Thanksgiving and Black Friday

Well the Thanksgiving started out with a bit of a let down cause my family was supposed to fly in but because of the weather they could not. So last minute we were stuck with nowhere to go for turkey day. Luckily our Bishop was having something for those that were not going out of town, so we went to that. IT WAS AMAZING!! Bishop Lamb has a PHD in meat or something like that. He cooked 2 smoke turkeys and they were DELICIOUS! After that we can and put the girls down for their naps and we played games with Kelsey.
Later that night we went to stand in line at walmart for black friday sales. It was 9 degrees outside so Jason and I took turns standing outside while the other sat in the car and got warm. We got there at 7:30 and the doors opened at 10pm. But stupid walmart wouldnt let you take anything of the shelves till 12:01am. I was so mad, in fact, I yelled at 2 managers. Why the crap did they let us stand outside and freeze if they knew we would not even have an advantage. Oh well, we got all we wanted from there and thats all that matters. Sam and Danny met us there at about 9:30 and when we got done with walmart they guys went home to sleep while Sam and I went to Idaho Falls and did some more shopping. We stayed out way too late and spent way too much money, but we had A BLAST! It was so much fun and we got some great deals. It was a great weekend! I was sad my family could not come but spending money made me feel a little better.
We got a ton of snow from the blizzard in Utah and Addyson had a blast playing in it.
We found a tree for 25 bucks at target on sat so we set it up on Sunday. Addyson loves it! When we turn on the lights she cracks up and dances around and says"free"(Tree). She loved helping Daddy put the ornaments on. She is stinkin cute. Here are some pics.

We had so much fun this year taking Addyson trick or treating !! She loved it! Thursday our gym had a trunk or treat and lots of fun activities. Addyson had a blast! The city of Rexburg had a fire truck out there and Addyson would not stop staring at it. Everywhere we walked she had her eyes glued to that thing. Which in turn caused her to fall several times and run into all the kids in front of her. Friday night we went to Melaleuca. They have a big party every year. She just loved gettting candy from everyone. And saturday night we went to our old wards trunk or treat. IT WAS HUGE! We got to see lots of people from our old ward. We had a blast! Saturday during the day we had our 2nd annual pumpkin carving party with Mitch and Melanie. The Taits joined us this year too! We had so much fun and everyone's pumpkin looked awesome!! It was a long weekend  but we had so much fun. Here are some pics from our fun filled weekend!

WOW! It's been a long time

I had no clue that it has been like 4 months since i last posted something. We have a lot of catching up to do. July, August and september flew by. We had both Jason's and Addyson's birthday. Addyson turned 2 and Jason 26. I post pics of Addyson's party but not Jason's. We had a fun little get together with a few friends. Sydney turned 2 months old. She is such a sweet little baby and we love having her in our family.

August we got to go down to Salt Lake and see my good friend Katie Jackson and her family. It was alot of fun. We also got to see my other Tory and her family while we were there. It had been like 5 years since i had last seen Tory. It was so nice to get together with Kate and Tory and have a our kids play together.

September was a treat! Not only was it my birthday and my husband bought me great gifts, but my mom and sister came to visit me for a WEEK!!! We had so much fun together! My mom took us to yellowstone too! That was so cool. We had a blast there and got a lot of cool pictures.

October has been more relaxed. Sydney turned 5 months!! I can't believe she is so big! Addyson LOVES her sissy or Nenny  as she calls her. They are so cute together. Addyson loves to make Sydney laugh. It is a treat to watch them together.

Here They Are!!!

Addyson turns 2!

I can't believe i have a 2 year old!!! It is crazy to me how fast time has flown!  She is so big and a personality as big as the the sky. She is talking alot more now. She love to read and sing. She is constantly walking around with a book in her hand. She LOVES babies! Ever since Sydney came home she will wrap anything she can find up in a blanket and put it in her highchair or Sydney's swing. She is so cute! She refuses to go to sleep or take a nap unless you read her book " You are special".I just love this little girl more thank anything.

Addyson I want you to know how much we love you. You are such a joy to have in our family. I never understood love until I had you. Now i understand the love that Heavenly Father has for all his children.I feel so blessed that he trusts us enough to send you to our family.  You are so smart and so funny. I just love to watch you learn and grow.   I hope you had a wonderful birthday. We love you so very much.
