I have twins!

I'm not saying my husband acts like a baby. I just think he is as cute as one. And I sure do love them Both. Life is great!

Saturday Night Out

Because all of our husbands work late on Saturdays we try and plan something fun to make the day go by faster. Last Saturday we all went to Costa Vida and then to the Super Target across the street. Costa Vida was delicious and Target was a blast. We had 3 carts, 6 adults and 5 kids.

Taya, Hailey, Kendra, Branson, Jen, Kayson, Emily, Kelly, Grace and I. And baby Sienna was on the ground in her car seat.

Dolls

A few months ago i saw my friend Dena and she had just made some dolls for her daughter. I thought they were the cutest things! So, i tried, but was not very successful. These are proof of my attempt to make something handmade for Grace. See them professionally here.

Fly

There has been a fly in our house for almost a week! Or maybe 6 different ones, i swear i have killed one everyday. He flies around bugging the heck out of me. But not Grace. She has become quite fond of him. She even giggles at him. He lands about 2 feet in front of her and just as she tries to poke him he flies another 2 feet. Now she can crawl.

Today he (the fly) landed on the metal wisk she was playing with, Grace twirled the wisk and he was off... to the couch, so she crawled over and pulled herself up to try and poke him. Maybe we do owe this fly at least a roof over his head, for finally teaching our daughter that being in one spot is not so fun after all.

Yuck! Nevermind.

Favorite pick of the day

I found Grace like this after we got home from a fun outing at the hobby shop with Daddy. I know, she has some boogers, but i think the picture is so darn cute!

2 Lucky Years

This is my FAVORITE dessert. The lemon bar brulee.

Over a nice dinner at Claim Jumpers, we talked about the things we have done this past year: Successful summer with work, new house, car, baby, ran (well sorta) a 5k, worked some more, and about the things we would like to do for the next year. It was so nice to be out together.

Utah

While we were home for a few days we were able to see my friends Lindsay and Lauren, spend some time on the lake, shopping with Jenilyn & Wes, and lunch with our Argentine cousin Leah and cousin Sara. JP had to work but it was fun to see him for 5 min before we headed up the canyon.
(Craig Collette skiing, Craig Marty was driving (and very good at it), me trying to see if i have any balance anymore wake boarding)

Peterson Reunion 2008

Every year we look forward to the Peterson reunion.This years reunion was so much fun.. Lots of family, fun games and FOOD. We celebrated Melissa's birthday on Friday night(cake). And then Jenny's on Sunday(ice creme). In between, we had church(delicious chicken), made cute stepping stones, the legendary sawdust hunt(snickers, twix, reeses, licorice and animal crackers), and a sweet surprise.... Leah and Sara (my cousins) came up to play games with us(7 layer dip).

Our apologies to Dan and Kanessa (who had to share a room with us) for not letting them get any sleep. We finally found out TODAY why Grace woke every hour during the night.. she popped another bottom tooth!

Surprise!

This weekend while we were at our family reunion Josh surprised me with this bad boy! I was so excited i almost cried. I have SO much to learn, and cant wait to get started.

Big Girl

that she loves.

FUN

The other night we went and played lazer tag. Hill beat EVERYONE with 2600 points. I was so confused when i finished and had 0 points. I asked the guy and he told me that I just must have been hit more times than i shot others. haha

Candy Shop

On Saturday Hill, Ellie, Emily, Randi, Hailey, Taya, Sienna, Kelly, Grace and I all went down town to the Hamonds Candy Factory. The sweet cinnamon smell as we pulled up made my mouth water, along with all the yummy candy we got to touch in the shop. So much FUN! Afterward we all went to lunch at the Denver Diner. It was the cutest old fashioned restaurant and Grace and I shared some roast beef au jus.

Boulder, Co

We went with family and friends up to Boulder for some scenic views, and it was beautiful! Grace loved being outside with her Daddy and smiled and screamed ( a happy one) for a good majority of the time.

Cari and Alec

Beautiful new couple.
