Merry Christmas!

 Last Sunday the kids already looked so christmasy I had to take their pictures..Those are some beautiful kids I've got.

Little Ballerinas

Jenny and Ruby are not in dance, but every time they come home from preschool, they dress up and dance to music. It is so hilarious to watch and they have some pretty good moves.

Day Date

I didn't get any pics of this day because I think I was a little maxed out in the pic department, but we stayed with my Mom and Ron for 2 nights. It was so awesome because they watched the kids for us so Rans and I could go out. I took Randy to see the new Twilight movie. He absolutely loved it and told me what a great wife I was several times for suggesting it  said it was Ok. Afterwards we went to Round Table pizza. I got a Maui Zowie(YUM!) with no cheese and meat (not as yum.) Then that night we spent making 8-9 dozen cookies for the wedding....old school with a wooden spoon.

My Mom and Ron were great to play with the kids and to watch them the next day while we were at the Temple. Their home is beautiful and they had just moved in and had only been there 2 days before we crashed town. We are very grateful to them and Randy's Mom for making things so comfortable for us.

Bell Brunch

On Sunday morning we got together with Randy's Dad's family. We saw his Uncle, Aunt, Grandma and Cousins. It was the first time They had met Cort and it has been a really long time since we got together. Randy's cousin Cristy is an awesome chef and she made us homemade biscuits and gravy. I told her I didn't care if I puked all night I was going to eat some. (My dairy issues.) We also found it a great time to take some family photos of the cousins all together.

The Reception

The Wedding

 Randy's brother Sam got married the next Saturday in the Sacramento Temple to an awesome girl named Lexi. I took a billion photos. The ceremony was beautiful and touching and the reception that followed was amazing. Very simple but beautiful and classy. And who couldn't dessert and a hot chocolate bar.

 Look at all the bees!!!

Gobble Gobble in Napa

On Thursday we drove down to Napa for Thanksgiving. We had it at Aunt Becky's house. Super good food and gorgeous weather. You couldn't have asked for a better day. It was so good to see everyone. Some were meeting Cort for the first time. After dinner we played our traditional game of Charades. It was a blast. The adults played while we let the kids run wild. We had some pretty funny ones. I had to act out, "Robot, Nazi, Zombie, Apocalypse." Wouldn't you have like to have seen that.
