Stupid Christmas Party

Daniel and I went to his Christmas party at Snowbird on Saturday night. WE drove through the snowy weather and the freezing night for a party that was kind of a bummer. It wasn't very fun. the food wasn't that good, the DJ stank adn we didn't even win anything!!! But we did go to eat breakfast with Dan's buddy Corey and his wife Erin after and that was good. all in all it was nice to have a night without the kids and be alone together. Oh how we cherish adult nights....

Our weekend

This past weekend was spent at my parents house and boy did we have fun! Daniel and I went to his work Christmas party at Snowbird and my parents watched the boys. Then on Sunday we went to the singles ward with then and I saw some old friends. Sunday the whole fam came over for dinner and then on Monday we played with grandma and that night we left to my in-laws for Dan's brother's birthday party and finally went home!We had a fun weekend and loved spending time with the parentals.

Crafts and ornaments

I have been doing some crafts this winter....well lets just day I buy the things and my mom and sister out them together for me. i am very handicapped when it comes to crafts and decor. So I purchased these materials and my mom made the ornaments and Keri put together the tree filled with ornaments. I just love them!! Thanks crafty girls!

Oh....nap time!

So I will tell you, the best time of my day is nap time! I am lucky enough to have them nap together for a little while and I am able to do something non-related with kids. But my second favorite time of the day is when I get them up! They dont sleep together but sometimes if they wake up at the same time and I will let them hang out in Levi's crib and they love it!!! So I had to take the photo op. So here are the naked shots:)
Levi just learned to say "CHEESE"
Does he not have the biggest eyes?!

Thanksgiving!

So Thanksgiving was fun. On Thursday we ate at Dan's mom's house and had the best food!!! She is one amazing cook! On Saturday we had a big thing with my family. We got there at like 11 and the guys put up my moms lights on house and then we waited for food!!! In the midst of stressful cooking and a full kitchen we started to smell smoke and my mom opened the oven to a cloud of smoke and finding out that someone had turned the oven up to 550 degrees! The fire alarm went off and everything. But the food wasnt ruined! So we sit down to eat and lucas was crying so I went onto another room to feed him and I hear everyone laughing their heads off. I come back and sit to only hear that the turkey my mom had cooked was 5 YEARS OLD!!!!! She had told everyoone not to eat the turkey after she had taken one bite and knew that it wasnt good. She was told it would be fine, but apperantly it was not! It was so funny because my mom usually doent really cook a big turkey or make a huge amazing meal for Thanksgiving and she tried really hard this year for the fam's sake. Everything else was so good though and we know that she tried really hard and love her for that! After dinner the girls headed off the Tai Pan for some decorative shopping and boy was it crazy! But we got some cute stuff! When we got home the boys took a break from the kiddos and went to see a movie. All in all we had a really good Thanksgiving this year. Thanks for the fun Thanksgiving mom!!
