YEAH SNOW!

Sledding is so much fun who would have thought that snow is only 45 minutes away from Las Vegas! It was the perfect day. The sun was shinning and it was like 55 degrees. You couldn't ask for a better day. Stella wasn't a big fan of the snow but she got use to it and was eating it by the end of our adventure. Sicily loved it and wasn't ready to leave, she loved running up and down the hill with her friends Marinda and Noah. Sophia was having a blast up and down up and down until she finally dropped!

Make a wish!

Sicily and Sophia were so excited that the wish bone from Thanksgiving was finally dry. They stood by the Christmas tree thinking of their wish and kept telling each other dont tell anyone your wish or it wont come true! So they faced each other with big smiles on their faces Sure that they were going to be the winner and thier wish was going to come true. they both pulled and it broke the top flew across the house and no one won. CRAP!!!

Downs Christmas Party

We had so much fun! I would have to say that making the ginger bread houses was the highlight of the night. I don't think that everyone quite knew what they were getting into, so it will be fun to see what happens next year ( I know that Tyson has already made the plans for his house for next year!) My girls had so much fun they didn't want it to end! We gave my niece Taylor The cutest shoes that squeak with every step that she takes. She was running around the house like the energizer bunny I didn't think that she was going to stop!

Sicily and Sophia's favorite part was making gingerbread houses.

And the winner of the Gingerbread house contest is

Trip to Utah

Oh the fun we had! I love to go back home specially in the winter it just screams CHRISTMAS! Its always fun to see my Friends and Family. The girls and I usually come up for a week during track break and stay the weekdays with BFF Aliea and the Weekends with Nana. Sophia loved going bowling she spanked everyone (big winner!). Sicily had a blast going to Classic Skating with her buddies Dax, Mikenna, and Tage. (Thank You Nattalie! She wont stop talking about it.) The Chambers girls and their bro Jensen came over on that Thursday night while we were making suckers. There is never a quiet moment when those guys are around. I think Stellas Favorite part was picking up her BFF Becky from the airport she couldnt control herself. Lets not forget about all the Fabulous stores they have there. Like Orsin and GyGi, All the quilt stores (way to many to name) Downeast homes, and Wood Connection. I cant wait to go back in the spring.
