Let It Snow and a HO HO HO!

So the weather outside is not that frightful. I thought that it was going to snow a lot, oh well maybe it will still come. I am so glad that we are going to have a white Christmas! I really love the snow this time of the year, it is in another month or two that I am ready for it to be gone.
So a couple of weeks ago we took the kids to WX Elementary to see Santa. We waited for about an hour, but it was worth it! The kids were so excited to tell Santa what they wanted. Luke was very nervous and it took all of his courage to tell Santa that he wants Geo Tracks Airport for Christmas. I was very proud of him! Jenna was very prepared and had written a list, all by herself and gave it to Santa. It was very cute! Santa gave them a big bag of peanuts and treats too. Speaking of Santa, the other day Dave and Jenna were talking about what they wanted for Christmas. Dave said that he wanted some hair. Jenna said" like a wig?" Dave said " No, real hair on my head." Jenna looked at him and said, " He's not that magic!" We had a pretty good laugh at that!

Jenna was able to perform at the Festival of Trees this year. They did a dance as snowflakes to Walkin in a Winter Wonderland. She new the whole dance almost perfect and helped the other girls to remember their steps. She did an awesome job! It was quite miraculous that Dave even made it to see her dance. The parking was horrific! He waited for a long time and fortunately they started late and Jenna was towards the end and He walked in right as they were taking the stage. We were very grateful that he didn't miss it.

We have had such a fun time this month! I think that the kids are so cute dressed up in their snow stuff. They have really been enjoying the snow and having hot chocolate. On Saturday they were able to play outside while I went to see Twilight. Yes, I finally saw it and I loved it for the most part(but that is another discussion!)Anyway, it is such a fun time of the year! My kids are counting down until Christmas, every morning the first thing that they do is run downstairs to do the calendar. It has been so nice because I don't feel stressed. I only have a few presents to wrap , which I love to do( just ask my family about the tip jar!)AHHH life is good!:)

An Update

So it has been awhile, unfortunately my computer is very moody and only works about half of the time so I haven't been very good at updating, but then again, I never was. So here is a little recap of a few event that have happened over that last month or two.

This was Halloween. I have my beautiful ballerina, my handsome knight and my sweet butterfly. The kids had a wonderful time trick or treating and had way too much candy!
This is my birthday boy! Luke is now three years old! I can hardly believe it. He keeps saying what a big boy he his now. ( if only he would go potty). He really was excited when he opened his new GeoTracks Train, Bull and Bruno. We went to Chuck-e- Cheese. He was a little grumpy, a little too much birthday, I think. But after awhile he warmed up to the craziness of that place!

This is Kira cheering on the Utes! She is a cute little Ute! We of course are totally happy for our Utes! For those of you who live in a cave, they are undefeated with an awesome win over BYU! They are now headed to the Sugar Bowl, I wish we were too!


Kira is now about two and a half months now! Time just goes so fast. She is sleeping pretty well, like 10-5:00am most days. She is also adjusting to naps and life in general. She is such a smiley, sweet girl! She smiles at mommy everyday! ( which makes it all worth it!)It is so nice now, because she will take a bottle and so I feel like I can have a life again. She is just so sweet!
Now, it is almost Christmas! I cannot believe how fast time flies! I do love this time of the year!
