10th Anniversary

It's been 10 years!!! Dallin and I were married on December 18, 1999 in the Mesa, AZ temple. We went to San Antonio to celebrate while our awesome friends, the Benoits, took all 4 kids. It was even their own anniversary on the 19th, and they still had our kids for most of the day. We left Friday at lunchtime and checked into our hotel. We then went to the movies, out to dinner and then on a Riverwalk boat cruise. It was so pretty with all the Christmas lights and decorations.

This is the Rivercenter Mall that surrounds one end of the Riverwalk...

In the morning we slept in and then went to a session at the San Antonio Temple. It was a relaxing trip and a great time.

Johnson Family said...: Everyone seems to have a December anniversary! I just figured out that it is probably because that is when college classes are on break. Crazy huh? Ours is in December too. It looks like a wonderful anniversary for the two of you and what a better place to spend it than in the Temple.
have a wonderful holiday season!; December 20, 2009 at 9:07 PM

Lauree's Daily Thoughts

8/28/13 Connor has worn the same size underwear for the last 3 1/2 years. He finally moved up to the next size this week. It's still a little loose, but it's progress.
8/22/13 The kids met their teachers tonight! They all seem happy with their teachers and we hope it will be a great year!
8/21/13 I took the kids to Texas Jumping Beans this morning and we met up with a bunch of friends. The kids had a GREAT time and their socks were so nasty that I ended up throwing them all away after attempting to wash them.
8/19/13 I took Landon for his 3-year-old check-up and he screamed his head off when they tried to weigh and measure him. He was totally fine when the doctor came in and checked him all out, but for some reason he is terrified of the scale. Then I took Jacob to pick up his schedule and books for 7th grade. He's happy to have a technology class this year, and choir again.
8/17/13 Jacob got to go on a youth temple trip again and had a great time. I'm so thankful he has good kids to hang out with, doing good things.
8/8/13 I got to go to the temple in San Antonio with a couple of friends this morning. It was nice to have that peaceful break during the summer, and I had a great time chatting with Allison & Elizabeth on the ride there and back!
8/2/13 Just got back from a trip to my brother's house in Odessa. We had a fun time visiting with Steven, Sarah, Max & Madelyn! We also got to see my mom for a day since she came for a visit as well.

Kid Moments

7/14 I can't remember why, but we were talking about how baby sharks start out as an egg (I know...don't you wish you could listen in to all of our dinner conversations?) Connor says very matter-of-fact "A shark's egg's sac is also known as a mermaid's purse!"
6/14 We were talking about a girl we know who just donated her hair to Wigs for Kids. I told Connor it was for kids who had cancer and had lost their hair. He immediately replied "Or with kids who have alopecia areata." Apparently he learned about alopecia areata at career day and remembered every detail.
6/14 One day while we were eating Zach said randomly "If cannibals ate French people you could call it a French "fry."
2/28/14 (We have watched a LOT of the movie "Wall-E" over the last few weeks.) Landon: I wanna watch Wall-E the lobot. Lauree: No, not today. Landon: You stick a Wall-E the lobot Mommy? (stick = sick)
