Late Valentines Day!

So I'm really late at posting our fun Valentines Week! That morning I made pancakes for the kids! yes they were heart shaped.
Tyler had to work that morning but came home around noon for our heart shaped sandwich lunch and heart jello. He surprised us with flowers. He brings flowers to the girls every valentines day now. They love getting flowers too and think they are just beautiful!!! They are going to high maintenance when they get older!!!
Then we were off to Omsi for some good science fun! They have a playground in there that the kids love. It was nice to let them run around and play. We had a great Valentines Day together as a family!

Here are my flowers that I got.

The girls and their gorgeous flowers!! Notice their new dresses!! They got some money in the mail from their grandma for Valentines Day! Addie had to have this skirt that she had seen at a store!! I took her to the store to get it thinking that it was on sale and it wasn't!! So I was not going to let her buy the skirt. she was so sad cause all she wanted was the pink skirt. So she said she would use her other money at home to buy all of the skirt. It was way to much drama for one cute little pink skirt. But..... the good news is she has worn it about every other day since she got it and loves it!! So it was well worth my money right! Thanks Grandma for helping her buy her cute pink skirt!

Here the girls are dressed up as Squirrel at OMSI! They had lots of fun and keep asking if we can go back!

Wonderful additions

I just had to share because I am so proud to be a new Aunt and that new babies are being born!

So a couple of weeks ago was full of fun exciting news for our families. We had 2 new babies born! One on Tyler's side and one on my side.

Ty's brothers wife had a baby born on Tyler's birthday. They didn't know what they were having and ended up having a BOY!! Which we all knew they would, only cause they already had a boy! They were so kind and thoughtful they named their sweet boy after Tyler since he was born on his Birthday!


Which by the picture is the cutest baby boy

We can't wait to see him, he is so little and cute! Congrats to the Overall family!

Our next blessing came a few days later... This little angel was born to my brother and sis-in law! Also by the picture you can see how beautiful she is! I love her little kissin cheeks!
We get to go see them in a month and are so excited to go and see her and the other girls. My kids can't wait to go on our spring break vacation!! Congrats to my bro and his wife.


As I thought about this fun week, I realized how precious life and little ones are. It is truly a miracle to have a baby. What a great blessing the Lord has given us to bring these sweet spirits into the world.

More Kunz fun!

If you know my family we love and did I mention LOVE to take pictures. So I couldn't decide which ones to post. I have way to many, so for today I will post these ones!! Here are some more great pictures to show how much fun we had and how much we are missing our family right now!!

Here is Bro and me and Jackson while we were on our sleigh ride. My dad fixed his sled and got some new horses. Which we went on about every other day while we were there!! We loved it! Just like when we were little. We use to take the team out every night to feed the cows. We would hurry and finish feeding the calves so that we could ride on the back of the sled with Grandpa Kunz. Taylee cried the day we were suppose to go home cause she just wanted to ride the team of horses one more time!! So I gave in and we stayed one more day and my dad hooked the team up just for her and went on a fun ride!! Thanks dad we had so much fun!

Notice also in the picture my cool coat. It was my Dad's when we were little and he still has it!! It is a classic!

Here is a picture of the team. We went on a sleigh ride with our neighbors, who were so fun!! The team had to take a little rest since we had so many people on the sleigh.





















Now this was one of the best presents ever!!! My brother took a picture of him and blew it up and then printed it off on my moms computer! Some may think its a waste of ink.... oh no it wasn't it was the best ever!! We hung it up in my little brothers room so he can always see my brother when he wants too!!! We thought it was so great that I did one for Tyler for his birthday! I'll have to post later.


And the highlight of the trip home!!!! Burke came home off his mission! It was so much fun to see him. We only saw him for a day, but we showed him how crazy his family really was and it might be a good thing for him to go to college the next day!! or just don't get us all together!!
Here is the best picture of the whole two weeks!

Here is my family at our finest!! We had to do something to finish off the fun week we had together so...... Here we are at the airport picking up Burke. As we walked in people were wondering what kind of freaks we really were!! Then someone finally asked what we were doing so we told them we were waiting for our brother who was coming home off a mission.. As people heard this they wanted to stay and wait to see what his face would look like! It was so much fun!! Thanks for the fun week everyone can't wait until July when we get to see everyone again. I'm not sure Mom is ready for us. 6 months is not long enough for her to recover from all the loudness we bring to her house!! I'm so glad we got a family picture of us!!

Way to much fun!

After braving the roads we decided to head home after Christmas. We made it home for my cousins wedding which was so nice and fun! Then we headed home for almost 2 weeks of pure fun and craziness!! When all of us get together we seem to just feed off each other and get way to loud and way to crazy. My parents try to see who can find the best gag gift. For sure my mom won this year. She gave my dad a singing cow that sings in Spanish. she says kiss me lots!! Its so funny! Here are some pictures to highlight the craziness!
















My mom is opening her singing chicken. It walks and then when you hold its neck it acts like you are choking it! I'm not sure where my dad shops but he finds the best things! He shops way to much on the Internet!!





















Here are my dads cute cow stuff. We found the hat that moos when you push a button and then he is holding the famous singing cow! She is gorgeous. Good find mom!















This is my favorite picture! My oldest brother was flying into Jackson hole and we wanted to be like the visitors that go there and are dressed in great ski stuff or have brand new western clothes on! We planned all this out and then the airport shut down due to the snow, so he flew in somewhere else, but he got a welcoming site when he got to my parents house! This was one of the many and I mean many funny and great things we did while at home!!
It was a great 2 weeks. We had more fun than we've had in a long time. I will have to post more pictures later. The kids loved going on the snowmobile and riding on the sleigh with the team of horses. They can't wait to go up to Granny's again soon!!

Christmas Eve Party

This is the first year we weren't at one of our families house. We were excited to start our own traditions but sad that we aren't with our families. So we decided to have a fancy dinner for Christmas Eve. My girls love to dress up and eat on our china so we had a fun dinner together then we had a little program. We read the Christmas story and then the girls sang Christmas songs to us. Then we got to open one gift which was..... Pj's. Today we found the best Pj's for Ty they are WII pj's and we couldn't resist. We had to get them!!! Merry Christmas to everyone hope that you all have a great day.

Heres my cute family in their new Pj's! All the little girls in my family got the same Pj's. Pink is their favorite color!!

Here are the plates we used and my new favorite thing... the mitten on the plate,it is a silverware holder. I love them and think it was a great purchase!! Its all about making it pleasing to the eye right!!

Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!!

This week has been crazy!! We have been snowed in all week. Well maybe I should say school has been canceled all week. We loved the snow on Sunday when it first came and now its getting to be a little to much. You see if we were in Idaho it would be great but we are in Oregon where they don't believe in plowing the roads or putting de-icer down and then after the snow comes rain and it freezes!! Its beautiful!! Here is some of our highlights of our fun adventurous week!



















This is tonight. We have shoveled the drive way twice now and its still snowing. Church is still on but we'll see if they really cancel it tomorrow! I got out of the house tonight by walking to Trader joes for fun! It was nice to get some fresh air and get out of the hosue!

Heres buddy enjoying the sled ride!! He actually really liked it. Hopefully when we are in Idaho he will like it too!

Here the two kids that take turns pulling each other all afternoon! They have had a great week together! We are so glad we have great neighbors.

These two have had great fun this week! They had a little nutcracker party. Which they had so much fun wearing their pricess nightgowns. We are sure glad they have each other so they can play and keep each other busy!!!

What a great suprise for Christmas!

Hopefully we're almost done!!

Last week Ty got another surgery! We are hoping its the last one he has to get. He got the screws taken out of his foot. He is now back to wearing the boot for 6 more weeks. The bones need to grow back together!! Hopefully they grow back fast!!! The screws look a lot smaller in the picture.

Here are his scars. He only got 2 cuts this time. He foot is swollen but not as bad as it was before. Things are looking up! Its been a long 5 months. We are heading home for Christmas and he is off limits of riding anything that can tip over an off limits to ski. He made plans to ski but no luck this year. So I guess he gets to enjoy his time at home while I do a little skiing with my brothers. Hopefully I can keep up its been a couple of years.
