took the girls skiing at the Jackson Hole resort, it was pretty cold so they were only interested for a short time.

Lily's first time skiing!

She said, "I did it!"

getting some pizza in jackson!

Lily's adventure getting out of bed and getting into my makeup, she did get everything in the right area though haha

Christmas & Annabelle's Birthday

We had a very Merry Christmas! We went up to the cabin and did Christmas morning with Mom & Dad Searle; played in the snow and went sledding and skiing. We had a blast! Then we celebrated Christmas with Mom & Dad Richmond. The girls acted out the nativity this year and it was super cute and funny.

We cut down a Christmas Tree!

sledding races, Annabelle loves going fast!

I just love this picture, they were both so gentle with the "baby" and gave Him kisses, it was just a blanket wrapped up.

Grammy Searle made the girls these hats! so Cute!

Isn't it amazing that she put a snowflake on them!

Lily loved the snow mobile

Christmas Jammies at Grammy & Papa Richmonds

We stayed at their house on saturday night and went to church together for Taylor's baby blessing. This is the girls in their Christmas Dresses

opening presents after church...Annabelle's Tinkerbell Dress!

Lily playing doctor

After Christmas we have a week to recover before Annabelle's Birthday! She is 4 now! I can't believe it! We were planning an Elsa party, but she decided she wanted a Tinkerbell party after she got a Tinkerbell dress for Christmas. So we had a Pirate Fairy Party from the Tinkerbell movie. We lost the blue pixie dust and had to get it back by sword fighting a pirate, walking a plank, and sorting the pixie dust to their correct colors, topped it off by making magic fairy bottles then we opened presents and had cake! It was super fun and the kids loved it! Lily was confused about the gifts because she just had Christmas but Annabelle generously let Lily help her open presents.

Annabelle has loved this horse! She loves that the hat has a "Crown" on it :) she has even shared the horse with Lily

The cake I made for Annabelle with the help of Mom Searle and Cindy!

It was a hit :)

Merry Christmas!

We want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! We are so blessed! I am so thankful for my husband, this week I got the flu and he is so amazing! He took care of everything I needed and he played with the girls, took them to church, fed them, and put them to bed all by himself. They loved having Daddy time. I'm thankful for my girls, they are so contagiously happy! They were concerned for me and Annabelle kept sneaking in toys for me to play with while I was sick. I love watching them play together, they are already such good friends, I hope they keep that connection. I'm thankful to have a baby on the way :) I'm thankful for family and that everyone loves each other so much, what a blessing it is to have our parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and grandparents in our lives! We are thankful for our friends, it's amazing to have friends that treat you like family and help whenever you have a need. I'm grateful for this Christmas season, I'm grateful for the knowledge of the birth of our Savior and the plan of Salvation! Love this time of year!

Below I did a photo shoot with the girls, trying to copy something off of pinterest, it didn't turn our quite like I wanted because my lens doesn't blur enough in the background, but they turned out cute still. 

Decorated the Christmas Tree! This was our first real tree!

Annabelle with her flower girl box from Sierra, she carries it everywhere!

New Christmas Jammies, they are so adorable

Annabelle's Christmas Concert

Lily loves it when Brock pretends to be a puppy. She has him follow her around and she pets him and feeds him, its so adorable.

We went to see Santa and his Reindeer!

Of course lily's favorite part was the reindeer

Annabelle was so excited to tell Santa what she wanted for Christmas but got choked up at the last minute

Lily subbed for Annabelle during her last soccer game and was so excited to play and get treats, After her game she went to the wrong team to get treats, they thought she was so cute and gave her treats anyway, then she got treats from her team, so there was plenty to share with Annabelle.
