What's On My Happy List?

More Randomness from our house this past week......

Awe. Coach Edwards dy'ing.

Sad.

You are not a true Murray-ite without experiencing a pizza bender from the

infamous Murray dive...Italian Village.

When Uncle Ryan is in town it's an extended family tra-dish to eat a bender....

along with their salad with Roquefort dressing.

My gosh.

Flipp'in good.

So guess who got to mentor Kyleigh at work?
Emma
For three days they got to work together.
hilarious!

Had B. Olivia in for allergy testing. BLAH!

We went to my Sister in Law's 50th birthday celebration..

After a temple session with a friend,

Kyleigh was finally home long enough to take an afternoon nap...

imagine that..

haha

attending a friend's wedding reception...

The hubs went shooting with a nephew...

So grateful Kate and B have each other to play with.

They enjoyed playing Barbies, the Wii, and "James Bond" over the break.

They downright nerf gun it and rough wrestle each other.

We have a standing dinner date with these friends the week after Christmas every year.
We've always gone to Texas Roadhouse.
We branched out this year.

Hannie had a date for breakfast...

She also got to be the photographer for her guys friends and their photoshoot up in the canyon.
Too funny!

The girls had a sleepover with cousins...
Kyleigh introduced them to her Korean restaurant and
to Bing Su...

I must try this Bing su.
{apparently it's really good}

So on New Years Eve Day we had a little family gathering honoring my dad.
My dad and my g-pa were "extras" in a movie, "The Run of the Arrow," that was filmed in St. George in 1956.
On Christmas Day my brother's family gave my dad the cutest gift....inviting him to a showing of THIS movie.

The man of the hour arriving on the red carpet...ready to sign autographs..hehe

We ate yummy soup together and then watched the movie...

My dad said he made $15 a day being an "extra" ...which back then was good money.

He made more in the month working on the movie than he did at his job at Kennecott.

My dad playing dead...

my dad is in the middle in the back with my grandpa {my mom's dad} ...

More laughs from Telestrations!

New Years Eve night...Kyleigh was off with friends for sushi and a party .....

Hannie was at a friend party too......

um... don't ask... haha

a group of them were out on a midnight walk banging pots and pans..

Man, I don't know what it is about the whole New Year thing, but I am not a fan.
{at all}
We had already had our extended family gathering earlier in the day so the rest of us {minus Ky and Hannah} just had a quiet night at home...

girls put on clay masks

so tight they could barley move their faces..

We did manage to stay up to watch the New Year come in and celebrate with bubbly...

Church is now at 1:00! We have no 11:00 option.
It's either 9 or 1!...{I will refrain from commenting.}
Kyleigh met a missionary from the Netherlands who is serving in our area...he knows Sister Markus {also from the Netherlands} who Kyleigh was with in Korea.

Small world.

We had a Mexican Feast of tamales and flautas and fix'ins for New Year's Day dinner...

Celebrating New Years on Monday at one of our favorite places...
Pizzeria Limone

The Pera and the Caprese are my two fav's...

Actually NOTHING beats their Divino dessert pizza.

Seriously one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth.

Brie's 6th grade class has auditions coming up for the Shakespeare plays that are held the end of Feb.
Emma and Hannah on a whim, busted in on Brie while she was doing her hair in the bathroom, and surprised her by reciting Shakespeare lines dressed as Oberon and Titania from A Midsummer Night's Dream. What the heck?

Some reading under the Christmas tree

and do'in Legos with Kate...

Kate gave me this Lego set for Christmas...
We enjoy playing the Guess Who board game together and this is the Guess Who Lego set!
Get out!
So stink'in cute!
