Girls Night Out

I'm a little late but on Monday my friends and I had a girls night out. Rachel was in town and Mandi was days away from having her baby so we gathered at IHOP and had a lot of fun. There were a couple of friends that were not able to make it and we really missed them, hopefully they can join next time. Thanks for the fun girls, can't wait to do it again.

Helicopters, heights and scenic views, OH MY

We finally got to go on our helicopter ride, it was so much fun, I LOVED it and can't wait to do it again. I can't believe how different a helicopter feels then an airplane. Here are some of our pictures from the adventure.

Pilot: Tyler, the best helicopter pilot I know!

Tyler has to pre-flight the helicopter before we can fly. That means he has to inspect every inch of the helicopter to make sure everything is in perfect condition. A lot goes in to this it takes about 20 minutes every time he has to fly.



Passengers: Brittney, Britton, Shayna, Grandma T., Grandpa T. (my parents) and my Grandma.
Britton absolutely loved the helicopter, he has been talking about it non stop and has been asking so many questions. Tyler has been teaching him a lot and they are both determined for Britton to get his Pilots license before he gets his drivers license.




And this is some of the view we got, we flew to Heber City and flew over Deer Creek Reservoir. It was beautiful.

I have so many pictures but decided that would have to be enough!

After our flight we went to visit family at Uncle Robyn's house. These are some pictures from that adventure.


The male adults hung out in the kitchen while.......




the girls danced in the living room.


This little girl is the newest addition to our family. Her name is Kiana and she is Five weeks old. She is Coby and Jill's little bundle of joy. She is sooooo cute I could have held her forever.

V Smile

My Parents and my Grandma came over to our house for dinner on Friday night. Shay asked Papa if he would play V Smile with her so I snuck (is that a word?) down stairs and took this picture. Shay is such a Grandpa's girl, whenever he's around Shay won't leave him alone.

Valentine Cupcakes

The kids made Valentine Cupcakes. I let them do everything by themselves from stirring all of the ingredients together to filling the pan to the icing of the cupcakes.



Needless to say, we didn't give these cupcakes away!

Silly Shayna

For as long as I can remember Shayna has loved to pose for the camera. Lately she has been making up her own poses. She will say "Mom, take a picture of me doing this" or "this is really cute Mom, get your camera". She loves to practice her poses in front of the mirror as well. Here is some of her latest work.


So what inspired me to do this post you might ask? Well, today before we could leave for school she had to do some poses for the camera.


Shayna has such a fun personality. She is always making me laugh.

Black Hawk Striker 2

Tyler and Britton Play a computer game called Black Hawk Striker 2. Now since this is a Helicopter game you would think that a helicopter pilot would be really good at it.....right? Funny thing is Tyler can not beat Britton. They have been playing this game for a while and the other night Tyler finally beat Britton's score by a couple hundred points, so Britton played again and wiped Tyler out by a few Thousand points. As for me, lets just say I don't last very long.

Poor, Sick Kids

Shayna started throwing up Tuesday evening and and threw up twice that night, she was still sick on Wednesday but didnt throw up at all that day so I decided it would be ok to go back to work on Thursday. Around 5:00 pm Thursday she started throwing up again but it ended before I put her in bed. Thursday night at 11:00 Pm Britton started throwing up and he threw up every 1/2 hour to 45 minutes. I promise I am not exaggerating. It was awful, we were both exhausted. He finally stopped throwing up at 6:00 am. We were both able to finally fall asleep about 6:30. And what do you know, Shayna woke up at 7:30......so much for sleep. Here we are on superbowl Sunday everyone seems to be feeling ok but we had to cancel our superbowl plans. O'well at least no one is throwing up. Please, please don't let me get it!!!
