Happy 2012!!!

We had an amazing Christmas, and hope you did too!! We are so very blessed, we were surrounded by love, family, friends and good food.

The boys were a bit spoiled as usual :) And I got my dream camera from the very bestest husband in the world. WOOT-WOOT now its on to the learning how to use it part.

Luke and Kolby got matching "big boy" bikes from Grandma and grandpa. Even snow and cold did not stop them from trying them out.

Notice grandma and grandpas cutie-pootie new puppy peaking out from behind grandpas leg.

Kolby needed a little help from dad but as you can tell from the smile loved every minute.
Once we were home and they had their helmets on they practiced some more on our road. Yes Luke is wearing snow boots..... if there is snow on the ground we can't keep him out of them.

After a few practice runs Kolby had it down. Dad ran along side, you know just to be on the safe side :)

Yesterday we went on our first hike of the year. We headed down to Zions National Park where it was a balmy 70 degrees. The boys got new backpacks that allow them to carry their own water with a tube to drink it. So of course we had to try them out.

We ended up hiking 6 miles total with a stop for lunch in the middle. The boys did so well!! I think this is the first long hike we have gone on that they walked their very own selves the whole way.

So hopefully we are well on our way to keeping our resolutions to....

Get in shape &

Eat better

Lets make 2012 the best year ever!!
