Christmas

 

 

 

 

We had a great white Christmas at home this year. It was pretty quiet and relaxing even though we were up at 6:30 Christmas morning!. Hanna could not wait any longer! Hanna got her princess vanity along with many accessories. Ava got some great toys but was more into the paper. However she did get a stuffed dog from dad that she loves. Everytime she sees it she starts to laugh, even when she is crying. We just ask her where her doggy is and she will start to giggle....it is too cute. We are so grateful this Christmas for all that we have and even more important all of our family and friends.

Princess Party

 
 



Hanna was invited to her friend Breanna's birthday party. Here are her cute friends and the yummy treats she ate at the party. She will not stop talking about "the princess party". There is no way she will forget it when her birthday comes around.

Where is my baby?

 
 

I know I have said this before but it seems like Ava is growing too fast. She started to walk right before her birthday and is walking a ton now. It is amazing to see her personality come out a little more. I think she is going to be more like Craig except with my stubbornness. She is so curious on how things work and into piratically everything. Hanna was never like that so it is interesting to see how different they are. The already bicker which has been real fun for me! Ava likes her space and any time Hanna comes near her she screams and tries to get away. Hanna has caught on to it and now antagonizes her until she throws a fit. It is lovely! Overall they enjoy each other's company but they are sisters what can I say.

You are thoughtful and care very deeply for your family. A loving home is of great importance to you and you always try to make people feel welcome.

Ava's 1st B-Day

We had a little birthday party for Ava. She turned 1 on November 30. She was shy about her cake at first. Then she got a little taste of the chocolate.












Then it was all over after that!
Then she tried to eat the plate!

Thanksgiving

I was kinda upset I did not take more pictures of Thankgiving. Here are the two that I have :( Here we are making potatos.

Hanna and her cousin Tyler. We had a great time in Portland seeing all the family.

Hooray for snow!

Last Saturday was so nice. We enjoyed the little snow that we got. Well Hanna probably enjoyed it the most as you can see. I just love this time of year. It is fun to see Hanna get so excited over little things!

Disney on Ice

We had such a good time at Disney on Ice. We were a little disappointed they canceled the show we bought tickets for. They were not giving refunds so we had to go to the Sunday show. Hanna was really excited about the princesses she got to see. Ava was not sure about the whole thing, one minute she was clapping and bouncing up and down the next minute she was crying. We will defiantly do it again.

Here are pictures of our fun Halloween night. Gotta love this picture of our nephew Dreyson. Hanna had a lot fun but was a little scared of some houses that had scary decorations. It didn't help that her Uncle Blake would make scary noises to try and scare her. The weather was so nice, we were in short sleeves. We could not of asked for a better Halloween!

Carving Pumpkins

We carved pumpkins last Monday. For the first time Hanna touched the guts of the pumpkin. I love the fall time, there are so many fun things to do!

Trunk or Treat!

So I have been slacking this week with blogging. Here is a picture of my little fairies from our Ward's Trunk or Treat. Hanna was a little unsure of it all. She gets scared really easily and some of the costumes freaked her out a little.

Hanna's Dance Class

We have taken a break from gymnastics to try dance. It is a ballet/hip hop dance class. So far she is really enjoying it. She shows me her ballerina positions at home.

She watches her princess movies and she always acts like she is dancing with a prince at home so I thought she would enjoy this.

More Pumpkin Patch

We found it!!!!

Hanna's preschool class....Marcus, Claire and Breanna.

Fun at the pumpkin patch

We had a great time at the pumpkin patch yesterday with Hanna's preschool. Here they are trying to find their way in the hay maze.

Here they are on the hayride to pick out their pumpkins. Cheesy smile!!

Too cute... looking for pumpkins.
