Let It Snow!!

Michael decided that he was going to buy himself a snowblower for his birthday this year.  Well he ordered it from Sears and we were waiting for it to come.  A week ago we got a phone call that the snowblower that he had ordered was no longer available and that he could upgrade for free.  So he pulled up the upgrade online and compared the two.  An upgrade was for sure on its way...this thing was so much better than the one he had ordered.  Sears said it would be here on the 16th and sure enough it was here.  Everyday leading up to it coming he kept saying "I sure hope it doesnt snow before the 16th, I dont want to have to shovel."  It snowed the night before it arrived...HA HA..luckily for him it all melted before he got home..he has the luck!!  He was so excited when it snowed today and he could use his NEW snowblower.  This thing has all the bells and whistles...headlights...hand warmers...powered chute...you name it its got it!!  All I can say is he is spoiled!!!  Love you babe Happy Late Birthday!!

Family Pictures

This photo album made with Smilebox

We finally had our Family pictures taken. We needed them done so bad.  We love how they turned out and hope you will agree.

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Tree

So this year we decided that we were going to change the Christmas tree up a bit.  We have all glass ornaments on the tree and most of them we have had since we got married.  In years past we have had Gold and White and Magenta and Pink glass bulbs on the tree.  This year we changed and went with Red and Gold and White glass bulbs on the tree.  We have always had hand blown glass hearts and humming birds which we used again this year.  It turned out so good.  We have enjoyed decorating our new house.  Its always fun to start with a new canvas and get out of the same old rut.  We hope all of you are ready for Christmas and are excited for the Holidays like we are!! 

Crazy Frontrunner Trip

Last weekend Michaels family all decided to go on Frontrunner and ride to Salt lake and eat lunch and then come back.  Now if anyone knows Michaels family they know that they are always running late and it is always crazy.  Well this trip was as normal.  We were all to meet at the Ogden station at 1:00 pm to catch the 1:15 train.  Well we had to beg the engineer not to leave because grandma was on her way and was just pulling into the parking lot.  We all safely got on the train there was about 30 of us.  It was a fun little ride the kids had fun hanging out with their cousins.  We got to Salt lake and the craziness continued.  We decieded to eat at Applebees all of us!!  Needless to say it was the slowest lunch we have ever had, I think Applebees was in shock over how many of us there was.  It was a long day I think next time we will just drive and meet everyone down there. 

Pumpkin Patch

Last week we went to a Pumpkin Patch in Hooper.  We went with my parents and my sister and her kids.  It was so fun..it was $5 for an armful.  So of course all the men thought that they had to be tough and carry as many pumpkins as they could.  We got 12 pumpkins in all and only paid $15 for all of them.  They werent little ones either they were all good sized pumpkins.  We will for sure go to the same patch next year!!

Halloween Cookies!!!

A few weeks ago we decorated sugar cookies for Family Home Evening.  We had a lot of fun.  The twins are very creative and did such a good job.  Jex enjoyed eating the cookies.
