Cabin Fun!

A few weekends ago we got to go and have family fun at the Eggers cabin! The kids loved it. Payton always loves being able to play with his cousins. While we were up there we drove about 20 minutes and found a spot to go play in the snow. 
Scar was all ready to go play in the snow, but everyone takes too long to get ready that she decided to take a nap first before we left. 
When we had told Payt that we would be going to the cabin he was so excited cause he wanted to build a snowman and play out in the snow while its snowing. So he got to build his snowman which he thought was a lot of fun!!!
Scar actually didn't hate the snow. I was a little surprised.
I just love this picture. Payton is really not good at looking at the camera, but he is still very cute!
First family photo in the snow!
Christy giving Josh and Payton a little push on the sled. Payton did not love the bumpiness of the sled from the snow. With that said he never went on a sled again that day.
He did really good walking on the snow. No major falls so thats always good.
We even let Scarlett down and she played for a minute.
This is when Josh thought it would be so fun to hold Payton and slide on his feet in the snow. As you can see Payton really didn't enjoy that!
The kids had a fun time sledding down this hill and going over the jump.
This is my nephew. He and his brothers kept trying to see who could get the most air!
Scarlett even got to go down. She and I went down together. 
Josh even had to try and get some air!
The family taking a break to have some lunch.

These cousins always switch cars. They enjoying riding together. Payton hardly ever goes in our car, but we usually always get some nieces or nephews. 
We had a very nice weekend at the Eggers cabin. Can't wait for the next time!

Cuteness & Visit from Grandpa

Once again I am way behind on my blogging. So my goal is to get all caught up this week. This post is over a month old, but I have to post the pictures they are just too cute!
This is every day life for us. The kids seem to do whatever. They make big messes all over, wrestle, play, and cry.
Scar thinks she is such a big girl! Really though SHE IS!! 
I try and get Payt to ride is bike more and more, but it doesn't always work
We have had a few really nice days so I was able to get the kids outside and they loved playing with chalk. 
When I vacuum I put the kids chairs up on the couch. Well I did this one day and Scar thought it was so fun to get up on the couch and play on the chair. 
She is just very cute and crazy!
Its so nice that she knows how to get off the couch all by herself.
She is such a big walker. She walks all over.
So my dad got to come and visit us for a day. He had a working meeting here in California so he came to our place for a day. The kids really enjoyed having him here. We love then we have family come and visit. 
Payton enjoyed all the personal attention he got from grandpa. I love that he got my dad to sit with him at his little table. 
Grandpa with Payton and Scarlett. Very cute!

Frisbee Golf

Last Monday we got to spend the day together as a family. With Josh's new schedule he now gets all the holidays off. So he got Martin Luther King Day off. It was really nice. Since he gave me frisbee's for my birthday we decided to go and play a little frisbee golf. We went to a local coarse near our home and had a blast. We just packed the kids into the jogging stroller, bundled us all up and went. Payton was in and out of the stroller the whole time, but Scarlett did a really good job of staying in the stroller. She was pretty tired that day so she just relaxed and enjoyed the ride. 
Right before we started!
Even though it was a little cold out it was still BEAUTIFUL. Looking at these pictures now makes me feel so blessed to live in such a beautiful place. Heavenly Father created such an amazing beautiful world!
Payton, Josh and I played. Josh beat us both of course. Payton just loved being free and being able to throw the frisbee when he wanted.
These are what you are trying to get your frisbees into. The hardest thing for me is I just can't throw the frisbees very hard so I would throw 2 times just to get to Josh's first throw.
Nice form!!!
I have no form!!! I wore gloves and would just throw!
Payton loving the game!
Scarlett just relaxing!

I have this thing of trying to take a picture of myself. I feel like since I am the one always taking the pictures that there are never any of me. Unlike most people I like getting my picture taken!
We are both just so amazing at frisbee golf! Oh wait I am really not any good. It's still super fun though.
I love this picture of Scarlett. What a grumpy face!
I think this is so cute of Payton with both his thumbs up

Obviously I got enough pictures of myself. I just love my hat! I got it from my brother in law for christmas. Its is warm!!!
We are SO cute!
Our big walking girly!!!
I just adore this little girl so much. She is SO cute!
She loves to open the cupboards and peek around to see if we are going to tell her no. What a little stinker.
