We've been busy...

I am trying to make a few updates of what we have been up to these past couple of months. It's been crazy to say the least. I am so grateful for a new year and new opportunities!! Hopefully I can do better at everything this year- here's to hoping, right?!! So feel free to scroll down and see what fun things we've done:)

Hillam Christmas Party


The Hillam Party is always a highlight of the Christmas season. I think I might have enjoyed it a little more had I not been in charge of it.

Santa always comes at the end of the party and brings presents for all the kids. It's so much fun watching all the kids wait patiently for their turn. Both of the girlies did a great job- no tears!!

Lucky for us Buddy the Elf also made an appearance at the party:)

Live Nativity


There is a neighborhood in Lehi that puts on a Live Nativity. I bundled up the girls and we went. It is such a wonderful experience. I love showing my kids the real meaning of Christmas. They had a great time even in the freezing cold (I think it was in the teens that night).

Festival of Trees


Every year we brave the crowds and attend the Festival of Trees. The girls love it. This year we went with the Wilde's and the girls had so much fun with Brea.

A year ago some of my friends from high school lost their little boy to a terrible kind of cancer, DIPG. They put together a tree for him and we had to stop by and check it out. They did a great job!!

Thanksgiving 2011


We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. Since both of our families are always in town we split the day up and hit both families. It's always fun to get together with everyone.

Lexi and I had fun on Black Friday. We stayed up all night and shopped our hearts out- or atleast I did:)
