"twilight"

My sister and I went and saw twilight today. OMG it was so good!!! We have been waiting for it to come to the cheap seats for awhile now. Well it just came out yesterday and Kris made arrangements so that Bryce would watch all the kids so we could go out. I got her to read the series about a month ago. I have been telling her how good it was and finally talked her into reading them. Well it took her about a month to read the whole series. Since she finished she has been bugging me to go see it with her. I kept telling her that I was going to wait til it came to the Paramount and that I wasn't going to pay $9 to watch a movie.

It has been just under a year since I read twilight and had forgot parts of the book. So Kris and I were discussing the book while watching the movie. We had so much fun and can't wait til New Moon comes out in theaters. Maybe we won't be so darn cheap and just go see it when it first comes out in theaters..

New church clothes

On Sunday Colton got to wear his new church outfit. Before we left for church I took a picture of the guys in their white shirt and ties! The boys don't like the clip-on ties and refuse to wear them. Well Jay told them that they could wear one of his if they wanted to. Luckily they had vests to hide the rest of dad's ties.

A child's prayer

The other night Jayden was saying the prayer just before bedtime. In his prayer he asked Heavenly Father to help Barack Obama be a good President. Earlier that day at school he had watched the Inauguration.

Jayden really caught me off guard. Every once in a while he does that. I am so grateful to have such wonderful boys. I love them so much.

Help Wanted

Jay and I are recruiting for our team to go out this summer. If anyone knows of someone that might be interested in installing home security systems let me know. Jay really enjoys working for Platinum Protection. Last year we were in New Jersey and had a lot of fun. We spent time at the pool, did some sightseeing, met new friends, got to eat out at some really good restaurants and attend office parties. The pay is really good. And I must say that Platinum has the best parties (i.e., end of summer, christmas) ever!

Sorry the logo looks kind of bad

I can't figure it out.

My Boys

Last Saturday Jay stopped and bought Jayden a new church outfit because the week before his church pants were totally high waters! I was so embarrassed to see him wear them to church but that's all I had. The boys grow so stinkin fast. One day something will fit then the next time you go to put it on them it is too small. Well on Sunday Grandma wasn't at church to see Jayden's new suit. As soon as we got home from church Jayden told me that he wanted to go down to Grandma's house and show her how handsome he was. So when we went down there we had Karen take pictures of us.
Well Colton was a little upset that he didn't get a new suit. So I gave in and bought him a suit that matches Jayden. When I showed it to him he told me "that's perfect mom". He was so ecstatic. He will get to wear it this Sunday and I will take a picture again.
I am so blessed to have such loving boys (most of the time). I love them and they do catch me off guard at times by the things they say.

You can kind of see my new super cute Modbe dress

that I got for only $5. Thanks Lara!

Uncle Dane

The boys were so excited when Dane suprised us with an unexpected visit. The boys had so much fun playing with him while he was here. They played NERF wars, X-box, Wii, etc. They were sad to see him go. Uncle Dane told them that they need to come see him in Alaska. I don't think that will be possible for a while.
