It's Snowing!!!

Yes I am still in Nevada and what to our wondering eyes should appear...SNOW! I cannot believe it is snowing! I am not going to lie, I didn't even know it snowed here. Brady and Easton are so excited. All they have done for the last hour is stare out the window. Here is my attempt at getting them to turn around and say cheese. They seriously could not stop staring for 2 seconds. They were saying cheese just the wrong direction!Here is a video for the family! Not too exciting but I know you love video and you can hear them talking! Sorry about my annoying commentary.This made me so excited to go to Utah where they will be able to play in the snow. I don't know if they will like it as much when they are actually in it though!

I left my suitcase in Nevada...

This is not a joke. When we headed to Utah for Thanksgiving we left in a hurry. Ryan got off earlier than expected and I was anxious to get on the road. The whole drive I could not shake the feeling that I had forgotten something. I was relieved when I realized it was just some pictures for Ryan's mom that I could bring later (or so I thought). We even joked with his family about always forgetting something and that I was glad it was not something more important. I had packed a separate bag with shoes, my "get ready" stuff, and the boys medicine. We got there late so I just grabbed that bag and we went to bed. The next day my sisters wanted to go running so I ran out to get my bag and when I opened the back of our car I realized...I LEFT MY SUIT CASE IN NEVADA. I had no clothes and no undies but I did have my shoe bag! I was so distraught. Luckily I have sisters I can share clothes with but it was still pretty traumatic. When we got home I had to laugh as I unpacked my suit case that never made it to Utah!

Happy Birthday Abbey!

Yesterday was my little sister Abbey's 21st birthday! Abbey is one of my best friends in the entire world. I can't believe we used to fight all the time and did not always get along. Now she is one of my favorite people to be with! She is the best aunt and adores my kids. I love you Abbey! I hope you had a wonderful day and know how much we love you!

Thanksgiving Fun!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was so fun for Brady and Easton to see their cousins. It is so nice that they are getting older and they are starting follow around the older kids and play! The first night we were there Brady and Easton got to take a bath with Broox and Cooper. These boys love my kids and it is so fun to see them all together. After a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at Grandma White's we had a big sleepover at Ryan's parents house. I am telling you, we have a family full of boys with a few girls thrown in!On Friday we headed to my parent's house to play with more cousins. Brady and Easton have an obsession with bathrooms and throwing everything in the bathtub. They escaped upstairs and this is what I found. Apparently the water did not get let out after their bath and we foun my mom and dads clothes, Kelsey's shoes and MAC makeup, and other special treasures in there. Good thing my mom has a sense of humor and laughed hysterically to the point she could not stand up. We love you mom!
I thought this picture was cute. They found Kelsey's shoes and hat and put them on. Thanks to everyone who made our trip a special one. We are excited to head back to Utah in a few weeks for Christmas!
