February

We are still redoing our kitchen if you've been following the story on Facebook. Manuel has had to take off 3 days from work so we can get it done. I can't wait to post pictures when it's finished.

Cambrey is getting so big I can't believe it. I'm excited for spring so I can take these kids to the park. We've been having fun making Valentine's treats this month as you can see. I have posted some yummy recipes on the food blog.

Cambrey is Getting Bigger

Nothing new going on this week other than renovating our kitchen. I added lot's more recipes to my food blog. We'll post more pics next week!!

The Hof Winterfest

We went to the Hof Winterfest on Friday and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf was a special guest. We were sitting just a couple tables away from him. He was with his wife, daughter and grandson. We were hoping to meet him but we were to chicken with all of his security guards around him. We saw them turn so many away, but then there were others who took a quick chance and got lucky. He is our favorite apostle and so it was really special to be so close to him.

Our kids were dancing all night right in front of his table and he and his family were amused. Finally, before the night ended we couldn't take it any longer and we sent Gabe to to bravely go tap on his shoulder. And he did. First he went to the wrong guy and had a conversation with him and came back all proud of himself. We told him he went to the wrong guy. So he did it again and he tapped Pres. Uchtdorf on the shoulder and said, "Hi, I am German and so is my Daddy." and Pres. Uchtdorf smiled and said, "Really? Your Daddy is German?" and then he laughed and patted Gabe's head. Then he ran back to us. The body guard was looking at us and laughing. It was surreal. I filmed him speaking and you can see my video below. What a special night! There was a newspaper reporter there who interviewed me and Manuel and here is the link to the article where you can read about it. http://www.standard.net/topics/scholarship/2011/01/14/25th-annual-hof-german-winterfest-kicks-ogden

Candid Moments

Last weekend was cousin Easton's birthday. He had a Thomas the Train party and my sister made the cutest Thomas cake. The kids made cute little wooden trains too. It was also a week of candid photos. Enjoy!
