Snow Day

My brother and his wife moved back to Utah right after Thanksgiving. Their new place wasn't finished being built, so they have been staying at his in-laws cabin in Sundance. We decided to spend the day up there today while and had so much fun!! When the kids woke up we told them we were going to the cabin and they were running around like crazy kids while we got ready to head out.

The Stapley's cabin is beautiful!!

 Fern and Sydney were sweet enough to watch the kids while the four of us went Skiing. I haven't been since before Andy and I were dating... I held my own, but definitely was a little rusty. I am already sore and know tomorrow is going to be brutal! 

After skiing and the kids naps we all headed to Dairy Keen in Heber for some hamburgers and shakes. It was fun hanging with my brothers and reminiscing about the old times at Wolf Mountain. If only we had ended the day at Embassy Suites with Happy Hour and Hotel Tag :)

Thanks for a wonderful Snow Day!

Christmas 2013

Christmas this year was magical. It was so much fun being in California with the entire Bruce family. First time in three years we have all been together and all week long we played and laughed and ate and ate.

I bought this little German dress when I was in Study Abroad in Germany before we got married.  I have been patiently waiting for Jane to be old enough to wear it. She finally was tall enough and I knew Christmas Sunday would be the perfect debut :) She looked darling and it made the 7 years worth it.

 Christmas Eve... I can't remember why I took this picture... but this is Jane to a tee, so I posting it.

 Christmas was so much fun. Both kids were so excited and the best ages.

 Santa brought Lucas Star Wars toys and ships. Ever since Christmas morning Lucas still asks every morning if he can play. He loves them!

 Jane loved her Tangled castle and played with it all Christmas morning clapping after each time the horsie went down.

 I wrapped Lucas skateboard (one of two things he asked for!) in a box. When he opened it, he said I got a Box! And was so sweet and excited about it. Then when he opened it and saw his skateboard he was thrilled!!

 Jane being silly with her doggie purse...

 And the ninja costume... the other present Lucas asked for. When he opened it he said, "But it's not Halloween" and refused to even look at it. Once he opened all the ninja weapons he decided to put it on. He ran around for hours as a Ninja!

It was such a wonderful Christmas and I am so sad it is over!!
