December is over :(

I love Christmas and December soo much and I am always so sad when it is over. Sorry I know this post is super late but life has been crazy! This year JJ and I had such a great Holiday here are some of the events that took place.

First - We had Payton's 5th Birthday. I can't believe how big she is getting. We had cake and opened presents and had a blast.

Then we went sledding and Soldier Hollow for the Shaw Christmas Party. What a blast that was. I love the snow except for when my toes get cold which seems like every time I go out in the cold. We decided to stay in a condo in Midway after sledding and I've decided that is my favorite place. It is so beautiful up there and it was a great get away!

Every year we have a Christmas Eve party and the Shaw's. We always have a yummy dinner and then we open our gifts. I love this party every year and am so thankful for great in-laws.

JJ and I spend Christmas morning with just the two of us and I LOVE THAT! Its so nice to celebrate together. This year I was so spoiled with all kinds of fun stuff, thanks babe! Here is my tree also, I love the smell of a fresh cut tree in my house.

This year my parents took us to see the elk up at Harware Ranch and then treated us to a yummy dinner at Maddox :) JJ had to miss out on this even due to work :(

We also went to a million Christmas Parties but I dont have pictures. Now that Christmas is over I'm excited to welcome the new year. Lots of things are happening in our lives and i'm excited for each and every one: new baby, hopefully our house sells and we will have a new house, work, play and all sorts of fun stuff.

Christmas Gift!!

I can't believe Christmas has come and gone. So much has happened this month and I promise I will post all about it ASAP!

Given my track record (2 Miscarriages) JJ and I have waited forever to tell people we are expecting!!!!! I thought Christmas would be a perfect time!!!! Well I am almost 13 weeks along and we both are so excited we can hardly stand it! So far this pregnancy has had no complications aside from the fact that I am loosing weight instead of gaining because I have been so sick :( Hopefully this one works out and in July we will have a little Shaw! I love you all and hope you had a great Christmas.

What a Great Weekend!!

We had such a blast this year at the cabin for Thanksgiving. Aside from being sick most the time I would call this years Thanksgiving a success! JJ and I brought up my parents camper trailer to sleep in because it can get a little crazy in the cabin at bed time. IT WAS SO WORTH IT!! Lindsey and Cody came up with their three beautiful kids and it was so nice to have a quiet place to go to sleep. THANKS MOM AND DAD!! Every year we go cut Christmas Trees the day after Thanksgiving, a tradition I love!! I love the smell of a fresh Christmas Tree in my house, I can't believe it is already that time of year again. JJ and I were setting up our tree last night and can't believe this will be our fourth Christmas together being married CRAZY!! I love setting up for Christmas, I dont think I will ever grow up when is comes to this time of year. I will post pics of my tree later. Here are some pics from our great weekend at the cabin.

Sorry I know this is way late but JJ and I had such a great Halloween. We carved pumpkins at my moms about a week before and had a lot of fun. JJ hates to get all GOOIE carving pumpkins but he did it anyway :). I love this time of year but for some reason I am not ready for this cold weather.


I know this looks sooo White Trash sitting on a car seat outside but my dad had this sitting in the garage so we pulled it out to be more comfortable. Ok maybe a little White Trash but oh well it saved our backs!

Car for SALE

I have been trying to sell my KIA forever and have had no takers. This has been such a great car but with JJ and I commuting to South Jordan everyday we decided we should probably get a car. My Kia is a 2004 and is fully loaded with leather, sun roof, seat warmers, all of the fun stuff. If you know anyone that is interested let me know.

No More Mac Blog

Well I have had a number of problems with my Mac blog and have decided to start a Blogspot. This is very different than my Mac one so please be patent with me.
