Weston at the piano
Weston likes to sit at the piano and "play." just like his dad. Too cute to pass up the photo opportunity. 
Bryan's 30th birthday
Bryan's birthday celebration was not much in the morning...other than excitment of a couple of gifts...
However, that night I surprised him by kiddnapping him and taking him to outback steak house. This is one of his favorite restraunts. I think he was delighted. Hopefully it was a day to remember.

my gift to Bryan
This is an image of the Denver temple that I had printed in Sepia tones and framed for Bryan. I was very impressed with how it turned out, as so was Bryan. He loved it. 
Ear infections.
Before flying to Colorado, Kambria got an ear infection and was put on antibotics. wEstonw as checked but was fine. However...Christmas Eve he was saying his ears hurt so we took him to the little clinic...He was still a happy little guy and this was the video we took while waiting to get the diagnosis that he was fine.

Bryan's car
I went VTing on monday night...yes I now it was FHe time, but I had not visited with this sister for QUITE a long time and she needed it...so I went...well I took Bryan's car and when I was about done, her neighbor came to the door and said he hit the car!!!!! I was so glad he was honest instead of a hit and run! It was not anything too major, except that you could not open the driver door!!! So after getting insurance info and such we have his car in the shop and he has a rental car! thank goodness this very nice man who hit it had insurance!!!! It turns out the estimate to get the thing fixed is over $1000!!! I am so glad that we are not paying for it! Too bad for the other guy!
But nothing major was done and the car itself seems to be fine...just the cosmetic look was damaged! It was drivable and the wheel well was fine too! Thank goodness!!!! So that is what we are going through this week. Bryan gets to drive a toyota camry...which neither one of us is impressed with. We like our Malibu!

my latest project
I am way behind on my posts...but I thought I would share my latest project---Kambria's Easter dress. I think it turned out rather good. I am making it so her and her sister can match....now I just need to find a pattern to make her sister one similar...maybe I will have to ask my mother! She always has an idea!

cookie decorating at nonnie's
My family really gets into their Christmas cookie decorating! EVERYONE participates! Although I do have to say that it gets more fun and exciting as time goes on and once the kids get bored with it and the adults are left to their imaginations! 
But like I said, everyone gets into it...look at all those cookies we had to decorate. But don't worry we did not eat them all.! 
Kambria was a pro since we had done ours not but a couple of days before this. She was VERY happy to be the "expert."
Weston just needed a little help. 
But he remembered how to eat them! He ahd no problem with that part! 
And here is one of the final products...and I thought it was fitting for Bryan! My brother Brady made this one...it is suppossed to be "gingy" from Shrek since Nelson made a Shrek one. I wish I would have taken a picture of all th final products, but somehow I did not. It was a lot of fun and lots of memories were made that night!
