Valentine's Day Crafts

So I have been extra crafty lately and I love it!!!

Here is what I made for Valentine's Day...

Thank you to my Mom, Stevie and Mandy for your help, supplies, ideas and good company :)

Christmas Crafts

My friend Mandy and I have been crafting often.  Here are some cute crafts we did for Christmas:

Disneyland

Disney Treats

So this year for Christmas my Parents decided to take everyone to Disneyland.  Well in preparation I made some fun Mickey Mouse treats to take along. 

I also made a cute headband:

Turkey Trot

Michael and I decided to take up running.  I know what was I thinking, I have always hated running, but it has been fun exercising with my hubby.  Anyway, we ran our first race on Thanksgiving morning.  In Mesa they have a 10k race called the turkey trot.  Even though we weren't any where close to the front, it was still a huge accomplishment for me just to finish. Now we need to find the next race to keep us motivated to continue running.

Fall Crafts

So I have been busy making all kind of fun crafts.  But I only took pictures of a few.


For Fall my friend Mandy and I made these, aren't they cute!  They were so easy.  My mom got the kits off etsy.  Here's the link if you are interested.  She has really cute Christmas craft kits too. http://www.etsy.com/shop/wellgood?ref=ss_profile

 

Then I wanted to make a fall wreath.  I barely got it done before Thanksgiving, but at least it was up for a few days.

Lake Powell 2011

HaHa... I just realized I created this post months ago, but never posted it.  Well better late than never!

This trip was awesome!  The usual skiing, wake boarding, swimming, jet skiing, slot canyons, pirates, ect, ect...  But this year we made the long trek to  Rainbow Bridge.

July...

July was awesome, we had a blast this month.

It stared it out with Forth of July in Pinetop!  We went there with our friends Jenny and Nolynn.  We spent our time relaxing, eating, and we went to the Taylor Rodeo!

Then we made our annual trip to Lake Powell.....Separate Post....check out the pics.

Then at the end of July we went back up to Pinetop/Eager for a Non-Reunion for Michael's side of the family.  I call it a non-reunion is because a reunion was planned, but then cancelled due to the huge fires outside of Eager.  Well the fires were under control and everyone still wanted to get together so we did!  The weekend was so much fun, great food, horseback riding, quads, and fun company!  It was a blast.

June....

So I know June was busy, but I can't remember everything we did. But two of my favorite thing were going to Utah for Logan's baby blessing!

And Stephen and Brittney got Married!!!!

The other great part of June.... I was called to be the Primary president in my ward.  I was the second counselor, so lucky I knew a little bit of what I was doing, but had a lot more to learn.  It has been so much fun.  Being in the Primary is my favorite calling.  I feel so lucky to be with all the children!

May.... Hawaii

May....

So in May Michael got to go to Hawaii for the first time.  We went to Maui with my parents.  We had such a blast.  The weather was great, the beaches were beautiful and the food was delicious. 

While in Hawaii we got to snorkel. Michael and I saw tons of fish, sea turtles, and we even saw a manta ray.  This is a first for both of us.  It was amazing how big and graceful these rays are.

We also went to Haleakala Crater.  Wow it was cold and windy up there.

We took a tour boat snorkeling around Lania.   I was a great trip aboard a giant adventure raft.  While over at lania we saw an octopus and a huge pod of dolphins.

We drove the road to Hana, which was a lot of fun and worth the day long trip.  Over by Hana we did the pepiwa trail which was amazing.  There are gorgeous waterfall all along the way, a bamboo forest and at the end is a 200 foot waterfall that is spectacular.

When we came off the trail at the base where the water flows to the ocean is the seven sacred pools or the .... The pools area was closed so we couldn't go swimming, but it was still beautiful to see.

Also along the road to Hana we saw a black sand beach, red sand beach, Charles Lundbergs grave, ate coconut candy, walked some lava tubes and went through who knows how many twists and turns.

After Maui we took two days on Oahu. There we went to the Dole pineapple plantation and had pineapple ice cream.  Unfortunately Michael and my dad didn't want to do the giant maze... oh well.

We went to the Polyneisan Culture Center, which I love.  It was so fun.  I really enjoyed our day there.  While there we did a luau and say their show Breath of Life. Wow, that was truly amazing, if you ever make it over to the Polynesian Center make sure you see the show.

We also got to see the Hawaii Temple.

The next day we spent at Pearl Harbor.  Also a must if you go to Oahu.  We did the audio tour which was definitely the way to go.

Over all it was a fabulous trip.  I think Michael would go again sometime :)
