Our trip to Kansas!

We had a really fun trip to Kansas! The hotel we stayed at an amazing pool. This was the kiddy part of the pool!
It had two big slides a lazy river, a place for the boys to play basketball, and some of those floating Lilly pad thingies. I feel bad I didn't get a picture of the whole pool!
We went to the mall, and although it was a pretty bad mall I got a couple cute pictures of this in there. My dad also bought me and my mom and sisters a pedicure. It was my first pedicure so it was quite an event for me!

This is my brother how played basketball. There team lost their first game to three Rivers. They were pretty good but we could have beat them. After we lost the first game, it was pretty sad. The highest we could take was seventh and the boys had lost most of their enthusiasm. We lost the second game we played, but we really really shouldn't have lost that one. We were up by fifteen in the second half, and we still lost! I think that's what makes college basketball so fun, no matter what the lead is it's never over til the games over. It seems like in high school if a team goes down by ten or more points the game is pretty much over, but in college the lead can always change! We are still really proud of Jordan for even making it as far as they did. He is a good brother, and we would all drive the seventeen hours again if we had the opportunity.
This is Jordan with Janie and Addi. I think Addi is his biggest fan, but I might be a little biased!!

We got to the game early enough the last day to sit on the front row. Addi was pretty excited about the ball game.
Jake was pretty embarrassed to get this picture taken since we had to walk out onto the floor, but it turned out cute.






We all had Lancer clothes on at the ball game. I hope we didn't embarrass Jordan too much since we were all matching, and we were the loudest ones in the stands! Two of my brothers didn't come, and I feel really bad they didn't! We missed them! We had a great time, and I'm so grateful for Mom and Dad because without them we wouldn't have been able to go! I love my Family so much! I don't know what I'd do without them. Oh Yeah I'm pretty excited because my brother Jordan got his mission papers sent today! He should get his call in a couple of weeks!

Random pictures I thought were cute from the trip!

We drove seventeen hours without too many stops both ways and Addi was pretty good for most of the trip! It was a long drive, but it was well worth it!
Jake'll be so embarrassed I'm putting this one on here, but it's pretty funny so I don't mind!
I thought this one was cute. Our room was right above the pool, so the kids were just watching when they couldn't go swimming.
Addi's just hanging out!

Happy Birthday!

This was Addi's Birthday cake. It was pretty dang cute, but only because I didn't make it!
She wasn't the best at blowing out the candles. She had to get really close and Jake still had to help her!

We had Addi's birthday the day before her real birthday because that's when we were leaving for Kansas! We had a lot of fun, and there were lots and lots of people there to celebrate with her!
While we were in Chicago Hallee had one of these couches and Addi loved it. When my mom asked me what she should get her I thought that this would be cute and I was right Addi loves it!! She was so excited for her couch!

Her Grandma Abbott gave her this Cinderella dress! Her favorite thing now is to wear her dress, sit on her couch, and watch Cinderella. She keeps saying "boppity Boo" for some reason she forgets the Bippity.
Grandma Rae gave her this cute ballet costume. She really does look so cute in it!

Happy Birthday Addi!

This didn't turn out quite how I was expecting but it's still cute so I'll post it!

Happy Easter!

We didn't do much for easter this year because we thought we were going to be out of town. Well she got lots of stuff but we didn't do an Easter egg hunt or anything! She still doesn't really understand holidays yet, so they're still not way fun, but I can tell they will be soon!

I think her uncle and cousins were more excited about her toys then she was!
She may not be the griliest gril ever, but she's getting there!

It doesn't take much to make Addi happy! (Some of the time)

I know this makes me sound horrible but when I have tons of homework Addi has to watch movies. If she sits in different places (like a laundry basket instead of the floor) she'll stay occupied longer. I got a lot done this day!

We're going to Kansas!

We're really going to Kansas as you can probably tell I'm pretty excited!!! We leave on Monday! Addi's brithday is on Monday so were having her birthday party on Sunday. I still can't believe she's going to be two. It's incredible how fast they grow up! We'll be in Kansas till probably Sunday, but I guess that depends on how well he does so GO LANCERS!!!

We're going to Kansas!! Well hopefully!

We went back to watch Jordan play basketball last week in Torrington, Wyoming. We had so much fun! We never imagined that it would be as much fun as it was. We didn't get to see Jordan very much so that wasn't good but he played so good, well everyone played so good! This is Addi sleeping on the floor during the first half of the game. This is how it was every game. She slept during every first half. All the people around us couldn't believe she could sleep through so much noise! I had to explain to everyone that she'd been going to ball games and track meets since three days after she was born, so she knows how to tune out the noise!!
This is Jordan's team! I feel bad the pictures kind of blurry! I still can't believe they won. They won the semi final game by one, and the final game went into double overtime. I really about had a heart attack. It was so much fun.
We're so proud of Jordan. He played really good (except for he fouled out the last game!) Addi just loves Jordan. Actually she loves everyone except for Brittany and I can't figure out why. She tried everything she could to make her like her, and she just never would! I"ll work on her Britt! You'll be her favorite in no time!! I love my family! We always have a lot of fun being together.
I'm trying to talk Jake into going to Kansas! At this point it's a maybe but he really needs to stay home and work so I know it will take a lot of begging and sucking up to him!! :) Hopefully we can ride with my parents so it won't cost us too much!! Thanks again Jordan, We're pretty proud of you!!
