Wach Family Pictures 08

We finally got a family picture, the last one was my wedding and before that when I was like thirteen!! Don't get me wrong my Dad and I take a ton of pictures but we hardly get one with all of us in it! It was freezing and we did two different locations and changes so the kids were pretty cranky and Hunter was GQin it all of them, but at least we got one good one!

volcano

Ashley and Hunter made the volcano together out of a kit my parents got for us but, it wasn't completely dried before she left so we finally made it erupt last night. The original capsules didn't work so we did it the old fashion way with vinegar and baking soda. Good thing the Ott boys were there to do this! It kinda just ran down the volcano I was expecting an explosion since we were experimenting!

Happy Birthday Grandpa Bentley

January 4th was Grandpa's birthday and we all got together to celebrate him turning 82! We just LOVE Grandpa so very much! He is always at every family function big or small and always has a big smile on his face! All the grand and great grand kids adore him! Brielle of course helped him with his presents and licking the candles and Hunter had fun playing with all the cousins and Sophie kept yelling at Grandpa to feed her cake!

The reason the Utes won!!!

These are some of Utah's biggest fans!!!

Sugar Bowl Champs!!!

Just wanted to give a shout out to our favorite team the Sugar Bowl Champions!!! WOOT WOOT!! Go Utes!! I am so ecstatic that they won, everyone didn't think they deserved to go or wouldn't win and they came out and dominated Alabama!! Utah built a big early lead, then held off Alabama to cap a perfect season with a 31-17 win, WOW WHAT A GAME!!!!

Happy New Year/ Happy Birthday to me.

New Years Eve we headed to first night and hung out, the kids did all the jumpin bounce house things and Brielle even boogied to people singing karaoke! They had fireworks at 10pm for the kids and then we went to Pizza Factory for some hot coco. At home we barely stayed awake for midnight to roll around. Hunter went to bed and said he really needed his rest and Brielle didn't really understand the whole new year thing. My birthday which is also the same day as my Mother in law was well..... ordinary. TJ got the stomach flu everyone has been passing around. He felt really bad which makes me feel bad because he always goes to so much trouble to make my birthday special (I have always hated my birthday!) and all of his plans were ruined. But hey I got all my laundry done and we had a party at my in laws which was fun so the day wasn't a total loss. TJ made me blow out my candles when we got home so we were all getting ready for bed, nothing like a slice of cake before bed! Thanks for your thoughtfulness and thanks to everyone for the great gifts! TJ got me my kitchen aid that I have been wanting for a few years now and some new rugs for the kitchen! Love you all! And happy birthday Kathy you are the best hope you had a great day, you deserve it! We all love you so much and appreciate all you do for us and especially all the yummy dinners every Sunday! Whenever we need your help you are always there for all of us! Thank you!!
