February 2012

February started out with a bang at Disney World.  Then the following weekend it kept going when we went to Cousin Aleck's birthday party.  The guests he invited included lots of creepy crawly slimy things.  Then the following week we had a GREAT valentines day.  I have the best hubby and kids ever.

The Jackson's at Disney World 2012

Brett, Justin and I all headed to Florida on Tuesday.  It was a very fast but fun trip.  The sad part was dropping off Caleb before the trip.  Yia Yia and Papou got to spend some fun time with him but we missed him the entire trip.  Thanks for watching him.  We also dropped off the dogs with Grandma and Grandpa.  Thanks for watching them as well.  Brett is so excited to get to see them again later today.

I was at Disney with Brett alone most of the time.  I really didnt get a lot of good pictures because we were so busy.  No time to stop for pictures.

The day we got there we went swimming.  then we went to Downtown Disney and at at Trex.  After that we made a quick trip to the lego store.

The following morning Justin went to work and Brett and I went to Animal Kingdom.   We went on Safari, then went on Expedition Everest and Dinosaur.  After that we played in the fossil pits and went to a bird show.

Then we went to Magic Kingdom where Justin met us.   We went on Star Tours, Buzz light year and Brett earned his drivers license on the speedway.  From there it was Pirates, Splash mountain, Haunted mansion and a few others.  The lines were so short we did everything we wanted to that night.

The next day was Epcot.  Brett's and my favorite.  There we went on Space Ship Earth, Mission to Space, Test Track, Soaring and a few others.  The ones we liked the most we road 2x.

The last day we spent at Hollywood studios.  Brett's favorite of the trip was the Stunt car show.   We also went on Tower of Terror and a few other rides.  Including Star Tours 2x.  At the end of the day we went swimming again.

All and all we had a blast but it was exhausting.  Glad to be home and have Caleb back but sad to be back to reality. 

we had great weather and a great time.

Nice weekend

Last week at work was a tough one.  I worked a ton of hours, and even worked on my Friday off.  So by the time Saturday came around I really needed a good weekend.  

The weather was pretty bad on Saturday.  It rained and rained and rained before finally turning to snow.  Our back yard is a lake.  Luckily it was all away from the house.

Even though we couldnt go outside we sure had some fun inside.  I think I have the 2 cutest boys in the world and when they smile and giggle it makes everything wonderful.

We had fun doing rainy day activities. 

Both boys took them so seriously

By Sunday the weather was perfect and we got to go outside and build snow forts.

All Bundled up to go play in the snow

Had fun playing in the snow, but wouldnt keep a hat or gloves on so it was short.

Caleb wants to be like his brother.  Whatever Brett does Caleb copies

Love the look

He wont smile for the camera anymore.  This is his new pose

January

Seems like I never blog anymore.  Life is just sort of moving along like usually and I havent been getting pictures. 

A few weeks ago we went to the Golden Spike- just a fun little drive to get out of the house. 

Thursday night we went to Mascot night at Weber state.  Got to watch a fun basketball game, enjoy the kids, and eat lots of treats.

Lots of pictures to come... Disney world in 17 days!!!!!!
