Total Chaos!

I have been reminded to put a new post up, however I am only going to be able to manage a small post tonight considering our busy christmas schedule! I don't think I have posted since around halloween so my upcoming posts will include halloween, thanksgiving, Hawaii trip, Emma's 6th birthday, and plenty of other random hilarious events! So in the meantime have a very Merry Christmas!.... stay tuned

Live it up!

Happy Birthday Travis!

Happy Birthday President Hansen!

And just in case you are wondering it is not

an armadillo, it is a disco ball.

Chelsea, my girl what a night! We rock!

Was the majority of people born in the fall or something? We have been at a Birthday bash about every 6 days in the past month. With Chase's coming and then Halloween, Thanksgiving, Emma's B-day, Christmas... and so on, is it ever going to slow down? I can clearly tell the answer will be NO! The crazy thing is I think we are okay with that. We love having fun parties to go to and holidays to decorate for. If it wasn't for those ever so frequent events we would be plagued with a very monotonous life. I mean the kids enjoy eating sweets to their hearts content and the shopping and crafts that go hand in hand with such fun holidays and events. I have learned a truly wonderful lesson through this busy time, and that is to enjoy where I am and what I am doing NOW. Because one day I will want to go back to the days with little fingerprints all over my glass and play-doh in my carpet just to love on my babies again, and guess what I won't be able to. My new theory live it up & make great memories because the cost, mess, & exhaustion is totally worth it!

What don't we do?

Emma feels the need to do a hide-and-seek session before bedtime!

We do make sure Mom goes out on her Girls Nights because they are a must!

Taylor likes to do fun crafts with her girlfriends when they come over to play!

We do want our family to be aware of our progress on our award charts!

We do look to find silly situations to take pictures in!

Apparently, we do ride bikes inside!

We do enjoy having great friends over for fun play-dates!

We do go to Grandma's for fun family nights where we eat, swim, and relax!

We do go to Birthday Parties (sometimes every week)!

I guess the only thing we don't do is lead a boring life! And we like it that way! :)
