A little Christmas

Yes, that's right! We have three Christmas tree's this year and I love them all! The peacock tree is the tree we used since we were married and the tree topper is the mask Brice used at our wedding. The pink tree, daddy just had to buy for Hannah and was perfect for all my colorful ornaments. And Finally our 3rd tree has all of my lovely bird ornaments & is probably older than me .Thanks Cameron and Melissa for leaving it behind. I just love how they all turned out and I only spent $16 at the dollar store for extra ornaments for all the trees!

Time with Grandma

Brice's Mom was able to come and visit the weekend before thanksgiving. Hannah was in heaven and followed her everywhere. Hannah especially loves helping grandma with her make up and getting her nails done.

Cookies!

My little artist love to draw on just about anything but she especially loves decorating cookies!

Halloween 2009

Yeah for Halloween! This year because of Ben's love of watching Peter Pan and Hannah's love of Tinkerbell, we decided to do a family Peter Pan theme. If you haven't already guessed Brice was Captain Hook and I was Wendy. (Unfortunately due to $ constraints you will have to picture Brice with long curly hair. And there is no picture of my beautiful Wendy dress. It was blue.)

Early in the evening we went to our ward's Trunk or Treat and had a great time. My animated witches head was quite the "Hit" with the crowd.


We ended the evening by inviting ourselves to my brother Cameron's house for his birthday and had a great time hanging out with them and eating some great Chili. It was the first year in a while that cameron or I have not decorated my parents house. Next year Im hoping to be able to show you some great decor pics!

catching up!

What can I say, it's been 2 months since my last blog, and even as Im sitting here writing this Im thinking of all the things I should be doing instead. The past few months have been a crazy baby bootie making ride! Who knew making a few booties for friends would take over my life. Dont get me wrong, I am grateful for the overwhelming positive response and orders that Ive gotten since starting Peek a Boo Monkey, but man I wish those little things could just magically make themselves. So, the next few entries is my attempt to catch you all up a little on the few family things we've managed to get in.
