Game Day

Last weekend we went to the USU game! Dana's friend Robbie plays for Southern Utah University, and they happened to play USU this last weekend so he got us tickets to watch them play. It was really exciting to see Kailani at her first football game, she behaved pretty good for having to sit there for 3 hours and having teething pains.
Anyway it was a really good game I even ended up getting into it, I thought we would get into an altercation if we wore Red at the Aggies stadium so I played it safe and wore a neutral color! Those Aggies fans sure are something else, and unfortunately they ended up winning the game in the end!

On a side note, Kailani is definately getting her first tooth, it's no wonder she was so whinny all week. I can already see the tooth peeking out ( how stinken cute)- I also had a random thought about this whole tooth thing--- I was wondering why doesn't it hurt babies gums when they only have one tooth? Interesting question right? Anyway good nite!

Random California Trip

Last Thursday I was talking to my sister saying it would be awesome if I could somehow make it to the twins' birthday party, which was that Sunday! I thought there was just no way, but I called my cousin who is a truck driver and he happened to be in Salt Lake so I made a couple of phone calls and just like that I was on my way to California! It felt so surreal, and random, although I was a little nervous with Kailani and it being a longer ride than in a car. Anyway we got there safe on Friday and met up with my sister and off we were to Hemet where she lives. I can't believe how big the kids got in just 2 months, Nathaniel loves Kailani and she also gets excited when she sees's him, I think they understand each others baby language! lol
  It's funny to see how the kids interact and play together. Friday night, we also got to hang out with Dana's family for a little bit, and unfortunately Kailani was being quite the brat, she didn't want anyone else to hold her but me or her auntie Cindy, I don't know what her deal was! But we still had such a good time hanging out and talking.



Saturday morning we went out to Newport Beach, where it was so fun to see how Gianna loves the water, she's such an adventurer and all she wanted to do is be in the water, she even tried to go all by herself in the ocean! Nathaniel on the other hand rather hangout on the beach playing with the sand and his toys. It was hilarious to see Gianna covered in sand and eating every thing with sand, those kids are so stinken funny!
Oh did  I mention I got to have Jack in the Box! Yum I love their 2/$1 tacos and curly fries.
 And I got lots of good pictures of the kids at the beach apparently!







 That day we also were able to spend more time with Dana's family and have dinner, I can say I enjoy all of grandpa Chuck and Grandpa Gigi's stories! The time totally flies by when you are having fun! But for some reason I didn't really get any pics of us at the house.

Sunday we had fun at the kids birthday party, it was so funny to see Nathaniel stick his hand in the cake, and Gianna opening her gifts, shes so smart, and I think she likes to be the life of the party because she sure knows how to make people laugh! Anyway the rest of the time I was there I just hung out with the kids and my sister, its so nice to spend time with them whenever I can since I'm so far! I also got to go out to dinner with my sister in law Cindy, I sometimes wish we lived a lot closer! I can't wait for Baby Cindy or Seth to join the family in March!!!

The Big 2-4

My birthday was on Friday and we decided to celebrate by going out to dinner in Ogden. The original plan was that we would go to Friday's, but we decided to go to Famous Dave's BBQ, which was a little weird, because it was kinda empty when we got there, but the food was delish! And I'm so happy that we all got to go and hang out (thank goodness for a wonderful family.) Anyway so other than that on Friday, I just got gifts from the parents, oh and the realization that I'm only getting older! ugh 

So apparently, the new thing is a Birthday weekend, so we kept celebrating Saturday by watching our favorite College Football team USC play against Ohio, and we are so happy they USC ended up winning after Ohio thought they had it in the bag! 
Anyway as most of you know my parents are at the restaurant everyday Mon-Sat, so we got to celebrate my birthday on Sunday, at my parent house. My brother and parents were so nice to have put together some food, and cake, and it was all so yummy. Unfortunately, Dana had to come home and study so he was gone after about an hour, but we still had fun playing Guitar Hero 5 with my brother, and watching Kailani get her self up and try walking! I know I always talk about her, but she basically is my world now, and everyday she does something new! Anyway thanks to everyone who made my birthday a blast!
