TIME FOR A CHANGE!

I finally got myself a piano! Well, Andy and two of his younger brothers helped too! It's lots of fun! Andy is enjoying it a lot also! He's trying to teach himself to play! I need to get Jenna a piano teacher. We had someone come tune it and he said that we got a really good deal and that it was a really good piano!
This is the piano next to my AWESOME window between my kitchen and living room. Then we got some nice spiral iron work to put in the corners and it looks awesome!
These are close ups of the corner pieces!
So! I have been wanting to donate my hair to Locks of Love and ran out of patience for it to grow anymore! So we chopped it off at the minimum length (10 inches) and this is how it looked!!!

JENNA DAY!

So! We came up with a new idea to help Jenna not have any accidents. If she can go Saturday till the next Friday without having accidents (give or take a couple) then we go do something just for her and without Hannah. She gets to pick. She does very well, although there were two weeks she didn't do so well. One Friday we went and saw the movie "Bolt", then the next week we went to Jumpin Jacks in Springville. Jenna decided it was ok if Hannah came. We had SO much fun! Lots of exercise too!





Then the next time we saw the movie "Hotel for Dogs". We really enjoyed that movie! Then yesterday we went ICE SKATING! Andy and I haven't been on ice skates since we were about 10 or so! Jenna was so unhappy the whole time and we all fell at least once. When we were taking off our skates to leave, Jenna says "I love ice skating!" She sure didn't act like it when we were on the ice!

Our new friend!

So we got a hamster! Imagine that! I know, some of you are probably thinking, "Another pet?" Well, yes. Jenna wanted to name him Sarah, but I said no. So we named him Homer and Jenna calls him Homie! Hannah is actually afraid of him! Crazy!

Children Say the DARNDEST things!

So, Christmas Eve Jenna says, "Tomorrow is Jesus' birthday! How old is He?"
Mom: "2009 years old!"
"Wow, He's OLD! He's a Grandpa!"
"Yup! He's a Grandpa A LOT!"
"How come He doesn't have wrinkles?"

Then today at Wal-Mart Jenna says, "Does every kiss really begin with K?"
I laughed SO hard! I thought that she meant the commercial for Kay Jewelers!
She laughed and says, "No, really. Does kiss begin with K?" Then I understood what she was asking!

Then just now I was getting something out of the fridge (can't remember what) and Jenna says, "Provo! Provo!" "What?" I said. You mean, "Bravo! Bravo!"

TOO FUNNY!

COOKIES! TREE! SANTA!

Hannah & Mommy made cookies the other day! Of course Hannah was mostly helpful when it came to licking the beaters!






Then the tree got decorated by lots of children! It was funny because they kept putting the ornaments up high and none were down low. You would think it would be the other way around!

Then we had a ward Christmas party and SANTA came!

He was the skinniest Santa I've ever seen!

G.E.D

I'm so excited! Natalie took the GED on Tuesday and passed! I should've just done it right the first time, but I feel like maybe I'm still smart! (After two kids and some brain loss probably!) Now I just need to get my husband there and some of his siblings! FYI if you need to take the GED google "ged math" and it will give you a practice test, you can send in your answers and get feedback! We didn't notice this until late the night before I took mine. I'm sure you could get practice tests for the other subjects also!

The Backyardigans


So Jessica wondered what Wubbzy was. Now I want to know what the characters on Backyardigans are. Is Tasha a Hippo? Obviously Tyrone is a moose. Pablo is a penquin. What is Uniqua? And what is Austin?
