Kids say the funniest things

So Emmalee and Bradley both say the funniest things sometimes. To day they both said soothing funny.

Emmalee: At dinner we had tostatas and Emmalee was telling Brian how he should make his. This is how the conversation went.

Emmalee- "Dad where is your sour cream?"

Brian- " You put it on last"

Emmalee" No you don't you put it on first. Where are you from China?"

I our house sometimes if my kids are being strange I will ask "Where are you from China"

Bradley: So recently Bradley has been doing some rather notty things like peeing in the bathtub, taking food in his room and getting it on his carpet. You know stuff like that. So when I go into his room to see what he is up to and I see that something is wrong I will ask him what happened and he will say i don't know or I didn't do it. Then I will say well who did it then the boogy man. So tonight he asked if he can open the Netflix movie and I told him no and to wait for dad to get home. 1o min latter he comes in to the room and the envelope is open in his hand and he says " Mom look what the boogy man did."

I guess it is true what they say about how we as parents need to watch what we say because our children will copy us. In our house that statement was proven true. I guess I am going to have to watch what I say.

Backstreet Boys

When I was in high school I was obsessed with Backstreet Boys. I am not exaggerating i was obsessed. I have all their videos all the cds and I even have a t shirt and i went to a concert. I slept on the ground down town Phoenix for tickets to that concert. I just found out today that they are back, I'm not sure how long they have been putting out new music but i just learned today that they have new music. So I put a playlist together to share with my blogger friends. I know u are all thinking what a dork but guess what I don't care because BSB rocks.

Princess

This past week my best friend Jen asked me if I would make her daughter a barbie birthday cake. So I jumped at the opportunity. I love doing this so much it makes me so happy that I can use my talents to serve my friends. Thanks Ashlyn and Jen for the opportunity to use my talents.

Happy Birthday Bradley

I was going threw the blog and realize i forgot to post about Bradley's Party and Birthday. Bradley turned 4 on January 27th we had a small party with family. I made an easy Dinosaur cupcake cake and took it easy because I felt sick but the party had to go on. Here are pictures of the fun evening.

Waiting patently to open his gifts

Bradley's fake smile to get me to stop taking pictures of him

Happy Late Valentines Day

For the kids valentines this year we went home made. We made cute cards with their pictures. I cut 2 holes one above the hand and one below and stuck a sucker threw it. I didn't take a picture of the end result i totally forgot.

Bradley's first day of Preschool

On the 18th Bradley went to his first day of preschool. He calls it primary I don't know why and I correct him every time but he still says it. He had a wonderful time and loves going.

He goes with his cousin Caleb and they get along great.

Emmalee's 7th Birthday

On Monday the 17th we had Emmalee's Birthday celebration. We took her and 4 of her friends horse back riding. They had a great time. Then we came home for pizza, cake and ice cream, and presents. It was a fun filled day. Here are the pictures of her special day.

And I was also getting all of our friends christmas cards and had no idea where to put them, so i said to my self what can i do. It just clicked I will add some robbon I already have and just hang the pictures on there. I love it. It's so cute and cost me nothing.

Cake Pops

This year for some of my friend's in our new ward I made some cake pops. I saw these on one of my favorite web sites I had so much fun making them, they may have taken all day but it was worth it. If you want to know how to make them go here to this website http://www.bakerella.com/its-beginning-to-look-a-lot-like-christmas/

Ginger Bread

We hand our annual Boulter Family ginger bread house decorating last week. The kids made their own. Emmalee is getting pretty good. She is getting the concept that it is a house so make it look like a house. Bradley just wants to get as much candy and frostin on as posable. And my is beautiful I love it. My mom found the little trains at CVS. They are not eatable but are so cute. Here they are.

Broken

Emmalee has chipped fractured her right ankle. She was jumping on the trampoline with all of her cousins and got double bounced went flying in the air and came down wrong on her ankle. Luckily she landed on the trampoline and not on the ground. She is going to be in a cast for 3 weeks. We are hoping to get it off before her birthday.

Brian's Birthday

For Brian's birthday this year I figured I have put so much work into my kids cakes that I needed to do the same or my wonderful husband. So I made him these lovely cup cakes. I just made the guitars out of melting chocolate and black frosting from a tube i bought at walmart. It was easy and fun and they looked awesome.

Visit from Canada

My Nana came from Canada to visit for a week so we took the opportunity to take some pictures with her.

We also took family photos. I am going to send out a christmas card with those pictures so if you want one and I don't have you address please leave a comment with your address and I would love to send you one. ( Laural and Lisa I don't have yours so please leave a comment with your address)

Happy Birthday Aiden

My baby is 1. I can't believe how time has flown. Aiden grew up so fast. Here are some great photos of his party. Thanks to everyone who came. We had a great time.

Thanksgiving

I had the wonderful opportunity to do the Barton Family thanksgiving this year. I was so wonderful having all the family over not only to help in the yard but to just spend time with them. Here are some photos of the table. Thanks to my hubby for letting me buy all of it, it made everything so much better.

Here is the kids table. I went to the dollar store and bought some crayons and stickers for them to color with. I put butcher paper on the table and let them go at it. They did so well and we got to eat a nice meal without any winey kids

My Birthday

So for my birthday this year I wanted to go camping so that is what we did. WE had a lot of fun and it was so nice and relaxing. No messes to clean up and no nagging mom(me) yelling at the kids to not get dirty. I let them have at it and they did pretty much anything they wanted. There was a park to camp spot away from ours so we let the kids play and have fun most of the weekend. On my birthday Saturday Brian and his family came up to celebrate the fun day. Thanks to everyone who came it was a blast. Here are some photos of the fun.

These are some of the lovely gifts i received

A chopping blog from the hubby

A game from my mom

Home made jewelry from my sis.

And flowers and a clean home when we got back from camping from the hubby.
