christmas goodies . . .


Last week we got together at Ty & Amber's house with Lauren & Deven & Pierce & Amelia to make some popcorn treats for some friends for the holidays. We made 3 batches each of caramel popcorn and a yummy white chocolate peppermine recipe of Amelia's. We became pro's at it and are now considered professionals



































This is what the boys did while we did all the hard work. . . watched the jazz game and played tennis on the Wii. No help!

Longggggg Overdue

I'm probably the WORST person ever at blogging I have decided. I think one reason might be that I'm not exactly sure how to still work everything to do with blogging. I still don't know how to add friends to the side of the page, and for that reason I think that nobody knows we have a blog. So why blog if the only person that is going to read it is your mom? ha

You would think that my life is completely boring and that I have absolutely nothing to write about, but that's not entirely true. Since my last post....in MAY...ha....Tom has started going back to school (so exciting!), we have moved (we now live in the middle of a sheep farm, no joke), and we are having a baby!

A baby girl to be exact and the time is soon approaching. Only 9 weeks left! I'm going just a little bit crazy. My mom always says that my life is about to change and I don't doubt it. It's no longer about me ha which is going to be a harsh reality I'm sure. ANYWAYS we are VERY VERY VERY excited and can't wait to meet this little girl. We are still not sure on a name. Unfortunately we had a million bazillion boys names picked out and not a single girl name on our list. We've narrowed it down to about 2 or 3 names that we like but we're still not sure. I always thought I would be one of those people that would know way in advance what I was going to be naming my child. But I was wrong. Who knew that could happen? ha

Here's just a few pictures to catch all of you (mom) up to date for the past 7 months:


I turned 23 - wahoo!

Tom and I found a new favorite pizza place in Park City called Maxwell's and took Lar & Devan and had a blast! (obviously, since we're in bobsled)

We went on a date night and I made an elephant piggy bank for the soon to be little girl and Tom made a huge mug that he uses for cereal because he would always steal mine.

Tom still loved to play sports any chance he can get.

Tom turned 26- what an old man!

We all dressed up as Swamp People (aka white trash) for Halloween. If you haven't seen the show Swamp People - you should probably now take the opportunity to catch up on what you've been missing out on. It's about people who hunt alligators. ha

This is our little girl at 25 weeks with her legs all stretched up to her face :)



I still have the cutest nieces in the whole world. This picture was taken at the celebration of my mom's parents, Gigi & Grandpa Bob's, 60th wedding anniversary!


And....this is me at 30 weeks prego

I almost forgot something very important- we also played on an Orem city kickball league this fall and we were pretty much amazing. We were the only team that was undefeated before the championship.

Just to let you know how terrible I am at blogging - this blog took me an hour to complete. That's probably why I NEVER blog!
