{Our Thanksgiving weekend was spent in beautiful St. George. The weather was so nice and warm! It was a perfect day. We had dinner at my sweet Grandmas house, her and my uncle always do such a nice job. The food is always delicious and the tables are always so fancy and fabulous. This year my mom made these adorable holly berry and leaves ice sculptures~ so nice.
Layla loved her first Turkey meal, as I knew she would! Trae on the other hand...haha did not, such a picky little eater!!
We have so much to be thankful for and we had a wonderful day!!Love my family!
Later that night I dragged MP out to go "Black Friday" shopping with me. He was a trooper, infact it was so fun that we stayed out all night finishing all of our Christmas shopping!!!
What a wonderful time of the year!}

{The first week in November we planned a little weekend getaway with some of our friends! We dropped the kiddos off in SG with Grandma Patty & Papa Boo and made our way to Vegas. We stayed at Caesars Palace with VIP status, thanks to MP's parents! We were kinda bummed with the cold rainy weather however we still had a blast!!!It was a fun, much needed little getaway!!}

{LayLa 9 MonThS}

{Here is our little Layla @ 9 months!! She is growing and changing so much. We just love watching her GROW!!

At her 9 month wellness appointment she weighed 19 pds, 6 oz (75% tile) and is 29.3 inches long (100%tile), so she is chunky and long. haha

She is now eating lots of new foods, loves everything we give her. She is still sleeping thru the night from about 9-9 every night and taking a long nap on the day. She is seriously so busy...she is into and on top of everything. She has now started crawling up the stairs!! I'm sure she will be close to walking in the next couple months!! She now has 4 teeth, two on top and two on the bottom, so cute!! She is such a fun, sweet spirit and she is so in love with her older brother. They love to laugh and wrestle together!! She is truly a joy in our lives!!}

{We love this time of the year!!! There are so many things to do..

We had so much fun going with our cousins to Black Island Farms where we got to go on a tractor ride to pick out our pumpkins, we also played on all the fun toys and rode the rides.

And what a beautiful fall day it was!!}

{We also went to the Syracuse "Pumpkin Walk" with our friends the Ehlers! It was so cool seeing all the different pumpkins lite up at night!!}

{Halloween was perfect this year! The weather was so nice that we tricker treated the whole night. We started in our neighborhood, then headed to Grandma Annie & Papa Mikes house for yummy soup and more trick or treating!! Trae loved it!!He seriously got so much candy....}

{I wanted to just do monthly updates from here on out but I was going thru my pics from this last month and I think I'm gunna break it up....October was a busy month!! So the first weekend in Oct. me & my cute friend Brittany ran the Layton Half Marathon! It was so much different than my last half ( it was freezing cold, started 30 mins late and I felt the run was harder..super flat)but it was still so much fun & a great accomplishment. I ended up running this one 13 minutes faster than my last..still slow and steady finishing in 2 and a half hrs.}

{13.1 here we go!}

{LaBoR Day FuN}

{From the month of September the only real exciting thing I remember us doing is on Labor day weekend we took Trae and his cousin Jake (who Trae adores!!) to Lagoon for the 1st time. He absolutely loved it. He didn't seem too afraid to ride anything! if Jake was there with him he was fine. It was so fun and so cute!! We had a ton of fun!}
