Welcome 2013!

These pictures are all out of order but it's all about the holidays! We had a great Christmas and New Years, complete with Johnson family visiting, DeRusha traditions and watching Jeter celebrate his third Christmas! One down was Jeter was sick and than I caught it-and this was no ordinary 24 hr we have been sick since and are just coming around. Good thing we've able to lounge around without any obligations to see to!

My dad made Brown Bread, it's a real treat around here yummy!

 Christmas Pj's!

 The bouncy horse!

This was taken after new years but Jeter loves to connect things, here is the "helicopter fire truck"

 Out Shooting

 Kameron's big present this year was a new set of suits! Sadly I was too sick to go to church but he looked handsome!!!!

 Another random..Jeter's train being shared with Lou Lou

 We weren't able to see Cade and Caryn but we were sure excited for their gifts! I got the Annie Sloan work book! Awesome!!!

 Batting practice with Grandpa Russ!

This entire holiday season has been so fun! It always seems to go by so fast but I am ready to start new and see what this new year will bring!

DIY Pin Project December

 Okay! So December is flying by so I found a pin for fudge. Easy Fudge it said. Well I know I am not a real baker (I have a hard time following directions) So I thought I would try it out.

Well for those of you who don't know boiling sugar is an art. Not for the faint of heart. I did the best I could but in the end...FAIL! I know these would turn out yummy if the right person can make them, but that person is not me hence the disaster. But it was worth a shot!

 But for the last Pin of the year I can't go out like that! So here is a homemade Pizza and I am kind of cheating because it was Kameron's idea, and Kam's recipe but it was so yummy! And I helped knead it :)

 Delicious!

It has been fun recording a pin project each month for this Entire Year! I love being creative and trying new things! Can't wait for all the fun things 2013 will bring!

Holiday Festivites

We love Cars! Cars Pj's, Lightening McQueen Car toy and watching Cars the movie all at the Same Time!

 Kameron was trying to peacefully work on a project and he had three little helpers, Jeter, Max and Killian. Fun!!

 The boys!

 My dad is an awesome musician! Here he is playing his fiddle; we give him a lot of grief but when the day is done I love this guy and all the Culture he has given me and helping mold the person I am today.

 This year we decided to do ginger Bread Houses! The little boys ate all the candy while the adults attempted to build the houses...

 A masterpiece!!

 Emily and Trent had "The Village" they did a good job building all those little houses!

 Sadly I never got a picture of Brianna's because she had a two year old helping her and the rest is history!
So this past weekend we did a little Furniture Boutique in Thatcher! Who would have known this would be the weekend of drizzly rain and the coldest weather yet! But we did well and got to meet a lot of fun people and share some awesome furniture with them!

 It's a dark picture but Killian and Jeter have a lot of play time together and we are starting to notice a height difference..

 Christmas Tree!

Merry Christmas!

Thanksgiving in Utah

Yay for Brisk, Early Morning walks with the two little boys! I love these two boys they sure do make things very interesting!

For Thanksgiving we went to Utah to see Kameron's family, we had a great time!! Rode horse, met some cousins, went for a hike, and just had so much fun being there with Family!

 Utah in the Fall is so beautiful! Jeter loved playing in the leaves, we would pile them all up around him and he made into a peek-a-boo game!

 While we were there I wanted to look for some furniture, so since I have the most awesomest husband Ever! I was able to get some great deals! Kameron found some garage sales the night before and drove me all around St. George area pulling the trailer that we bought a few weeks ago!

 We went for a hike outside of Mesquite to some Johnson Family History cliffs I guess you could call it. Other cousins were there and it was just fun to be outside working off all the Thanksgiving food!

 Sitting in the cliff holes.

 Jeter also got to play with the Chickens and Horses!

 Following Sam into the field outside Grandma Johnson's house.

 

Jeter did so well on the 8+8 car ride! We stayed over in Flagstaff on the way there and on our way home stopped in for Sacrament meeting and got to see some friends of our old ward there!

November is also Kameron's Birthday! He took a trip to Minnesota a few weeks back so that was his big gift so we had a yummy steak dinner and got to celebrate this awesome guy!!

Here are some pictures of our event at West World!

 A helper helping this picture to look more awesome!

Last but not least some random bugs that have been helping me with projects...
