Kjar Family Christmas

This weekend we had a really fun weekend. My mom and dad were nice enough, (since we are not going to be all together for Christmas this year) to buy all of us hotel rooms at the Marriott in Salt Lake. We headed up to Tooele on Friday night when Landon got home from work about 7. We hit a snowstorm by Fillmore and didn't know if we were going to be able to make it, but by Nephi it stopped snowing and we made to Tooele about 12:30. Then on Saturday we got up and got ready to head to Salt Lake. Then my mom and dad, Cashelle and AJ and Landon and I met up with Chris and Amanda at the Gateway. We ate lunch there and then we went to Build a Bear Workshop and I made a cute little teddy bear for Jayleigh. Madalynn and Audrey also got to make them Hannah Montana bears and they were VERY excited! After we were done there we headed to our hotel and got checked in. We went up to our room and I took about an hour nap while Landon went and checked out the hotel. We then all bundled up and headed out to go to Temple Square to look at all the beautiful lights and the Temple. Thomas was begging to ride the choo-choo (Trax) and so we decided to take a little ride. If you want some enjoyment, you should have seen all of us trying to get on and off Trax. When we got there everybody had gotten on while my mom, AJ and myself were last, and AJ was trying to get on there 2 person stroller. While we were watching AJ try to get the stroller in we heard this beeping noise. Well my mom and I had never been on Trax before so we asked "What's that noise?" AJ responds "Oh that means that doors are going to close." You should have seen my moms face and mine probably. We pushed AJ out of the way so that we could get on because were terrified that we were going to get left on the sidewalk or smashed in the doors. I'm sure you had to be there for it to be funny but it was hilarious. The people already on there were probably thinking that we were nuts!!! So we made it to Temple Square and it was beautiful. I have not been there for a very long time and it was so much fun to be able to go back. After we went and looked at the lights we went back to the hotel room, had pizza delivered and then we went swimming. We had so much fun and I am so sad that it is over but I just want to tell my mom and dad THANK YOU for everything!! It was so good to be able to be with the whole family and we will need to do it again! Here are a few of the pictures that I took of this adventure.

Just an update

Well I had to go to the doctor just for one of my checkups, and the doctor thought that I was measuring a little big so he had me go have an ultrasound today. Well everything is fine and I am just measuring a tiny bit bigger and so there is nothing to worry about. The doctor called me after my ultrasound and let me know that everything is good and that she is the 42nd percentile for her height and everything. He said my fluid looks like the reason that I am measuring a little big. Anyway while we were at the appointment they printed off these awesome 3-D pictures and I just wanted to share them with everybody. You can see her face really well and I think that she looks like she is pretty stinkin' cute but you can be the judge for yourself.

Count your blessings

I found this quote by John Bytheway that I really like and it is so true!!! I just thought that I would post it for you all to enjoy. "Lots of people complain. Most people complain about their problems, but miserable people are different- they complain about their blessings. If their car breaks down, they complain that it isn't new. If their waitress is slow, they complain and withhold a tip. If their cell phone drops a call, they complain about their service. They're like the people in the Old Testament who got free food from heaven and said, "What? Manna again?" By contrast, happy people are grateful to have a car, thankful they can afford to eat at a restaurant, and stoked that they have a cell phone. Most people in the world don't have cars, can't afford restaurants, and have never sent a text message. Happy people count their blessings, while miserable complain about theirs." --John Bytheway

Jayleigh's Room

Well this weekend we received the stuff that we ordered from Twelve Timbers. It turned out so cute and we would like to thank Logan for getting them for us. I just wanted to show some pictures of her room cause I LOVE IT!! Here are the pictures and I hope that you think that it turned out as cute as we do!

Here is the cute crib that Landon's mom bought us. We love the crib, thank you so much!

Thanksgiving Weekend

Well we had a wonderful Thanksgiving and we hope that everybody else had a good one too. We went up to Manti for Thanksgiving and had Thanksgiving dinner at my Grandma Duncan's. There was tons of people of there and it was a lot of fun and it was SO good to see everyone. On Friday Landon, my mom, Amanda, and I went shopping. We left Manti at 2:30 am and had so much fun!! Later that afternoon my mom, Amanda, and my sister threw me a great baby shower. I want to thank everybody for coming to that and I appreciate everything so much! On Saturday we had a Duncan family Christmas party. Even my dad got to sit on Santa's lap! Landon went out to the sand dunes with his family and a really fun time! Well here are a couple of highlights from the past weekend. Hope everybody else had as much fun as we did!!!

Here is Chris and Cody!
