Tight Squeeze, Skiing, & Sunday Best

This is what I woke up to at 3am two nights ago and I had to get a picture of it (I was on the brown pillow), this is exactly how our bedroom ends up looking about 4-5 nights a week. Kennedy sneaks out of her bed and into ours and Piper loves to snuggle so she cries and I can't help but take her out of her bassinett and put her next to me. Chris ends up at the bottom of the bed cause that's the only place where there's any room. You think a king size bed is big until you try to fit a family of 4 in it. Gotta love it!!

My mom is a great skiier and decided she wanted to take Kennedy to learn to ski this year, so we took her over to my grandparents yard after it had snowed and had her put her ski's on to walk around in to see how she would like it. Well...she hated it! She cried and wanted nothing to do with it. So sad! We're hoping as we get her use to it and continue to take her out weekly that it will get better cause she'd make such a darling little skiier!

I had to put up a couple of the girls in their Sunday Christmas dresses cause they looked so festive and cute! Loved Christmas and had a Great one, but I'm glad it's over so life can get back to normal.

A Little Christmas, Santa & Some Randoms!!

I'm seriously the worst blogger ever! I have the greatest of intentions to document my children's lives this way but it is very difficult for me. I'm not computer savvy, I don't have a facebook, I just recently stepped into the world of "smart phones." Up until this Christmas I was rocking a phone where the most advanced thing it did was text messaging. I try really hard to be a good, consistent blogger, I'm not gonna lie though it's difficult for me. But here are a few cute pictures of my girls, it doesn't show all of the fun things we did this December but it still shows two very cute girls!

My sister, and my mom came with us to see Santa this year.

Here's my sis with Pipes!

Kennedy wanted nothing to do with Santa this year so this is as close

as you'll see her getting to him. The Christmas Tree in the doorway.

Piper was a happy girl waiting in line for Santa!

She didn't really give us a smile while sitting on his lap, but she didn't cry so I was happy!

A couple pics of my girls and their gorgeous, gigantic eyes!

Thanksgiving!

We spent our Thanksgiving this year with my side of the family and went up to Snowbird. We headed up on Wednesday to stay the night at 'The Lodge' at Snowbird and ate dinner at the buffet the next day. It was so much fun! I have the greatest family ever, and we had the greatest time! I so very rarely say (on my blog at least) what I'm thankful for. And I have so many things to be grateful for. So here goes... I'm so thankful for my wonderful family, my 2 beautiful healthy daughters, my hardworking husband who really is my best friend, the best parents I could EVER ask for, my sister who makes me laugh every time I'm around her, great friends, my Heavenly Father. And the list could go on and on! I'm very blessed in my life and I'm so Thankful every day for the things that I have. I hope everyone had just as great of a Thanksgiving as I did!

On October 22 & 23rd a group of the coolest people EVER ran in the Ragnar Las Vegas. My friend Amy and I put a team together and it was one of the funnest race I've ever done! I definetly plan on putting a team together again next year. My car was a blast to be with, we all got along so great and had the best time together, lack of sleep and all!

This was my car hanging out in St. George getting ready to head over to our first exchange point at Lake Mead.

HALLOWEEN

and my 2 beautiful witches!

Kennedy looks quite unhappy in this picture but she actually was very happy

to be in her witch costume for the first time.

Still so darling!

Sierra was Beyonce from the "Single Ladies" music video. We went trick or treating at her work so we could see her! She got 3rd place for her costume at her work. Nice job!!

Pumpkin Carving & Visiting the Witches!

I love the month of October, I feel like there's alot going on and I love being out and about doing fun things with the girls! Last week my mom and I took the girls to Gardner Village to see the witches and to get a few things for their halloween costumes this year. It was so fun and Kennedy had a blast with Grandma!

Piper slept the entire day!

She could have cared less where we were.

Every year we get together with our friends who live in our complex and have dinner & carve pumpkins at our place. It's such a fun night where we can eat, catch up and let the kids play. This year we added a couple more kids to our get together than we had last year. We love our neighbors and are lucky to have them as friends!

Me & my girls!
