Christmas

Christmas was so much fun this year. Sheridyn was so excited and it made Christmas so magical. Christmas Eve we went with my family to dinner at Applebees then we went swimming at a hotel where my brother works and played some games and Sheridyn and Jaylee did a little dance. It is so cute how Jaylee wants to be just like Sheridyn and she got up in front of everyone and just bounced to the music it was darling. Then in the morning Santa brought Sheridyn a pink four-wheeler and Jaylee a pink coupe car. Sheridyn has been asking for a pink four-wheeler for a couple of months so we thought she would be so excited but of course she went right for the pink coupe of Jaylee's and they have been fighting over it ever since. Haha what a morning! So after we saw what Santa brought we headed over to my parents house for opening presents and we stayed there all day. We really had a good Christmas this year and yes we got way to much stuff for Sheridyn and Jaylee they are so spoiled but we wouldn't have it any other way!



Easter Dresses

These girls were such troopers! They were so good and I got some way cute pics of them in their Easter dresses.

Check out the cute shoes!




Jaylee was done!

Cute Picture


We went up to a wedding in Bountiful this weekend and got this adorable picture of the girls. I just had to post it. So precious.

First Day of Preschool

Sheridyn started Preschool yesterday! She was sooo excited. She has the cutest teacher and they read the "Kissing Hand" story. She put a little heart stamp on their hands and told them if they kiss the heart it will go right to their mommy. Then if they put the heart on their cheek it was their mom giving them a kiss. Well Sheridyn had red heart smudges all over her cheek so she must have needed lots of kisses! They baked cookies in the shape of hands and put hershey's kisses in the middle of them. It was so much fun she loved all of it. Jaylee and I on the other hand missed her a lot. We went grocery shopping and did some errands around town to try to keep our minds off of it. I was a little teary watching her go, she is growing up way to fast! I want to keep her home in our little bubble, but I know she is ready to start school :(

These are so fun pictures I took of them on Labor day.


Hawaii Vacation

James and I left the girls with my parents (thank you!) and went to Maui Hawaii for a week! It was sooo beautiful and relaxing. We had such a great time. We also celebrated out 9 year anniversary while we were there. Wow time goes by fast!
Our condo was right by the ocean. We had an amazing view from our patio it was so gorgeous. We did a lot of snorkeling and got to swim right next to some huge sea turtles! It was so awesome.

"Sea Turtle"

James had a blast snorkeling and body boarding. One day the waves were huge and he was playing in them all day until his board broke!
I loved just laying on the beach reading a book!

"The Road to Hana" this is a windy long road that drives through the tropical rainforest of Maui. There were so many beautiful sites to see including a black sand beach and huge waterfalls! One of which James and I jumped off of.


These are called "Rainbow Trees" they were so cool!
Climbing through the bamboo to get to some waterfalls.
This was the night James and I decided to follow a trail that went over some rocks and then opened up to a beautiful little beach. We sat down on the rocks and started watching the sunset and noticed some surfers. As they got closer we realized the were nude surfers!! AAHHH little did we know we had wondered onto an unofficial nude beach. Pretty embarrassing!

Best snow cones in the world! The "Local Boys" put ice cream in the bottom and yummy cream on top they were to die for. We ate one like every day we were there!
The sunsets were spectacular. They all looked like a postcard!

We went to the "Drums of the Pacific Luau" it was so incredible. The food was great but the entertainment was even better. They had an amazing show with fire dancers and everything. We loved every minute.

Snowmobiling

This weekend we went snowmobiling up to our cabin. I was a little nervous about how the girls were going to act since this was their first snowmobiling trip, but they loved it! I think they are used to riding four-wheelers and the Rhino since pretty much birth so it didn't even faze them. In fact they both loved it so much they fell asleep on the ride. It was such a beautiful day up there and there was tons of snow at the cabin. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for letting us borrow the snowmobiles we made some great memories this weekend.

This is the back door to our cabin. Look at all the snow!


This is Jaylee all sprawled out when she fell asleep! She was out!
