AZ Trip

My beautiful sis with her 2 oldest boys. I only got to visit with them for a little bit.
I got to hike up to the wind caves in Mesa with a friend. It was beautiful and the weather was wonderful.

My sweet little nephew had open heart surgery and I went down to be with my sis. He did amazing and was out of the hospital after only 5 days!!

Once he was home, he was squealing and wouldn't stop smiling.

On his last day in the hospital we finally got him to smile.

I think all sisters take silly pictures, especially when you are bored and waiting for a table at Oregano's! We were both CRAVING a Pizookie. (A cookie baked to perfection in a skillet topped with ice cream, whipcream, chocolate syrup and I think it's sprinkled with magic yummy dust!!
It's funny when people see us together, they either say, "you look nothing alike" or "you look just like each other!" Either way, we look like idiots in these pics!!

Thinking about the Pizookie.....

This was our "SOMEONE TOOK MY PIZOOKIE"!!! face.

It was worth every bit of the 20 minute wait. :) :)

Christmas 2009

Don't you love it when people take pictures of themselves? I realized I didn't have any on here of us at Christmas, so here we are. We had a wonderful Holiday and I am soo grateful for my family both close and far. I wish we lived closer but I'm grateful to have such amazing family and friends here in Utah.
She went to the kitchen, got the shredded wheat, put it on the little guys desk then folded her arms to say a prayer! She never ceases to amaze me.

This is the face she gives me when I tell her to "say cheese." My sis gave her the hat and I love it on her.
You can probably tell she wasn't so crazy about the big bow on her dress. :)
Happy girl on Christmas. My mom in law gave me the good idea of taking a pic with all her toys. There's that "cheese" face again.
Her ABSOLUTE favorite is her pig. Thanks Emily! She LOVES it! It goes everywhere with us.

My feet are not the cutest but hers are. She enjoyed painting them.
Thanks Grandpa and Grandma for her car! We love that we can all ride it!

Charlotte did this all by herself one day. She looks in the mirror, says "dadadadadada!" then pretends to hit herself and falls over. She thought it was hilarious and so did we!

Our Christmas Angel

I LOVE her little Christmas dress! She's such a sweetheart. She looks so big!


Marc's Family Christmas party was fun this year. Lots of snow but we all made it.

I Love December

Temple Square is amazing at Christmas! I love Marc in this picture. :)
Charlotte got to try ranch dressing for the first time today. It was too cute.
Can you tell she loved it?
