Ice Fishing

Carrie and Jason took me, Nick and Camryn ice fishing for my birthday. We had a blast. I have never been before. We were only out on the ice for an hour. We didnt catch anything, but it was still fun. Can't wait till next time.
 
 Carrie made homemade hot coco for the girls.



2012 Christmas

 
Christmas this year was a little wild. Camryn is starting to get the Santa idea. All the kids were spoiled big time. (no surprise)
 
 
 Camryn's new kitchen from Santa. She loves it, and uses it everyday.

 Lanie and her puzzles, Camryn plays with them more.
 Shaylee's face is pricless.
 The boys
Now lets see how much money actually makes it into that piggy bank. haha

Our Vernal Christmas

This past Christmas we were able to go to Vernal for Christmas. We haven't been able to go the past 5 years. We only had Camryn this year, so it was kinda weird not having the other kids. Instead of the traditional Christmas....dad took us rabbit and coyote hunting. It was a blast, even though we actually never seen one coyote, lots of tracks though. I shot 2 rabbits, Nick shot 2, and dad shot 1. It was a fun trip until we started skinning and gutting. YUCK!! One of the best Christmas's I have had in a long time.





Girls Dance Recital

Abby and Lanie are in the Steps dance company. They had a recital last December. They both did so awesome. Abby actually had a solo part. I love going and watching them.

This is both Abby and Lanie right before the dance recital.

If any of my kids know how to shake the hips....it is Lanie!

 Miss Abby....
My future dancer....she had to have her pic taken also.....such a little diva!

Time to catch everyone up.

It has been crazy for the past 5-6 months. We have all been in school, except for little Camcam. The girls are doing great in school this year. Enjoying their teachers and friends. We have had our hands full with Camryn's accident, dance, school and church.
Abby is 6th grade, her last year in Elementary school. She is involved in a dance company. She has been doing jazz and lyrical for the past 2 years. She is recently changing to ballroom and hip-hop. Shaylee has been doing super in school, she is in 4th grade. She is taking piano lessons once a week, and loves it and is doing really well.
Lanie is doing better in school, has been improving a lot. She is in 1st grade, but still the size of a kindergartner. She is also involved in a dance company. She loves it and is super flexible.
Camryn is just...well....Camryn the holy terror of the house. She can manage to tear apart the house in about 20 mins flat. Take me 3 hours to clean, then I turn around and she has it back to the way she likes it. She is doing really well since her accident. There is a little bit of black eyes, they said that they might not go away till spring/summer. She has no sign of it ever happening. Although she is terrified to go by a TV. :)
Tayler is in 6th grade, and doing well. He just received his priesthood in church. He is growing up fast.
Nick is still attending WGU. He is working on his bachelors degree. He is not as motivated as he wished he was, or as much I wish he was. lol He is working a lot at the college, and trying to keep up with things at the house.
I just finished my last semester at UVU last December. I am know attending Provo College. I am in doing my pre-nursing classes. Which happened to be the hardest class that I have ever taken....Anatomy and Chemistry. I am really enjoying it. I will be starting my nursing program this fall, hopefully! We are trying to keep up with life and all the curve balls that it throws at us.
We are all looking forward to summer. With all the snow and the cold temps, we have been kinda cooped up in the house. Looking forward to the summer sports, the swimming, camping and the summer trips to Vernal.
