Which doesn't belong?

My mom and I went shoe shopping with Taylee this week. She decided she wanted some new shoes so she tried to put her shoes up for sale! I'm not sure the ladies looking at these killer heels are gonna go for a size 5 sneaker . . . If you are wondering, a Christmas post will be coming . . . Eventually. :)

We took Taylee to meet Santa on Friday. She has been talking nonstop about Santa, and what she wants Santa to bring her. "More Weebles!" and "More Babies!" Of course, as expected, she was totally unwilling to talk to Santa. I was shocked! Since she wasn't willing to go solo with the big man in red, we had to turn it into a family event. Kent tried to destroy the set, and we all had a good laugh. I guess it wasn't designed for four adults and a child! Still glad we did it! Merry Christmas!

Trying to get a cute photo of Taylee in her "elf" outfit . . .

And yes, that is indeed a Broncos themed Christmas Tree!

Hay Lights!

The Burger Stop in Layton offers hay rides through the Christmas lights display in Layton park every December for just $2. Last Saturday we braved the cold and took a ride. Poor Taylee's nose was running like a faucet, and I felt like a terrible mother for taking her out in the cold weather, but she was pleased as punch to go see the lights. We are planning to go walk through them before the season is over because she LOVES Christmas lights this year!

Finally got our fall/winter photos done.

Better late than never!

Tif Right Back!

Lately Taylee has been enamored with calling me Tif. I think she got it from Skyler because he calls me Tif. When she can't get my attention calling me mommy, she stops and says "TIF!" And it works! Today in the car we were working on names of her relations -

Me: What's daddy's name?

Taylee: Ket! (Kent!)

Me: What's Nana's name?

Taylee: Dev! (Deb!)

Me: What's mommy's name?

Taylee: Tif Right Back!

Huh?!

Well blow me down!

Although I am sure that everyone has seen lots of pictures of the destruction caused by last week's windstorm, I am going to post a few pix of my parents yard. This blog serves as my personal journal, and this is (sadly), something to remember.
