Update

Isn't life great? I figured you might all want an update. Jack's growing so much, he talks all the time and learns more every day. If we ask him where the baby is, he points to my belly. So fun

Last week was my 36 week appointment, i was checked and was dialated to a 3 and 70% effaced. For a couple of days there we really thought she was on her way here, now i think she's content to be in there for a little while longer. John asked me today when i thought she was coming and honestly, i have no idea, sometime before February i hope. We are very excited to meet her, and i'm very excited to not be pregnant any more :)

I've been thinking about New Year's Resolutions lately and i have plenty of them. But one thing that i really want to do is prepare dinner every night and eat together. I've been a huge slacker in this area and i believe its costing us more money because many times we just end up going out....especially while i'm pregnant, but i think its time to be a good mom and wife and make dinner a priority :) So, if anybody has had success at this i'd love some advice! My hardest part is coming up with something to make. I want to plan ahead, be prepared with meals and have lots and lots of ideas.... Anyway, that may be the only goal i'll share...maybe not but for now, i think i better go make sure i'm fulfilling the rest of my New Years Resolutions! Happy New Year!

Sledding!

Since I'm not really in any condition to do much sledding i just played with my camera the whole time and loved it! Here's what i got!

Jack didn't really enjoy himself. I don't think he was feeling very good and i think he was a little cold but he was pretty happy to finally get back to the warm house. We had a lot of fun though!

Fisher Family Party

The Fisher family party was in Manti this year so Jack and I stayed an extra day for that. It was fun filled with food, sledding and skeet shooting. Jack and i didn't last very long in the cold but we made the most of our time there :)

Grandpa O took Jack down the hill and i guess he hated it. Oh well, he'll learn to love it i'm sure :)

Grandma's came to visit....

 And Jack was such a great helper

Day after Christmas

Dec 26, 2010: Emily's farewell. I can't believe she's leaving so soon, she did such a great job and i really am going to miss her. She will be a wonderful missionary though, so i can't help but be excited for her too.

 That night we headed over to Van Ormans for puzzling and games

Christmas, New Camera.... Catch-up

Just a warning, i got a new camera for Christmas and I LOVE IT! So, there are going to be a lot of pictures :) We had a great Christmas spent with family. Christmas morning, after John and Jordan slept in the Christmas fort, we ran over to Manti to open gifts etc, thats where i got the camera and while we were there is was charging the whole time so we have no pictures of the Olsens. Then we headed back to Ephraim to open with them. We love this time of year and were so glad we got to be together. Here's some pictures of what we did

John was my first model with the new camera :) 

 Jack LOVED his new dog

 I made John and Jack matching hats :) 

 Grandpa V got a totally awesome scooter for Christmas, we had to all check it out :)

 (i think he liked it)

 (below is my favorite picture, i love how clear it is with my camera! It really makes such a huge difference)

 This is what i found my parents doing when we made it back to Manti Christmas evening

Thanks everyone for the good times! 

We moved!

Yes, thats probably old news to everybody by now but today, after almost 2 weeks of being here, we FINALLY got the internet again :) Its about time i say. I'm glad to have it, but i got on earlier because i was so excited and i couldn't think of anything i needed to do...oh well. Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know we're alive, but we'll be leaving tomorrow for our Christmas!

So.... MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful, happy, and merry Christmas
