18!

So it was Ty's birthday a couple of days ago and he turned 18! My mom thinks it is really weird how much we grow up in just the blink of an eye. She remembers us saying silly things we said, and walking to our first day of kintergarten, now the youngest will be walking to 5th grade next year! So... happy birthday ty! And sorry parents, we kids can't stop growing up:)

Night with the boys :)

So Dallin Varner my amazing cousin came and slept over during Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. Brynn went to his house so it was just Dallin, Parker, Ty, and me. It was pretty crispy:) but way fun! Parker and Dallin did an amazing puzzle that was 3D. It turned out really cool! Before going down stairs Ty had a granola bar that said especially for women. Lets just say... those things really are only for women:) Ha Ha!! Then we went down stairs and watched Dallin spit up water while trying to drink:). And don't forget the popcorn that Dallin loved oh so very much. The things we do when staying up late. In the morning we had Paninis for breakfast. And that's just how we do it. Oh how I LOVE THOSE BOYS!!

The 3D puzzle

Yes, only for women

Yep, that's the great Dallin

Dallins master Panini

COINS... YES

So it all started when Parker was looking for a certain penny from a certain year. Then Parker and I just started sorting all of the pennies we had. After we sorted all of the ones we had on the table Ty and Lindsey came over and we started looking for more and more pennies. After we had sorted almost every single penny in the house from 1959 to 2011 we got all of the quarters and nickles and so on. And then we just kept going. Yes me and Dallin counted today and the total came out to be $50.10:) The things that entertain us. So here are some pictures showing how awesome we are:)

That was when Parker and I were the only ones doing it...

It slowly got larger and larger

And the finished product

We are ready to go to the dollar store:)

Long Time No See!

I love Sundays! Especially when you see "family"(Summer, JD, and Lindsey) that you havn't seen forever and have missed them terribly! You know it has been too long when they stay and play with us from 4:30 to 12:00. :) We were singing, talking, playing games, and making a scrabble board with random weird words from the dictionary... I mean we are that smart:) We Love You Guys!!!

Reeds

Today our close family friends came over. It was a lot of fun being with them again! We made Cafe Rio salads which were amazing! And then we played games, talked, and had dessert. So thanks for coming over guys. And hope you have fun in Ireland:)

Oh Parker...

This is what happens when Parker steals my camera... he apparently loves taking pictures! So I had to show you his master pieces:) So here they are!

See the resemblance?

And that's why I love him!

South Africa:)

My family and I had some special guests for the Christmas break. My dad actually taught them on his mission. But that's another story ;). Any way, it was so much fun having them here! I miss them tons but hope to see them again sooner or later:) It was very special having Christmas with them and spending time with them. So thanks guys! Hope your trip was fun and you arrived safely home!

Saturday Moods

Yes, we decided to do crazy make up, dress all weird, and do weird hair. We had fun after playing just dance and almost eating the whole bag of skittles! So if you ever get bored call some friends up and do makeovers! And don't forget the photo shoot after! It's pretty great:)

- And that would be Shelbi

- Faith the Crabb

- Me Abby Skousen

- And of course I couldn't forget the Skittles bag and the just dance "thing". They were fully part of this too:) Hope your Saturday was as good as mine!

FLARP:}

Just some advice... if you are ever looking for flarp, then do it before they all get sold out and you need it the next day.  Sometimes you get really lucky and find one more at Walmart.  Did I mention it is usually cracked?  Moral of the story, don't procrastinate buying something you need by a certain date:)

Thank You Heather!

Thanks Heather!  If it wern't for heather I would be so lost at blogging:) She has shown me how to do everything!  So thank you!  I love you so so much!

New Years Eve!!!

Just Dance, Quesadillas, Psych, and Running up and down the streets making as much noise as we can... That's how I celebrated:) So happy new year everybody!  Hope your 2012 is amazing!
