Christmas Morning

Every year Christmas gets better and better as our family grows and Gracie gets older. This year Gracie got a kitchen and a table and chairs and Sabi got a beautiful quilt (thanks Aunt Shannon) some new toys and a exersaucer that she loves. We spent Christmas morning at our house and then went to my parents for the day. What a fun day. My Dad bought a Wii and Xbox so we played Gutair Hero and games with the family. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

Fuzzy Wuzzy Was A Bear

And such a cute one she was! I love this cuddly little bear. Sabrina is such a happy baby and LOVES her Mommy. I finally got my Mommas girl! Gracie is a total Daddys girl so I said the next one was mine:) She smiles when she sees Daddy but her whole face lights up when she sees her Mommy. Sorry Bryan. LOL..

Early Christmas!

So we opened some of our Christmas gifts early this year and for good reason too! Gracie and I got some new snow gear for Christmas and we couldn't resist breaking them out early for all this fun snow we've been getting. We had so much fun! Maybe I wont complain about the snow and cold weather as much now that I can dress warm and play in it. This was Gracie's first time actually playing in the snow and she could have stayed out there for hours. She never minds bundiling up because she knows that means she's going outside. As you can tell from the the grin she's trying to hide in the first picture. First we built a slide and then Bryan turned it into a tunnel and me and Gracie built a snowman, which Gracie's version of the word sounds more like pumpkin. LOL. Oh and by the way Whoppers malt balls make great eyes and a smile for snow men :)

Christmas Cuties

I dressed the girls up for our Ward Christmas party. They looked so cute so I had to share. Gracie loves her rocking horse she got for her Birthday and I thought it was very appropriate in front of the Christmas tree.

Ho ho ho Merry Christmas!

I'm shocked Gracie isn't screaming in this picture. I've been getting her excited for Santa this year so when she saw him she knew exactly who he was. It also helps she was sitting on my lap and not his. LOL.. Sabrina didn't mind a bit though:) I loved Santa's outfit and he even had a real beard! He must be the real deal!

Gracelyn

My baby is all grown up! Gracie is my fun loving little ball of energy who is bound and determined to get anyone to get up and play with her. She is our little spitfire and we love her to pieces! Happy Birthday Gracie we are so happy you're in our lives.

Happy Birthday Gracie!

My big two year old! Gracie turned two on Thanksgiving day this year so we celebrated with friends before we left to St. George and then had a family party the day after in St. George. Gracie had so much fun and loved all of her gifts. I can't believe she's two! Every year we do a dvd slide show of pictures of the past year and we play it at the party. It's a tradition we started when Gracie turned one and it's so fun to see and watch them grow. They always make me cry. Even Gracie gets a kick out of watching them. Grandma Burnett puts them together and does such a good job on the videos. Thanks Grandma Burnett!

Storage Shelves

Bryan and his brother Brandon built storage shelves in our basement two weekends ago. They turned out awesome! Now all we need to do is stock them up. It makes me excited to start getting prepared for our little family.

The Cutest Laundry I've Ever Seen!

Gracie's favorite game to play is hide and seek. She hides under the bed, in the closet, in cupboards and her new found spot the dryer. Whenever she hears Bryan come home from work she runs to me and says HIDE! What a cutie:)

Four months already!

Sabrina is four months old today! I can't believe how fast she's growing. We love our little Sabi!

Trick or Treat!

Gracie had a fun time trick or treating this year. At least I think she did. LOL.. She would stand in front of a door I would knock and she would just stare at the person. I would put the candy in her bag for her and tell her to say thank you but she would just continue to stare. LOL.. After they would close the door then she would say thank you and bye bye. She did love her costume this year, she wanted to wear it non stop with the hoodie on and everything. By next year she'll be a pro! Her cousin Elizabeth went trick or treating with us and she made an adorable lady bug:)

Halloween Party!

My sister had her yearly Halloween party and it was a blast! Everyone had great costumes this year. The food was great like always and the spook alley even spookier this year. LOL.. I was sportin the Bruin power that night, go Bruins! Grace was a cute butterfly, Sabrina a pink poodle and Dad was David Beckham. My cousin Kendra is staying with us right now and we are having non stop Halloween fun!

Pumpkin Carving!

This was Gracie's first pumpkin carving with Daddy! She had so much fun helping get all the goo out and drawing his face on him. This was our home grown pumpkin from our garden. Impressive huh!
