Fun Filled Month of December!

The girls had a blast today sliding down the stairs, Cambree was laughing uncontrollably!
We went sledding and had a great time, it was the perfect hill to go down but maybe not the perfect hill to walk back up. Cambree only went down once and that was enough for her. She was completely content sitting at the top of the hill eating snow!



We went down to see TJ's sister and her family and we had a blast. We had tons of fun going to a gymnastics meet and swimming! They had a lazy river that kept you moving pretty fast and the girls loved being able to swim without even trying!



Cambree couldn't get enough of the popcorn!! She was, wherever the popcorn was!


Cambree sleeping in a big girl bed for the first time! She did great and she was so proud of herself!!
All of the cousins playing and eating on New Years Eve!!


Sledding behind the T-Rex! The girls have gotten so much braver over the years. Kaylee kept saying faster, faster and didn't even care when she tipped over!

Cambree is not a fan of sledding but she hung in there!

My dad took us ice skating which at first I thought was a great idea and then the first hour thought it wasn't a great idea, and then by the end thought it was a good idea again!! You get my point, kids so excited and then scared to death the minute they stepped on the ice. This is how I skated with Malia almost the entire time. My arms and shoulders were so soar the next day from lifting her up and keeping her up! The side wall was Kaylee's best friend but by the end she was able to venture away from it and hold her own! Ellie and Austin were amazing though and skated like the pros!!

All the little ones had fun watching the rest of us make fools of ourselves!!!
The girls have wanted to see the lights at Temple Square for the longest time and so this year we made it there and met up with my brothers family and kids! (Cambree was having a lot more fun being babysat by G-ma & Gpa) The lights always amaze me and I can't help but think how many hours and how many people it would take to put up that many lights, AMAZING!!!


My mom was brave enough to try making a craft with all of the Grandkids! They turned out really cute even though you can't see it in this picture, marshmallow snowman!
Christmas Morning!! It's always fun to see the excitement on the kids faces!!



My mom made these adorable aprons for all of the Granddaughters, they love them and they are so cute!

One of Kaylee's favorite presents was her book light, kind of funny, but she's my little reader who would sneak flashlights into her room and so she could read without us knowing! She took it to school for show and tell and the class voted on the coolest "Christmas presents" show and tell and she took second place. She was so excited!!!
FRIENDS FROM NEBRASKA!!!!
Kaylee and Isabelle, best little Kindergarten friends!!
The Bjornberg family, church friends!
The girls with sweet little Haley! Kaylee really isn't that much taller, she was wearing 3 inch hills!
The girls with Carissa and Karnie!! My girls absolutely loved all of these kids!! They talk about them all the time and keep hoping that they'll all come to see them sometime! We miss all of you!!
Kaylee at her 1st Grade Christmas Concert. It was so adorable and it's amazing to me how one teacher can keep 110 kids attention all by himself!
Kaylee and Malia got to dance at the High School dance camp!! They loved every second of it and had a blast!! Movie below!

Also for family home evening one night we played Minute to Win It!! We cheered and laughed a lot but the absolute funniest thing was watching TJ try to pick up the paper bags that were 8, 6, 4, & 2 inches off the floor. Hopefully the movie below will give you a little laugh!!!

Cambree's 2!!

I can't believe that my little Cambree is 2!!! She is our blonde haired blue eyed beauty! We had a family party and had a Cow theme; cow cake and Kaylee made a "Pin the Moo on the Cow" game. She loved opening her presents and Kaylee and Malia were so cute and made her all of these cards and gave her some of their favorite toys that Cambree loves! She loved having all of the attention on her and she loved blowing out the candles on her "Moo" cake!



Cambree's doing pretty good about potty training but I wouldn't say that we are all the way there...yet! We have completely gotten rid of the binky though and so we are making progress!
I watched a friends kids the other night and they loved using the treadmill as a slide! I guess if it's too cold to go outside you might as well improvise, right!
Kaylee and Malia got to dance during the Basketball game on Saturday and they absolutely loved it! Kaylee said, "That Rocked" and Malia just thought that it was really fun. They actually did a great job and it was fun to watch them!
