Like father like son...

Looks like we have a future ball player on our hands!

When I grow up.....

I rarely blog about myself, so you are in for a treat!! In case you didn't catch the sarcasm in my voice...let me go ahead and tell you, rarely does anything super exciting in my life happen. I spend my days playing Polly Pockets, and reading "I Spy" books. Not that I don't enjoy those times were Polly gets a new house, or she is throwing a huge sleepover with movies and popcorn, but I often find myself dreaming about what I want to be when I grow up ha ha.

This past month I have gotten to do a lot of things for myself, so I'm just going to tell a little bit about what I have been up to lately.

First I have been working on a Musical for the Church. Women's Stake conference is coming up in April, and we are preforming Women at the Well.

My character is a teenage girl, who falls asleep and wakes up in biblical times. She witnesses many of Christs miracles, and her testimony is strengthen by the women that Christ taught, and healed

Second I had been working on a GAGA costume for my friend Reta, for her concert she was going to. After lots of hard work the costume turned out AWESOME! Hundreds of people asked to take pictures with her, and she was chosen out of 20,000 people to a photo shoot for Gaga's tour. The picture on the left is the one she took her self at the concert when it appeared on the big screen. The one on the right is from the photo shoot!

Third I have been playing volleyball every week with some friends from church! So fun!! Sorry about the picture.... I guess I was the only one thinking this was supposed to be a silly picture! HA HA

Fourth I am Zumba'ing!!! I love it!! I now exercise 4 times a week, and I feel better than I ever have. I'm thinking about certifying to be a Zumba instructor, so I can do it even MORE! If I sound addicted, its because I AM!

So besides being a mom to my great children, I get to do all these fun things too. My first and most important job is being there for them, and all this is just extra.

Love, Brittney

Bored...

So lately I have been itching to start a new project... I found one! I am a new follower of

Vintage Revivals! This lady is AMAZING! Her house, her personality, and her love for thrift store makeovers captures me! She recently made this teapot, and I am about to jump on the wagon myself!

Lets have a party....or two

Lily with her cousins! They had a great time making their build-a-bears!

Tangled cake!

Lily hasn't stopped talking about the children's museum, it was a hit!

On Lil's birthday on campus, they brought a helicopter and dropped 20,000 bouncy balls.

As you can tell from Lil's hood... there was enough for everyone! I'm still finding them all over my house!

Make a wish!

Lil loved all her presents... thanks Whitney, Reta, Celeste, grandma, and mom for a great birthday!

Free stuff.... awesome!

Dear Lily,

I can still remember cuddling for hours on the couch with you when you were just a baby. I remember when I could count 11 rolls up your arm. You were the chubbiest baby alive, and I loved you. Since then we don't have as much time to cuddle, your rolls are gone, and your still the cutest little girl I know. My love grows for you everyday.

You have been such a perfect first child for me, because YOU teach ME! I love the way you care so much for your little brother, and your family. The random "I love yous" warm my heart every time you say them throughout the day.

You're beautiful.

You love your Father in Heaven.

You are very talented, in everything you do. The beautiful pictures you draw, books you can memorize in days, and your beautiful voice. I love to turn the music on in the car and hear you sing. Your so little but your heart and spirit are double your size. I don't know how it could fit in that little body of yours.

Looking through pictures of the last few years brought tears to my eyes. I cant believe how big you are. You are SO special.

I love you lily bug.

It snowed.... again

No surprise right! I dont know how much longer I can take this snow! Call me a baby... i dont care, I hate the snow and the snow hates me!

My poor children, to have me for a mother. I spend my days hiding from snow. I stay inside, I tip toe around different patches of ice on the ground, I dread the 30 minutes it takes you to get your kids snow clothes on, just so that they can tell you 5 minutes later they are cold and have to pee, and I havent touched one snow ball all year long. I know right, pathetic! Well ladies and gentlemen, I did it! I woke up the other day, the sun was shining and I did it..... i built the worlds smallest..... lamest snowman! I even gave it a little carrot nose, and stick arms i had to dig up from under the snow. Proud... I'd say yes!

Though my snow adventure only lasted about 30 minutes, I was proud of myself. The kids spent the day kissing.... and eating the snowman. I even taught owen how to throw a snowball!

BOO YA!

Love Brittney
