Bringing in the new year....Wii!

At Becca's we brought in the new year with mom and dad and got a fun work out...with the Wii! First we made mom and dad's Mii...it was funny cause dad didn't want grey hair and mom couldn't decide on her body size! It was fun though...and we even made it to midnight!

Russell on TEAM USA...

err...well rode with the Cool Runnings coach with his Bobsled team made up of Marriott workers from Park City. Russ said this was an opportunity of a lifetime, it was thrilling and so amazing! Many of the workers couldn't even keep their heads up due to the G-forces but due to Russ being built like a block he could at least keep it up on his shoulders! They even made olympic time!

Maser's first HAIRCUT

I gave Mason (our neighbor's matt and jordyn's little boy) his very first haircut to rid the mullet. He did very well we just did it over a towel and with some scissors. Yay! good job Maser!

Winter Visit with Annie and Susie

So our girls made their way down to cold Utah in December. I had their christmas presents ready and we had a great time! Annie is definitely smaller than her little sister Susie but they are just so happy! We started the visit with Grandma at McD's (girls choice) because they had my little pony toys. We opened Susie's birthday gifts (from November) which she loved her pink dragon and then we were off in the snow to the movie theatre. We went to an old theatre in Murray that had almost no one in the place (but they do have kettle corn popcorn! cool!) We watched Bolt! and tried to get some pictures while the girls were in good spirit. Then off to Starbucks for some hot cocoa to top off the day before they headed to the airport...and their christmas surprises! We got both the girls many of the same gifts just maybe different theme etc. My favorite was the I am a child of God necklaces. When we put them on the girls it was like a little church movie moment when Annie read upside down "I am a child of God!" It was so cute and such a wonderful time, they are really coming around, and Emily was quite civil as well! Great visit though...next one coming in March!

Water Park!

We had a great time at the water park, Slidewaters up in Washington. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed it! It was also amazing that everyone who went enjoyed all the slides...OK....almost everyone!

Arches and Moab!

Yep we went to Arches...and then to Moab, weird it goes with the title! Anywho we left at 6 this morning for a much needed break (mainly my man) and drove down to almost perfect weather (a little windy) It was great though we did The Devil's Garden along the Primitive Loop (which means you have to pay attention to tiny rocks along the way telling you you're still on the path cause you're in desert sand and scaling huge rock formations) Then we went and ate at Zax's Pizza in Moab for lunch, YUCK, don't waste your time or money there. Overpriced and the pizza was pretty nasty! Okay then we hiked the Delicate Arch and got some really good pictures...well for being all sweaty and stuff. We are champs we hiked over 13 miles today! It was beautiful down there!

time flies...

So it's been awhile, not much new in this MacKay household though! My mom used her free flight benefits, and so did I for that matter. I got to go down and see my grandma right before she took a turn for the worse. It's fun to be able to hop on any plane and go anywhere. Wednesday we are driving though...down to Moab, we need to get some hiking in before it gets too hot down there! Some of the plans this summer are to, go to each of our homes a couple times, go to a Yankee's game in July (just because they are closing that stadium this year)(Go Red Sox!!) and hopefully to Cedar Point with Matt and Jordyn...depends on miss prego! Anyways for our anniversary we are thinking of going when winter hits to Hawaii...appreciate the warmth better then! Oh and I also put a couple pictures of my two favorite kids Cooper and Addy! I would also like to go out and see Cassi this summer too!
