~2010~

So when I think of 2010, I think of it as the year of trips. This year we went on many fun trips. From Dave and I celebrating 10 years of marriage in Hawaii, to a family vacation to Disneyland. It was expensive, but sooo worth it. I love spending time with my family, and these vacations have given me memories that I will always cherish. We also went on many camping trips this past year, which was a must because we bought our new camper. Dave claims that the camper is mine because we bought it so close to Mothers Day, but I think we all know whose camper it really is, lol.

Dave is super busy at work, which is a good thing I guess. The company is continueing to grow, which is great. He has gone to New York several times over this past year, and I'm sad to say that I didn't make it back with him not once. Hopefully this year that will change :) He is still on the Stake High Counsel, so yes I'm still a single mom at church. He enjoyed many hunts this year even though he was unsuccessful, hopefully next year that will change.

I am still LOVING being a stay at home mom. I enjoy going and helping in the kids classes, and love that their classmates know my name. I am still a Relief Society instructor. Which I like, that is until it is my turn to teach :) I was Hunter's baseball coach this past year with my friend Mindy Cope. It's kind of funny that I was a baseball coach because I hated playing baseball when I was younger. It probably was because I was never very good, but I had a lot of fun coaching Hunters team. We had such a cute team, but I don't think I'll do that again, lol. I'll leave it to the dad's who know a bit more about baseball.

Hunter has gone from 1st grade to 2nd grade, which is a lot of fun for me because I can pull out all my old teaching stuff and have him work on things I used to teach my 2nd graders :) (I don't know if he thinks that is so great though) He has been so busy with soccer, baseball, basketball, and has just started gymnastics with some good buddies, Davis and Cooper. He attented Utah States basketball camp this summer and got a special invite to a Jazz clinic a month ago. His favorite sport is basketball, so that was a lot of fun for him.

Mckell LOVES school!!! She went from Preschool to Kindergarten, and loves it. She is so funny, because she is constantly telling me that different little boys from her class say that she is their girlfriend. She will then tell them that no she is not their girlfriend, they are just friends because her dad told her she couldn't have a boyfriend unless he said so(hopefully she remembers this in years to come, lol) She also had been busy with dance, soccer, and kickball. She is learning to read, and loves making new friends. She is our little social butterfly. She also is a little mother. Sometimes I find Lexi calling Mckell mom, which I'm not sure I like :) Mckell is so good with Lexi, she gets her food when Lexi wants it, she will get her blankets, play with her, and even turn on movies for her. I love that my kids all get along so well.

Lexi is growing up so fast. She is becoming little miss independent. She loves watching her shows (that is what she calls movies), she loves jumping on her trampoline (she got it for her birthday), she loves playing in Mckell's kitchen and with Mckell's barbies, and she loves playing with Hunter and Mckells friends. She thinks she is just as big as them and can do just what they can do.

We have had a GREAT 2010. I hope 2011, is just as good.
