A Bunch of Nothingness

It is about time for an update, but I have no pics to share:( unless you all want to see a pic of me taken before the ward Halloween party. I promise it is a little scary!



well, I had some family pictures taken by a talented friend in her in home studio and I have to say ahhhh!!!! I can't believe my hair looked like that... haha, but the pics did turn out really nice so when I get those from her I will show you all!!!


Hope you all are having a wonderful December!!! The countdown to Christmas has begun! Less than 20 days till Christmas!

Cute New Dress

I had some material sitting around and I thought I should finally use it for something and so... I sewed this up for Drezden! Drezden has a dress that I like and I thought I would try to make another version of it... I know it is not perfect, but I think it was really cute on her and I do plan on trying this style out again!

Potty Training???

Well, I guess it is time to start Potty Training Drezden... After all she does change her own diaper...
I don't look forward to trying to fight with her to sit on the potty and I certainly do not look forward to having to leave bathroom doors open (we still have Sullivan- who likes to splash in the toilet, not to mention leave little "surprises" for us in there, and don't forget about when we find him in the bathroom sink-to worry about). Ah! Where to start!?
I guess it is time though...
*sigh*
I know I will love it when she is Potty Trained...
:)

Waisting Wipes...

As of late Drezden has taken a liking to wiping the coffee table off with baby wipes... She will "clean the table" for hours... Earlier when it was nap time she was cleaning and she cried when I took her away from her "cleaning". Right now- yes as she is watching the movie "UP" she is "cleaning the coffee table" yet again. Phil wished she would take an interest in cleaning other things too! Should I be upset that she is using all of the wipes? I guess not. I would rather her use wipes then any type of chemicals.

Oh The Places I'll Go

So I decided today that I am going to travel the world and I thought I would share with you all some of the few places I would love to visit.

Puerto Rico! and the best thing is I don't need a passport!!!

New York! I hope to visit NY next summer! Oh that would be fun!

A friend of mine wants to go to China next year... Can you say AWESOME! Seriously though I would love to see the Great Wall of China. I will one day! You will see!!!

And who doesn't want to go to Paris??? When should I make this trip...?

Okay- now who wants to come with me?

November!

Wow, November already? How many days till Christmas? I haven't even started on my Christmas Shopping yet....

Halloween Costumes

So for Halloween Drezden is going to be a dragon and Sullivan is going as a monkey. I found these super cute costumes at Old Navy! I couldn't pass these up! They are so stinking cute and they will keep my little ones really warm on Halloween!
I decided to take some pics of them in their costumes so Phil and I took them up to the canyon and here are a few of my favorite shots!!!

Don't you think they are cute?












I still haven't decided what I will dress up as or if I will dress up...

Photo Shoot!!!

What have we been up to???

This last week was a busy week for sure! I went and played volleyball with the RS in the stake, I went to a Usborne Book party, we took the kids to the Pumpkin Patch, we headed down to payson for Daniel's Eagle Court of Honor, and on Sunday we went to Ogden to see our lovely niece for her baby blessing. Here are just a few pics from this fabulously busy week!

*and on a side note I just found out Provo is doing a Halloween Half Marathon that I wish I knew about 3 months ago. There is no way I can train for one in less than a month... Ah! I am so disappointed!!! Maybe next year!




Danny is an Eagle Scout!


We went to the Pumpkin Patch


I think they enjoyed it!


Kayli is darling in her baby blessing dress!
