Our Christmas Haps

We had a lot of fun having our own christmas with our little family. We took Lyla to see Santa, she was really cute in line, but the second we sat her in Santa's lap total stink eye to everyone.


Santa's helpers brought some new PJs for sweet Lyla. Her she is in front of her christmas tree with her new jams.


Trevor also got us a nice new fire place. It was so nice being able to have a fire going all night Christmas eve and coming downstairs Christmas morning to a fire. You are such a clever man...you Trev.


Also Oregon got hit pretty hard with snow. Now this is nothing compared to Salt Lake snow, but here in Oregon they don't have the proper snow equipment to clear any streets. So you get a bit of snow and the whole city shuts down. All the while a few classes canceled, a few take home/open book finales and it's still snowing. It snowed for a week straight. The biggest storm in about 10 years. The roads were a giant ice rink. The roads were rutted from everyone driving and getting out of the ruts to turn was almost impossible. You would fishtail every time and a few times we missed our turn because we were stuck in the ruts. Well here are a few pics where we live. I didn't get any pictures at the peek of it all, so a bunch of snow had already melted by this time.



Lyla's first snow!! I think she loved it...It's got to be the Utah in her.

I heard about that storm and wondered how it was going for you guys. The fireplace looks great! We'll have to look into that program or whatever it was. I miss having a fireplace in our house. Lyla looks super cute as ever. :-)
