Christmas

Christmas was a blast. I love Christmas!

We made gingerbread houses with Zach and Emmie.





We went to Temple Square to see the lights.




I was able to see the David Archuleta Christmas concert with Justin's mom and sisters.


We decorated our Christmas tree.



We pulled the kids on tubes and sleds behind the four wheeler.



I bought Justin a new Beach Cruiser bike for Christmas.




Justin was able to take his brother to his first Jazz game.


We went to my family's Christmas Party in Idaho, Justin plays Santa every year.




It was the best time. Christmas is always so busy but I love all of the hustle and bustle... Call me Crazy!

Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at Justin's Mom's house this year. Here are our family pictures...

Halloween

We finally dressed up for Halloween this year. We went with our friends Emmie and Zach to our ward Halloween party and then went out to dinner. We decided to dress up as the Scooby Doo Gang...


A few days later we all carved some pumpkins...

Trip to Arizona

Mid October we went to Tucson, Arizona to visit my family. My mom and my sister live really close to eachother so we were able to spend alot of time all together. While we were there we hung out with my neice Tana that we do not get to see very often. I can't believe how fast she is growing and I love her sassy personality. She loves fashion and she loves jewelry.


We hung out at my sister's pool alot and then on our last day there we decided to visit the Biosphere 2. It is a building where scientists and NASA have tried to recreate the earth's ecological system. The Biosphere has all different elements from the rain forest to the desert. They had several scientists locked in the building for 2 years to see if they could survive. It worked out pretty well but they ultimately could not use the biosphere for the purpose they wanted. NASA hoped to put a biosphere on another planet but the biosphere was overran with insects. So now the biosphere is part of the University of Arizona for students to use. It was really cool to visit because you are able to see things like the ocean and the rainforest in a building.



Neice and Nephew sleepover

In October Justin and I had the our neices and nephews over for a sleepover and we thought it would be fun if we made a huge blanket tent in the living room and watch movies. It was a huge mess but we had a ton of fun! The kids stayed up so late watching movies, I thought they would fall asleep pretty quickly but I was so wrong. At 1:ooam I finally shut off the movie and we went to bed.

Love this pic...

Late September we had Justin's family over and Justin's mom fell asleep on the couch watching cartoons and all of the kids ended up sitting wherever they could fit on the couch and tried not to wake grandma. So Funny!
