Kitties in the Holiday Spirit

Janey and Olivia absolutely love dressing up for the holidays! Any chance they get to put on a special outfit, they'll jump (literally) at the opportunity.

First up: Halloween!

Being camera shy :)


Olivia really didn't mind wearing this at all

Christmas outfits

Next up: Cute pics of everyday life

Janey is so funny. She loves being held like this. She'll grab onto my leg and that's how I know she wants to be picked up. I can just walk around the house and she'll stay put. She had never drunk from a cup while in this position.

I was playing a game and I looked down and Olivia was doing this.



I think she found a new sleeping technique. It's the dangle-legs-off-the-couch position.


They really are best friends (sisters)

Who am I kidding... Of course they don't like getting dressed up, but we don't care. Sometimes they are naughty babies so we think this makes up for it. And we don't make them leave it on. It's just to humor us.

Temple Groundbreaking

On November 13th my city had a Temple groundbreaking. It started at 11:30 a.m, but my friend and I were there to claim our spots at 6:45 a.m. We pulled up thinking there would be more people just like us who had the bright idea. NO!! We were the only ridiculous ones who'd get up that early! (ended up being on the 3rd row cause the press got the first two. lame.) I had a stake thing I had to be at from 7-9 so I had to leave my friend for a while. I brought snacks and my ipod for games, but with taking pictures and people watching the time ended up going by fast. Here's the eventful day in pictures. Enjoy!

Before any construction back in July

It was so bright!




Great friends


No zooming in here :)



The wives

Third to last guy (blue tie) on right is my Stake President

Loads of people

They had a helicopter fly by and take an areal shot

What I'm looking forward to!

Trevor's Wedding

I went to my brother's wedding two weeks ago. I'm so happy for him! It was a fast trip, but it was fun to be around family for a bit.

I'm famous!!

I went to the Gilbert Temple groundbreaking and my friend was interviewed by the news! I don't say anything, but at least I'm on camera!

Another One

I finished another puzzle I got from the dollar store.

Water Park

Back in July I went to a water park with a friend and her client, who is 7 yrs. old. It was a lot of fun! We mostly stayed in the wave pool.

Bread Pudding

For a while now I've been talking about my mom's yummy bread pudding she use to make on Sundays. Well, I finally asked her for the recipe and made it tonight; also on a Sunday.

lemon sauce

I think I could have done a better job, but being my first time it turned out pretty well overall.

San Diego

The last part of July I went to San Diego with a friend. We went to Sea World, Old Town San Diego, the Mormon Battalion, the San Diego Temple, the beach, and saw the USS Midway. Here are a few pics from the trip.

First time trying to do a full french braid with my hair.
