Missionaries Round Two...

 Just over three years ago my brother and sister went into the MTC within a month of each other. So our family had two missionaries out at the same time. 

Last month, my twin brothers left on their missions as well. They left four days before Christmas, but we are so happy those chose to serve a mission.

Paul went to serve in Phoenix, Arizona.

Adam went to serve in Fresno, California. 

I have started a blog for these two (that I have yet to post anything to), so check back soon to see their letters and pictures!

Isn't my mom the cutest thing ever?

gingerbread houses

Get ready for some Christmas updates, because even though it happened almost a month ago, this girl needs to do some catch up in blog land.

My house. 

 Adam's house

 We are so much fun.

deck these halls...

One of our family traditions on Christmas is to make gingerbread houses. My tradition? Putting as much candy on it as I can, so I munch on it later.

Rocked it again.

 

More pictures of the rest of the sibs houses coming next week. 

Santa and his Reindeer...

Hubster brought Chubbs to my work to visit Santa and his reindeer. 

Chubbs l.o.v.e.d. the reindeer. 

Good thing there was a gate around the reindeer or he probably would have tried to climb on their backs.

  Chubbs - Hat: H&M ($5ish). Jacket: Columbia via TJ Maxx ($10). Shirt: Free via hand-me-down. Jeans: The Children's Place ($0 with coupons). Shoes: Vans ($35). 

Me - Sweater: Kenzie via TJ Maxx ($25). Shirt: Shade (old). Jeans: American Eagle (super old). Shoes: Puma (super, super old).

Santa, however, was a totally different story. I wasn't able to get him to even let go of me when I tried to put him on Santa's lap. 

Santa did however get him to give him the rock. 

We will take it. 

Happy 2012!
