Memorial Weekend Fun...or Misery

We decided to take a little camping trip this weekend. This is what we woke up to: SNOW!!! It was crazy cold and miserable. So we came home a day early. It snowed on us all day until we left. We won't be doing that again any time soon. Cam and I would have been ok, and even Caeli was having fun eating ice. Cohen is not much of a camper to beging with, so it made it extra bad to be up there in bad weather with a baby. However despite the weather, we did have some good times around the campfire laughing and telling stories. We also saw a bunch of Elk and a few deer. We woke up in the night to the cow elk chirping and they were really close to us. We love to be outdoors, maybe next time we will believe the weather man.
Friday was Caeli's dance recital. She did well and actually knew what she was doing and where she was supposed to be. After one small wardrobe malfunction she danced her little heart out. They put lipstick on her and so she thought that she was pretty hot stuff. One small little ranting moment- SOME MOTHERS!!! Some of these cute little 4 and 5 year old girls came to the recital in full on $5 hooker makeup! I hesitated putting lipstick on my 3 year old, I can't imagine. What are we teaching our little girls? Going back to my own dance and drama days I know enough about stage make-up to know what they were going for, but come on, not on our beautiful little tiny girls that aren't even in kindergarten yet. And that's all I have to say 'bout that.

CAM?

Crazy Hair Family

It has just been a while since I have posted so I decided to post some funny pictures. It has been so nice outside we spent a little time out on the trampoline that last time that we were in Richfield and the kids had some major static hair. You can't tell on Cohen's because he still doesn't have much hair, but what little he has was sticking up nicely.
Cam is another story completely. Sorry babe, I just had to post this picture. His hair was the longest that it has been since I have known him. Thanks to the military he never had much of a chance to let it grow. However, the shaggy hair look isn't very good on him so we cut it. I had been playing with his hair when I snapped this picture, I don't think he knew it was up in a curly mohawk. hehe.

Picture Day!

I just wanted to post some more of the cute pictures we had done of the kids. Aren't they so dang cute! I really like this girl that we have take the picture. Denise Lindsey. She is really great with the kids and her pictures are really fun.

Haircuts and Hungry Boys

Caeli had been saying for about 6 months now that she wants her hair cut short like Aunt Ter's. Finally after we got family pictures taken I went and got it cut. She really loves it. I catch her looking in the mirror all of the time and talking to herself. Mostly I just catch words like "beautiful" and "oh thank you" with the occasional "Yes, Aunt Ter" It is wierd to see her with short hair but I am sure that I will be used to it soon.
Cohen was playing on the floor in his diaper, (my remedy for a grumpy boy) and I looked over and he had both hands and both feet in his mouth. He had moved a bit before I got the camera out but you get the idea. I guess he was hungry for a little toe jam. :)

Crystal MIA

OK so I decided that I would post and let you all know what has happened to me, why I have been slacking on my blog and lost into my own little world. My friend Jaimie talke me into being an advisor for Lia Sophia Jewelery. I am actually having a lot of fun doing it. I have got so many CUTE things. The Jewelery is really nice. So I have been going all over and having parties. So, it has been taking up a lot of my time. I spend more time on the phone now instead of on the computer. I am actually really excited about it all. But Jewelery is just my thing I guess. So like I told my mom the other day... if you want to see me now you have to book a party. :)

Bumbo

This is definately not an attractive picture of Cohen but it makes me laugh. I was so excited to find a Bumbo that wasn't purple I bought it as soon as I saw it. I put him in it for the first time and he got this funny look on his face then started crying. He likes it more now after I put him in it a few times, he likes to be able to look around. He's such a good little guy.
