Snow Day!

We took a drive up to Mt. Charleston the other day to introduce McKenna to the cold white stuff! Natually she loved it! and wanted to eat it! Of course I let her! What kid doesn't like to eat snow! It was good times!

Then we went to her Papa's house where she was lovin on their stuffed bear! She kept pulling it around the house then she would lay on it! So cute!

Bruised head!

Ugghhh.. I will really be happy when that bruise in the middle of her forehead is gone! She had a big one the side that went away then she hit the wall again! or something who knows! Very clumsy stage she's in right now!

Granola Bar Happy!

My adorable little princess loves the pantry! She found the granola bars and had a party with them!It was messy, but hey sometimes ya just gotta let em! She had a load of fun for10min! haha

I love it!!!!!

Okay not to be biased... BUT how freakin ADORABLE is this little girl This is my favorite pic!!! I finally captured her doing what she does best laughing and smiling! This was the day after her b-day when she ran circles around the house trying to figure out which toys to play with!And there's ALot with it just being Christmas and all! But I'm on top of it and put a few away to bring out later!

She has to have her bankie!!! oh bankie! She loves the silkies!

Birthday Cake! yummmmy

So first of all sorry about my half naked daughter.. but this was the only way to do the bday cake! She was a lil apprehensive at first then mom showed her how its done and then she dug in! whew what a mess tho! and guess who cleaned most of it? my father-in law! yay! It was good times!

Our Baby Girl is 1!!!!!!!!!

McKenna's 1st birthday was a blast! Lots of friends and family were there with her to share her special day! My parents even drove down from Az and brought Hunter!!!!!!!! It was great to see my bud! As you can see my cousin Caitlin's bff Lisa dressed up as strawberry shortcake for McKenna! She was speechless! The kids loved it!

This pic is all of McKenna's "girlfriends" from left Emma, Audrey, McKenna, and Jordan!

Temple Lights

So when is it ever REALLY cold in Az! Oh..I know Christmas 08! Dang it was cold! So we bundled up lots and went to the Mesa Temple! It's decorated with billions of lights! It was beautiful! You can just walk the grounds and look! They even have the nativity scene set up! It was really impressive and they fund it themselves.. it's free! And there were LOTs of people there! That will be a new family tradition!
