Will I ever post ON TIME again??

I always say I’m going to post real time and then I never do and find myself always playing catch up. Life just gets so busy, which isn’t an excuse but man on man how do you do it!

Here are some of Noah’s birthday pictures we took and his invitation I sent out. From the pictures you can’t tell that he was being a little stinker but really he was a lot harder this year than last year… But we still managed to get some good ones. I still can't believe he's 2...














Forgotten Carols

We again went to the Forgotten Carols this year. If you haven’t gone Go to it! It is totally worth it… This year Weber State was sold out so we opted to go up to Logan, it worked out because my cousin Brittany goes to school up there and is always saying she’ll babysit Noah so I took her up on the offer. Thanks Britt! Noah had a blast and still talks about you… =) We went with my brother and sister in law, and Jess and Kip. It was lots of fun for us girls and the boys went along because it would “make us girls Happy” Really? Deep down they love it they just don’t want to admit it! Anyways it was a fun night as you can tell by Kips face… =)





Lights and Dinner

It was my grandmas birthday on Saturday and so everyone in our family went down to Temple Square to see the lights and then to eat at Siete Bello (this is seriously the best restaurant EVER). It was really cold but so much fun!! I don’t have a pic of everyone because my camera wouldn’t work when the guy was taking it, so it’s on my grandparents camera but here are some pictures from earlier that night.







There is a funny story to go with these next pictures. My little nephew Aidan (who is 6) loves to take pictures. I asked him to take ours this is the first picture he got just our legs and then he said he messed up so he took the next picture. He said it was absolutely PERFECT! So when I looked I couldn’t help but laugh because he didn’t even realize he cut off Noah’s head… I didn’t tell him, I just said “Nice Job”! He was pretty proud.










Christmas Devotional

My grandparents are missionaries at the conference center and so they had two extra tickets to the Christmas devotional this year. I snatched them up and me, Kyle, Chazel and John went down. It was lots of fun, I’ve been a couple times before and every time it is such a good reminder of what Christmas is all about. I love our Prophet and leaders of the church they always have such a good and meaningful messages and every time President Monson talks the spirit testifies to me that he is a prophet of God and this church is true. I am so thankful for this time of year, for the yummy food, the gift exchanging, Christmas cards, shopping, family time and traditions but most of all for the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. I forever grateful for all he has done and continues to do for me. As I was reading the Sullengers blog the other day she posted this amazing video that is what Christmas is all about. I loved it and I hope you do too. Enjoy!

For family night the other night we decorated our Christmas tree… We had so much FUN! I remember growing up when my mom would always suggest where to put the ornaments and even sometimes without us seeing (except sometimes I would catch her) would rearrange it because we had about 10 ornaments on the same branch. As Noah was helping I found myself doing the same thing, and now understand why mom did that. =) He loved every second of the decorating, he even has his own little tree that he can redecorate in his room which he already has done numerous times. I of course have a little nativity and as I got it out and we set it up the one thing I found so cute and interesting is Noah sat for over an hour playing with the nativity, he LOVED it. I explained who everyone was and sure enough I would over hear Noah saying “baby Jesus, and mommy and daddy” He then goes through and names every animal. He was in HEAVEN! I thought that would last just that night but nope every morning the first thing is says is “Umm… mommy, I play with baby Jesus, mommy, daddy and the barn?” (really he puts Ummm in front of everything now days).

Here’s some pics from family night…
