Ok so who knows if anyone even checks this anymore since I've been terrible with blogging for the past 2 months. I actually was thinking of giving up on it cause I'm just so not motivated, but my brother on his mission informed he can look at blogs now, so I promised him I'd do one a week- that is one of my new years resolutions. The main reason I didn't want to keep it up was because of this one- the catch up post is always one I dread, but here goes.


The week of Christmas we actually got snow that stuck! I never thought I'd be so excited to wake up to snow covering the ground. We immediately got out what snow clothes I could find and went out before it all melted away. Thanks to our grass we had enough snow stick to make this snow man, the girls loved it since their favorite show at the time was Frosty. After scarping up all the snow in the backyard we decided to head up to the mountains with some friends to make the most of our fun snow day, cause if it's anything like last year there was only one and it didn't even last as long as this one.



Just when I thought we'd have our first Christmas alone, without any family Aaron's sister Rachel and her family said they would come down from Flagstaff. yeah! It was so great to have family here for Christmas especially since they were moving like 2 days after. Thanks for coming!


Maile loves to talk to everybody! No matter who it is or wherever we go she's always looking for someone who will listen. So obviously when it's her turn to talk to Santa I have to cut it short because she could be up there all day. Although it was funny the 2nd time she sat on his lap she kind of panicked cause she knew she had forgotten something on her list when she sat on his lap the 1st time, so for a moment she was speechless, but then it all came to her and she couldn't stop.Just look at how chubby those cheeks are! She is perfectly square under her chin because they hang down so low. Oh they are so kissable I love 'em!
