Getting Ready for Christmas

We are definitely getting in the holiday spirit. Our tree and stockings are up along with the rest of our decorations. And there is plenty of snow outside to make it feel like Christmas. One of my favorite parts of the holidays is the food, so I am already planning our yummy menu. I'm trying to keep it small because it will just be us this year.
Scott just started a new job on Monday so we won't be traveling for Christmas. He also has a teachers' assistant job on campus for next semester that he is looking forward to. We are so grateful for all of our blessings especially this time of year!!


Dallin was helping us with the lights and Scott thought it was more fun to put them on Dallin than on the tree.

Recipes Wanted

I am working on a project for Christmas that I can't say much about, but I need your help!! I am looking for some easy and delicious recipes. I could get some online but I don't have time to test them all. So I am looking for easy recipes that you have tried and that have been successful for you.

Main dishes, appetizers, casseroles, desserts or beverages are all welcome!!

Feel free to leave them in a comment if they are really short or email them to me at babygirl7_abc@yahoo.com

Thanks for your help!

Not Fun Being Sick!!

Just wanted to update everyone who has been asking about how Dallin is feeling. He finally was able to keep food in his stomach today after four days of vomiting and diarrhea. I have lost count of the number of loads of laundry I have done. He's been pretty much on a liquid diet per doctors orders. We are hoping he is over the worst of it and can try and get back to normal. He has been pretty chatty and playful today so that is better than sleepy and mopey. Thanks to all for caring how we are doing!! Hope everyone has wonderful plans for the holidays coming up!!

Happy Halloween!!

Scott and Dallin made a cute Winnie the Pooh and Tigger for Halloween!! Dallin loved his costume and enjoyed digging the candy out of his trick-or-treat bucket. I'm already excited about coming up with costumes for next year!!

Family Pictures

It was time for family pictures again and Dallin needed some 1 year pictures taken. A special thanks to our friend Kyla for taking them for us. We really appreciate it. They turned out great!!

Our Little Man!

Here is our little man in his finest moments. He is just so handsome, and I love all of these wonderful pictures. We wanted to share with all of you so you can see how our little boy is growing up.

Fun Date Night

We had a fun date night on Friday night. We decided to check out a new place in Rexburg called "The Craze Fun Zone". They have mini golf, laser tag, arcade games, and food. We had a good time playing mini golf and the arcade games trying to rack up tickets. The mini golf is an indoor glow in the dark course that was really fun. That is why the picture is so dark and hard to see.

Our favorite part was watching Dallin ride this horse. He absolutely loved it!!! And when it stopped he kicked it and started bouncing on it trying to make it start again.
