It was the second annual Bunderson St. George reunion!! Well...kind of. Heidi, Weston, and girls, Grandma Cindy, Grandpa Danny, Sarah, Kelly, Grandma & Grandpa Taylor were the only ones that could make it this week. Buddy, Jen, Tay, Jared, & Wendy are all coming next week. Yeahh!!! Everyone is desperately seeking sunshine after the winter they have had. I posted a ton of pictures and I don't want to label all of them, so here are a few highlights from our week.
* Grandpa Danny won $400 on the nickel slots in Mesquite. Go Grandpa!!
* The girls had a "quick" shopping spree to the outlet mall. We all got great deals.
* Jordyn got sick the first night she was here and had to go to instacare. I don't think that was a highlight, but it did happen....poor thing.
* The kids had a great time in the swimming pool at the condo. They are all getting so brave with the water. That is a good thing considering half of the family is afraid of water or can't swim.
* The whole crew went to Blue Bunny Ice Cream Shop. It is such a fun place. My dad tried everyones ice cream. It reminded me of Grandma Reva.
* Weston fixed our cable!!! Wooohoo!! and he fixed our grill!!
* Weston's steak bits wrapped in bacon, hmmmm....they were so tasty!!
* Ryan's dutch oven potatoes!!
* Peyton was excited because both of the grandparents pitched in to his "Boise State Football Camp Fund"
* Jack attached himself to Kelly and Sarah, and has not stopped talking about them since. He calls Kelly the "scary monster" and thinks that he is so cool because he lifts him up to the BIG basketball hoop.
* We watched August Rush for the third or fourth time. We love that show!!
* Allie and Jack bonded. They were our night owls and were crazy!
* I introduced to my family to my St. George friends. They could not believe that my parents were that young. They kept saying that they didn't look old enough to be my parents. That was a compliment to them...I think.
* Allie got a new pair of Roxy flip flops!! She would not take them off the entire time she was here. Heidi was a bit worried about getting her to switch when she got back to the cold weather.
* Jordyn was hilarious as always. The kids keep repeating a line that she said while she was here. She had a pop-tart tatoo on her arm the entire week that would not wash off. So one day she said, "I still got my tatoo!" Doesn't sound funny, but she talks in a southern drawl (not sure where that came from) so when she says it, it is funny.
* Heidi got a new tatoo of James Dean on her upper thigh. Hee hee just kidding...just had to throw that one in there!!
I am sure there was a lot more that happened. We all had a great time!! Can't wait until summer to party again!!

Visitors!! Finally!!
Basketball "Stooper STAR!!"
This was Peyton's first year of playing basketball. He is quite the ball handler. We were very impressed with his skills. He practiced everyday, and even had me start getting him up before school to practice his shot. I think that he has enjoyed this sport the most out of all that he has played. I titled this blog entry basketball stooper star because that is what Jack calls Peyton. After every game he would say, "Peyton is the BIG Stooper Star and I am the little Stooper Star. He couldn't say superstar for some reason. Sometimes it even sounded like he was saying stupid star, and Peyton didn't like that very much. There were a few tears shed by Ryan and Chris when the season ended. I think they enjoyed going to the games and yelling the ENTIRE game. It was good yelling, but sometimes I had to tell them to calm down. They both get so excited!! We all enjoyed this season, and can't wait for next year.
I don't have a picture of the entire team, but the picture above is of Peyton's buddies from the neighborhood; Cole Johnson and Maysen Fielding. I think they were trying to look tough for this shot.

Grandpa Danny!!
Jack named the snowman Grandpa Danny because of the big nose!! No just kidding!! He loved the snowman so much he had to give it a big hug before he came in. Grandpa's nose isn't that big!!
Snow In ST GEORGE!!!
It started snowing during the superbowl today. The kids were so excited. I dug out all of our old snow gear and we went out to build a snowman. The kids thought that the jazz flag was the perfect way to finish it. Jack had so much fun. He hasn't really ever played in the snow. He didn't want to come in, but his cheeks were so red and he got cold. Peyton was a little bummed that he couldn't practice basketball. He plays everyday!!

A LOT ABOUT ME!!
I've been tagged by Heidi Leigh Crane
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people, and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged, and asking them to read your blog.
10 years ago: I was 19 years old. I was madly in love with Ryan, and we were engaged on Valentines Day. I weighed a whole lot less, I didn't have as many wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, and my boobs and butt were positioned where they are supposed to be.
5 things on my todo list today: Drag myself out of bed, get the kids ready for the day, Young Women's Presidency meeting, Clean the kitchen, Do Laundry.
Things I would do if I were suddenly made a billionaire: Hmmmm...good question. Well, to start off I would pay all of our debt off and purchase our dream home. I would put some aside for my children to attend college. I would enter Ryan in the World Championship Poker Tournament (that would really make his day!!). I would go to Disney World!! I have never been!! I would send a check to my dad and mom for all of the times they paid my car payment in High School (hee hee just kidding...they are full of it). I would take my entire family on a vacation to wherever...somewhere warm. I would start my own business. I don't know what kind, but I would do it.
3 of my bad habits: I am addicted to caffeinated beverages. I HATE it!! But really I love it and that is why I cannot stop. I am a constant worrier. I have anxiety so bad, and when it hits I can't think of anything else but the thing that is worrying me....does that sentence even make sense??? who knows. Oh great now I will start worrying about that (jk it's not that bad). I love to pick at anything and everything. I can't wait until Peyton gets zits so I can pick em.
5 Places I have lived: Rigby, My first apartment in Logan, Ryan's grandpa Bertoch's house in Logan, Our cute, little, perfect, brick home in Logan that I miss SO much, and St. George!!
5 Jobs I have had: Bundy's Drive-In, Fiesta Ole, Discovery Research Group, Project Manager at Information Alliance, The World's Greatest Mother!! (funny!!)
Things most people don't know about me...
That is a hard one. I am an open book. I tell everyone everything, and I believe it is down right annoying sometimes. I will try...
I have a really had time sharing my emotions. I can cry in private, but I hate to cry when anyone is watching. I don't like to show my vulnerability (spelling?) And not only that I feel like my whole face distorts when I cry and it is not a pretty site.
I love doing my make-up. I am not very "girly" but I can spend a good 30-40 minutes just on my make-up when I have time to do so. I love to curl my eyelashes and apply the mascara.
I love to sing and dance!! Anytime there is music on I have to sing and dance regardless if I look or sound good.
I love to bake. I am not a good cook, but I THINK I am okay at baking. I love baking cookies, cakes, apple crisp, etc.
I cannot go a day without talking to my sister. It is crazy, but I have to. I should have put that on my to do list.
I love to read. If the book gets me hooked I can finish it in a flash.
I can't just sit and watch a television show. I always have a few shows that I am watching and switch them back and forth when there are commercials. It is very annoying.
I would love to be a school teacher. In fact if I went back to school I would probably go for a teaching degree.
Although I hate housecleaning, I am a very organized person at SOME things. I have both of my boys scrapbooks updated. I have always documented their accomplishments, funny sayings, favorites, friends, etc. for each year.
I am so excited to be having another boy!! Really I am!
Okay...man I really went overboard. That was kind of fun. I told you I was an open book!!
I TAG...
Aimee (I think you have already done this, but oh well)
Angie
Jared or Wendy

BOY News!!
It's official!! We will be having another boy in June. Peyton was really hoping that it would be a girl, but he is okay with another brother. Jack is just excited about having a baby. He said he is going to feed it bottles and change diapers. We will see.... I am okay with another boy. I had a feeling that I would have another. I think Ryan was a little dissapointed. He probably doesn't want to have another so he was hoping this one was a girl. Oh well.. now we have to come up with a name. We have no idea.
