Phone pictures

After I got my new phone that actually takes a decent picture, I stopped taking my camera ever where like I use to. Sometimes it is just easier to snap a few pictures with my phone than have to carry around my big camera.
So here are a few pictures and stories from the last little while!

I went with Nancy to walmart on Black Friday!
When I walked in I bumped in to Cherish and she was waiting in line for the TV I was going to get, she told me that I could just go and stand with them!
They were in the front of the line and if I wouldnt have seen her I wouldnt have got my TV!

This was my fist black friday and it was alot of fun, some if those people are CRA CRA!!!!!

Grace has had a loose tooth for like the last month, she walks around with her hand in her mouth like this. It drives me crazy. Hopefully we get that out over Christmas break!

After a super long day at the doctor for myself I came back and just wanted to sit on my butt!
We have all been a little sick so when Alaynna had slept for like 4 hours it really didnt seem weird to me. Then when she woke up from her little nap she puked everywhere. I still thought "oh great now we have the stomach flu."
But then when I put her in the bath tub she was looking at me like she was high! It still hadnt quiet clicked with me, then she looks at me and says,"Mom, why are those black hairs all over your face."
And she had such a dry little mouth, then all the sudden it clicked in my head!!!
I asked her "Alaynna, did you drink medicine?"
Of course she said no, but I just kept asking her, then ran upstairs to find an empty bottle of children's benadryl. 
After calling poison control and having them tell me to get her to the nearest ER right now, we loaded her up and went to mesquite!!!

Now let me start this with saying I hate doctors, I think that the majority of them are retards that couldnt tell you more than google!

So when the "doctor" came in and wanted to do an EKG instead of giving her some water, I had a little freak out at him. Kyle told me I was crazy, but honestly google and my oils are all that i need!!!

After 4 hours of sitting in the ER, with NOTHING being done, she was just fine, she was just higher than a kite!

Ya mother of the year right here!
You always think, my kids will never do that, or what a retard for a mother that poor child has, but i speak from experience when i say stuff like this happens to the best of us!!!

The twins got out the boys old toys.
This was the conversation that they had.
Addison, "these are bad guys"
Alaynna, "no, they are bat guy and spider guy!"

If you just sit and listen to these two talk it is great!
Makes you feel like even if your kids get drunk of the benadryl you still must be doing something right!

Ren our elf came back this year, he brought some hot chocolate and Christmas cakes for breakfast!

He was flying around in the fan.

He made a zip line!

He was also caught shaving!

Grace has had dress up week at school for Christmas.
This was her red and white day!

This is dress like a present day!

This was red and green day. He velor pants were to short but she wouldnt change then, so whatever!!!
She also ran in the reindeer run this day! She did so great, she is surprisingly fast with her short little legs!

This was ugly sweater day! She didnt really have an ugly sweater, so I made her one! She actually loved it and thought it was so cute!!

These 2 were taking turns doing this to each other, then Alaynna says, "I wanna see what it looks like in a mirror, lets do it at the same time!"
It really made them laugh and me laugh!

I made this wonderful sugar scrub for Christmas, I only made 6, I will be making more of this ASAP! It is so great!

I also made caramels and chocolate pretzels! I am kinda over making things, I am ready for all my shows to come back on so I can sit on my butt and watch some HULU!

Now I am all caught up, Well as caught up as I am going to be!
Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things with the new year!

a little ride

It finally got cold here, but really not to cold. I love winters here, I couldnt ever move back to Utah! I enjoy being there in the summer, but there is nothing better than a nice easy winter where you can still grow a garden and go outside!

We went on a little ride this last weekend, mostly just to get out of the house.

When we got out to walk around, I told Grace, "look this way and you can see dirt and bushes, look the other way and you can see dirt and bushes!" Not very pretty here, but we were out in jackets playing in the sand!

Grace said a giant must live out there, cause she made seen a giant foot print.

She also found this beautiful flower that we had to bring back.

The girls love to go for little rides like this, but about 15 minutes into them they are asking when they can get out and run around! It makes for really long rides!

But little things they do and say make it all worth it.
Like when we were going up a hill and when we got up on top Addison says,"Dad, this is amazing!"

Christmas Tree

We got Nancys Christmas tree up The girls had so much fun decorating it!

Grandma has alot of pretty decorations and luckily we didnt break any of them!

The bottom of the tree had all of the decorations on it and someone rearranged after the little girls had gone up to bed!

My favorite decorations on Nancys tree are all of her elves, I would love to get some of them and have an elf tree!

The girls have loved looking and moving all of the decorations and the presents!

I am going to use this picture for one of my photography class assignments! I love how bright it turned out, it looks like lights are on, but it is just the tree lights!

Blog Break

I took another blog break, I kept thinking, "I should update", but then I felt all mean and wanted to hit someone with my fist, so i decided to do it another day when I felt nicer, it just hasnt happened lately!

If you have been around me you wouldnt know it cause I have really been trying hard, for Kyle and the girls, to be happier, but the holidays are hard for me.

I miss my family, I miss my sisters and their family's, I miss having us all together, I miss my mom and dad, I want to be with them, i want my own space and my own home.
I just want to have my family, my sisters and there husbands and kids, with my Mom, Steve, Dad and Holly, all in my own little home, (that is paid for), and no fighting, just happiness and good food.
Is that to much to ask for???

Apparently yes,
yes it is!

But then today I got on my blog to see if someone left me a sweet comment, and they did. It said,
"I miss my daily blog! come back soon!"!
 It was probably from one of my sweet grandmas, but it really made my day.
So I am updating tonight!!!
