Snow 12.14.14

We love snow. Sadie and I were so excited to wake up to it snowing! We watched out the windows and then ran outside to check it out.

Sugar Cookies 12.12.14

I wanted to do sugar cookies with the kids and so we decided to invite Jenny and her kids to do them with us. Might as well just make one big mess eh? It was a lot of fun and the kids ate a LOT of frosting. It was a little gross.
But they liked creating (giant globs of disasters) artwork on their cookies.

Thanks for coming to play with us!

Provo Tree Lighting 12.6.14

I wanted to make sure that the girls met Santa so we went down to the festival. I got them dressed in their really cute nice dresses and we got there right when it started so we could be in line first for Santa. I was ticked to find out that Santa would not be there until after the tree ceremony (I mean come on they didn’t advertise that anywhere!!) Totally lame.
It was really small but still very fun. We watched them sculpt the ice sculpture for a while and then walked around.
Andrea met us there and walked around for a bit with us. I bought some kettle corn for us all to share (it was like 3 dollars). It was so fun!
Provo City Party
We got to take pictures with a llama. He tried to eat the kettle corn out of Sadie’s hands and so she didn’t like him after that. It was hilarious. Provo and their llamas! (Which they are actually from Spanish Fork I think).
Here he is trying to snatch her food.

Look at  her staring at him in suspicion.

Too bad I am trying to kiss the dumb thing when Sadie is actually looking. haha
S0030738
I lose Scout’s hat on the way down there and we looked all around for it and as we were walking back Sadie spotted it on the tree. It is amazing how observant little kids can be. She is the hero!

We were hungry and Andrea had free Chick fila coupons so she was nice and shared with us. Then we went home and went to bed. Too bad we missed the lighting…I heard it was good but maybe next year!

Oh Christmas Tree 12.3.14

We went with Kristin and Seth and Chrissy to go get our tree this year. We just went back to the place we got it last year and bought one. This year it was 24 dollars or something like that.

The girls enjoyed helping us get it ready.

We love tree hunting. We will have to get the pictures from Chrissy from this! (I think she sent them to me but I can’t find them Sad smile

Chillin’ at Grammy’s 11.23

Trip to Grammys1
Grammy is so good and does music time with the kids. They love making their own noises and then trading with each other to get a different one. Scout loved playing with them!
We played a lot at Grammy’s house. She has the best toys! Ada and Sadie and Lorelai were the best of friends. A lot of times though it would be Sadie and Lorelai because Ada is pretty independent. She is hilarious though. Ada is so great. Lorelai is very sweet.
The kids loved looking for the deer every day and Jonathan liked going sledding and playing with everyone. He was good to do some studying too while the girls mostly colored.
The last night there we had “Christmas.” That was really fun and Sadie (and Scout) enjoyed opening up some presents. Kara bought a piƱata at the store and so she filled it up and Grampy helped the kids do it. They were so excited to get the candy and cool finger lights out of there. You will notice in the pictures that Sadie kept eating the candy. I am not sure if anyone else got any because she kept coming back all night scarfing more. Kara also had a pin the something on the turkey. I can’t remember what it was but the kids liked it. I don’t think Sadie understood it though.
Trip to Grammys2

We loved playing with our friends/cousins the Morgans and were so glad we could go visit them!!
Sadie was really sad to leave everyone. And she was sad to leave Lucy too.

We left Thanksgiving Day and I can say it was the worst flight I have ever been on. The kids were crabby and the flight attendants were not as friendly as usual ( I attribute a lot of that to the fact that we didn’t sit in the back row this time). The person who chose to sit by me wasn’t friendly or helpful at all. We didn’t get to drink our hot chocolate as there was turbulence and they took everything back before it had time to cool. I also got my migraine thing I get occasionally on the descent of airplanes. It is a searing pain in my eyebrow area. It hurts so bad so I was like bawling on the way down.

Scout really likes to look out the window which is great as long as Sadie doesn’t want to. Otherwise, it is a big fight. hahha
Sadie likes to look at all the magazines they have and throw everything in the back of the seat on the floor.

We were so happy to find our Daddy. We love him and miss him when we are away.

We stopped at Grandpa Catron’s on the way back. It was good to see him but he wouldn’t come to Thanksgiving dinner. Rats.
We went over to Kristin and Seth’s apartment (even though they were in Seattle—super nice of them) and had Thanksgiving dinner with Meiling and Andrea. It was really nice and Andrea did a great job preparing the food and everything!

Park With Grampy

Grampy is so fun! We had a blast going to the park on day with him while everyone was off on an adventure. We went over to a park in the neighborhood by theirs and played. It was fun. DSCF0575DSCF0576DSCF0577

The kid’s love Grampy (except when he got them with too many snow balls—then there might have been some tears).

Someone peed her pants. Whoops.

She said she had more and wanted to go in the grass but she didn’t end up. Good thing I brought a change of pants!

The kids love the Dusty plane Grammy bought. They liked riding it around the house.
