I took my girls to the nutcracker for the first time this year.
they loved it. we went with my mom and sister Lynzi, Haeli,Peyton,Taryn and Bryten.
After the Ballet we went up on stage and got to have a cookie and punch party with the Sugar plum fairies. It was really fun and the girls still talk about how much fun they had.

We are old fashion and love to still cut down our own Christmas tree.
we will never ever have a fake tree in this house or any house we live in.
The girls love going and finding a tree and this year Uncle Zach and Tina Preston and Lilly went with us and we had so much fun.

Kayli turned 5 this year, and I can not believe how big she is getting.
she had a Barbie and the diamond castle birthday.
she had a blast and got lots of fun stuff.

This year I’ve taken Kiara and Kayli skiing up to Alta a few times. They mostly love it, Kayli more than Kiara, but I think they both have fun (I know I do). Next year I’ll have them strap on boards and we’ll do a season of boarding and see which one they like better. I plan on taking Marcee up snowboarding this year as well as she thinks she will like that better than skiing. We shall see .
