Legoland






We spent the week after Christmas in Las Vegas and California. While in California, we spent a fun day at Legoland with Emi and Chloe. The girls helped Elle get dressed in the morning (hence the outfit choice) and so they all looked like sisters. People would stop me and say, "You're girls are so darling." I didn't bother to explain they are cousins, it was fun pretending we had three kids for a day.
Legoland was pretty fun too! I loved seeing all the creations out of Lego's. The Elephant really spit out water and the NYC skyline (as well as most of the other creations) was made entirely by hand using regular Lego's you can buy from the store.

Christmas Day

Christmas morning was just right. We spent the morning opening presents that Santa had left and eating delicious food. Elle loved all her presents but her most favorite thing she received was her dress up clothes from Grandma. After every present she wanted to try on a new dress.



I asked Elle to show me her pretty princess dress and this is pose she did. I guess she thinks that what they do in the movies.



The delicious fruit pizza my mom made and I ate ALL of!

Polar Express




To get in the spirit of things, we decided to go up to the Heber Creeper and do their Polar Express night. Maybe not the best idea with a two-year-old that wants to run and play but it was a festive way to celebrate the holiday.

Snow Day





The first big snowfall I bundled Elle up in her snow gear and we made a snowman, ate the snow and attempted to make snow angles. The snow angles didn't go over so well and Elle ate an eye off of the snowman but it was still a fun day in the cold.

Family Photos









My talented friend Erin took our family photos this year and we couldn't be happier with them. She made choosing a Christmas card photo a difficult choice this year.
