Here's what we have been up to in the last couple months:
For the fall season, i made pumpkin seed trail mix, to give to family, friends and neighbors. I got this great recipe off of Martha Stewart's website.
Thanksgiving in Colorado
Abe's whole family went up to Colorado for Thanksgiving. His sister Aileen and her family live there. It was so nice having everyone together and we always have so much fun!
On Thanksgiving day we had a little soccer match
Me and my sister-in-law, Edith
We thought it would be really funny if stuff our nephew, Jordan, in this storage box
We love our technology!
Our new niece, Emelia! ( for some reason we didn't have that many pictures of her awake)
Abe and Karla in Boulder
Us with our niece and nephew Mercedes and Bowen(Bowen was glued to the iphone pretty much the entire time we were there!)
Introducing my new nephews, Sawyer Jack and Judson James TippetsAfter a long and hard pregnancy(poor Andrea), they were born Christmas eve afternoon. They were having a little hard time breathing ,so they will stay in the hospital for the next couple weeks, but they will be fine! Congratulations Tyler and Andrea!
Christmas
I got this cute S'more kit idea from here
Christmas was so good! Every year Abe always get me really good gifts, so this year i felt like i needed to step it up! I found a pair of matching(his and hers) 1971 Schwinn bikes on craigslist! Aren't they so cute?!
Here are some of the gifts Abe got me:
A letter pressed poster of the Salt Lake Temple
A retro clock radio
And some really good jewelry
The day after Christmas, we drove down to Tucson to meet up with one of my really good friends, Hannah and her husband Robbie. We wanted to go to the Kartchnern caverns, but apparently they were all booked up until Thursday(who knew they were so popular?) we ended up going to colossal caves instead. we love our caves. We had a really fun day, and we are going to miss them. I guess that means we need to take a trip out to Washington D.C. to visit them! right, Hannah?
Happy New Year!
I think this is going to be a really good year! There are a lot of exciting things coming up and I am so happy to be starting another year with Abe! I decided I'm not going to make any new years resolutions, i'm just going to try and do better than the last, live life ,and be happy!here is some video clips from our thanksgiving day soccer game!
