Ok I think these are the last of the random 'extras' I keep finding all over our computers. I really need to get organized. Eventually I'll get to blogging about our Christmas adventures!
 |
| Just hanging out at playgroup one day...always happy to be munching on something |
 |
| At the playground...deep in thought |
 |
| We watched Jake and Mia one night while Kristie and Wes went on a date. It was a perfect opportunity to frost some sugar cookies with the boys. They did surprisingly well and I promise they had a good time despite the blank faces...I swear this has to be the hardest age for pictures...they never want to look AND smile at the camera! |
 |
| This was while babysitting Tyler one night...I'm so glad those two get along :) |
 |
| And another last minute zoo trip before we left for VA...it's too bad my kid feels the need to climb over EVERYTHING...including animal enclosures. Yikes. |
 |
| We made sure to visit the JW Marriot at Desert Ridge again for their gingerbread display. This year it was a Grinch theme. I was actually amazed that Sawyer let the Grinch hold him...usually he complains that he's scary. Maybe he was in shock. Either way, the Grinch gave him a massive lollipop afterwards and that won him over for good. Looks like I'll be allowed to watch the movie again next Christmas ;) |
 |
| The hotel had a cute little mailbox for 'Letters to Santa' in their lobby. Sawyer thought it was pretty cool to put some mail in there all by himself! |
 |
| Violet just chillin in the lobby at the hotel. |
 |
| There are a surprising amount of 'winter festivities' in Phoenix around Christmas time. One of our favorite little out door shopping centers, Desert Ridge, did a Snow Day one Saturday. Nate took Sawyer and they met up with Kristie and her family for a little fun in the snow! They even built a little snowman! |
 |
| We also got to help celebrate Mia's 1st birthday right before we left for VA. I made the little '1'sie and hat so that she could be extra festive. SUCH a cute little girl! Can't believe she's already 1! |
 |
I made over 80 cinnamon stars as a party favor for our Relief Society Progressive Dinner this year. They were actually super easy to make and turned out pretty cute!
