UEA weekend...

Parker's cousin Jantsen came to to stay with us for UEA weekend!
these 2 boys played and played and played some more!
they had so much fun, they wore me out just watching them!!

reading books at night

silly boys  
they had fun with their "sleepovers" as parker would say every night. he loved that jantsen could sleep in his room. Surprisingly they were asleep each night by 9pm! guess they were each other out! 

playing outside, it was a beautiful weekend
the kids went in and out all day!
so not ready for winter...  (as it snowed today:(... boo

we also made halloween cookies... sadly no pictures. i know weird. but they had fun rolling out the dough and then jantsen and parker even made a snake out of the scraps, they were so proud. 
they sure were yummy though! (that is the problem i ate way too many!)

oh and i can't forget about the video clip that i took of them singing AND dancing to Selina Gomez' song "ROUND AND ROUND" it was quite hilarious. it was played on the Disney channel one day and they played it over and over.  they ran around the couch everytime the chorus came on. i laughed so hard. sadly i can't upload it (any ideas? better way to do it? i have had stuggles for awhile with video clips..)

 Parker and Jantsen
cars. trucks. trains
i think i saw a trail of them all day long everyday.
it was so funny, down the stairs, through the kitchen everywhere
boys are so fun

 Super Hero's
Jantsen :: Parker :: Adam

my favorite of the weekend i believe. they wore these capes
the whole time as they ran around saving ABBY
cousins are the best! (i thought i had a picture of abby with them, guess not)

 parker was sad when he had to leave, 

he said, it hasn't been 4 days yet mom! ... those 4 days went by way too fast!

they were like the energizer bunny... kept going and going

one day i did see them sit and watch a whole movie, guess they wore themselves out

or "how to train your dragon" helping out a little...it was their first time seeing it. 

cute by the way, I'd recommend seeing it!

we will have to do it again, 

my kids are already bored and asking for cousin JANTSEN to come back!

thanks for coming!! we love you

p.s. to end that fun weekend i FINALLY gave my 1st lesson in Relief Society!! i can say that i don't think i've ever been SO nervous. but in the end, i think i did good (i feel, at least) and i was sure glad that hour was over!ha i actually went over, i couldn't believe it! I added things into my lesson that i hadn't prepared for, and that just isn't like me, i had lots of notes, i won't lie! i know my prayers helped and the spirit was there.  
i learned so much and now, know more about baptism then i knew before that is fore sure!

that is what callings are for right!? thanks for all your support and comments.

i know it will be good calling for me. (at least i'll continue telling myself that)
