Vegas

 We stayed at the Golden Nugget on our way to Utah. We took the kids out a day early because we found this hotel with a fun pool. We left early so the kids would have time to play in the pool before it closed. So upon arriving we learn that the pool was closed for maintenance! So we were able to get a late check-out for the next day so the kids could play. And it was a good thing to since David and Austin had a stomach bug the next morning!!

 Since the pool was closed the hotel opened up the Adult Only pool

 They had the coolest pool! They had  a waterslide going through the shark tank.

 Here's Aubree going through the waterslide. The other kids were too scared.

 Austin still wasn't feeling well and didn't swim much.

My Brothers Wedding

 Okay lets get one thing straight: My LITTLE sister is taller then me but on this particular day she decides to wear heels. I"m glad I had Modena take this picture. It had been awhile (like maybe high school!)

 My brother has finally gotten married! The sealing was hillarious! But it was a very special day for both of them and they are off to Walt Disney World!

 My family. Had to hurry and take a picture but he left for his honeymoon.

Merry Christmas!

 Addie helped me a lot this year which will now become a tradition.

 Thank to Aubree's friend for the mustache tatoos....not really!

 We had a white Christmas!! After the kids were done making cookies they ran outside to play in the snow!

Suprise!!!

 I told Aubree that we were just doing a family party this year. She was pretty bummed. 2 of her friends even came to hang out on her birthday and at 5:30 I sent them home because we were going to eat dinner. Aubree begged me to let them stay and eat with us for her birthday and I said no. Little did she know 4 of her closest friends were all coming over at 6pm!!! She had no idea!

 She really wanted a cell phone, but we said no (dave said no!) so we got her the next best thing: an ipod touch.
