Second week in Colorado
These pictures tell all what our second week in Colorado was like! But it doesn't show the INFESTO!!! as I liked to call it! Everyone got sick. Belle... the day after Christmas threw up so much and was sick for 2 days with a crazy temp, Maya got sick, Afton, everyone was hacking their lungs out, and Cash got so sick. Poor kid threw up, never slept, had a 103 temp, and he was doing this spasm things... we took him to the ER - not serious... Doctors wouldn't see him for a one time visit so ER was our option. He ended up having a really bad virus and some major constipation problems. Which I learned is a side effect from too much benadryl -which he took almost everyday from sneaking dairy here and there. Least to say even though everyone including myself was not their best we had a blast! We got to do so much. We got Stace's girl's and all Jenn's kids... oh and Luke and packed it up and went to the mall. Luke big fetch head knows I love BULLDOGS so he asked the lady if I could hold one of the babies in the back. I would have bought that thing instantly... good thing it was 1200 dollars. So it stayed at the pet store. Then we hit up the gum ball madness machines. Monkey, Luke, Ben, and Ammon were going through each one to see if the could find free ones! Hahah we got hungry and went to McD's and the kids were cracking me up as they played! I love cousins!! Then our sweet sister Tanna took Belle and Cash one night so Monkey and I could celebrate our anniversary! We went to the temple where we were married which was so needed. We went out to eat at a place called Alexander's..... Oh mercy did I fall in love. I had prime rib and a side of mac and cheese. I wish I had a tub full of that mac! I asked the waiter if they sold it in buckets! Monkey and I laughed and he even wrote me a letter he forgot to bring... so I made him say it at the table! Of course it was beyond cheesy but I loved every word. Then we went to my brother Mike's who let us stay the night as their family was out of town. We went home around 10pm and talked forever and totally fell asleep... It was fabulous! Thank you Tanna for taking them and giving us a date we have not had out since this last summer! Later that week Jenn, Lino, Tanna, Monk, and I went on a day outing. We ate at a delicious Vietnamese place... Spring rolls best I have ever ate! We shopped for maternity clothes for J, and skipped a theater movie and went to Mike's and watched a different movie! LOVELY day is all I have to say! The rest of the week was spent playing on i pods, watching movies, going crazy at the church, playing snow baseball, laughing, eating, running into walls....BELLE, Teaching Maya how to sew, Tanna getting us Chili's take out, Chick Fa La runs (is a must for me), Going out one afternoon with my best friend growing up Jenna, (We had some good Pad Tai and I created my most humiliating moment of my life! I was in Forever 21 and I tried a dress on in the middle of the store over my clothes. Too tight, so I took it off and with it came my entire shirt!!! HAHAH I freaked and Jenna frantically tried to help me IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STORE- I finally got myself together and booked it our of the store! Shoot me!), Making bows, eating more, Oh and having a NEW YEARS EVE PARTY! We chilled at my parents house and made our own cold stone and had music and busted some moves and I almost fell asleep at 10pm!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Christmas in Colorado!
Christmas in Colorado.... enough said! My whole family was there besides Nat and her family and my parents. I have to say that not having my parents there was a bit hard for me. But I guess if they couldn't be there then a mission is the only place I would be okay with. I got to Colorado and it was nothing but wonderful! I stayed at my house, which Jenn's family lives for now. My kids were so excited to see everyone!
We started our trip just hanging out and watching my darling nephew Nikson! I got to go up to G and Stace's house to meet my new nephew Jace!What a beautiful little boy. He for sure made me so excited for our little boy to come!Then we got to go for a swim and every night watched Wallace and Grommit which is Cash's new obsession! I mean new obsession he bawls his eyes out if he can't watch the movie for the 10th time in a row!
Then it happened.... The snow! It came and came and I was thrilled! Forest Grove does not snow! No it does not! We got Belle out there and everyone else joined and I stayed in with Lydia and Cash watching out the window. The kids and my big kid Monkey looked like they were having a blast! Monkey was jumping off everything, tackling BEN... poor Ben, digging and Ammon and Ben made a killer fort hole thing! Belle finally had it after she biffed it off the igloo!
Then they came home and everyone warmed up with a rockin dance party. And Jenn won best dressed at Walmart!!! Haaha just kidding Jenn! Later in the week we had all the Jones kids over! We danced, had a modeling show, Charly I decided is the next Taylor Swift, and played our hearts out!
Christmas Eve morning we met Ryan and Charlie at our sledding hill! Cooper and Belle were lovin each other! They were flyin down the hill by THEMSELVES and crashed and just layed on the snow! And ate it! I went down and to my surprise I headed straight for a huge jump!!! Good thing I am pregnant and weigh a lot extra because I didn't even make it up the jump! I just ran into it! Then Ben ran into me and we layed there and laughed forever!
Our first week of the trip was out of this world fun! Christmas Eve all the kids seemed so giddy! How could they not be... Santa was coming. Cash was walking around singing Santa Clause is comin to town! And I really enjoyed sitting on the couch the only thing missing was my Mom sitting with me laughing and my Dad walking in and out of the room saying it's almost time!!! We all ate so much already and WOW does my fam know how to make killer food! We all got ready to head over to Allison house for Christmas Eve dinner... This year they put me in charge of the program. Mom... I never knew how much work went into that... well just getting all the costumes together for the nativity! Mercy!
