Catch up time!

Lots and lots has happened, so lets begin!

We planned to have Thanksgiving dinner with our friends, bad sadly they got sick. Won't lie, cried about it. . . but it was also nice to be low-key and spend time together as a family.

We had potatoes, gravy, the stuffing, rolls, and yummy honey glazed ham. We swapped with our friends and also got turkey, green bean casserole, and other good food. 

Much basketball was watched by all

Then of course we went for a walk braving the cold. It was a fun day overall!

Loves to stick out his tongue and give raspberries.

Made these for the ward Christmas party, 12 total. They were placed on the refreshment tables with little candles in them. Then we strung lights and stars across the gym. In the haste of putting everything up I forgot to take a picture. . . oh well. I thought it turned out cute:)

Buddy reminds me of a ninja turtle in this one, HAHAHA! don't know why

Again the tongue....

Had fun putting up christmas

This kid and his crazy hair in the mornings. Brings a smile to my face.

He LOVES to eat!

We got another good snow storm, so pretty!

Trying to entice family to come down with some PB bars..... it didn't work.

Both Bronson and I got a cold in December. Poor little guy didn't sleep very well at all one night. But man did I love snuggling that little guy. 

Feeling tons better after a good nights sleep

I LOVE my grapefruit, seriously LOVE. With just a little salt and I am in heaven. Bring on the Grapefruit season!

Beyond excited! Our neighbor asked Ty and friend if they could help her move some furniture she just bought at an estates sale. He was gone for a while even heard him come home and then leave again. Ty walked in the front door and showed me that he bought a little bench for my vanity, but was kind of hiding behind a wall. It didn't click for a bit and then I realized what kind of bench it was! Ty found this beauty at the estates sale for only $100!!!!!! I just sobbed:) Thank you neighbor for going to an estates sale today!

Bronson loves his string beans. . . . or so I thought:)

Ty is really so good with Bronson boy. Chilling out on the kitchen floor while I am making dinner. Man I am truly blessed to have Ty!

Skip this picture if you are queasy... Sneezed this snot onto my shirt and laughed out loud. So naturally I took a picture:)

Bronson spent his 9 month birthday at the airports. Getting ready for our flight to Utah. 

Once again I am a lucky momma to get some snuggles. The babe missed his nap due to getting to the airport . We gave him the bottle on take off and after 5 minutes of crying fell asleep. He only woke up after pulling up to our gate at the SLC airport. Ty and I felt pretty lucky that day:)

Woke up Christmas morning to 12 inches of snow!!!! So pretty!

The Skipper hard at work clearing the walks

Bronson's first Christmas morning.

We are all excited.... can you tell?

This is how most of the pictures look of buddy opening presents, flying paper.

Running off to church.

Went with Ty's folks to the Aquarium in Draper. Must say I really enjoyed it! Ty was of course in heaven looking at the fish along with Bronson

This is the South America room, humidity and all 

The word puzzle got dad all tired

I really hope this video works. Bronson has learned to scoot!

I made my first real cake! Vanilla Bean cake with raspberry frosting. The girls helped me choose the sprinkles. So GOOD! Thanks Jenn for your help!

Got this for Christmas from Logan and Jenn. We love it. Easy to learn and play. 

His favorite new place to play
