Dance!
Emma and Regan's Christmas recital at their studio was SO cute! They put them in adorable costumes (Emma didn't love her antlers:) and taught them fun little routines.
Regan was just SO excited because it was her turn to preform! Regan sang along with every song while she danced and Emma's favorite part was showing off her cartwheel!
Thanks to all who came...we love you!

Mom, I'm like, kinda famous!!!
That's what Emma said at her performance in the Nutcracker last weekend!
She LOVED the stage and thought it was so fun to be in the same show as her aunt Kassady!
What made it more special was that her all of her grandparents, aunt Alexa, and even her kindergarten teacher were able to come see her!
These are pictures form the dress rehearsal since no camera's are allowed during the actual show.

Finally...A Light Parade!
We had a great time at the Phoenix Light Parade! We got there with plenty of time to eat dinner, drink hot chocolate, people watch, play in the street, go to the bathroom, drink more hot chocolate, play with glow sticks...etc!
We sat at the end of the route and it only took 1 1/2 hours for it to finally reach us, but it was a fun night with our friends, the Nielson's (or '' the Alyson's" as Emma likes to call them)...
worth the drive and the freezing cold!

A Magical Night
@ the train station & gift shop
photo op with the Polar Express!
waiting for the magic
Oh my word! The train is coming!
YAY! We are going to see Santa!
Ready to get n the train...
Here it comes!!...
It's here!
In our jammies, on the train.
Looking out the window at the North Pole & waving to Santa.
A bell from Santa's sleigh!
On the way home from Utah we stayed in Flagstaff and went for a ride on The Polar Express!! We got the girls all bundled up and told them we were going to see some lights and maybe get a treat-- when we walked by all the trains and into the station/gift shop that was full of kids in pj's and everything having to do with trains they were still oblivious!! It started to snow about the time we were to board so we headed outside and until Emma heard, then saw the lights on the train pulling into the station she didn't have a clue! Her reaction was one of my favorite 'mom memories' because she was speechless and then just in awe of all the 'magic'! We had so much fun and it was a great way to start celebrating Christmas.

Grandpa's 80th bday celebration
love these boys!
We had such a fun trip in Utah Thanksgiving weekend...we got to relax, be a part of Weston's blessing, and celebrate my awesome grandpa's birthday! We had so much fun seeing my aunts and uncles and the girls LOVED that we were staying at the same hotel as their great-grandparents!
Every Year...
we visit the cul-de-sac in my parent's neighborhood to see ALL the lights! Every house is covered and has a different theme and the kids love it! Of course, none of the pics I took with actual lights in them turned out great, but here are the ones that did!

shiny & sparkly
...that's what the girls said when our tree was all done...(for now- is my tree ever done? No...I add to it every time I go to the store!)
Pictures never do a tree justice, but I love how it looks in the dark.

**the last picture (doves on the heart) is of the first ornament Brady and I got in Branson, Missouri...I love it because he chose it and it goes in the front of our tree every year...thank goodness he chose one that matches the different colors I do every year!!**
