Lunch with our American Girl Dolls

Both the girls got a coupon to go eat lunch at the American Girl Doll store during Christmas break.  The only time we could get in was on New Years Eve!  The girls were so excited.  We invited Kambree's friend Kayley Raleigh to come with us!  They all loved the store and wanted everything in it and the lunch was fun and yummy!

Emily's Temple night

 Emily's day landed on a Sunday so we headed to the Temple on Saturday night.  Always a joy to be with people I love serving in the Temple. Its a nice tradition and a nice way to remember Emily! 

I love this picture of her. It captures her personality so well.  The Christmas before she died we spent countless hours crafting.  She was giving homemade gifts to everybody.  Memories I treasure and crafts I still love and display today!!

The day after Chirstmas

We have been have incredible weather for this time of year.  Its been so warm.  The day after Christmas we all headed outside to play.  It was so nice and warm.  I was even wearing flip flops!  we all loved playing outside for a few hours!!  Nothing better!

CHRISTMAS!!

Christmas morning is always filled with excitement.  Thankfully our kids still sleep until a decent hour {7:30am}.  With the exception of Krayton.  He woke up at 4am, came into our room and kept saying Christmas over and over again.  I was not thrilled about that.  I gave him a movie and fell back to sleep!  Only on Christmas!!  All the kids were happy and loved spending the day playing with their new things!

 

it was a fun filled day at home!
