Happy New Year 2019!

We had a fun New Year's party at Tricia's house with lots of games and yummy food! The kids had their own party downstairs and loved it.

Getaway in SLC

Adam booked a little getaway weekend in Salt Lake for one of my Christmas presents. We stayed downtown and went to see the lights at temple square. After we had dinner at Ruth's Chris, which was delicious!

We also had a couple massage and this yummy brunch. It was a super relaxing weekend and a nice little getaway!

Mickelsen Christmas

We spent the other half of our time with the Mickelsen's. We did our yearly tradition of reading the nativity story and having the kids dress up. Liam was Joseph and Gigi was a sheep.


Gigi had lots of sleepovers (which I didn't get pics of) and Liam had Dex over too.


Adam took the kids sledding one morning

And of course we had to get some Waffle Love! So good!!!

Christmas at Home

This year we went to Utah for Christmas so we had to open our presents early so I didn't have to bring them all with us! The night before the kids left this cute note for Santa...

Christmas Decor + Basement Pics!

I love decorating for Christmas every year, even if it is a lot of work! I love how special it feels and the sparkling lights throughout the house. Here's my decorations this year...

one of my favorite decorations is this little snowman that Gigi made a couple of years ago! She is quite the little artist!

And I finally remembered to take pics of our basement decorations...

love this little ceramic penguin that Gigi painted!

the gallery wall with some tinsel garland...

a little Christmas village on top of our entertainment center. The houses light up at night!

and of course I had to have a little Christmas tree to make it more festive!

So that's our home decorated for Christmas!
