Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!

So it snowed like a foot this morning and so Alex was taking me here to work so I could upload all these pictures, and we stopped by melenie's on the way and I was so lucky to have my camera when this happened! She came to the car to talk to me and see that big chunk gone from her roof? Yeah that fell on her!!!!! We were laughing so hard she kept saying "I'm gonna pee i'm gonna pee!" Because well, if you know me and my sisters that's what happens when we get laughing! :-)

This was after she got most of it off :-)

I didn't take many pictures christmas day, but here's my stocking :-)

This is the rest of the stuff Alex gave me christmas eve along with the ring:-) That picture says it's not much... but it's all I have :-) Corny but way cute :-)

And he had the ring tied around these flowers :-)

Christmas Eve

Ok so my cousin Makenzie got a puppy for christmas! It's just like their old dog who they had for forever! They haven't named her yet but she is Beetoven's (from the dog movies) great grand daughter. So that's pretty cool. And her and Cade are 6 weeks apart so we are going to take pictures every like 2 months to see the difference :-)

And this is me holding Cade :-) So cute!

Random Pictures :-)

So this is the puzzle I got my mom for one of her 12 days of christmas presents. Me and Alex ended up putting it together :-) It was so much fun! I have never been patient enough to do one but I have to say it's probably one of my new favorite things.

Bob went to Paytons birthday party and came home with this hat...and Mel is wearing it.

This is Radley all bundled up with his moon boots :-)

It's been so cold that we've been letting the cats inside. And they love it! The first one is Lucky and the second is Midnight.

Nursury Lesson

I had the christmas lesson in nursury and so I made these christmas tree ornaments for all the kids. It was really easy, I just got the clear bulbs and opened them up and put glitter and pipe cleaners inside then tied and ribbob and put bells on the outside! :-) And then I wrapped them all. The kids were so excited :-)

Work Christmas Party*

Ok we had our work christmas party at our house this year because last year it was super expensive and it was really gross food. So this year we got a bunch of stuff from costco and steaks from panhandler pies and transformed our living room! :-) There are also pictures of all the guys playing rock band after dinner! :-) Bob sang mississippi queen and it was so funny!!

My Christmas Present from Alex :-)

This is what Alex got me for Christmas :-) It's NOT an engagement ring, just a ring. Or a promise ring I guess. Trust me, my engagement ring will be bigger :-) Haha, it looks alot smaller in person. It's a 1/4k with white gold so it's pretty small but for a promise ring it's pretty amazing :-) :-) It's an $800 ring but he got it for a good price! :-) I was so amazed at how expensive real diamonds are! I mean just a quarter karat is just shy of a thousand dollars! But it's super pretty :-)

I'll probably be posting more pictures tomorrow of some other christmas stuff and our work christmas party!! I hope everyone had a wonderful christmas!! :-)

(I got these pictures from the place he got it from so this is the same one :-))

Christmas Decorations! :-)

Ok, so i'm doing the 12 days of christmas for my mom and these are her presents :-)

Just showing some of my mom's wonderful skills :-)

It looks weird with only 4 stockings compared to the 8 we used to have. As you can see there is a space in the middle for when michael comes home with his :-)


This is the countdown angel my mom made. The flowers are from her bouqet when she got married, and the lace is from her veil. And then the buttons on the shoes are off of her favorite sweater she had when she was 16!

In the kitchen above the french doors.

She always wraps the pictures on the walls to look like presents.

Her nutcrackers

The kitchen window

My gingerbread house I made :-)

Her santa collection

This year I decided to take on the task on wrapping all the pictures of us 11 kids and the family pictures. It took a while, but I like it :-)

The tree :-)

Thanksgiving Dinner!!

Lizzy fell asleep literally 2 minutes after we said the prayer to eat! :-) So Yuri took her upstairs and put her in bed :-)

I was stuck where I was so I just had to reach up and blindly take a picture.
Here's one of the three turkeys we had

We pushed the couches up against the wall and put tables up. We had 27 people over!

I want one of these!

It's a great dane, one just came into the store and he was so cute! He was attached to my hip haha, and he would lean against me and I thought I was going to fall over. The owner said he weight 120 and had his own couch that he doesn't even fit on. They are really nice dogs, he said its in their nature to be nice and the only time they are mean is if you raise them like that. I want one so bad!!
