love to laugh

more 4 year old conversations

Girl: Are you going to go outside and play with me?
Boy:  You know- I've been playing with you a lot lately- I just need a break.
Girl: (hurt look on her face)
Boy: I mean we're still friends, I'm still you're boyfriend, but sometimes boyfriends just need a break sometimes, I mean right, sometimes boyfriends just need a break.
Girl: Oh


Music Teacher: Have any of you heard this song before?
Boy: Yes, I listened to it on the keyboard at my G-mama's house.


Yes- I will now refer to all the grandmas in my life as my G-mama- because I thought it was awesome!

Noah and the deLeon Wedding

We are still on our Christmas vacation and loving the time off and in the sun.  The first couple of days we were able to spend in Utah with the Olsons.  We visited our newest nephew- Noah- and absolutely fell in love with him.  He has the best shade of red hair and is so so cute.  It had been a long time since I had held a baby so newly born- it had only been a couple of days since he was born. 

We also went to Utah to attend my cousin Carly's wedding.  The temple sealing was amazing and I am so happy for her and her new husband.  It's always great to be able to hear and remember what is really important in our lives.

I am on my parent's computer and I have no idea how to post edited pictures from it, so I'll just wait, because they do look better edited...

I'll also post about our awesome San Diego Carey Adventures!

yes, it's true, Josh is awesome


I know.. pretty awesome right.  

Reasons my husband is great:
1- just look at the picture
2- he cleans the house and kitchen more than I do
3- he has his last final today for 2010
4- he makes dinner a lot- because I forget and am too lazy
5- he is stuck with me for eternity
6- he dresses better than I do most days
7- he has awesome red hair- the reason I wanted to date him when I first saw him
8- he is hilarious- if you don't believe me ask my brother and cousins- they love to hear him talk
9- he lets me eat all the popcorn
10- he shaved right after the picture was taken

Riley Mckay

So I decided to start an etsy shop!  I've named it Riley Mckay Desings.  I'm kind of nervous about it and pretty sure no one will buy anything, but it gives me a reason to sew and have fun!

Why the name Riley Mckay?

I named it after my two younger sisters- Madison Riley and Mckay Kristine. I remember as a child praying that I would get a sister- I was lucky enough to get 2.  I love them very much and I enjoy hanging out with them.

What do I sell?

As of right now, not a whole lot... but I'll be making purses and other things I think of.  I have some great headbands I've made that I use when running that are great because they don't slip at all- so when I get the right materials I'll add some of those.  I made some for my sister and her friends on the volleyball team and they loved them.

Check it out! Let me know what you think!

Thanks

Elder Gillette

I can't believe he is gone!  Conner went into the MTC today!!  I just know he'll be great.  I am so proud of my little brother.  I love that he is making this great decision for himself.  This makes me feel really old...

.... tomorrow...

I found this today and absolutely loved it and laughed out loud.  I miss this little girl!

 I had fun watching videos on my computer today-- this one also made me laugh.

In June when my family was in Oregon we decided to have our own "minute to win it" challenges.  This is Conner trying to get at least 60 on the pedometer that is tied to his head.  Sorry it is the wrong way- I don't know if there is a way to turn it.
