Christmas Morning

I didn't get too many shot Christmas morning when everyone was opening presents, but here are the few that I did. Kimball was more excited than Simon about opening presents. Simon was sad he didn't get exactly what Kimball got!

Kimball was getting anxious waiting for everyone to come in the room so he could open his Santa presents.
Lots of fun stuff!!

Mom opening a present.

Kimball being a reindeer. Christmas was lots of fun with Aaron and his family. I am glad they let me come out and spend the holiday with them, Laura, dad, and mom!!

Toby...the best dog ever!

Toby opening presents, he wasn't that into this Christmas, usually he loves it!
Simon playing with Toby.

Laura napping with the dogs. :)

Toby's so cute!

Toby lounging with me. I thinked he loved all the attention he got during Christmas. He was scared at first to be in Colorado, I think he thought mom and dad were going to leave him, but he warmed up quick to being there.

Baby Eleanor

Eleanor is the cutest baby girl ever!! I am so excited to finally have a niece and she is just perfect. She is such a cute baby and happy all the time. It was so fun to hold her and talk to her. I couldn't get enough of her!

She had the cutest smile and coo when you talked to her.

Simon loves his baby sister.

Aunt Laura has the magic touch.

The cutest little girl!

So peaceful when sleeping.

Thanksgiving!!

For Thanksgiving I went up to Idaho, but first I made a stop at Sam and Lisa's in Logan. It was lots of fun to see them and their new place. I haven't seen them in forever!! I stayed with them on Wednesday and then drove up to Idaho Falls on Thursday.

Brian and Tyler playing in the Isabel Bloom wrapping paper! They were too funny.

Wes and Owen on Thanksgiving day in their cute hats! Becky's parents were kind enough to let me come over for Thanksgiving dinner with their family. They sure take me in a lot and I really appreciate them!

Wes and Owen watching a movie in their parents bed. They were so cute all propped up and cozy. I love these little guys!! I was sick most of the time I was there so I didn't get to cuddle with them very much :( .... I will just have to make up for that next time!

Wes and Owen in the fire truck cart at the mall!! What fun and don't worry Becky you looked great pushing them around in it!! :) hehe

Thanks for the fun! Love you guys

Reunion and Craft Time!!

A couple of weeks ago Megan came from Washington to visit. It was so much fun! I hadn't seen her since her wedding in January (it's been way too long). While she was here we did some fun craft projects (can't wait until next time!).

This is a very cute craft that I made with Megan and Natalie. We got the idea from Roberts (it wasn't a holiday one but we decided to make it that way!!) It was so much fun having Megan here to visit and doing fun craft projects all together.

Megan's, mine, and Natalie's craft

Then we also made blocks that I stole the idea from my sister-in-law and her sisters. One side says Autumn and the other side is Winter. They were so much fun to make!

Jaime, Megan, me, Sheena, and Natalie

While Megan was here we also got together with some old roommates. Jaime came down from Idaho for the reunion. It was a blast! I haven't seen these girls in a while but it was just like old times. I love these girls and am so glad for the good times we had.

Cute little Puggle

This is the cute little puggle I had for a day. I was going to name her Maggie. She was such a doll and sooo tiny! :(

Halloween Fun

The boys are definately getting more use to me and warm up to me a lot quicker when I visit. Wesley was so cute. He was so lovey and cuddly with me this weekend. It's just what I needed.

Wesley climbing on me.

Staci with Owen and Wes while they are eating some carrots.

Owen trunk or treating!!

Wesley the frog and Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight aka Owen

It was fun to be with the boys on Halloween night, they were so cute and a little hyper (probably from the candy!). Kevin and Becky just moved in to their house that day as well. So I was glad to be able to help them unpack some of their stuff this weekend.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!

This last week at work it was employee week so there were different classes and activities we could go to. A couple of us went to this one on vinyl lettering and this is what we made!! So cute. Who knew I could be so crafty. And what makes it even better is that it was free! :) Can't beat that.

Happy Birthday Becky!!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful sister-in-law!! I don't normally put up birthday posts, but I thought I would today. Becky sure puts up with me a lot. I love to go up to Idaho to visit them and she is always so welcoming to me in their home. She is a great hostess and so fun to be with. I think she is just an incredible mom too and I hope one day to be like her. Thanks Becky and I hope you have a super fantastic day!! I love you.

The Quilted Bear

So I have a major weak spot for the Quilted Bear. It is the cutest store with the best decorations. Everytime I go in there I want to buy it all! I wish I had lots of money. Whenever I walk in there I get so happy. It's such a pleasant place to be! :) I gave in and got a couple of decorations during the last two weeks.

When I saw this Christmas decoration I had to have it. It was screaming, "Rosanne buy me!!". And I had to set it up to see how it would look...it's still up. :)

And of course it is still Halloween time and I got this super cute "prison" pumpkin! I love it! I went back to get a bigger one too, but they were all gone. :(

I can't wait until I have a house to decorate! I hope Quilted Bear is still around then!!

What happened to fall?!?

Because of the flurries we had last Saturday and the fact that it's been soooo cold, I am ready for Christmas! I realize Halloween is still not here and I am excited for that and have all my decorations out, but it is just so cold it's like winter! I don't know what happened to fall this year, it sure got skipped. I have heard it's suppose to get a little warmer this weekend but we shall see. I will admit too that I have listened to Christmas music on my i-pod the last few nights when going to bed. :)

Family Fun

Kyle and Staci

Wes and Owen getting ready to duel...Star Wars style.

Wes looking so cute with the soccer ball...he didn't really like to kick it but hold it.

Kevin double timing it...owen with the football and wesley with the soccer ball.

Owen just after throwing the football, this kids got quite the arm! :) He is going to be a super star someday for sure!!

Salt Lake Fun

A couple of weeks ago, a small group of us went up to Salt Lake to have some fun. We first went to a park, I think its called Freedeom Park. Then we headed over to the Melting Pot for some yummy dessert.

Jaque feeding the ducks.

The pretty pond.

James and Jaque were having a contest to see who could do the most cartwheels down the sidewalk.

The perfect way to end a fun filled night. Delicious dessert at the Melting Pot. The fondue was so good...I love the white chocolate. I just realized I am not in any of the pictures, whoops! :)

Idaho Falls

This weekend I went up to Idaho Falls to spend it with Kevin, Becky, Owen, and Wesley. It was lots of fun. It was great to just be with them and get away from Provo. I love being with my family and especially my super cute nephews.

Wesley with his hair combed so cute!
Owen and I

I had so much fun guys! Thanks for having me! :)
