ANOTHER SANTA VISIT!!

Quinn's parents invited the kids up to their ward to come to their Christmas Party. After a good visit from Mr. and Mrs. Clause and some good food we were off!!

It's so much better when your kid is not scared of him!!

Caleb is missing 3 front teeth right now so he has a lovely big gap so Santa was teasing him saying "All I want for Christmas is my 3 front teeth"

CHRISTMAS PROGRAM

Caleb had a 2nd grade Christmas program at School. He is not the type to sing and he did so good with all the songs. I went earlier that day when they were practicing to try and get better pictures but my camera was being dumb so still not the best pictures. He did so good with one of the songs that was all sign language I made him come home and do it for me.

LIGHTS!!

Last Sunday we hopped in the car with our hot chocolate in tow and drove around and looked at the pretty Christmas lights. We ended up going to this amazing house in Murray and then Quinn suggested we go to Christmas Street. I used to go there a ton when I was little but haven't been for 10+ years, so it was good to start a tradition with our kids.

Don't mind P's outfit she was already in her jammies and did not want to change!!

SANTA BABY!!

On Friday night we headed to Tuacahn to go see Santa. Peyton was BEHIND excited this year compared to last year when she bawled the whole time and Quinn ended up putting her on the "naughty list" They were both excited to tell Santa everything they wanted and then we walked around and enjoyed the beautiful lights and even more beautiful surroundings.

Meeting the Jolly Old Man

She even ran up to him and hugged him when he was coming out

Daddy and his Princess

They even set up a little swing that lasted for 5 min literally and I think by the time Caleb got off he was going to puke!!

Just love them

This picture just doesn't do it justice it is so pretty there!!

THANKSGIVING!!

We headed down to sunny St. George for Thanksgiving this year. We had a fun filled weekend of good food, great company, shopping, Bingo game and lots of laughing. My Uncle Mike, Cousin Crystal and her husband Rory joined us this year as well.We headed out on Black Friday with the other billion people but didn't go until much later in the day so not to many deals left but still had fun!! Headed to Tuachan to see Santa and rode dirt bikes a lot!! Quinn and I even snuck in a date night, when you have that many free babysitters you better believe we were taking advantage of that!!

I am so thankful for this time of the year before the hustle and bustle of Christmas to reflect on ALL the blessings we really do have:

I have a GREAT husband and kids, amazing parents, siblings, in-laws, cousins, uncle and aunts, friends, food on the table at all times, a roof over my head, a car, jobs, clothes, heat and A&C, water, electricity and much much more!! There really isn't much to complain about huh?

Before Thanksgiving we headed out to our annual Turkey Bowl. Great times, great hits, crashes, slides and all in the name of fun!!

Getting ready to whoop on them!!

Look at their determination on their faces to try and win, but to bad it didn't happen!!

Rory the "monster" plowing his way through us little folks

THANKSGIVING DINNER

Sadly this is the only picture I got of Thanksgiving Day

PEYTON'S DARE

My Mom and I left to go get the gifts for the bingo game and I get a text from my uncle telling me to control my child. I thought it was her eating pie with no utensils so I laughed and showed my Mom and she was like "that's not pie, that's butter!!" So this is what happens when the Mom leaves the house for 30 mins? My Uncle Mike,Crystal and her husband thought they would dare her to eat it and she did!! She did score $5.00 off of Rory though, she was so proud of herself after.

Just beginning her lovely dare, at least they held her hair back for her:)

Look at her go!!

They dared Caleb but he's not as "smart" as her and he said NO!!

She's loving it

The butter after Peyton getting a hold of it!!

GO COUGS!!

We headed down to a BYU game a couple of weeks ago. Peyton has been begging to go so we went until half time and then headed to Brick Oven Pizza, it was a fun night for all!!

Mom and her buddy

Such a cutie

DISNEY ON ICE!!

Princess's-check, 5 happy girls-check, one fun day-check.

My neighbor works for channel 2 news and his wife was going to be out of town while it was here. So he came up with the brilliant idea if I would take his girls he would give me 6 tickets. So I of course called up Laurie and told her to come with us as well. It was a really fun day and those girls did not move an inch the ENTIRE show!!

I am so mad, I accidentally left my camera in the car so I could only take pictures with the crappy phone camera.

This was how this girl was the whole show

All the Princess's coming out in the end

Rapunzel and Flynn

This lovely picture with the girls

Once we got home I was able to take a picture with the camera
