A well deserved treat

Tonight we had family pictures. And it was FREEZING!!!
Poor Lexie was a frozen little girl, and shivered through the whole session. We had to keep the truck parked close by, running, so we could take turns sitting in there to get warm while each person got their picture taken.

Since we were all freezing, and the kids were such good sports, we figured we should get a warm treat.
And we hadn't tried the Fractured Prune yet so that's where we ended up!

It didn't disappoint!!

You get to pick what kind of donut, then the frosting and topping. And watch it be made. Perfect entertainment for the kids.

A little more progress

They're getting the upstairs framed today!!

Parents Day

This is always my favorite day at dance. We don't get to watch them ever, only on parents day.

That day finally came and we got to see all she has learned! 

I think she has the perfect ballerina body!!

I'm jealous!

After their normal lesson they have free dance time.

She absolutely would not do free dance.

She must have been too embarrassed :(

So she sat by me. And that's ok.

Santa

The boys asked to be surprised. 

Lexie asked for a pink polka dot mug!

And Mason slept right up until they handed him over

Snow, and playing in the leaves

One thing about our St. George weather is it can snow one minute and 

the next thing you know we're out there in our shorts.

It's the craziest weather, but we love it!!

And that's pretty much what happened today. Well, not the shorts, but it snowed yesterday, the kids played in it, then today we're out raking leaves and jumping in the pile enjoying the sun!!

This is why we live where we do!

And this one just wants to be in on all the fun. He can't miss a thing!

This boy...

He literally melts me!! He's the happiest baby!!

From the day he was born he only cries when he's hungry, tired, or needs his diaper changed.

I never believed people when they told me that about their baby.

I didn't think it could really happen, but it does!!

Prayers are answered and we got a calm, easy going, good baby!!

We love him so much!

ELLLLLFFFF!

At Target yesterday Melanie spotted these dang cute elf diapers. 

We just had to have them!!

They're a little big, but they'll work. 

Who doesn't love a baby elf?!!

'the most wonderful time of the year'

I love homework assignments like this!

I'm so glad he decided to wrestle this year. I can't believe I forgot to post this.

Started making wish lists last night. Some had plenty to ask for, others had a harder time. What do 11 year old boys like?
