New bunny

Here she is the one and only BUNNY. Carmel. She is the same color as Brittin's hair and is sweet and smart. Brittin loves watching her eat, drink and poop. She kept her up all night running around. THe boys love her too. We haven't had to clean the cage yet. So things might change. We are trying to get it Litter box trained. But we don't know how. Brittin loves feeding her and playing with her. This is a dwarf Netherland bunny it should only get to be 2 lbs but it does have sharp claws. We have the bunny in her room. Hopefully I will be able to handle this animal. I have kept 2 frogs for 6 months and a crab a live for 4 years, so now we are moving on to warm blooded animals. Pray the same thing doesn't happen that happen to the cats.

Christmas day 2010

We were in grand jct for Christmas. There was no snow there so the kids were out side all the time, playing with the dogs, riding bikes, swinging on the tire swing. Kolbryn got his monster truck and lego airplane and a remote control Helicopter which he fights to get away from James. Brecken got to open his birthday presents finally, he was in trouble from his birthday and never got to open them until then, he also got a monster truck and candy, Brittin got her bunny cage and a note telling her where to pick up her bunny, Santa was afraid that the bunny would get car sick on the way home, so we had to get it on our way home, Brittin got some zhu zhu pet things so she could have something to play with until her bunny got to her, she also got her BYU soccer ball she has been waiting for since spring, Logan got his D C shoes and his lego cade bane that he had to have. He got an Ipod from grammy and has not put it down, There are no songs on it but he has run out the batteries 3 times in 3 days just playing games. He said he didn't know he wanted it but he was glad he got it. We went bowling with a cop, which was free bowling they had at the bowling alley, we went 2 times once on Christmas eve and the other time on Monday and had a good time. Grammy taught the kids how it feels to be in a straight jacket and Logan is trying it out on Kolbryn. Logan got interviewed for the news but he must had ended up on the cutting room floor, I think this was the only time my kids have ever watched the news, just waiting to see if they were on. My niece had her ponytail in a shot and my nephew had the back of his head in one too, but that was it. Brittin said that was a rip off. We had to leave Grand Jct early because everyone was talking so rudely and Brittin was happy about that so she could get her Bunny. Now we are home and we switch Logan into Brecken's room and Brecken in with Kolbryn. My gosh that was hard but with team work we got a lot done. I still don't know what I am going to do with all this new Christmas stuff. It was sad getting Brecken out of his room, that my baby is old enough to share means I am soo old. Logan is just ex tactic that he can have his own space, when we moved into the house he was so scared to be by himself and now he is jumping for joy with his privacy. TImes are a changing, way too fast.

time worp

The 2 younger boys really wanted their heads shave, so james finally did it, but first we got some predictions of what these boys are going to look like in the 50s. I still don't like their hair, James bicked Kolbryn's and just shaved Breckens. When we go visiting family and friends everyone wants to touch their heads. Kolbryn got called Mega mind and Brecken is Caillou.

setting up Christmas

This year putting up the tree was a challenge. Every day we were going to set it up, the children would get in trouble and I would say we are not setting it up today. After a week of this I say only Brecken and I would set it up, but Brittin and Kolbryn earned it back. Logan was almost there but had a preteen melt down and was not allowed to touch the tree. he did set up christmas stuff around the house. Sorry to say I put the lights on and then said decorate the tree, then I plugged in the lights, they didn't work, so I had them take the trimmings off and then I put other lights on, then those didn't work and finally I got I strand on their and the kids didn't want to decorate the tree any more. So All we had was 7 orniments and no star on the tree this year. But we need make snowmen, snowcaves and put up lights out side. So I guess that counts as something. They tried making snowman one day and the snow was too hard, but the next time they tried it took them 5 min. to make huge snowmen. Their snowcaves were made with a team effort from the neighbors with tunnels and everything, it was so nice to have them out of the house and playing. But in the morning they shrunk and they decided to destroy them. But it is only the begin of winter so I guess we will have many chances to make better ones.
