It's Christmas Time!

It's a wonderful time of year! This past weekend Erika decorated our house and tree and I put lights on our house. Here are a few pictures for your enjoyment. Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Kayleigh enjoying her pumpkin pie!
Isn't this so funny?
The chefs of the day, thanks!






Our table all ready.
Kayleigh and Grace playing patticake!
Kayleigh in her turkey shirt, it says "Thankful for Mommy."
Grace is so cute with Kayleigh! Here she had to make sure Kayleigh wouldn't fall over. The girls had so much fun playing together! Grace also wore another shirt during the day that said she had a secret! On the back of the shirt it said she is going to be a big sister! Yahoo!!! Marie (my sister) is due June 25th, putting her 9 1/2 weeks along! We are excited for her!
Thanksgiving turned out really nice for us. We had a wonderful dinner and lots of pies! I even made a crust for one and then dumped cherry pie filling in it.
We are so grateful for everything that we have. We are thankful for our good health, for Kayleigh, for our home and food, for our cars that run well, and for the gospel. We are so blessed! We hope all of you also had an enjoyable day with family.

Just because



So I've tried to take pictures of Kayleigh in every outfit that she has since she was born. I'm sure I've missed some, but since a few days ago I took her picture I thought I'd post them. This outfit I can't remember who gave it to her, but I want to say Pam Ossmen, not sure though.

Million dollar home

Kayleigh LOVED this bear that was up at the house we stayed at.

This weekend we were up in Park City. We got the major hook-ups! Michael's mom was able to get us a really nice house to spend the weekend in for really cheap! The house had 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a pool table, hot tub, and movie theater! It was really fun to take advantage of all these fun things! We watched Spider Man 3 the first night we were there and were very disappointed! We did later enjoy Meet the Robinsons and The Polar Express though. Mostly we just kicked back and enjoyed not having to be on a schedule.

Kayleigh did pretty well for the most part, being in a new place and all. She didn't want to take a nap for longer than an hour and she woke up a few times each night, but really nothing to complain about.

On Sunday we attended Jason Muelleck's (my cousin) missionary "talk". He did a great job speaking, it was funny and spiritual. We went to their house afterwards for food and to congratulate him. He is going to the Tegucigalpa, Honduras mission. He will leave on Wednesday for the MTC in Provo and then leave for Honduras in January. He will be an excellent missionary!

Happy Birthday Tyler!

Today Tyler (our nephew) turned 4! Happy Birthday! He's sure a big boy now. We celebrated with him at dinner at his choice, El Matador. It was really yummy and a fun night. He loved opening his presents and wasn't really interested in his birthday cake, he just wanted to play Candy Land!

The newest craft

Today my mom helped me make this wreath. I've wanted a wreath to put above our t.v. forever now. My mom said just wait till fall and I could use her dogwood bush branches to make one. So, today we ventured out and tried it. It actually turned out pretty good! The best part about it is that it was FREE!!! Thanks for your help Mom.

Super Saturday



Last Saturday I made these at our ward's Super Saturday. I've been looking forward to making these since I signed up for them because they are so cute! Vinyl lettering is pretty popular right now and I can see why cause you can make some neat things using it.

Halloween


Last night Kayleigh had so much fun celebrating her 1st Halloween! She dressed up as a skunk and even went trick-or-treating. We took her around to a couple of neighbor homes and also to some of our family that lives close by. As we walked the streets she loved seeing other kids out too, she woul get so excited and kind of laugh at them. She even held her little basket to collect her candy, it was so cute! Needless to say, Michael and I had a fun time celebrating with her. Thanks to aunt Marie and Grace who let us borrow the skunk costume, it worked great and we got so many compliments!

Kayleigh also went and visited Grandma Suzy and Grandpa Tom at their work during the day. Suzy enjoyed showing her grandkids off (cousin Tyler and Brooke came too, and Staci). Grandpa Tom was dressed up as Napoleon Dynamite, it was great!

The last picture is of Michael's witch pumpkin he carved, looks good huh? It's a witch flying through the air.
