Christmas Time! December 1, 2011

We are really excited for Christmas. We have the tree up, Fireplace going, lights hung outside and counting down the days with a chocolate calendar! Davin is quite excited about christmas this year too. The commercials are definitely doing their job because he wants everything he sees on TV for Christmas this year. The night we put up our tree we read a christmas book as a family and it was talking about Santa living at the North pole. That confused Davin quite a bit. He looked at Steve and I and said "He doesn't live at the North Pole, he lives at the mall!" So cute! He helped decorate the tree and clumped all of his ornaments together in one place on the bottom! Steve surprised me last week with a Date night and Roses! He also hung all the christmas lights on the house while I was at work! We went out to Los Hermanos and went out shopping to get the rest of the kids christmas done! Thanks Grandma and Kate for watching the kids! Can't wait for Christmas!

Presley's Blessing November 26, 2011

With thanksgiving and all the family in town we tried to squeeze in as much as we could, including getting Presley blessed on Saturday. We did it at home, which made it possible for both of Steve's brothers that live out of town to be there. She wore my blessing dress that my Grandma Barker had made me! It wasn't too outdated and she looked adorable! She did so well during her blessing. I was a little nervous she would cry through it since she is on the older side (5 months :) but she did great and luckily she found her thumb right when they were starting! Steve did an amazing job and I am so lucky to have such a great husband and an amazing family!

Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a great thanksgiving weekend! We enjoyed thanksgiving, Steve ended up working so I headed to Heber after we ate at his family's house. Friday we had a little shower for my sister in law Lacey. She is having Twins! I hope tradition doesn't carry on in the family, now his brother and my sister both have twins! Of course I forgot my camera on thanksgiving so this is all i've got from Friday.

Chari is on the left and having her baby on December 5th. Lacey on the right due with twins in March.
