PARTAY!!

We hosted a little Christmas Party at our house with our neighbors/friends. I truly love where I live and the people that live here. We truly all get along, no judging and no DRAMA!! What more could you ask for?

TEMPLE SQUARE!!

We headed down to Temple Square only to find out it was the night of David Archulleta's (however you spell his name, I guess I am not obsessed like other woman are) concert. So there was NO parking anywhere. So after parking 2 miles away we were able to get in and see all the beautiful lights. There really wasn't that many people there because I think they were all in the concert. After about 10 mins Quinn's ready to leave but it's always a fun tradition even though it's the biggest pain EVER!!

How beautiful is that?

Yes Peyton's still our baby and we let her ride in a stroller!!

Caleb had to get his picture by the blue tree!!

Our family in front of the temple, well half of Peyton's face!!

SHAKE IT!!

Peyton had another successful Dance recital, its fun to watch her improve each year and how beautiful she looks up there.

All dolled up ready to go

Not the best pictures but you can tell she is shakin it!!

Grandma and Grandpa B came, Grandma wouldn't get in the picture because she said she looked horrible that day. And other Grandma B stayed an extra day to come watch her. Not sure how we didn't get a picture of them!!

Daddy and his girl

She got roses on her first Dance recital and she reminds Quinn all the time before her recital that he needs to make sure he gets her some roses and she is even getting picky that they have to be roses and pink!! What are we raising here?

Our little family

My attempt at getting a cute, loving sibling picture

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!!

Caleb and Peyton with the Jolly old man

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.

Caleb and Peyton

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!!

Daddy and his kiddos

Just love them

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