Part 1 of our Family Vacation (St. George)

Vacation!!!!!

Who doesn't love going on vacation?! We love going on vacation. This was a big vacation for us. We started our trip Valentines night and headed to St. George Utah. We got there about 5am Utah time. We unloaded our bedding and crashed in the front room of my sisters house. Mckinley wouldn't fall back asleep so I dealt with her until about 6:00am. The kids didn't wake up until 8:30 or so. So we didn't get a great nights sleep, but I didn't care because I was thrilled to be there and to be with all my siblings and their families, and my parents. 

Being able to see these two little guys was a thrill. I haven't seen them in months! 

(Stockton and Hinckley)

Stockton is such a doll. He is my sisters little guy.

We just did a lot of hanging out with each other. The kids played a ton with each other.

(Scarlett, Payton and Sofia)

We played a little catch phrase with each other and laughed a lot.

(Josh, Ashley and Jared)

Payton snuggled with grandma for a little bit. 

The girls got all dressed for church and looked so cute! I sure do love my nieces.

Scarlett and Sofia loved being twins!

After church we just relaxed and enjoyed watching these cute little babies. 

(Sofia, Olivia, Stockton, and Hinckley)

I was so excited to see this little girl also. I haven't seen Olivia in months also. These little babies are sure growing too fast!

Ada snuggling with grandma

The family chilling!

Watching them play!

Stockton is such a roll. I just adore him tons.

Payton, Me and adorable Hinckley!

Being able to see these kids all together and being able to be with my family was amazing. I sure do miss them all so much. I hate that I live the farthest away!

We had a celebration for Scarlett's 4th birthday. I knew we wouldn't see my family on her birthday so we celebrated early together. Scarlett loved it!

The babies played with the paper and Sofia and Ada loved seeing what Scarlett got.

Olivia, Mckinley, Hinckley, Stockton

Hinckley, Stockton and Olivia. I adore these three little babies!

Olivia using Stockton to help sturdy herself while she stands up. 

Singing Happy Birthday to Scarlett! Then...

Oops..The cake slipped out of Dawson's hands and fell flat onto the ground! It was hilarious!!!

We decided to let the kids have it anyways. They loved this!

We let each of the kids get a little before we stopped them and cleaned it up. Scarlett didn't seem to upset about it thank goodness! It is definitely a birthday celebration none of us will forget.

Overall being in St. George went by too fast! I loved being able to be there though with everyone. I really do love my family and appreciate all that they do for me and my family!

Part 2 of our vacation will come soon...

Cuteness!

Just wanted to post these cute pictures of the kiddos!

 Scarlett got these from her sunbeam class at church. 

 They actually wanted to sleep together. I love then they get along so well. 

 Mckinley just being her cute little self!

 It's official! Josh has a bachelors degree! We are very proud of him and the hard work he has put into school these last two years! Huge accomplishment!

Teeball has officially started! Paytong and Scarlett are on the same team and Josh is helping coach with our friends from church. They are both loving it so far!

 Rainy days are so much fun!!! Scarlett loved playing out in the rain

 Payton joined her once he was home from school

 Mckinley even gets out there and plays a little.

Everyday Adventures

Nothing too exciting has been going on here! We are just going through each day doing what we do everyday. 

The girls and I met Krista for lunch while she was working and then the girls and I headed to the park because it was such a beautiful day out. 

Scarlett loves to pose for pictures.

Mckinley is starting to get the hang of smiling for pictures also!

Payton lost another tooth. This was is second big tooth. He now looks like he has no teeth. It's quite funny watching him eat and trying to bought things. 

Every night the kids are asking Josh or I to carry them up the stairs for bed. This particular night Josh took both girls up at the same time. They loved it!

Dinner at our house. Nothing super exciting!

Scarlett helped make this puppet in her sunbeam class at church. She loves it. Sister Johnson is her teacher and she never stops amazing me with her creativity. Scarlett loves sunbeams!

Olivia, Stockton, and Hinckley 

These three little babies are just growing like crazy. I love that I get to see pictures of them all the time. Their parents do a pretty good job of posting them for the family to see. I can't wait to see these three in 1 WEEK!!! HURRAY!!!!

Mckinley is very into making a mess everywhere she goes in the house! It's very cute, but very annoying!

Just a cute picture of Mckinley enjoying her ice cream from McDonalds!

Yesterday once Payton was dressed for school he climbed into me bed with his sisters and I just had to get a picture. These three melt my heart!
