Merry Christmas!

This sweet boy is definitely on the nice list :)

Thanksgiving

We got to fly down to beautiful, sunny, warm Arizona for Thanksgiving! I had literally been counting down the days for months. I never thought I would miss AZ this much, but it hurts my heart to just think about how long it will be till we are reunited again...

Grant did awesome on all of the flights. He either slept the whole time, or just sat on my lap.

Anyways, I wasn't very good about taking pictures, but here are a bunch of random ones..and most of them I stole from Ashlee!

There was madness going on at all times the whole week. We had about 30 people over for dinner!

Some of us went to the Mesa Temple lights.

This one cracks me up, all I wanted was a smooch!

Brandon and I hadn't been back there together since we got married over 2 years ago

Cute Luke

These girls were pooped!

Grant loved Nancy!

My Mom is all about the "Baby's 1st..." shirts and got this for him.

I swear every day she would give me a new toy or outfit for him, and we even had to bring home an extra suitcase to fit all of his Christmas gifts!

And someone took this random pic with my camera...

Till we meet again my Arizona...till we meet again...

1/4 Of A Century?!

Brandon turned 25 on the 18th of November!

John and Care and kids came over for some caramel carrot cake and ice cream

But we spent the whole afternoon at the car dealership trying to get a good deal on this puppy..

It was our first time buying a car so we didn't really know what we were doing, and Brandon does not take these kinds of decisions lightly! But after hours of research and negotiating we finally got it! And I LOVE IT! Black interior, leather seats, seat warmers, navigation system, back-up assistance...it rocks!

And we luckily got it the day before the huge snow storm or I really would have sat in my house all winter long.

I got Brandon some new Puma sneakers but this was his ultimate birthday gift...and our entire Christmas..

Family Pictures!

Our AMAZING AND AWESOME sister in law, Robbie, was so generous to take our family pictures for their Christmas gift to us this year. We were so grateful Robbie took the time out of her BUSY schedule (5 kids, one who just got out of Primary Children's for a month with E-coli!)

We love how they turned out!

More on my Facebook :)

Thanks again, Rob!

Ok, I guess I'll try it...
