The Past year...

Were to begin?
It all started off with Our little Autumn bug turning one. She sure has progressed so fast and learned all her fancy "tricks" from Hunter. Such as climbing furniture, biting!( which only lasted a short while thank goodness) She surly has kept us on our toes guessing what she might do next. Autumn has started talking up a storm and loves to be the "boss" in the family. Cracks me up when she tries to "mommy" Hunter.

In March Warren and I celebrated 5 years together! Oh how I Love that man! We whisked our kids away on a fun filled weekend at the Grandparents so we could be alone. Much needed recouping time if you ask me. It was the first time we had ever left the kids overnight besides the night we were at the hospital having Autumn ( in my book that totally does not count). We ate at fancy restaurants, took in the sites at the Renascence festival, went to an actual movie theater and walked around some shops on Mill Ave. Nothing spectacular but it was a blast to be able to walk hand in hand and enjoy our time together. And not worry about nap schedule's and diaper bags, ect...


Hunter turned 3 in June! He was really into Thomas the train this year so his party was ALL Thomas. He loves anything with a trailer and/or hitch. Loves the slide at the park and can't wait till he can join a soccer team. He is full of fun facts and loves to tell you all about the cars he sees as we drive in the car. He also received what I'm sure will be the first set of many stitches to come.

Our big family trip this year was to the great state of Washington. Seattle to be specific. Warren's sister lives there and quit a few of My extended family members. We had an amazing time and enjoyed the amazing weather over the fourth of July. I would love to make that an annual thing!

We camped and had a few family off road trip as is got a bit cooler out. Those trips sure are family favorites.

For Halloween  we were a family of super heros! We had an awesome time dressing up and attending our ward trunk or treat as well as going around the neighborhood. Both of the kids quickly learned if they said "trick or treat" people would give them candy! They were thrilled to say the least.

Thanksgiving through January seemed like a blur......... between having two thanksgivings one with family at my house and one in Tucson I was burnt out for sure. But then out of no where came building projects and then Christmas! Which by the way my ENTIRE family was in town for which was a blast! I happened to have laryngitis so i was VERY quite. They called me squeaky because that was the only sound i made for a hole week. I joking say that Warren my have asked Santa for a quit Christmas so he put me on mute :) Ha!

We then had our favorite visitors from Colorado around new years eve Brian and Christy Robbins! We had fun hanging out with them and winding down after the Holidays.

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas And a Happy New Year! We sure did!
