Wild Adventures

Ethan and I got the chance to go as leaders on the Jr.High reward trip to Wild Adventures! We had a great time! Abby went and it was fun being with her. Ethan and I met on a Jr.High reward trip 6 years ago. I made sure that Abby didn't get anywhere near any of the boys :) Just kidding! Here are some pictures from the trip!

The oh so fun bus ride :)
Saturday when we woke up it was COLD and wet. This picture of Bro. Jeff walking to the bus cracks me up :)

Some of the cutest kid's I know!
The ski cleared up but it stayed cold.

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party

Ethan and I headed down to Disney with his family a few weekends ago. We went to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. We had a great time! There were hardly any lines and or course everything looked beautiful for Christmas! Here are some pictures from the trip!

Side Note: The pictures are not in order.

The Saturday after Thanksgiving Ethan and I went to get our first Christmas tree! You should have seen us trying to decide which one to get and which one would fit in out house :) I finally decided which one I liked the best and we loaded it up in the truck! It was fun putting it up while watching a Christmas movie! We were both very proud of the way it turned out! Pretty good for our first one!

Our where abouts....

I wanted to give an update on some of the things that have been going on. I thought I would show you through pictures!


I just thought this picture was sweet! Pop Pop reading to James!
James's dedication at church. I love this sweet boy!

Very proud parents!


After the dedication we went to Johnny's
I asked James to say cheese and this is what I got :)

Playing with Uncle Ethan. James has learned that he can get just about anything he wants for his Uncle Ethan :)
On Veterans Day Amber, My mom, Abby and myself met up at the Mall so I could shop for a dress to wear at my best friends wedding. We were successful in our mission and James was a very good sport! Here he is waiting for his lunch in the food court.


My grandparents got Ethan and I this Kitchen Aid mixer as our wedding gift. I used it for the first time last Thursday night and I love it! I don't have the room to leave in on my counter so I forget that I have it. Well, I went to make some cookies on Thursday and realized that I needed a mixer and that is when I remembered that I had it! Thank you Nana and Papa for such a great wedding present!!
One a year Ethan's family hosts a big party out at their house for all the people that live and grew up in their area. There is tones of food and it is all so yummy! I enjoyed getting to met lots of people that I hadn't met before and seeing people I had! The weather was perfect for an outside party! Here is a picture of Ethan and I that his cousin Cody took. Thanks Cody!
