We had a great time putting up our Christmas tree the day after thanksgiving I thought I would take a picture to remember how pretty it is before all the bulbs get taken off and hidden all over the house like easter eggs

My goal is to some day have a mantle to put our stocking on so I don't have to nail them to the wall

Everyone in our family got a little gingerbread house to put together this year it was so much fun. Brownie points to anyone how can guess who made each one.....hint Mommy made Alivia's as well as her own.

Alivia Had a Dr.'s appointment today she is in the 50% for her weight, and at her last appointment she was in the 10% she is growing very fast. She is only in the 10% for her height so she might have to borrow some shoes from her aunt Audrey when she grows up.

Daddy did the girls hair for church all by himself. He was so proud when Eva told him It looked just like when Mommy did it.

The princess jammies are a staple in my girls wardrobe they are rarely seen inside our house without them. I think they get it from their Mommy. The other day I got up and got dressed right away ( instead of at noon) and Eva kept asking where I was going. She didn't understand why I would get dressed without a good reason.

Good odd goings on

We made turkey shaped cookies using the girls hands as a template. Eva was so sad when we pulled them out of the oven and they no longer were the same size as her hand

Nate brought home some flower for me when I was having a bad day and said I think this will be as fun for you to put together as it is for me to put together a lego kit. I love arranging flowers I miss my old job at the reception center doing flowers for weddings.

Emmie found this tutu and thought it would make a better veil

Alivia is starting to smile and coo so much, it melts my heart. She dose seem to smile more for daddy then mommy

Emmies first dry all night diaper, Hurray hurray Its a beautiful day

For Nate's family Halloween party I dress up like my sister in law Audrey. She has a black eye right now from a bad seizure fall. She seems to have a lot of bruises this year so I was teasing her a little:) Intimation is the best form a flattery right.
The girls enjoyed New Mexico's first snow of the session It lasted almost 10 whole minuets
Nanna and Grandpa got into the Halloween spirit this year
My sister Liz had a baby 4 weeks to the day from Alivia. His name is Corben Keith. We have been calling them Twin cousins
Eva really wanted to be a witch this year so I made matching outfits for Eva and Emmie and Emmie refused to ware Hers so she wore one of the many Princess dresses we already own
Alivia was a candy corn this year. I made this for Emmie when she was a baby but sadly she got croup around Halloween and didn't get to use it. Last year I wanted her to be Tinker bell we got a beautiful expensive dress from the Disney store and she went as Snow White. Do you see a pattern I don't think she likes the costumes I pick. Say la ve
Are ward goes to MaCalls Pumpkin Patch ever year this is the first year we have gone, Nate even had the day off so he could come with us. It was great!!! They had a petting zoo, hay rides, lots of games, and my favorite FUDGE. The girls helped carve there pumpkins that they got at the pumpkin patch. Eva wanted a scary one and we made Emmie's as happy as we could because she was so upset that we were stabbing and gutting her pumpkin.
