Thanksgiving 2014

This year I planned Thanksgiving for the Jensen and Funk sides of the family.  It was a HUGE family gathering and we all had so much fun!  Thanks to Jaime who let us use her shop, we were able to have everyone together.  Everyone brought food, and we made it a huge family feast.  It was so great to get together with everyone! 

JoAnna Graduates!

May 22, 2014

JoAnna is all done with High school!!  We couldn't be more proud of her.  Valedictorian and even took a selfie during her speech- she's one of a kind :)




We have somewhat of a goofy family... but we love them all!





JoAnna spending one of her last days as a senior at our house.  Everyone loves Aunt JoAnna!







Me and one of my BFF's Lori Page.  I love this lady to death!  She's so much like me... talented, beautiful, funny, and just all around awesome ;)  Love you Lori!

JoAnna's last Prom

April 23, 2014

JoAnna's Sr Prom- The last sibling prom we'll attend!  Josh is all moved here from Florida, and Jon is home from college till Fall, so all we're missing is Jason in Texas!

Bunny Bashin'

Uncle Jon introduced my kids early to the sport of bunny bashin'.  I probably should be mortified at how much they both enjoyed it, but instead I'm happy that they like the simple things in life -Riding in a bumpy, dusty truck with Dad and Uncle Jon, while trying to spot rabbits.  Could there be anything better?

Jensen Family Pictures

Jaime Williams Photography took our family pictures this year.  She did such a great job!



This is one of my favorite pictures!  Love these parents of mine! They are so good to us.

Cash's Blessing Day

Yesterday we blessed Cash.  It was quite the group of family we had.  I sure love being close to family!  

 Our family of FIVE!  {Wow- that's new} 

 THIS GIRL LOVES her new little brother!  She is such a great helper!  Always the first to come to his rescue when he's crying.

 With Grandpa Funk

 Grandma loves all her Grandbabies... but she especially loves them when they're this small ;)

Stewart gave Cash a very nice blessing.  (He didn't even change his name- according to Uncle Spencer Stewart has the final say in what we name our kids) ;)

Grandpa Jensen and Brogan are pretty good buddies.  I think Cash was initiated as a "good buddy member" today ;)

Uncle Jon

Uncle Jon came home from his mission in November.  Since then he's spent a lot of time hanging out with us (Jason is staying at my mom's for two weeks for Christmas, so Jon is staying in our guest room)

Jon has been deemed "Baby whisperer".  He is so good with little Cash!

 He's also very good with the other two crazies! We love him so much!  He's headed to BYU-I at the end of this week and we are going to miss him tons!

Christmas 2013

Having a baby at Christmas time is a wonderful thing.  It is also a very stressful thing  (Especially when you have extra doctor appointments to schedule and get to quickly).  I was pretty pre-Christmas prepared (all my decorations were up at the end of November...) but it was still a task to get all the things done I'd wanted to.  At one point I was feeling overwhelmingly stressed out and found myself screaming at everyone about everything.  I soon realized that in my attempt to try and keep things clean, plan a perfect party, and squeeze in all the little things I was sucking the fun out of everything.  SO I decided to just be chill.  I literally just gave up on caring about anything I would normally care huge heaps about.  (Stewart was a little leery to actually have people over without first helping me create "fake house") (even though to his credit he did keep trying to keep things together) ;)  

Christmas day was the first "real" day we did nothing but stay home and veg.  It was wonderful!  I held Cash all day- watched my kids play all day- let the mess go all day- sat around in my jammies all day- and just enjoyed it.  It was truly a Christmas to remember! 

 Here is our "Mom Tree" Christmas Tree.  I love getting a real tree.  This year we didn't make it to the mountains (due any day with a baby... not this year).  But we did go to Moody's here in town. 

 Here's a little view of our Christmas decor.  I think it feels magical with only the Christmas lights on.

Christmas morning after Santa came!  

 Love these boys! 

 Addison loves them too! 

 Christmas day was a candy free for all (Santa even left candy canes on the tree!)

Santa also left an orange in everyone's stocking (which the kids gladly ate first).  So glad Santa wants them to be somewhat healthy ;)

 Me and sweet baby Cash

 Brogan got a sweet castle tent from Grandma Jensen.  Uncle Jon was a good sport and got in.  (...so did Jaime when she stopped by) :) 

 The Jensen grandparents, the Bingham grandparents and Spencer all came by to bring us presents, see what the kids got for Christmas, and say hello.  (It was nice of them to come to us!  We loved seeing them on Christmas day!

 Grandma Jensen getting some Cash loves!
