Man!!! So much to blog about! This will have to be a multi-part blog so here goes...February started in Arizona for Jacob and Joni's wedding (my cousin-Congrats guys!!!) We had so much fun...Beach's know how to party man!!! And Allen is for sure one of the best DJ's in AZ..Holla!!! We danced and hung out playing games until around midnight and then Corrie and I hung out with Uncle Rodney until 2am...It was fun. There was some interesting chat about bananas and the proper color of perfection but what do you expect at 2am??!!!??? That's as good as it gets ;) Then I drove to Utah for two GLORIOUS weeks with Dave, Corrie and the girls...It was so fun. Madie was a trooper on the car ride only having one melt down at Hoover Dam and it lasted for all of 10 minutes...She rocks! The car ride highlight would have to be Elle bugging Mae by pulling on her dress in the car and Mae screaming her lungs out. When I asked Elle why she was doing that, she answered honestly with a smile: "because it's funny..." That girl is awesome! More on her later...Well here are some pics of our awesome trip up to Utah. Thanks for putting up with us Huish Family!!! It was awesome! I STILL can't believe that in two weeks we couldn't accomplish everything we wanted to! How is that!!??!!

Ok. This is still part of the February trip but it totally deserved it's own post...While I was in Utah, I got to babysit a few times for Dave and Corrie so they could go out and Corrie could get some of her decorating jobs finished. One fine afternoon, I was doing this very thing and the girls were playing downstairs in the playroom while I rested on the couch upstairs. "They will be fine, just relax until I get back" were the words Corrie left me with...and that's what I was doing until I heard Mae say in her sqeaky little voice, "Elle!!! Why did you POOP in that?!? You're not supposed to POOP in that!!!" I'm pretty sure there was a record needle scratch in my head as I thought, "Did she just say POOP???" So I got up and walked to the top of the stairs and asked, "Mae, did someone poop down there?" She replied, "Yea, Elle did..." I know there is no bathroom down there and my mind began racing through all the different scenarios I would encounter upon getting down there...NOTHING could've prepared me...As I get to the bottom of the stairs, I see Mae taking "something" from Elle...It's a SNACK-SIZE ZIPLOCK BAG WITH A STEAMING HOT TURD IN IT!!! I know what your thinking and no, I'm not kidding. I took the bag which had been neatly sealed closed by Mae and dumbfoundedly asked, "Is that real poop?!?" I couldn't believe it... "Yea, it's Elle's." That was all Mae could say about it. I knew there must be more poop somewhere because how could a 2 1/2 year old "catch" her own poop in a snack size bag without making a mess right? WRONG!!! This girl CAUGHT her own poop in a snack-size bag without getting ANY POOP ANYWHERE ELSE!!! A miracle poop-tastrophe! That's all you can all it! Needless to say, Elle will be a great camping wife for some lucky fellow...that is, IF she can live this down and get a date someday! But this had to be told and shared with anyone and everyone!!! And so, I'm sorry Elle!!!
Up on my knees and nowhere to go!!! I am ready though!!!
My AWESOME new sunglasses from Nana and Papa!!!
