Go, Idaho!

After the wedding, the boys and I hopped on a bus.

and we ended up in Idaho!

Fun with Gramma Grace, Papa Bruce and COUSINS!

We can't forget the cows,

or our redneck uncle Troy and his fox tails.

Eli "reading" the Book of Mormon before bed.

Christmas gifts - love those chaps! Now we are real cowboys!

The boys got to see Santa at the ward party in Idaho. Santa told Eli something special. He said, "Eli, I remember when your mom was your age and she sat on my knee too." It's true. I did. (I'll ask my mom to find the pictures.)

These two played together, a lot! They got to spend the day at the livestock auction with Papa and watch their cows be sold!

And I just love my boys.

Until next time...

Wedding!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 5k

It was a beautiful day!

A bunch of Goofs!

Evenings at home with nothing going on - best memories ever!

I've not been bored

Found a frame at a yard sale, painted it, and added flowers. Cheap decor above our bed.

15 Nativity Blocks for the YM/YW

A gift for Eli's teacher

A pinterest inspired project.

Another inspired project - the tree skirt.

Another inspired project.

Decor for Linds' bridal shower.

(want to know how long it took to make the rosette balls? i don't even want to talk about it...)
I think the polka dot garlands are my new favorite party decor.

I forgot to take pictures of the Christmas gifts I made...

Just wanted to make sure nobody thought I was twiddling my thumbs...and I read the Hunger Games series. So much better than Twilight. Though I am kind of disappointed about who she ends up with. I guess it's best for everyone, but I preferred the other. :(

I'm blogging...Gasp!

I still exist. Thing is - in the last 37 days, I've slept in my own bed 17 times. And we're not done traveling yet! Here's the breakdown.
