Snow Day!

With out blizzard this past weekend (hit us on Friday until Monday, we got over 8 inches) we decided on Saturday to take Abby to play in the snow. It was the first time she played in the snow (last year she was too little and we barely got any snow at all) and she absolutely LOVED it! At first she was a little scared but soon she got up her nerve and had a blast! I am so glad I was able to play with her and have such a fun Saturday with my girl.







And lastly what snowy day would be complete without homemade cinnamon rolls? YUM!

Halloween again... This time from Big Bear!

Here are some pics from us in the mountains. The kids had such a good time. Luke even told me that he loved his costume and that everyone would think he was the real Batman, because he was. And Leona's hair turned out perfectly. We dyed it then left it in curlers for a day and voila!

Happy Halloween Everyone! I'm also putting in some extra pictures of Merida and Batman playing soccer. They're awesome, I know.

Happy Halloween from Utah!

What a fun Halloween! I decided about a month ago to dress up Abby as a cute puppy because puppies are Abby's absolute favorite! Whether she is playing with my sister's puppies or she just hears a dog bark she is more happy and excited then any other time. The puppy costume was big hit! Matt dressed up as a Clark Gable look-a-like (or as just a guy from the 1940's, whichever way you wanna look at it) and I found this cute skeleton shirt (inspired by Allison's costume last year) that worked perfect cause it let both me and Liam dress up! And lastly Danielle dressed up as the girl from Brave, she looked super cute and a little dangerous, lol.

We started the day off by "trick-or-treating" at my work and everyone loved Abby's cute puppy costume! After work we go ready for our traditional Halloween Pizza Party! Being that it was also Danielle's birthday we did a combo party and it was so much fun! We enjoyed Pizza and sugar cookies (which I forgot to take a picture of) and giving candy to trick-or-treater's. In fact that was probably the high-light of the night for Abby, giving candy out to all the kids. She loved it! Sometimes she would give them one candy, sometimes a handful, and at one point she even took a dum-dum from a cute girl that just laughed. What a funny girl! We also visited my dad and Abby had so much fun jumping on the trampoline at his house it was hysterical  What a fun Halloween!

Cute Videos!

Here are the latest cute videos of my little big girl! One of the cutest things has to been how much Abby loves to watch these videos. She is always asking for my phone and saying either "puppy" or "baby" meaning she wants to watch the video with the puppy or the baby (herself). She can just sit and watch the videos over and over again, it's so fun!


Abby LOVES her puppies! Well technically they are my sister's puppies but I think Abby has officially claimed them as her own, lol. Silly girl! (10/7/2012)


Abby has been talking a storm lately so I decided to get a video of some of the cute words she says. (9/20/2012)


I sent this video to Matt who had to work a Saturday and was missing his girls (8/25/2012)


My little talker! It's so funny when she has a phone (or anything that resembles a phone), she will talk for hours! (7/20/2012)

Happy Birthday Matt!


Today is my AMAZING hubby's birthday so Abby and I got up really early to help him celebrate!! Matt and I were both surprised to find that Abby had a present for her daddy in her crib, lol. Abby got her daddy some treats for work, what a good girl!





Next up was our "BIG" gift for Matt. Abby was loving how big the box was that Matt's next present was in, lol. She also wanted to help her daddy open it and of course her daddy couldn't say no to that face.




We got Matt a brand new surround-sound system with blu-ray player! What a lucky little birthday boy!!



The next two pictures Abby took for us, what a smart little photographer.



Later that night we took Matt out to dinner for his birthday at Los Hermanos in Provo, a family favorite. We met up with my mom, Ryan, Chelsie & Wes, and Matt's sister Danielle who is living with us right now. It was nice getting together and spoiling Matt on his big day!






We had the staff at Los Hermanos surprise Matt with singing "Happy Birthday" it was too funny! The whole time Abby wasn't quite sure what was going on. It was only after they finished and they started singing for another table that Abby started to clap, what a funny girl.



We had such a fun night and hopefully overall Matt had a great birthday! I love spoiling my hubby just as much as he loves spoiling me! We decided that we are going to keep the fun going and this weekend we are going to Park City for a little "Birthday/Pre-Baby" Vacation! I can't wait!!
