Ok, Here's for Jef and Julie!

Actually, we don't really have lives outside of blogging but we happened to be in St. George for the week and never made it to a computer. Last week I ended up going to St. George to babysit my sisters children while they went on a cruise with my Mom and Dad. Now that I think about it that wasn't a very fair deal! Next time I am going to only say yes to me going on the cruise with them! But really, Hallie and Annie had a blast. They absolutely loved being able to wander on their own and explore all the different sand hills and animals that the backyard offered. Plus, they were never without a friend cause they always had a cousin nearby.
Janae and Kerry so kindly let us borrow their old tree for Christmas. We didn't have any where to store it so we ended up putting it up early. I know, Thanksgiving isn't even over yet but it was the only solution to our small apartment. Hallie helped decorate it and Annie helped undecorate it. Good thing Hallie and I were faster than her. Plus, we had the wonderful help of Tyler. He was home with the flu yesterday so we enlisted him in the putting on the lights part. He did an awesome job!

This morning Hallie was watching one of her favorite cartoons (My friends, Tigger and Pooh) and she decided that she was going to be Darby, the little girl in the cartoon. So she went and got her hat and started doing everything that Darby did. It was so cute. Right now Hallie is going through the stage of feeling beautiful. Every time she hears the words "Pretty" or "Beautiful" she turns to see who is talking about her. It is so cute. I just hope it doesn't go to her head!

Whew, we really missed you guys! Glad to hear that you were doing something fun. Your tree and your daughter Hallie are both looking beautiful and it seems like everyone around is putting up their stuff early this year. I keep feeling panicked that I don't have my Christmas shopping done, then I remember that this is the earliest I've ever even started it before. Hope that Tyler gets feeling better. Now we need to get going on some new posts so we don't have to eat our words! Happy Thanksgiving!!
