The boy is ours!!!

Bub did it; he finished his first semester of Medical School! How many does he have left? We just don't think about that question. Bub did not have to study this weekend so we had a fun filled weekend as a family and with some friends.

We took the girls on a "Santa train ride" in little Boulder city ( 5 min. away) It was not the "Heber Creeper" but it was a lot of fun.
Just before we were returning to the train station Santa and Mrs. Clause showed up! Hailey liked Mrs. Clause but did not really like Santa.
Mia loved pulling on Santa's beard.
Mia loves her tongue.
I was sneaky and got a picture of this train guy. He looks awesome and fits the part completely! He is like straight from a movie.
My girls!
Here we are, on our way to board the train!
We went to a Christmas party with our med school friends who husbands were all able to hang out now. The kids decorated this ginger bread house. They did awesome!

Happy birthday to Hailey and Asher!!!

Thanksgiving in Las Vegas!

My parents and my sister came to Henderson for Thanksgiving! It was so nice to have them, I wish they could have stayed longer. We tried to fit a couple of activities into one day while they were here, so we took them to see the big horn sheep. And the girls went and saw the New Moon, movie. :)

Liza is in stealth mode!
I am thankful for my family, and I can't wait to have my brothers back for future holidays! Our family feels small with them gone.

This is the biggest Christmas tree I have ever seen. We had to get a picture by it!

Update on my girls: Hailey is busy, busy, busy. It really takes all I have to attempt to stay caught up with her. She is so much fun and has been learning a lot of songs at preschool, so, she sings and sings all day long! Oh yes, and she gets into my make-up.

Mia: This girl just warms everyone's heart. She is super sweet and guess what she says? "Momma" It's true, I'm pretty proud. :)

I feel like life is just crazy and hectic right now but I am so glad we have holidays and times where I can take a breather and see all that I am blessed with including all those who we love! Happy Holidays everyone!
