part of him, but kim can't smell anyway, so she was the lucky one... haha sorry jamie:)

Shaina...me...kim...courtney... and my bro james laying across us

For your viewing pleasure

For those who haven't seen jayne for a while, here is a little video, i was trying to get her to look at me from under her legs, that's why it starts out as a booty shot...but she was trying to ignore me i think. Enjoy!

Cindy

our puppy dog cindy is so old, she's about 14 or 15 in human years, and she still has so much spunk left in her. she's a great guard dog, and she does some pretty sweet tricks including rolling over and "sittin' pretty." she was daricks mom's dog so she has a special place in our hearts. here's to you cindy.

peek ah boo

when jayne wakes up, and she doesn't feel like standing up in her crib, she always lifts up the little bumper to see what's going on, she watched as darick and i tried to find her binky. she's just so cute

i will return soon....

well, for those who have been missing me, it's hard for me to post without any pictures, and my camera died, so we bought a new one, and it should be here any day now. so i will have a ton of new things when i can put up some pictures too. i'm still here, i just don't know what to write about... i'm more of a show and tell person.
