January Photo Dump

Not too many pictures this month. January was very uneventful. But here is what we have:

Can you tell I've been dieting?

We got to babysit Laykin for a little bit while the rest of their family ran some errands. She was perfect for us!

This is how long it takes Jon to down an entire 4-piece waffle complete with butter and syrup.

I made cookies with Britian

...He ate more batter than he ate cookies

After a nightly work out at the gym. I know. Gross.

Boring, But A Little Funny

Why do the early months of the year pass by so slowly and uneventfully? January, February, and March always seem to tediously drag on and on with nothing to show for them.  It's not that I haven't had time or have forgotten to blog, it's just that nothing eventful has happened! Work, Dinner, Clean, Gym, shower, bed. Every day. That's it. Boring!

But I will stop complaining. About a week ago something a little funny did actually happen. I don't even remember what it was, but Jon made a comment that COULD have been taken in the wrong way. I, knowing Jon and what he really meant by the comment, of course just teased him about it. But I guess he felt like a dork afterwards because while I was in the kitchen cleaning the dishes, I heard singing coming from the living room.  The following is a video of what I heard. You can only see Jon in part of it because I was trying to record it without him seeing. So, without further ado, my hilarious husband:

New Years Resolutions

On New Years Day most of my family met up and went out for brunch at Denny's. 

We spent the rest of the day watching movies, and doing a whole lot of nothing, which was nice and relaxing! But before we went to bed that night, we sat down together and made our 2014 New Years Resolutions!

Most of our "Together Goals" are about finances: Saving a certain amount of every paycheck, etc. Then we also really want to get better at consistent family prayer and scripture study. We have always been off and on. 1 day here, 2 days forgetting, 2 days remembering, 1 day forgetting, etc.

My goals include losing some of this lovely muffin top I have worked so hard to create, and finally stop biting my nails! I have been biting them ever since I could chew, and they have always looked awful. I really want to make a big effort to try and stop that this year. It's gonna be hard, but if I can do it, I will be so proud of myself!

Jon made some school goals and also a goal to stop leaving all the lights on in the apartment. He's already doing great! But I already think he's perfect, so I'm biased.

December Photo Dump

At the beginning of December, I took some newborn pictures of Laykin. For some of her pictures, my sister wanted her to wear this cute little pink tutu. After the photo shoot was done, one thing led to another and...

Poor Cappy.

We took Britian up to Thanksgiving Point to see "Frozen" and then go so the Christmas Lights one night.

Speaking of Britian, I love how he cuddles!

Here was our Christmas card this year for those of you who didn't see it:

Togo is getting a little too fat for his basking rock...

I'm so grateful that Jon comes with me to the gym all the time! It's so much easier when I don't have to go by myself.

The next three were some extras that were taken when we did our Christmas/Anniversary Photo Shoot:

And now the best of the outtakes from that photoshoot:

This one cracks Jon up every time he sees it.

No, my hair isn't turning gray. The snow made my hair all wet and then it froze!

Didn't quite make it in time before the timer went off.

Still not quite ready.

And some frozen lake fun:
