Happy Thanksgiving!

I really didn't get any pictures except for 1 picture of homemade cinnamon rolls while they were being frosted... haha


The day was great, and Thanksgiving is always a memorable enjoyable holiday. We were able to have a wonderful lunch with fantastic people. Then watch "Miracle on 34th Street."

Happy Birthday Easton!

Today was Easton's 2nd Birthday! It is so crazy to see how big he has gotten. He was way more interested in the birthday activities this year. He liked to wear the birthday hat, and loved to blow out the candles.

Mom made homemade frosting to put on the cake, but after she had poured the frosting, she was sitting the bowl down and it slipped and broke. Glass shards got everywhere! Including.... in a third of the cake. It was sad, there was some mourning (; but what was left was still fantastic.

Happy Birthday to my oldest Nephew (:








The best family shot we could get...

Happy Birthday Cable!

Today was Cable's 9th birthday, he was SOO excited. He knew exactly what he wanted. Frozen Lasagna for dinner, and Special K-Bars for dessert, and anything lego for a present. He was quite content to just to watch Star Wars and play with his toys. So Mom, Kori, Gabe, Addie, and I all went out to get his gifts. 

We went to Target to get his gifts, and to look at some clothes for Addie. Gabe was getting tired of sitting in the cart, so I took him to try on sunglasses- he loves trying on sunglasses (:

Then we went to Hobby Lobby because Kori needed to get some fabric for a Christmas Present. While they were looking I took Gabe and Addie to look at the Christmas stuff. Gabe loved holding my hand while we walked around. I thought he would like the Christmas trees but in fact he didn't really care about them. What he REALLY liked were the snowglobes, or balls, as he calls them. He LOVED when I would shake them up. It was pretty funny. The next favorite stop was the party section, it had so many cool hats and things to try on, both Gabe and Addie loved it.






When we went home, Taylor, Caden, and Travis started setting up the Christmas lights. We were supposed to set up the Christmas tree (because that was what Cable wanted) but because everyone wasn't feeling super great we just waited.
