It's the most wonderful time of the year!!

We are excited for Christmas!! It is our first Christmas as a married couple! It was so fun decorating our apartment. We are grateful that Jeff's mom let us use her old Christmas tree. I bought ornaments and lights last year after Christmas so all we needed to do was put it all together! I think our tree turned out cute. The only thing that we didn't have was a tree skirt. I couldn't find one that I liked so I decided to make one. I found cute fabric and Christmas ribbon that I liked and just sewed them together. I think it turned out GREAT!! My favorite decoration to put up every year is my stocking. My mom made my stocking when I was little and I've used to every year since. When a new addition is added to our family my mom makes them a stocking as well. Jeff stocking turned out so good. He is excited to use it this year!

We love fall!

We went to Black Island Farms with the Atkinson family! We were suprised with all the different activities they had there. I think the slides were the favorite among the children and the adults! Jeff, Jenni and I went through the twilight corn maze. We got lost and ended up exiting the maze through the entrance. Even though it wasn't the right way out we were happy that we found a way out! We had a lot of fun! I hope we go again next year!

4th of July

I LOVE the 4th of July!! I love fireworks, parades, and spending time with family! This year the 4th was on a sunday. We spent the day with Jeff's family. Bryce put on a firework show for us that night! It was a lot of fun! The 5th of July was when Layton City was celebrating the holiday. Jeff had to work that day, so he missed out on the fun. I went to the parade with my family. Later that night Jeff and I went and saw the fireworks! It was a fun weekend and it was even better to be able to celebrate the holiday for 2 days!

Fun at the Zoo

My cute niece and nephew invited me to go the zoo with them! I couldn't resist the invitation so I went! It was a lot of fun. My parents and my little brother decided to join us as well. We had fun looking at all the animals! We even rode the carousel. What a fun day!

ROAR.....
