Valentines

Because Valentines Day was on a Sunday this year, we celebrated it on Saturday. It was such a fun day! The first thing we did was let Mataya deliver all of her valentines to her friends. She thought that was pretty cool! Then we went over to the big huge city of Laverkin and rode up into the hills to go shooting. Going shooting is usually not my thing, but the weather was beautiful and I just wanted to be outside with my family so it was actually really fun. While we where in Laverkin Kenyon drove us to the Laverkin over look, I had never been there and it was pretty cool.. Once we got home we let Taya have a Valentines treasure hunt, where she followed the candy heart trails to find her treasures..She loved that!! To top our fun day off we all went to dinner at the Brick Oven in St. George. It was such a fun day. Thanks Kenyon and Tay for being my little Valentines!!

Sombody thinks She's so smart!

When I was growing up we had a dog named Maynerd. Maynerd was always a little socially awkward, I mean what dog wouldn't be with that name right? Anyways, when he got into his old age he would wedge his little body underneath the couch and not come out. This usually happened when he would hear us getting ready to leave the house and he didn't want to have to go outside.. It was totally annoying because you would have to lift the couch to get him out. Well eventually he died and that was forgotten about until the other day. ZeeZee (my dog) who will soon be turning 8 years old (im not sure what that is in dog years) figured out the same trick. What is it with family pets? You love them so much but at the same time they drive you insane!!!
