Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow...

*So our blog has kinda turned into a once a month update. i guess this is DECEMBER! where did the year go? we are so excited to have Christmas with Broadie this year! We have been keeping busy this month. We got our first snow storm a couple weeks ago and we got about 6 inches. We took Broadie sledding and out to play in the back yard. He loved the snow and being outside but he wasn't a huge fan of how immobile his snow suit made him. He would fall down and just scream because he couldn't get himself back up. He reminded us of Randy off of the "Christmas Story". These are a few shots we got throughout the day...

Broadie LOVED to eat the snow. He would bite it and pull a yuck face and then say "mmm"
The three of us!

Mommy and Broad

Dad and Broad

*Next thing was our visit from Santa. The fire dept invited Santa out and so we went to visit... I might add that Mr. Clause was really Big Papa so we thought that Broadie would do okay but needless to say he was NOT a fan! He was more into driving the fire trucks of course.

Mom, Broad and Santa.

*Last but not least... UTAH for CHRISTMAS! YAY! Zac has worked the day after christmas for like the last three years so we haven't been able to come!!! This year we packed up and headed off. We left the 23rd and will be back the 26th. Short trip in crumby weather but so well worth it!

Broadie had to wear Zac's hat the whole way!

*Hmm, a few things have happened lately so i will just do an update on everyone!

ZAC: has been staying busy working, working, working. He is still doing Farmington AND Cortez. He has been so busy lately and absolutely loving it! He is also now the second counselor in the 3rd Ward Elder's Quarm. He seems too have a miniature shadow everywhere he goes and is being a very good teacher as to just what toys are the coolest.

CHELSEA: is always chasing one of her boys around. I am still staying at home with Broadie and i couldn"t be any happier about it! It's the best job in the world!I am also the new 2nd counselor in the young women's. I would be in charge of the beehive but since we only have one young women in our ward we all share. i am really having fun with it!

BROADIE: has turned into quite the jabber box. His vocabulary has really expanded. His newest words are Papa, Pop, Jaynee, socks and he says Tank, Taitor and Pixie! He loves anything with a motor and is constantly Vroom vrooming everything with wheels! He is so much fun!

*Well i think that is all for now. I will try to post some Christmas pictures tom!

November family fun

This year for Thanksgiving we went to St. George to my grandma Lynn's house. We had delicious food and alot of fun visiting. I of course left my camera in the car until the last day so i didn't get many picts... here are my two favs!

Broadie and Grandpa wrestling.

Broad and Dad swingin. Enjoying the nice weather.

(I love the leaves in the back)

After St. George we came up to my parents house and on Saturday we went to Tanya's baby shower. It was so much fun. Mikkell and Maclee were there and Mac and Broad became such good little friends. There were playing football and chasing each other. SoOoO cute!

These next few are my favorites that i got...


*Grandma Mc with the babes*

*Skylee and Elle*

It was fun to get together with my mom's family at the shower. I loved seeing everyone... We are up in Utah till Wednesday but i don't think anything is planned so we will see what happens!

Broadie Boy

I thought that since i am going home tomorrow and back to life without internet that i should update on Broadie. He is turning into quiet the personality. I can't believe how much he has learned in the last few months. He...

*says quack quack and points out any duck he sees.

*dances or should i call it head banging...lol..thanks to his dad.

*has found a new obsession with the toilet...loves to put the lid down, flush, and stick anything and everything in.

*learned how to somersault and cracks himself up doing it

*hates closed doors when he is on the outside and loves to close doors when he is on the inside

*has figured out that his little pointer finger is just the same size as his nostril and it fits right up it. he doesn't really pick he just sits with it up there.

*loves to throw, kick, hit...anything to do with a ball.

*is quiet the cleaner. he loves to throw everything in the trash included clothes, toys and whatever he gets his hands on. he also tends to get my broom and or mop out at least twice a day. loves the vaccuum except when it's actually on then its way to scary.

*has developed so much love for his sissy (pixie). he looks for her every morning when he wakes up and loves to play with her. he gives her hugs and kisses all the time.

*has started giving kisses although they are still open mouthed and tongue out. ha ha

*loves shoes. if you don't put a pair on first thing then when he finds a pair he brings them and wants them on. it doesn't matter whose they are.

*says "hi" to everyone and anyone

*LOVES his books!

Zac and I are having so much fun watching him grow and teaching him new things. we are so thankful for what a huge blessing he is and how much laughter and love he has added to our lives. We love you Broadie boy!

Trick or Treat

We had such a fun time trick or treating. Broad caught right on and then he loved going into houses and getting his treat. He also loved his costume, he wanted to wear it all night!

The other morning i went to check on Broadie and this is what i found.lol. Looks comfy huh?

pict overload

The adventures of Zac

Well it seems that our blog is all about what our family has been doing together but since Zac is still in Colorado this week and we are in Utah i guess we will blog about what Zac has been up too. On Tuesday morning i sent Zac a text to say good morning and he replied "guess what" so of course i asked "what". He said "i haven't been to bed yet". So what could Zac be doing ALL night you ask? Well... EXACTLY WHAT HE DREAMS ABOUT! He was so excited. This was his first fire in Cortez... yes he has been on almost a full year and this is his FIRST fire. lol. What a cutie. I love him so much and i am glad he was able to stay busy while we have been gone!

On a different note... FAMILY PICTS ARE DONE! Check back tomorrow for the big pict overload post. Zac is bringing the cd with him!

Santaquin Pumpkin Patch

Today my grandma, mom and i took Broadie out to the red barn to ride to the pumpkin patch. it was nap time and so he was a little serious the whole time...

Last i have to add this pict, the other day Broad unrolled the whole roll of tin foil, pulled everything out of the kitchen drawers, emptied the wipes, and threw about a million toys in the trash... well i was telling my mom how much he was being a terror and all she said was " oh i can't wait till he is at my house making messes". Well it didn't take long before he was in the lazy susan pulling food out....

more messes to come i am sure...until then.
