Snow Bunnies

We've headed to Utah for Christmas and right now we are at our timeshare in Park City. From the looks out our window it's going to be a White Christmas. It hasn't stopped snowing since we got here and the kids are having a ton of fun in the snow. They only last 45 minutes or so until one of them says there cold!:) We were going to put Saylor in ski school, but it's too cold and she probably wouldn't last very long, so we'll try when we go back in the spring. While daddy's been snowboarding everyday the kids & I seem to do the same thing, play in the snow, hot tub, lunch and nap. Why is it that vacationing always makes you tired :) I know the kids can't wait for Christmas, but mommy might be a little more excited to see there cute little faces christmas morning! Everytime Sawyer sees Santa he says "be good boy" and if you ask Saylor what she wants, the list never changes:

................Cinderella, Belle, Barbie, Tangled...............

The snow definitely makes it feel a lot more like Christmas, but I will say it's fun to see and play in but I don't know if I could do it 4 months! :) Merry Christmas!

Snack Time

Somebody decided to help themselves to a snack after nap time.

"ut-oh mommy I make messes"

i think I'm finally done trimmin the tree. After getting our Charlie Brown tree out of the box this year, I had enough of looking at that dinky small thing for the past 5 years so I bought a new one on black friday. Totally worth every penny!!

Messy but Fun

Daddy went to the Magic game last night, so we had FHE tonight and made our gingerbread house. Kids had a ton of fun, but did more eating then decorating! :) Here's it is! Ta-Dah!

Saylor said it needed a kiss because it was "cute"

Can't Sleep so I'll blog....

Up and can't sleep so what better thing to do then blog. Here's a few pictures that are feeling lonely and need some recognition :) Here's a few of our latest adventures. warning: some pictures might make you squirmy:)

The officially opening of "Elf on the Shelf"

Saylor quickly gave our "elf" the name Andy. I think because his skinny flimsy legs and arms remind her of Andy from Toy Story:)

Kortney and Christopher came in town for Thanksgiving and we headed to the beach! Had a blast!! This was the only picture I could find on my camera, pathetic! I'm kortney has some gems on her camera!

Saylor's acapella performance :)

We took a trip to DC to see Kortney's last volleyball game of her college career!! It was a bittersweet moment. She is amazing!

Only a few hours after flying into D.C. we ended up in the ER! Saylor smashed her little finger in the hotel door. They took the finger nail off and had to put two stitches on each side and one in the nail bed. She was soo brave, but mommy was a hysterical wreck! The cute little finger is much better and she's always telling me, " don't worry mommy the doctor said my finger nail will come back"

Hoya's #1 fan!

DC was so much fun and words can't describe how proud of my sister I am!!! I love you sis!
