Winter Fun

As we all know it has been snowing like crazy these last few weeks. So we found a pair of snow boots for MaKenna and I. Yesterday we decided to try them out and went and played in the back yard. Here are just a few pictures of our fun time.

The Little Tree That Could

This past Sunday we went with some of our friends to cut us down a Christmas Tree. We have done this for the last couple of Christmas's. It is so much fun, not only getting the tree that YOU picked out, but just spending time up in the mountains. Seeing the beauty that this world can offer and spending time with family and friends. So this year our friends had some property that they were nice enough to let us take a tree out of. So we get up there and we walk around some and nothing is really jumping out saying cut me down. So we continued further and further into their property. I eventually take off my own way and climb down a hill. There I started to take pictures of some trees that I think would work. So here is tree number 1:

Tree number 2:

And tree number 3:


Which one did I pick? Well as I was walking around I saw one tree and then turned around and down the trail was a tree that I thought looked just perfect. So I made my decision. Dan didn't say not to get it so I chose number 3. I thought it looked good. This is the one that said cut me down and let me be part of your Christmas. So that is what we did.

When we got home I was excited to get it up. And then I noticed that it wasn't as full as I remembered it being in the forest. In fact it is kinda sparse. But that is ok I love it anyway. Its not about the tree to me, its about the great memories that we make, the fun and time spent together. So here is our 2008 Christmas Tree.

Halloween Fun

Ok I know this is a little late...but at least I am getting it done. This year for Halloween was so much fun. We got dressed up and went trick-or-treating with some of our good friends. The first house we went to MaKenna didn't quite get it. When the door opened she charged right in and was pretty upset when I had to pull her out. Then onto the next house where she started to get the hang of it. It was so cute to see her walk from house to house. They are such a delight to have!! After trick-or-treating we went to a good friends house and partied it up. Dan won us a couple of massages by eating some pretty gross looking stuff. I am so glad that I have a husband that will eat just about anything ;) Below are some pictures from the night.

Fillen in!

So i know most everyone that looks at this page is expecting Kim to be writing something but not today my friends ohhhhh no, today it is I........Danny-boy. And if you don't know who that is well then you probably don't know my wife as well as you think. Anyway on to the matters at hand.
Thanksgiving was just here and as always did not disapoint, but then again how can stuffing your face and watching football ever be bad? This one started out as most with us waking up and having a big breakfast (biskets and gravy) and then heading to the in-laws (kim's family) and hanging out for abit before going to mine and eating so much i wanted to puke especialy when doing dance dance revolution for hours and playing ping pong. "sorry no pictures" But this thanksgiving we did something i've never heard of but was one of the greatest ideas ever known to man...... PRE THANKSGIVING DINNER!!!! what is that you ask, well this year it was me my two brothers and our familys meeting over at my brother in provos house and having ribeye steaks and shimp and just having a great time chatting and playing games. It was great times infinity. The food was better then i can describe. And the company wasn't bad either ;)
