By this next post you will be able to tell that I wasn’t kidding when I said that I love to get family pictures. I am now 30 weeks pregnant so I called up Liz to take some maternity pictures. Elly and Jesse were both done before we started (although I cannot blame them we have had a few this year) but as always Liz did a great job.
Christmas was a lot of fun we spent the week before Christmas in Magrath with Jesse’s family, it was a nice and relaxing week and they were so good to us. We celebrated Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with Jesse’s mom’s side then went for an amazing dinner at Jesse’s Dad’s. It was a full day Elly was very tired by the end.
Since we missed Christmas with my parents this year we invited them over for dinner and to open gifts. Elly was so excited to open more presents and could not rip off the paper fast enough.
This Christmas we decorated sugar cookies with Elly for the first time and it was so much fun. Elly did a really good job cutting the dough for the cookies but I think that she ate more icing then she was putt on the cookies so mom and dad took over that part.
Halloween was a lot of fun – and we all looked as CUTE AS CAN BEE! Elly and I were bumble bees and Jesse was our bee keeper. We went to the ward Trunk or Treat and took Elly to visit the Grandparents.
As you may have realized I love to get family pictures taken and so when my parents said that they wanted to get together to take family pictures and they were up to going with my favourite photographer I was very excited (visit her blog here http://pigtailsandsnails.blogspot.com/). It was a beautiful October day and even though I am almost 4 months pregnant in these pictures I think they turned out ok (probably thanks to a sweet friend of mine who helped out with my wardrobe).
Ok…..I am aware that I have not posted anything for 5 months! But don’t worry I am about to catch you up on all of the fabulous details of our life along with some adorable pictures.
