A New Adventure...

Well no more renting for us. YEAH! We took the plung and bought a house. We are way excited, especially Travis to put his man skills to work. The house needs a lot of work but has a lot of potential. I will definately post some pictures when I get a chance, but for now I guess I have to focus on insurance, turning on utilities, signing a lot of papers, and getting all the supplies for the fix up. Can't wait to show you our, "Diamond in the Rough."

Easton and Snow


Easton was born last year in October so he didn't get to play in the snow much, so this year is his big year to be introduced to snow. Every time he sees the snow falling he just stares with wonder. Sometimes I wish I was a little more like him and would take the time to marvel at all of the wonderful creations around us. Kids are good reminders of what we should be doing. Since the snow has been crazy in Logan, I decided to take Easton outside to build a snow man, but he pretty much just wanted to eat the snow. What can I do...

Snowmobiling...


Snowmobiling is pretty big in my family so of course we took the kids... Easton fell asleep on the snowmobile on the way to the cabin so he was out most the time. (Bottom right picture of him sleeping on the bed). Travis and I were in charge of hauling all the kids up in the car so we stopped for some suckers and played the quiet game to keep the peace :) After we arrived at the cabin we had hot cocoa. Grandma and Grandpa decided to stay at the cabin with the kids while Ryan, Chuck, Travis, and I went snowmobiling to the top of Molly's Nipple (mtn. by our cabin). On the way up snowmobiling our face shields kept on getting frozen over because it was so cold. The snow was great and the ride was fun minus the freezing of our eyebrows every time we took off our helmets. Gotta Love It!

Merry Christmas!


This year we spent Christmas with the Roberts side of the family (my family) in Salina. The night before Christmas we had appetizers and treats, played games, and read the Christmas story to the little kids. After the kids were nestled in bed then the fun began, Travis and I put together all of Easton's toys, which was kind of exciting. he loves his little car and Elmo that his grandparents gave him. We played Karaoke, listened to Kade play his ukulele (however you spell it), and woke up at about 5:30am for the chaos to begin. Travis' favorite part of Christmas with the Roberts' is the omelets for breakfast. I have to agree they are pretty yummy.

The Lights On Temple Square

I know Travis' eyes are closed, but it is the only picture of our little family to remember our Temple Square visit. The lights were pretty as always, and Easton looks like he can't breath because we bundled him up so tight. With all the Robert's family it was a little hectic, but fun :)
