Merry Christmas!

I can't believe that Christmas has already come, and gone. I guess when you're the one stressing about the gifts, putting up the tree, wrapping everything, and doing everything that comes along with the holidays it comes a lot quicker than when you're a kid, waiting for Christmas morning to come.

December was filled with so many fun things. From our traditional family Candy Day, to fun days full of shopping with my hubby, to Pickeville Christmas plays. There is nothing better than a month full of fun activities!

Andrew was so much fun this year. He still doesn't understand the whole Santa thing.. but he absolutely loved opening all of his presents. Christmas is so special when you have a little one that gets so excited.

We spent Christmas Eve with my family in Logan. The night was full of so many fun things. We had a delicious turkey dinner, opened sibling presents, played bingo and played the almond game. The almond game is a tradition that we have done for years. We make homemade ice cream, and the person that has the almond in their ice cream wins an awesome prize! We also watched some old family videos of when we were little.


Christmas morning was so much fun. When we woke up, Andrew opened all of his presents from Santa, and he helped Steven and I open our gifts too! Then we headed up to my parents house to do gifts up there.




After we got ready for the day, we headed down to West Jordan to spend Christmas day with the Olsons. Stevens family got Andrew an awesome little car, that he LOVES!! It is so cool, because we can control it with a controller, or Andrew can drive it himself! He is going to have so much fun with his little car.



Hope you all had a Merry Christmas, and have a Happy New Year!!!

for the record

I HATE apartments. I am so happy to finally be back in Logan, but I absolutely hate living in an apartment. Don't get me wrong, they are decent apartments, but the people living above us drive me nuts. They are a bunch of young college guys, who seriously don't do anything all day. I can hear them ALL day long. Like go to work or something!!!!!!!!!!!! I constantly hear moving furniture, and it's always conveniently when I have just put Andrew down for a nap. It sounds like they rearrange their living room 10 times a day, and they are constantly sliding their kitchen chairs around on their tile!! GRR! I am a bit annoyed right now, if ya can't tell! So, for the record, I hate apartments, and I hope this is the last one I have to live in!!!!!!!!

if you give a moose a muffin....

This morning as my mom and I were on our way to get a diet coke, we noticed this cute guy!

I apologize for the poor photo quality, it was taken with my Blackberry

Too bad I didn't have any muffins to feed him :)
