Confession of a Shopaholic


Me and Amber went to this movie over the weekend while the boys were away fishing, it is a movie you definitely would enjoy seeing. Atleast Amber and I did. I think that I laughed through 85% of the movie or even more. I'm pretty sure that Amber did the same. If you haven't seen it yet I recommend it.

The Temple Challenge

I have been wanting to post this for a while but I just haven't. One day I told Clint that we need to go to the temple we hadn't been for a while so we wanted to challenge ourselves this year. So since the first week in February we promise each other that we would go to the temple at least once a month and if we didn't make it to the temple that month then we couldn't treat ourselves to dinner. We have been grateful to be able to have gone twice in February. The temples we have around us are so beautiful and have their own unique style and design. So I hope that we can do our challenge once a month. It seems to become harder when you start a family you don't get very many opportunities to attend. I think if we have a temple close by I think we should all take the opportunity to attend. I know that having your kids makes it hard to find that babysitter or you don't want to bombard people with your kids but if we keep putting it off the easier it is to just not to attend. So I hope that everyone that reads my blog takes this challenge for themselves and if you have already done such a challenge GREAT!


Picture's

I wanted to play around today with my camera a little bit and adjust the color on some of the picture's. Of course, it's was when your girls love there picture's taken. But Kassidee didn't want to join in all the fun. Who knows where she was at.
SWEET BABY GIRL!

BIG SIS! LITTLE SIS!




Wii be BOXING!

We had Bryan and Amber over last night for dinner. Then Clint wanted everyone to play the Wii. We started out with bowling then we headed to the tennis matches, then the boxing came along. Of course the husbands wanted to challenge there wives, so of course we didn't turn them down. Clint and Bryan started first then it was Clint and me. (If you have never played the boxing before you definitely get a work out, but it's fun.) When it was my turn I was definitely up to the challenge of kicking Clint's Butt! Yes! Yes! I did. I definitely knocked my husband out not only once but twice. Amber never got the chance to knock her husband out I think she got a little tuckered out! Bryan knocked her out. That's just to bad that she didn't get that opportunity to do so, all husband need to see what there women are made of.
After we were all done wearing ourselves out we turn sometime over to the kids. The kids had a ball. Garrett against Kassidee and Makayla against Brynlee. It was fun watching the kids get wore out just like us. I guess if you're looking for a way to get two 4 year old's, one 3 year old, and a 2 year old to get tired we found the solution. Get them the Wii!

Round One! You are definitely going down! Round two! Down again. Round three! Mandee you are the Champion!
Go Amber! Go Amber! There was nothing but Mr. Serious in this round!j/k Amber put up a good fight.

I am the Champion my friend I'll keep on fighting to the end! YAAAA!

Go Kassi, box that boy OUT!

Brynlee and Makayla! Round One: Very tuff little GIRLS! Round Two: Mom my arms are getting tired. Round three: Let's go girls don't give up.

"Garrett you better not hurt my little girl." Kassi kick his BUTT!
We finished the boxing rounds and ended the night by playing Mario Kart. I think that we all enjoyed playing the games. Maybe next time we will do a different challenge.

Here's Me trying to play the guitar. Do you think I was successful at it or what? If you thought I was, you were wrong. Not my best talent!
Clint playing the guitar and Me playing the drums. Do you think that we were successsful this way? We actually were. It said We ROCK!

So I found out that I need to become a drummer and Clint needs to become and guitar player.
We are now the Wage Rockers!



Hebgen Lake

Hebgen Lake

Clint and I headed up to the cabin last weekend to go ice fishing on Hebgen Lake. My parents and my Buddy E was there. My dad has been wanting to try the ice fishing up there since him and Clint went to the Lake by Alpine. I don't know who has more fun the kids playing with the fish or the men. Clint ended up catching one of the biggest fish that day.(20 incher) Then to top that off I think Ethan and my dad caught the fatest fish it had to be atleast 3 inches thick. Me, I atleast caught one and it was about 17 to 18 inches long. But I of course was wanting to catch more but that never happened. And then there was my mom, she never even dared to step out on the ice until the 2nd day and she didn't even catch a fish so we told her that she was bad luck.(she did step out on the ice the first day but it was really slushy so she only stayed for a few minutes.) The kids of coarse just enjoyed playing in the snow! Makayla reeled in one fish, Kassidee didn't really care about the fishing, and well Dakota if she could of reeled one in she probably would have but as for now I think the fish were her size. To be completely honest I think it was just fun being out on the ice and enjoying the company.
