Family Pictures

We had some family pictures taken and I just wanted to post some. There are a ton and so I'll post as many as I can right now while Jack is sleeping.

Savannah's Birthday

We had a great time during Savannah's birthday this year. On the day of her birthday we had breakfast, letter pancakes of coarse:), and then I took cupcakes into her school that day, which she loved. Then we opened presents, and had pizza. The next day we had her party. We had it at our neighborhood playground and amenity center. We had about 15 kids, 38 total people show up. It was such a fun party with playing on the playground, games, a pinata, presents and cake. We had a great time celebrating our little girl in our life!

Breakfast in bed, Jack wanted to join her too:)

Her class singing Happy Birthday to her.

Enjoying her party.
Jack enjoying his cupcake too.
Talking to people on the phone, one of the many joys of the birthday girl.

The birthday cake, before the party.

A closer look, yea, it took me awhile, but I am happy with how it turned out.

Pictures of the festivities.

One of her presents that she wanted so bad:) She already rides it great too.

And, since she got a new one, Jack got the old one. Good thing a pink and purple Princess scooter is better than no scooter for a little boy:)

Aren't they just so cute:)

Christmas, one of many to come:)

We had a fabulous holiday season. It started early with decorating the house and cookies. We had our Christmas at our house early this year due to our trip to California. We had a great time fitting in our own little family traditions. Then we headed off to CA where we dropped the kids off with Grandpa and Grandma and Dan and I took off to Vegas! It's the first time I've been away from the kids ever, and it was needed:) We had a great couple of days there and fit in a ton before heading back to CA for Christmas. Most of Dan's family came and we had a great time. Here are some pics to highlight the adventure!

Here is Savannah "putting up lights" on the play house.

Friends in Utah

Along with going to the wedding in Utah we were able to spend some time in Utah with friends.

These first few are from our BYU ward. The girls were all in the RS presidency, minus one, and the boys were in EQ or Bishopric. We had a blast seeing each other. We all had boys within 10 days of each other and so it was fun to see them all grown.

Then we stayed at a friend's house that night that Dan grew up with. Savannah had a blast dressing up with Camry and we had fun seeing everyone again.

The next day we stopped by BYU to revisit the olden days, and I was ready to leave soon after we got there when Dan said it made him want to go back to school again! It was beautiful though and it was nice to stock up on BYU gear again.

Oh, the memories in that library.

Look at the beautiful colors. We don't get that in FL.

Good old Rock Canyon:)

That night we were able to visit the friends that moved to Utah from FL. It was so great to see them and catch up on what they were doing.

Overall we had a great trip and loved seeing everyone.
