Cutting down our Christmas Tree




One of my favorite traditions we do every year is that we go to the Uintas to cut down our family Christmas tree. We bring up soup and have lunch with hot chocolate. One year I chose such a big tree Mitch took 2 hours to hall it back to the truck. They seem so little in the forest, until you get them in your house. It's always an adventure this year I slid the truck off the snowy road into the bank, then Mitch took over. We don't agree on each others driving!

FiRst SmiLe

He is 13 weeks old now, and has been smiling for us we finally caught it!

Halloween

Beckham was a bat. He was in his costume for just a second, mostly for pics. Then went back to sleep. It was such beautiful weather he walked around trick-or-treating with us though.
Bridget was a Fairy and yes I did her make up, every one asked!
Can you spot the monster among the princesses and fairies?.......

Baker-in-training

One of our favorite things to do is Bake together. Bridget's favorite thing to bake is cup cakes with sprinkles. Today we were making an apple pie. I asked her to go get the flour and oops! She grabbed the lid only and flour went everywhere, she just stood there in shock.

In memory of my Grandma

My Grandma passed away Oct. 4, she fought an 8 year long battle agianst cancer. This picture was at Bridget's b-day last year (2 yr). My Grandma never missed any event; even if she was all "chemo'd up!" as she would say. I remember when all us girls went to Wendover last year, she came and hung with us until 4 a.m. She loved trips to Wendover. She was such a fighter. We will miss her!
