Laggers playing Catch-Up!!

I am not up to par with our blogging these days. Life has been full of all kinds of wonderful but it has been hectic at times too. I want to only remember the good times so I try and avoid blogging when I'm in a "mood". It's been a challenging past couple months to say the least but there has been a lot of Good too. I'm just going to start where I last left off:

Valentines Day ...We had our traditional Valentine's breakfast & the kids got cute little gifts from cupid.

 Funny Story: I wanted to make a yummy Valentine's dinner for Tyler so I made grilled brussel sprouts, cauliflower mashed potatoes & stuffed Pork Tenderloin with a yummy glaze but it was not so good! the veggies & potatoes were fine but I over salted the tenderloin & it was not even palatable. I was crushed cuz I spent so much time cooking. It was a major let down but Tyler & I just laughed about it.

In February, my friend Amber & I decided that we needed to get out of Utah & into some warmer weather for a change. So we talked about it & on a whim, packed our bags the next day for San Diego!! Everyone needs a "fly by the seat of your pants kind of friend"...I love Amber for this reason. So we were very brave & took our children to California for a week without our husbands. It was a fun trip full of memories. We went to the beach, children's museum, ate out a lot, visited friends & family, & we saved the best for last... Disneyland! I didn't take my camera to Disneyland b/c I didn't want to lug it around (and we were just there in October). Preston & I got to spend the day together & my Mom came later that afternoon with Caroline. It was so fun being with just Preston. He was so brave & went on Space Mountain! He still very much loves Star Wars so I told him that Space Mountain is like Darth Vador's Death Star in outer space & he totally bought it (a little manipulation can't hurt). At the end of the ride his face was blank & very calmly said, "I do not want to do that again"(lol).
