{Christmas in Utah}

For Christmas we loaded up the family and headed to Utah to spend some time with our families!  It's a long drive with the kids but well worth it by the time it's all said and done.  The kids absolutely love every moment of being in Utah with their grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles!!  I miss being away from my family but the time we do get to spend with them is definitely quality!  The kids seem to go non-stop while we are there.  They know we only have so much time and they make the best of every second.  Some highlights of this trip were, playing in the snow, family Christmas parties, and bowling.  The Tremonton bowling alley is still the same as I remember it back in the day!!  Halli performed some great bowling form!  Check out that back leg...just like the pros! ;)  It was a great trip!

{Ragen's 2nd Birthday}

I have finally decided it's time to get back into the blogging world!!  I am soooo far behind, but I will get caught up, eventually!!

Now...lets go back in time about 6 months!!  On November 6th our Ragen celebrated her 2nd birthday.  She didn't get a fancy party,  but we did have pizza and cupcakes and she opened some fun presents!  She enjoyed every minute of it as you'll see from the pictures below.  I took her to the doctor on her special day to find out she had a terrible ear infection, but she was a trooper and still enjoyed her day!  It's crazy to think she is no longer my little baby but my little toddler!  Ragen brings lots of joy and drama to our home!  She is the "drama queen" around here!  She still keeps a smile on her face 95% of the time and loves to torment her sister.  Screaming seems to be one of her favorite things to do and boy does dad enjoy that!  Ha ha ha!!  She doesn't talk too much but slowly we are starting to figure out what she wants.  I think I am fine with her not talking too much because Halli seems to never stop!!!  Happy Birthday Raggie, we love you our "little sumo"!!!

Blowing out the candles was by far her favorite!!  Can you tell??

  Finally, she decides it's time to enjoy her cupcake!
