Our Christmases

So Adam had to work on Christmas so we celeabrated at our house on the 23. So the night before the girls left cookies for santa and of course they had to have one too.

And the girls were so excitied. Grandma and grandpa and aunty Char and Kare came to watch.

Santa brought each of the girls a new dolly, That they love. And grandma and grandpa made sure they had plenty of gifts to open.

So on the actual day of Christmas We were all in San Jose at Adams Sisters house. Since he didnt have work until noon it worked out nice plus all of his family was there.
The girls really loved Christmas and opening all the gifts. But we did teach them this year that Christmas is Jesus birthday.
Well after Adam was off to work I left and drove back to my parents were the girls got to open even more gifts. To say they are two very spoiled girls is an understatement. All in all it was great.

last friday we went to my parents ward christmas party they did a get thing that was a journey back to jerusalem. You dress in the era and we walked from room to room were you saw the angels, sheperhs, wise man and mary and joseph and they told there story. It was really done well.

Saturday we went to our new ward and there christmas picture. Here we got to see santa as you can see they were to hot on the idea though after they saw him they were so excitied to tell everyone that they saw him and that he gave them candy.

Monday we went and got our Christmas tree. And then eat cookies and decorated it. The girls loved this. They got so excitied with every new ordament.
Kaia helped put on the star.

Sharlee took great care in putting every ordament on 3 times.




Yesterday we made a ginger bread house that grandma made for us. It might not be the best looking one but the girl

Family Fun Thanksgiving



So Saturday Luke, Tiff, Kade and Kara came in and it was great to have them all here. Tuesdauy the rest of the family came and it was great to have everyone. Thanksgiving was wonderful as always. THe food was great and Tiff made amazing Pies! MMM! Somehow during the sitting down at the table and getting up from the table I must have ate to much because I pulled my growing muscle and have been gimpping around since. But I think its getting better.
Mom got the kids these turky hats. It was pretty cute.

The girls this year are old enough to start putting the olives on there fingers. Love it! Its so cute probably because I remember doing it as a kid.

out of town again


So we went up to Utah since KAra was turning 18 and Char flew up so we could celeabrate there b-days. Char turned 21. We went to this place called jump on it it a bunch of trampolines on the walls and floor and some bounce houses for kids. It was a blast. Sharlee took a long time to warm up to it since she woke up from her nap there. But after that it was great.


Then we had everyone over for dinner, gifts, and of course cake and ice cream.

The next day was Halloween We went to lunch a Tacanoos (yes we got there a lot) Then at night we took the girls trick or treating. They loved it They were so cute saying trick or treat, THank you, Happy Halloween! They got faster and faster between the houses.

Saturday we went on the Bridal Vail Falls Hike and this time the girls walked and they did pretty good. But we didnt really keep up with everyone. The colors were beautiful and I was happy I had left me camera in the car because I was able to get these pictures that I LOVE! Of the girls playing in the leafs.

Yes on Prop 8


Since everyone I know that reads this has the same point of view as I do on Prop 8 I thought this would get my point across on our view and that we feel that YES on Prop 8 is a Big Thing

Trunk or Treat


Yesterday or ward had Trunk or Treating and the girls had so much fun and they looked super cute if I do say so myself. It was hard to figure out what to make them this year because we will be in Ut for Halloween so it had to be layerable. But I think this worked out well. Me and Adam decided last minute to dress up a little too.

The girls were cute saying trick or treat and saying thank you. They also hint up my mom 3 or 4 times.

Here they are eating the "trick or treats" as they call them. I think it was a great practice run for Friday and the real deal.

Fall Festivities

So on Monday for Family Night we made YUMMY carmal apples. The girls thought this was great. They had fun with the chocolate (true girls)

And Sharlee kept eating the marshmellows after she dipped them in the choc. They were so cute and messy eating them. It was straight into the tub.


Then on Tuesday we went to a pumpkin patch. It was great it has a small Hay maze that the girls liked so much we decidied to pay to go in the corn maze. They liked deciding were we would go and if we got to a dead end they would say "Were Stuck!"

Mommy and Daddy had a lot of fun to. The girls loves finding the corn that was left and showing it to us.


Then we went and picked out two great pumpkins and trust me the girls know whos is whos. And they know exactly were they want is on the porch.

We even got to pick some strawberries.
