IM DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS.....IN ST.GEORGE

No longer do I have to dream about having a white Christmas in St.George...okay, okay I know it's not Christmas yet but just having it snow the last two days here has made me feel the Christmas spirit even that much more.

Our kids in their Christmas colors.

Tagged!!! 7 Things you might not know about me

1. It's hard for me to use public bathrooms.

2. I can eat an entire cake all by myself....for real!

3. I watch my son's cartoons with him because I like them.

4. I like the Jonas Brothers..jk...I can't stand them but I do like David Archuletta which is just as bad and cheesy.

5. I love scary movies and the feeling of being scared when watching a scary movie until bedtime of course, it takes me awhile to get all the jitters out.

6. I am terrible at directions.

7. Team Emmet all the way!!!

I tag whoever wants to do this.

Funny Faces

My sister Maila came over the other night to take pictures of her kids for her Christmas cards. It was hilarious to see all the kids try so hard to smile on cue. After continually saying "now sit here, look here, stand here, smile big, put your hands here, don't smack your sister, and of course JUST ONE MORE TIME" the kids had ENOUGH and decided to rebel by completely exaggerating every smile. So this was the backlash we got and probably deserved for constantly coaching our kids to smile for the perfect shot.

Teni was the first to rebel

Jaelyn decided to wink in almost every picture we took of him...what a crack up!

When Alyia tries too hard to smile she gets a little double chin...so funny!

there's that wink again

what a natural smile...lol!

We finally were able to get a few really cute pictures and so Maila picked these two pictures for her family Christmas cards.

Jaelyn's wink was perfect for the card because it totally captured his funny personality.

UPDATE

This past week has been so incredible busy for my family. We spent Thanksgiving in Las Vegas with my parents and had a great time, immediatly after (Thanksgiving night) we had to travel back home to get ready for a huge expo show the very next morning called Santa's Workshop held at the Dixie Center. It lasted to days from 10-6pm. We had such a great turnout and made great profit. I was lucky enough to get help from Heather, Maila, and Fiti. I have 5 parties to get ready for before Christmas and I also need to begin packing and.... I have to do all this with 3 kids and without the help of my husband. Just this week (spur of the moment)Troy moved back to Spanish Fork and is working at Steven's Henager College yet again. The economy has taken such a huge toll on Troy's business that it was necessary for us to move back. We plan on moving our family up by the beginning of January when the holidays are over with. We are so excited to move back up (Barry's here we come..ha Fiti) and can't wait to catch up with old friends. When the economy gets better...not "if" but "when" it gets better because it WILL get better, we will put our energy back into Edgemakers Concrete Solutions full-time.
