Dance Recital & Christmas Sunday

Liv had her very first dance recital last week and I can't tell you enough how proud I was!! She did awesome and wasn't scared at all .... all she kept asking was when it was Livie's turn to dance on the stage!

Cheese!

Right before going on the stage

Mommy and Liv

She is the one on the far left :) Yes she pranced around by herself for a little bit and snuck on stage a little early, but I loved it!

Granpma and Grandpa Nordhoff

Scariest picture ever ... but this is the only one we got with Grandma Thain ... that is a gross candy cane she is chomping on ....

Our little family

On Sunday I had to dress the kids in their Christmas outfits ... it's possibly mty favorite thing ever! And this is how Liv felt about it .....

This is maybe a little better .....

The kiddies!

Tis The Season!

I LOVE this time of the year, it is packed full of fun activities and traditions with the kids and I just love it! Liv has been SOOOO fun this year, I am seriously in heaven with it. She is beyond obsessed with Santa right now .... like we have seen him at the mall 6 times .... and is so excited for Christmas!

Breakfast with Santa! My FAVORITE! And yes you Jack's hair stands straight up .... gotta love it :)

Posing in front of Santa's chimmney

A little someone would not stop eating .... loving the eggs, french toast, and cookies ....

Buddy the Elf even made an appearance! Elf is one of Liv's favorite movies right now ....

The kids with Mrs. Claus

SANTA!! Best picture we could get with both of them...

We went and saw the gorgeous lights at Temple Square this year

Holidays

Oh my gosh things have been crazy around here! Fun, but busy!! I haven't posted forever and these are a bunch of random, fun things that we have been doing!

We went to The Festival of Tree's to see Alexa's tree .... yeah picture is on my phone but it was amazing! .... but this picture is us leaving ..... I only had the single stroller and we parked so far away that I made Liv ride in it with Jack ... wow

Thanksgiving! Love these two!!!

Liv is OBSESSED with purses right now ....

This is my favorite .... she is looking at the Black Friday Ad's, starting early!!

Putting up our tree was so much fun!! Good thing there is not too much on it because Jack is crazy and pulls everything off all day long ....

Oh love him ....

We went to the Utah basketball game and had a blast, I think Jack liked it more then Liv!

We are way in too Frosty's ... snowmen ... at our house and the second it snowed Matt and Liv were outside building him! Too bad he melted .....

What happens to poor Jack about 10 times a day .....

Halloween

Halloween was seriously so much fun this year with Liv! She loved every second and actually knew what was going on this year :) Having kids makes holidays so much more fun!!

Liv getting so excited to go to dance in her costume!

Carving pumpkins with Daddy the night before

Loving it! And yes she is in her underwear .... we are cool like that!

The Hot Dog and the Princess ready to go trick or treating!

Gotta love them....

All bundled and ready to go! And yes she wanted to take two buckets :)

Poor Jack all bundled up!

Trick or Treating!! We had to convince her that Cinderella wear's a coat and boots when it is cold outside ....

The loot

Halloween Festivities

We have been doing so many fun Halloween things lately, I just love it! This time of the year is the best. We stopped at the pumpkin patch at the last second one night and as you can tell the kids were worn out! But Liv had such a fun time picking out her pumpkin with Daddy!

Don't they look happy? :)

Our sweet, sleepy boy

Gotta love these two

This past weekend we went to Corn Belly's with Britt and Bry and their kids and it seriously was a blast!! Our kids have so much fun together and there was SO much stuff for them to do there!

Liv was dying when she saw the Pumpkin Princess
