Christmas '09

We had such a great Christmas this year... hope you all did too. It is always so wonderful to spend time with family. Extra fun for us this year since Jared's brother is on his mission we got to talk to him on the phone which Addison loved. Everything Addison opened she said... oh wow I always wanted this... even if she had never seen it before. She got a pink screwdriver (this is what she asked Santa for) from Heather, well an entire pink tool set including a pink hammer and level. Right after she opened it she took it right down stairs and started building a door frame (cause what else would a 3 year old girl build? I mean really?? lol) She also got a kareoke machine... she has not stopped singing. And a lot of other pink things... lol!! She was so much fun this year... and was totally spoiled. But every cute little girl deserves to be spoiled sometimes... right?! :) Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night :) The cake for Santa, Ms Claus and the Reindeer... who knew they loved Strawberry cake to much??

We had to turn on the music so she could sing while taking this picture... lol.

Aunt Tricia and Addison rockin out to Santa Claus is Coming to Town...

Butterfield Christmas Party 2009!!

We had our Butterfield Christmas party last night. It was a hit... Santa and Ms. Claus came and they were just adorable and made the party. Are they not the cutest Santa and Ms Claus you have ever seen?? They told the kids they needed a helper that was very strong.... Addison flexed her muscles and she got to go up and jingle Santa's bells while we sang jingle bells. Hunter got to help be Rudolph. He was a good sport. When Addison sat on Santa's lap she told him she wanted a pink screwdriver (i know weird right?!) and a kareoke machine... lets hope she was a good girl!! :) Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you all have a good one!!! :)

My cute little Addison....

So some of you have already heard this... but I just have to tell ya!! Ever since my brother had his baby and Jared's sister had hers Addison has been walking around telling people of her brother and sister up in heaven that are waiting to come down. First it started as just a brother... then it turned into a brother and sister. She will tell anyone. It is sometimes embarrassing. Anyway she just gets so excited. She will even tell me how much she misses them and how much they miss her (I know sad huh?!)Well a couple weeks ago she informed me that we needed to get another crib because the brother and sister were coming down together. Ahhhhh... right?! I mean I know she is only 3 but still. But again it has changed... a couple nights ago she told me that we no longer have a brother... only a sister cause the brother had to go to another family. (Jesus called him and told him he had to go to another family...lol) And just now she told me that her sister already went down the slide from heaven and is in my tummy. LOL! (and no I am not announcing... no baby here!!! :) ) And yes that is how babies get in their mommies tummies... they go down a big slide. haha! I just love her imagination.... she is crazy and I just love her to pieces... my life would be so boring with out her!!!! and even if it isn't her imagination and some sort of inspiration.... be are gonna believe she is making it up :)

Disney Princesses on Ice...

Today I was lucky enough to go to Disney on Ice Classic Princess with the most special, beautiful Princesses.... Addison, Shae and Emma. It was seriously the best day I have had in a long time. Is it just me or is something just magical about the disney stories? I have never seen addison so entertained. When the gate opened up so you could see the Castle Addison stared in amazement. It was an awesome experience... Thanks mom for taking us. Addison did fall asleep for the ending... poor little girl was exhausted. After that we took to princesses to The Garden for lunch. They were to excited to see the Temple. I am so glad i have these special princesses in my life!!! (one of my other favorite princesses, Sloane, was there too but my pics didn't turn out. So more pics to come...)

Bella....

So... Addison has a new puppy! I know I am crazy... I don't even like dogs!!!!! But Bella is pretty cute. Addison loves her and Bella follows her everywhere... and if Bella isn't following Addison, Addison is following her! So hopefully I don't regret this decision... but Jared and Addison love her... K I love her too :). (sorry for the bad pics they were taken on my phone)

Fall photo shoot...

I decided that since Jared's mom spent so much time making this beautiful halloween costume we should go get some pics taken. It was so much fun in all the leaves (as you can tell...lol) Thanks Mitch!!!!

And while we were there... we had to take reg pics too of course. Murray Park is seriously so pretty in the fall... love it!!

Ward Party!!

Tonight was our ward party. It was so fun. So glad Addison has her BFF in our ward. Are they not the cutest mid evil princess and butterfly?? precious!!! :)

And here is my over dramatic Mid Evil Princess... :)
