:::A day to GiVe ThAnKs::: 2010

Thanksgiving this year was a little crazy! The hubby and I were brave enough to do it at my house this year with my dad's side of the family. It's a good thing Dani was here to help us get everything ready. I do have to say how proud I am of us...we did cook the turkey all by ourselves with a little help from the Internet. We were a little nervous at how it would turn out, but man...all I have to say is WE ARE GOOD! It turned out awesome. Nice and moist. It was great. We also made about five pies, and the stuffing. Everybody else brought something so we didn't have to do it ALL, thank goodness! Keeping a house clean, renting tables and chairs and setting up was enough. I think we did pretty good. I think Dani and I went to Wal mart a dozen times because we kept forgetting stuff. Like on Wednesday night at 12:30 in the morning running to the store to get a turkey bag...yeah! It sure was fun though. I think everything turned out pretty good! Lots of yummy food and great company...what more can ya ask for? I am so glad Dani and her adorable family could come to Utah to celebrate with us. It wouldn't have been the same without them! It was so sad to see them leave. So all in all it was great...and now I am glad that I will never have to host again...Hahaha...hopefully!!

Saydey went on a field trip to the local fire station. Oh she was so excited to see the fireman and the cool firetruck and ambulance. She has been learning fire safety in school so she told me all about it. It was so fun to watch her be so excited. Every time we see a firetruck or ambulance or cop for that matter she is the first to spot it. I just am glad that I get to go to on these little field trips that mean so much to them when they are little. I am glad you had so much fun Saydey girl! I just LOVE being this little girls mom!

The fireman showed them how to get low and crawl when there is smoke...so cute!

Saydey listening so carefully.

All of them on the front of the big firetruck! Saydey LOVED it!!

Thank you to all the FiReMeN!!

:::DiSnEy on IcE:::

My sisters and I took the kids to Disney on Ice, and they loved it! We decided to go last minute and are sure glad we did. It was fun and they were all so good. They did HAVE to have a snow cone in a freakin $15 dollar cup and 10 dollar cotton candy, but hey it's part of the experience, right? It was worth it though and the kids won't forget it! After we went to Applebee's for some good grub. Of all days we go up when it is snowing so that was sure fun!! Anyway...they loved it, I loved it, and we will go again next year!

All the fun characters...

One lost tooth and theToOtHfAiRy...

One week ago today, Jaydyn lost her first tooth. I think it's weird. She is too little to be loosing teeth already! I didn't think this would happen for awhile. Now her whole look is going to change...now that she is loosing teeth. I don't know if I am ready for that. She also has two more teeth that are loose. So weird my little girl is growing up right before my very eyes! She is so BIG!!!

Grandpa Bert was the one who pulled it out. She couldn't take it anymore...she wanted that tooth out. So grandpa got a string...(well, that's what we looked for and couldn't find, so we used one of my extra extensions. We pulled it apart and it worked great...gross and weird,I know!) She was nervous for sure. When grandpa yanked it out and we were all cheering she didn't even know it was out. She just tasted blood! It was too cute. We found the tooth thank goodness! She left it under her pillow and got five whole dollars and a little prize!! WOW...what an awesome tooth fairy! She was so excited. I guess I just have to deal with the fact that my little girl is growing up...I better buckle up!
