What Happened to Blogging Anyway

So, by chance today, I decided to type in my old blog.... and went back and read a lot of posts, that a few years ago, seemed very ingrained in my mind... and now... Funny, I remembered some of them, but the cute little ones, they were actually the best...

So why did Blogging become non-existent to Facebook and Instagram? It is way more personal, a lot better of a way to share things... interesting?!

So I thought I would add to this blog today, and make a note to self, remember to blog more... Because, it was really fun to read things from years ago!

10 Year Anniversary - San Antonio Here We Come!!!

 Happy 10 Years!!! We Celebrated by going to the San Antonio, TX. It was so amazing and so fun!

 We started off on the Riverwalk, and visited the Alamo.

 The Riverwalk was gorgeous, and so fun. I had heard about it for years, working for Marriott, and I had been wanting to go see it. We took a river cruise first thing.

 We then explored the city more and went to the Tower of America.

 It was so fun to EAT! No kids, no interuptions, totally needed!

 After staying in the city, we high-tailed it to the JW Resort, which was AMAZING!!

 The pool turned colors at night!

 Lance remembered there was a temple, and we went exploring and found it.

It was Gorgeous!

 The Temple Presidency was inside when we got there, and when they finished their meeting, came out and was so nice to tell us some history and take our picture.

 It was a truly needed vacation! We had so much fun and we loved San Antonio!

 Happy 10 Years together Babe!! Love You!!

Avilynn is 1!!!!

I can't believe it!!!!

My baby is growing up, I am in shock ....She was so cute eating her cake!

Stupid Blogger, pictures are backwards....

I decided not to go all out with Fondant... its a lot of work, and she wouldn't have known, cared, or have been able to eat it cute...

This was the first time I made the 1st birthday cakes, and it was fun to have her little side cake along with the sheet cake!

She is growing so fast, I can't beleive it!! Where did this last year go?!!!

Christmas Time Was Here....

This year was a busy Christmas...

We had a bunch of activities planned out...

One was going to St. George to Touchan to see the Live Nativity they put on.

We went down with some great friends and had a really fun time!!

This is out of order... dumb Blogger... and I don't feel like uploading again...

Kenton got to choose our Theme for this year. Obviously he chose Harry Potter.

Next year it is McKelles turn to pick... We might all be Strawberry Shortcakes...or Barbie ;)

Spiderman and Venom, with me as Catwoman again..( McKelle had just got out of the hospital)
