Best Friends!

So I really do not want to become one of those people that only talk about there pets...so I will try not to do too many posts about Copper. Even though he is the cutest dog EVER! When we first got Copper he seriously loved me more than anyone! Well things have changed! Copper is now Matt's little shadow. Everywhere Matt is you will see Copper. Everytime Matt leaves the house and Copper doesn't go with him he has separation anxiety and just sits at the door and barks. It is cute how much they love eachother!




Have you ever seen a dog lay like this? He is so weird!

Christmas 2009

Ok I know that I am a little late but Merry CHristmas and Happy New year!!!We had such a busy but great Christmas season! I love it! I love all the family parties, and I have a ton of family parties:)



The annual Klc Lion House dinner was great! Great food thanks to Cyd:)

For Christmas this year Matt and I went to St George with my family. We were sad that we weren't with the Klc's and didn't get to talk to his brothers that are on there missions, but we still had fun. We stayed in Dixie Colleges cabin in Pine Valley and it was SO much fun! We got there on Christmas Eve and left the day after Christmas so it was a fast trip, but it was worth it.
There were about 30 of us there including my Grandma and Grandpa Gines, my Uncle Scott and his family, My Uncle Bart and his family, and my famliy. We had so much fun just hanging out, playing games, eating tons of food, having a spiritual devotional, ping pong tournament, and of course opening presents!










I know that I say this all the time but I really do have the BEST family in the world! I really could not love them any more! I am so blessed to have such a great relationship with all of them! Not only my immediate family but also my extended family. I love you guys so much! Thanks for making it the best Christmas EVER!


These two boys (my cousin Colten and my brother Chris) have a special place in my heart. We have all grown up so close and I have such a deep love for them. They have given me a hard time that is for sure and have been the center of so many of my prayers and I can not even express how proud I am of them! I am pretty sure that they were making fun of me in this picture because I was crying, but I had good reason. (kinda) In the next few months these boys will be getting there mission papers so this was our last Christmas with them for two years. I am sad for myself, but I am so happy that they are choosing to go and serve the Lord and sacrifice two years of there lives to become the best they can be! I love you Chirs and Colten!!!
