Day 362

Our little niece, Molly, was born today! She was born at 1:07 AM. She weighed 6 lbs 12.5 oz, and was 19 inches long. Such a tiny lil' thing, but SOOOO CUTE!!! This isn't the best picture, but it's all I got. Congrats, Nat, Casey, & big brother, Benson!

Day 361

Tonight was the Haws family Christmas party. We do a gift swap every year that is something I really look forward to. I love spending time with this family! They are all so hilarious! I took a different picture for my picture of the day, but it was blurry so I decided to use this one. This is Cory, Benson, and Brady chillin on the same couch. So precious!

Day 360

Today was my Kap family Christmas party. We ate some delicious soups and had fun playing some wild crazy games! This is a picture of my niece, Jerzee, just hanging out on the gym floor. She also became a proud big sister today. My brother and sister-in-law had little Jaxon during our family party. Jaxon was born at 1:20 pm. He weighed 7 lbs 14 oz and was 21 1/2 inches long.

Day 354

Santa came to visit at my parents tonight. It was mostly for the kids, but this Santa also gave advice to us older ones too. I haven't sat on Santa's lap since I was like ten. It sure was fun having Santa drop by!

Day 351

Andy's mom took Tami, Shanna, & I to see the Nutcracker ballet tonight. I have never seen the Nutcracker, so it was something completely new to me. A girl in Andy's parents ward was the main girl in the ballet, and she was absolutely amazing! She is such a great dancer! I had so much fun hanging with my family! Thanks, Jan, for taking me!

Day 348

Our newest nephew, Konnor, has arrived! He was born today at 1:43 PM. He weighed 7 lbs and was 20 1/2 inches long. He is so adorable. Congratulations, Tiffany, Sean, and big brother, Keegan!

Day 345

I finally have one of my sisters back to play dodgeball with me! Both Tiffany & Kristina had to go off and get pregnant, so I had to play without either of them, and it just wasn't the same. Kristina has been cleared by her doctor to come play so now the sister team is back on! Kristina & I always grew up playing on the same team in soccer. It was nice having a sister on the team because you always knew at least someone had your back. I am not the dirty soccer player type, but if you hurt my sister, I hurt you. That was just the way it went. Well, dodgeball isn't any different. We are a great team because we look out for each other. You just don't mess with us!
My sister, Tiffany, will be having her baby soon too, so I will soon have another sister to play with! We'll give them a "Hart" attack as we sisters like to call it!

Day 340

We had my family's Christmas gift swap tonight (I know it's early, but we had to do it before my sister Tiffany has her baby). Everyone brought really great gifts, but it was too bad the actual "SWAPPING" didn't last long. Anyway, here is my nephew Parker with his adorable Christmas shirt. It says, "All Mommy Wants For Christmas is a Silent Night." So cute. I love this boy!

Day 338

The day after our wonderful trip to see the lights at Temple Square from a plane, we went with my family to see them from the ground. I had so much fun taking pictures because I am finally getting more acquainted with my camera! I love visiting temple square. It is such a fun tradition that I will keep throughout my entire life.

Day 335

I had my exit interview for Level 2 today (which went very well by the way), so after school all I wanted to do was some celebrating. So what did I do, you ask? I went to see New Moon with my hubby, my bestest friend (my sister, Kristina), & her husband! I was so glad Dunna & Evan were willing to go with us because Andy absolutely wouldn't go with me unless there was another dude going. The movie was absolutely wonderful...even better than Twilight, but it left my heart torn in two. Team Edward? or Team Jacob? I love them both for two very different reasons (Don't worry, I still love my husband)! I have read all the books, so I know how it ends, but it just makes me so sad. I wish they could both get the girl, but then that would only make Bella look like a two-timing...you know what! I had such a great time at the movies with my family! It definitely was an awesome way to celebrate! Thanks, Dunna & Evan for coming with us! I had a blast, but I'm not sure if I can say that for Andy.

Day 329

Tonight, Andy & I went to Nat & Casey's house to hang out and watch a movie. We watched Night at the Museum, or at least we tried. Benson really wanted attention, so there wasn't much movie watching going on. Here is Nick entertaining Benson with some stickers. Nick kept putting them on Benson's back where Benson wouldn't be able to reach them. That poor Benson! He has so many aunts and uncles that love to tease him, but I actually think he likes it. Thanks for all the fun, Nat, Casey, Benson, Tam, & Nick! We love spending time with you all!

Day 328

Andy actually snapped this picture of Benson a while ago, but I didn't have anything to take a picture of today, so I am using this one. I know I say this A LOT, but I LOVE this boy. It is so fun to see Andy & Benson play. They are so cute together!

Day 326

Tonight was our every other week Sunday dinner with my family. We have such a fun time just hanging out! I sure love my family! They are awesome!

Day 325

Today was the funeral for my cousin, Brooke. It was such a sweet service. I just love how family comes together during hard times. Being at the service made me realize how much I love each one of my family members! I would do anything for them. Thanks for bringing us closer together, Brooke! We love you and miss you!

Day 324

I got a phone call from my mother yesterday morning telling me my cousin had died. Tonight, my family & I went to her viewing. Brooke was such an amazing person and artist! I am just sorry that I didn't get to know her better. She will be missed! Love you, lil Brookie!

Day 323

Andy's netbook desktop has pictures of planes that rotate every couple minutes or so. Benson had so much fun watching the pictures change. I love how close Benson & Andy are. They are so much fun to be around!

Day 322

This is my nephew, Benson, licking up the water he spilled because his dad told him too. What a goof!

Day 312

I gave Benson my phone the other day, and while he was playing with it, Andy called it from his cell phone. Andy spoke in this deep (kinda creepy) voice to Benson. Silly boys. (I'm still not sure if Benson really knew it was Andy talking on the other end).

Day 311

Nick, Tami, Casey, Natalie, Benson, Andy, and I went to the park today. We mostly went for Benson, but we all ended up having a wonderful time. It's been a long time since I have gone to a park. Good times. Good times.

Day 306

I took this picture a few weeks ago, but it's just too cute to pass up. Andy is wearing the headband upside down because he wanted it to be an M for Muck (that's me). Then, Benson is wearing a sock label. I love these two weirdos!
