*Disneyland*

I am just getting all my pictures loaded to the computer... Holidays are a crazy time. When we went to California for Thanksgiving we went to Disneyland twice. We LOVE Disneyland. Thanks Mom and Dad for renewing my pass seriously!!! We were lucky too because it was all decked out for Christmas which got us even more in the holiday spirit.

Bay is obsessed with anything Princess so she wanted to be in the princess castle the whole time.
The giant Christmas tree on Main Street. After the fireworks this is where they have 'snow' at Disneyland. It is so magical there!
Here is Memaw with Bailey and Owen, and Vauri and Ava watching the fireworks. My Dad was sitting by me.
I don't know do you think she likes her new princesses Memaw got her?
On the tram going home. This was me and Bay's last day in California :(
We of course had to make a stop to see the princesses for Bailey. We waited in line for an hour and a half. The kids were champs though. Bailey's favorite princess lately is Belle so she was asking to see her the whole time. There ended up being only 3 princesses to meet when we finally got to the front of the line so I was so happy to see Belle was one of them.

Bailey loved Ava I wish we lived closer!
Owen and Bailey really get along now too. YAY!
So happy to be at Disneyland with her cousins!

~Thanksgiving~

I love Thanksgiving! Definitely one of my favorite holidays! I have so much in my life to be Thankful for, and it is nice to really focus on that. This year we went to California for Thanksgiving. The weather was more than perfect... we ate our Thanksgiving feast outside! So nice!!! We really missed Chris though. Chris burned his arm while camping a few weeks ago and required a skin graft. His surgery was scheduled the day before our flight, and the doctor said Chris would not be able to come with us. :( We were pretty sad, but were also very excited to visit my family!

Owen playing while we all veg out!
My cousin Joe and Owen fighting with light sabers Owen is a little obsessed with star wars! By the end of our trip Bailey was even getting into it!
I love this picture of the Sheans!
Pretty much my entire family has IPhones Here are some of my cousins playing with theirs
Wes, Kim, Will (who just barely got back from his mission and already has one) his girlfriend Lindsey, and Rose

Here are the kiddos on Thanksgiving morning.. Bailey is in the same clothes she wore to Disneyland the day before! Bailey really loves her cousins so much. They all got along so well on this trip. Vauri's inlaws came into town one day so we didn't see them that day and Bailey kept asking where Ava and Owen were, she was pretty bummed that day. I am so sad we don't live closer.

More pics to come!

Halloween Party for the adults

The weekend before Halloween weekend, our friends invited us to a costume party and we had such a good time. Lot's of dancing and chatting! We love to have some adult time!


Here we are with our friends Josh and Amy, they are so fun!
Me and Chris

Halloween!!!

Halloween was so awesome this year. Bailey has been so into it and was so excited to be a witch. She also insisted that Chris be a monkey. A few days before Halloween Lisa came over and we carved pumpkins. Bailey painted hers and was so cute doing it because she was so serious about it.

Here is the finished product. I really wanted to make the puking pumkin. I thought it was pretty funny.
Here is Bailey Boo checking out the pumpkins. I love that she has her princesses in her hands. She is obsessed with them!
On Halloween we decided to go trick or treating with the Bush family. We had such a fun night! I bought a Halloween Gingerbread house kit that we did after trick or treating. During trick or treating we came up to the house and all of these teenagers were going into the house and Bailey just followed them right in and went down the hall. It was so funny!
Kalon and Bailey getting ready to go trick or treating!

Cuties!
Chris is the background! He is so funny! Love my monkey man!

Leaving with their loot!
Bailey was walking very s-l-o-w so Kalon said carry her Chris! It was so funny!

I am back...

I decided to start up my blog again, I just don't keep track of our life without it and missed it. So here are some pictures of picking pumpkins a few weeks ago...

These two love each other so much...

Bailey is two!!!

To my Bailey Boo-

I cannot believe you are already two! The time has gone by way too fast! You are by far the sweetest little girl in the world. You have brought so much joy to our lives. You are so little and cute... we call you our little pixie. You are so full of energy and love to play and play. We love your beautiful blond hair and gorgeous brown eyes. We love that you are always so excited to be with your Mama and Daddy, its the best thing in the world. I love that you are such a girlie girl and when we went to Nordstrom today you ran over to the kids department shrieking "SHOES!!!" at the top of your lungs. I love that you call yourself Beely Beeks "Bailey Blake" and when you also say Mama Beeks, Daddy Beeks, Canny Beeks and Sushi Beeks. I love that you sit at the table with us like a big girl now. I love how you say bless you to us. I love that every time the dogs bark you think Adam, Erin or Brooklyn are at our door... you always look at me and say "OW? Mimi? Bookie?" You are starting to talk so well. I am a little sad that some of your cute words for things are going away...at least you still call spiders "bidsies." I love blasting the music and having dance parties with you. I love making silly faces with you. I love listening to you read your books. You are happy, easy to smile, and super cuddly. You are finally starting to understand time out! I love when you are done with time out and you look at me with your adorable eyes and say "sowwy mama... woo woo!" (sorry mama love you.) I love that I can finally watch a whole movie with you at the theater! I love that you make everyone feel like they are your favorite. I just love you so much, and I am so happy you are ours!
I love you Bailey!
Love, Mommy
P.S. I will post pics from the weekend after school!

A day on the slopes

First off... here are a couple of cute pictures I took of Bailey on Valentine's Day. She is a darling little girl! She looks so much older to me lately.

I tried getting a picture of her hair. I love that her hair is starting to get longer so I can try new cute styles out on her. I am sooooo glad I have a girl! :)
Sunday we headed up to Park City with Adam and Erin to go snowoarding. :) I seriously love snowboarding so much, every time I go I am so excited and wish I could go everyday. Bailey stayed at Grandma's house, but I thought about her the whole day. We saw so many little itty bitty girls skiing and I can't wait for her to learn. Definitely next year she will be hitting the slopes. We talked to a couple that had their 2 1/2 year old daughter skiing with them. They said she loved it! Chris and I can't wait to get Bailey up there with us! Ed taught Adam how to ski when he was two and said he wants to do the same for Bailey and I am all for it.

We couldn't have asked for a better day. The sun was out pretty much the whole time, and I actually was surprised at how well I did. Adam and Erin weren't really with us that day, he was teaching her to board on the bunny hill. It was so much fun being just me and Chris, he took me to the jumps and rails and showed off how good he is. What a hottie! :) We met Adam and Erin for lunch and I told Erin that Chris and I were on an awesome run (Payday) and that she would probably like it more than the bunny hill. I personally always hated the bunny hill, even when I was learning. Well Chris and I ended up talking her into trying it out, but she ended up HATING it! She was in tears and actually found a snowmobile that took her the whole way down. I seriously felt so bad, I hope that doesn't make her want to quit. She said it wasn't that bad but that she didn't want to take the whole day on that one run so that made me feel a little better. I can't wait to get back up there it was really the perfect day...

Erin getting ready to learn... I bet her butt hurts like no other right about now!
Gotta get a shot of me.

The view...I love Park City!
Here we are taking Erin on her first real lift! She did pretty good getting off!
Totally wiped out afterward on the way home!
