Burr baby, it's COLD outside.

Seriously?..

So HJ has this boarderline OCD obsession with removing things from the cupboards and placing them somewhere else. (Refer back to my blog post about the tupperware.) Well the other night, as I'm trying to make dinner, he decided to get adventurous and actually climb up in the cupboard and remove all the pots and pans.

That face gets me every time.

He always acts like he's so busy..

Checking each piece out before he moves it somewhere else.

Then this is where it gets really funny. Not only did he move the pots to the little table at the end of the hall, but he was able to balance it such an amazing angle. How it stayed that way? I have no clue.


It makes me wonder if this is normal, of if I have a "special spirit".

Thanksgiving

Better late than never, right?

This year we went down to central Utah to hang out with my dad's side of the family. It was a lot of fun to see Henry play with a bunch of his cousins, and to see some family members that I haven't seen in quite awhile.

My handsome boys.

I was cracking up over this. Jordyn apparently has some weird thing where she has to touch Melissa's cheek to go to sleep. I guess whatever helps!



Chanley with her boyfriend Ryan.





Typical Henry J and mooching off of Aunt Rach's plate.





My dad rockin a serious heart bolo tie. (Can you tell yet where I get my humor from?)


(Don't mind how unflattering this shot is..)

So I am a pretty competitve person, and I could NOT win a game of Bingo even if my life depended on it. So I finally resorted to 2 game cards, and got my big win!

Playing with the big kids!

Reality Check.

You ever have one of those days where every time you look down

you see a crying baby reaching up to get your attention?

Or when you finally get the house cleaned, and as soon as the baby wakes up your hard work goes to a disaster zone within a 5 minute span?

Yeah. Me too.

Cupcake Time!

So if you know me at all, you know that I have an obsession with cupcakes. I have experimented with lots of different flavors (pumpkin chocolate chip seems to be the crowd favorite) but never really tried to decorate cupcakes. My friend Jackie and I decided to take a class together it was a lot of fun!

This is a poinsettia flower made out of gum and m&m's!

Turkey! Gobble Gobble!

The quality of pics is not great, I forgot my camera so I used my phone.

Christmas Tree!

Jackie getting all the frosting ready.

Nic's Baby Shower

This lil momma is about ready to have her second baby in a couple weeks, so Lana and I wanted to throw her a shower. It was a nice day filled with LOTS of food and good conversation!

Orange Dreamsicle cupcakes with a "G" for Georgia!

Our fun little paper decorations.

Chicken salad sandwiches with a candy bar.

A chocolate fountain with all the yummy dipping foods.

Don't think we weren't going to do this once everyone left..

Halloween 2010

This year, HJ was probably the cutest giraffe you've ever seen. He really struggled with the costume, so I had to keep popping smarties in his mouth to keep him from pulling it off. We stopped by Champ's house to get some pictures and to go trick or treating together.

Really embarassed that he can't be something cool like Champ and his parrot costume.

To pay me back, he refused to walk the entire night. Of course he wants to walk every where he cant, and as soon as I give him free reign he has to be held.

Little momma's with their babies.

He finally started warming up to the idea of grabbing candy out of a bucket towards the end of the night. So much fun!



Sad face!

Glad to finally be going home and out of that dang costume!
