First post of 2011.

So I just browsed back over last year and realized I had a sad year of posts last year.
I blame it on the fact that we saw the 5 people who actually read this blog a lot last year. (yea for a job with the airlines). I do realize that it is nice to see new pictures and I love when my sisters post new pictures. (Hint, Hint, Heather). So here are a bunch of pictures from the last little while, mostly Christmas stuff.


Some recent pics of Kailee. The pink pajama picture is what I found her enjoying the morning after Christmas. Nothing beats chocolate for breakfast! The ever classic spaghetti face and the sleeping one is the night she couldn't make it to her room and she crashed in the hall way. It was so sad but of course I took a picture first.


Clayton's work Christmas party.

Sledding in Utah with cousins. After driving around for hours in a hot car all bundled for the snow we finally found some and only had to hop one fence past a no trespassing sign for our snow fix.

Christmas pictures taken for a card that never happened. Maybe next year.

Some family pictures at our 1st family Christmas party in a LONG time.

More from the party mostly white elephant fun.


We finally got to share our gingerbread decorating tradition with cousins in Utah and Oahu.

Kailee's Birthday party in Oahu.

Kailee's first birthday.

I do have to mention she had a rough day on her actual birthday. She was working on some molars and was a little congested. She fell down the stairs while T.J. was holding her. Kudos to T.J. who was proud to inform that he held her tight and rolled so that he would fall first and Kailee was fine although she got a good scare. She also got a hold of a habanero and took a huge bite. She then proceed to eat an ice cream bar in less than 60 seconds. It was a tough day and we joked she was lucky she survived her first birthday. Next year will be better. Right?
