Quick trip to Phoenix

It was time for Kimber's trip to the CF center in Phoenix.
The appt. went great...the Dr's all expressed she is doing great!
Now if we can make it through flu season!
We always go to Bass Pro shop while we are there and this time was no exception.
They had Santaland all set up for the kids and our girls LOVED it!
Especially the Carousel.

Holdyn was especially excited to get the moose ;)
They had crafts, free picts with Santa (That I need to scan because they are super cute)
and games to play! It was a great way to burn off some time and energy before her appointment!
We also had to stop to play in the snow as we drove over the Kaibab. The girls kept
asking us to stop so they could get some to eat after we played.

We also took a little detour...this picture does NOT do our situation justice. We were good and stuck! We slid off the dirt road on a little side detour and luckily, Josh was in the area about an hour later and with some heavy chains, shovels, and man power we got out and hit the road to Phoenix!
We also got there just in time to run by the Mesa Temple to see their Christmas lights.
The girls LOVED it and were so excited to see all of the 'sparkling' lights.
Plus it was nice to walk around and not be too cold looking at Christmas lights!

We had a fun and quick trip and we are super happy that Little Kimber is doing so well
with her CF. Go Kimber!

Thanksgiving 2011

Here is the update of Thanksgiving Day! Holdyn and Kimber wouldn't leave Grandma Baker alone in the kitchen. They were the "BIGGEST" helpers ever!

Making the DELICIOUS rolls....
and the apple pie!!
Of course we can't have a late night snack of pie without ice cream!
One of the favorite Thanksgiving activities for our kids is to
play with the cousins in the leaves!!!
Holdyn and Courtney loved the trees!

Ben wins the "push as many kids in the swings as fast as you can" award!
Addi, Martha, Brooklyn, Brenda, and Anna
snacking on the cheeseball.
Mason and Kimber couldn't wait until the feast began!

Mason sneaking some cool whip after dinner.
More fun in the leaves...Kimber and Annie...Ready, set....GO!

Taking a quick break and snack before playing more!
Kyle in the leaves!
We, of course, couldn't leave St. George without going to visit the Andrus'
and the Baker's to ride bikes and see Katelyn's new puppies!


After we got home we put up the tree!! The girls had a blast and as soon as we got home they had friends wanting to play with them and help with the decorations.
We had a great Thanksgiving weekend!
