Christmas Lights


This weekend Eric and I went with my family to look at christmas lights. Brayden loves lights and we knew we just had to take him this year. We decided to try something different this year than Zoo lights. We heard about St. Nick lights and like how some of the proceeds went to Phoenix Childrens Hospital, so we gave it a shot. I am definitely glad we went, but was a little disappointed. Online it said it was the biggest light display in the southwest and it really wasnt that big at all. But it was just enough for the kids and they were happy. The lights werent for me and I am glad we went :) They also had a little train that went around the display and the kids loved it. Brayden cried when he had to get off. Ahhhh my child and his love for moving things!!!!

Cali and Disneyland


This past weekend we went to california with Erics family. Brett got us all tickets to see The Princess and the Frog screening. It was really cute and I was so proud of Brayden for watching half of the movie before needing to leave. Mickey came to visit us before the movie began and all the disney princesses were waiting for all of us after the show. It was so cute to see all the little girls in their outfits meeting the princesses. It was so cute I cried. Can anyone say pregnancy hormones??!! They are out of control this time ;)Brayden even took part in meeting them and it was just as cute! He loved snow white :) and even got a kiss from her.... he then proceeded to go over to visit Bell. I think he enjoyed going up the steps more then wanting to see her because once we were ready to take a picture he wanted down so he could climb. My typical boy! (I wouldnt want it any other way though)



The next day we went to Disneyland. We went on some rides, but since we got there later and it was soooo busy we didnt go on many. When you have a little kid it is definitely necessary to spend 2 or 3 days there! But he loved the lights and its a small world. I have to say my favorite part was the fireworks display and snow at the end. It was so magical even I believed :)

Cabin and SNOW!!!




The day after Thanksgiving my family went up to the cabin for the 3 day weekend! It is always so relaxing and beautiful up there. The last day we were there we woke up to a snow storm. It was so beautiful (words cant describe) I have seen it snow before, but nothing like this. It was coming down hard and since it was the first snow fall we started to see everything turn white. This was Braydens first time seeing snow and he loved it. We didnt have snow boots for him yet so the next best thing were his elmo slippers over his footy pjs and socks. Eric carried him most of the time so his feet would get wet.





They ate snow together and Eric built brayden his first little snow man.
