When did this happen?











Jordan Turns 15 today. I can't believe it! It seems like just yesterday he was the baby in these pictures. And now every time I turn around he is begging me to drive. These are two of my favorite baby pictures of him. I love his huge blue eyes. I think that the second one looks like a porcelain doll but with a snotty nose. Jordan has always been his own person and if there is a way that is not normal to do something he will find it and do it. Even though it sometimes (almost always drives me crazy) it is a good quality to have. I love that Jordan is always concerned about others (except when I pick him up from school and he has a bloody nose because he was sticking up for his friend when a senior is picking on him). I love that Jordan is not yet the typical teenager (he still loves being with his family). I love it when he just out of the blue comes up and gives me a big hug! I love watching him play football and wrestle.

Mine and Sarah's husbands have a mistress

For Christmas we got this thing called a wii and it has now taken over our lives! I decided I would blog about this when Jordan stayed home from school because he was sick or so I thought (he really was sick although not sick enough aparently) I was up cleaning the kitchen and heard yelling down stairs knowing that only Jordan was down there I peek down the stairs and there was Mike and Jordan playing the wii in the middle of the day when Mike should have been at work and Jordan at school. This is the noise that I have been hearing everynight while laying in my bed alone since before christmas because Shawn and Mike would get it out after the kids had gone to sleep and play till midnight so when my kids got it for Christmas it was already well used. Well Sarah and i thought that it would only last a few weeks and then it would get old to them. It hasn't yet. Sarah will get in the shower at night and Mike will sneek over to my house or she will go into another room and he will disappear. They are in the youngmens togeather and for their activities they want to plan a wii party. Needless to say my little kids hardly ever get to play. They text each other and their message is do you have a wii itch now that doesn"t sound good but when they get that message it means game on.Well me and Sarah will continue to go to bed by ourselves and I will listen to all the yelling coming from the basement and we will keep hoping that some day they will grow up.

The joys of Christmas
















On Thursday it was a crazy day. Jordan had an appointment for an MRI in Provo so we headed up at 7:30 in the morning his appointment was at 9:30 the roads were awful we didn't get there till 10:30. We got his MRI done and were going to do a little Christmas shopping but the roads were so bad and Shaylee had a dance recital she had to be to at 5:30 and we didn't want to be pushed for time so we headed home. The roads were a little better coming home. When we got home it was time to go to Shay's recital and as soon as she finished her last dance she had a Christmas music performance at the middle school and me and Shawn had his company Christmas Party in Delta. So we left with just enough time to make it to Delta and Shay went on to the middle school where my mom and dad were there to watch her sing. I'm glad that day is over. Here are some pics of Shay's dance recital. They also had a tumbling performance and she threw her back flip for the first time (kind of hard to get a picture of).
