Christmas Break

So we are finally back from our month long vacation! (Well...we've been back 2 weeks now, I'm just slow) We had so much fun with family and friends! We spent time in Utah and Idaho so here are a ton of pictures completely our of order of some of the fun things we did!

Saylor and Oakley got in a lot of cousin time which they loved!!
Here is a pic of all the girl cousins hanging out.
Saylor and Oakley in their matching Christmas dresses, I love when they match!

Basketball game up in Salt Lake with Ty's fam
I celebrated my 27th b-day in Utah, oh man I'm old! We went to this fun gymnastic place and got to play on all the mats and tramps. Saylor loved it of coarse.
Here she is being brave and jumping into the foam pit.

We went with Matt, Sarah, Essie and Autumn on the Provo River Cruise. There were Christmas lights everywhere and Santa even showed up on a canoe!
Oakley just being cute...
We got to eat at brick oven...my most favorite restaurant ever! Saylor and Essie played and played with their balloons and had so much fun together! This is actually a very monumental photo because Saylor and Essie haven't gotten along in the past. (Much to the dismay of their best friend mommies) This trip they were the best of friends and it made us so happy!!
Saylor snuggling with Grandpa
Dinner at Red Robin with some great high school friends.
Sarah, Bre, Me, Chrissy and Perky
I had to catch this moment when I saw my little girls actually playing together on the floor...so cute!
Saylor had been telling everyone that Santa was bringing her a Tiana doll and a dollhouse for Christmas. Christmas is seriously the best with Saylor. She is so animated and excited about every present, even before she knows what it is. The first thing she opened was actually princess lip gloss and she was ecstatic...she carried them around everywhere for days and even insisted on sleeping with them. She was also very excited about her Tiana doll...
Trying on her new Minnie outfit complete with purse, ears, glasses and slippers.
She had to have a Tiana dress to match her doll of coarse!
Grandma and Oakley
Here is what Oakley will look like in a few years when she gets some hair...haha!
We had a surprise visit from Santa on Christmas Eve!
Oakley and Skyler checking each other out.
We went ice skating on a big group date
We got in lots of Matt and Sarah time

Making sugar cookies at Grandma's
We had a super fun night with Matt and Sarah at the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert. These guys are the best, we couldn't ask for greater best friends.
Before the concert we met up with Jules and Nate for dinner and we got to meet their adorable twins!!
And of coarse, we went up to Temple Square with the family to see all the beautiful lights
We also got to spend lots of time with my sister Kirstie which was totally awesome. She is in hair school so we definitely enjoyed all her new skills! She weaved my hair, gave me eye lash extensions, cut my bangs and also gave Ty a hair cut. She is seriously the most gorgeous, kind and fun person I know. We miss her already!

We had such a fun time but it is good to be home. Now just to get through these awful winter months!

Looks like a fun holiday! Your girls are as cute as ever and the picture of Oakley with the wig is hilarious!! Sad that we couldn't catch up over the break, we'll have to get together when we go to Kirksville for testing.
