November Photo-A-Day

Casey with a Cold is still Cute. 

Our neighborhood's roads have been torn up for about 6 weeks now (only 4 months to go). I'm so tired of the red dirt everywhere! Not to mention never knowing how to get to/from home. #overit

Enjoying a little trash tv now that Jenna's in bed. #rehabwithdrdrew

Grabbing a little dinner in between tennis shoe shopping and my HOA meeting.

Getting my hair did.

My new phone arrived today. I'm counting it as man made even if it is mostly machine. So exited to finally have a ringer and speaker!

Christmas. 

Glad to be leaving to snow and inversion. #lovestgeorge

I do love the Twilight soundtracks! #twilight 

It was a perfect day for a walk in Zion's. Our nature girl had a great time seeing the deer and collecting rocks and sticks. 

Base and case ready for installation. So stocked! #progress

My fabulous button bracelet.

#grateful 

Apparently I didn't get the wardrobe memo. Had a good day with you @mailemadsen

It's the quiet, repetitive sounds that drive me crazy. Lick, lick, lick.

One of Jenna's favorite things to do is find the "wairpwanes" as they fly by. I'm just happy that I live in a place where the sky is clear blue beauty for most of the year. #stgeorge 

Still working my way through my thin mint stash. #thinmints #itsaproblem

The leaves are still working on changing around here. It's beautiful! #fall 

Road trip prep. The car has been washed, vacuumed, scrubbed, and organized. Right down to conditioning the leather. #cleancarsdrivebetter #sandiegoorbust #homewardbound

The world famous Baker, CA thermometer. 

My sister's cute gratitude tree. #love 

October Photo-A-Day

And still do... 

A little lunch with Grandma Lor! (And Uncle Matthew)

Jenna learned to drive her new battery operated Lightning McQueen from Grandma Lor. Highlight: her patting the bumper and telling him good job. #sofun 

I'm totally a People.com addict. I'll admit it. 

Love her!

Friends that run the #stgmarathon 17 years in a row and get invited to go to St George's sister city in Japan and then invite me as their companion. (Worst sentence structure ever!) #cantwait #waytogoliisa #whatamigoingtoeat 

Love this app! Use it almost every night.

LOVE!

One of our favorite things is the way Jenna sits with her feet crossed. #cuteness 

Kept Jenna entertained with a slideshow of Disneyland on our flight to San Diego. She was a dream.

Jenna's giving Casey a "Rapunzel" kiss good-bye. She cracks up. #loveher #kisses 

Didn't text much today so I had to draw from yesterday.

Been working on organizing all of my digital scrapbooking stuff. #overwhelmed #ocd

Had a good family day watching Weber get their first win of the season in a nail biter at Southern Utah. #letsgoweber

Nick & @liisafrei are making amazing progress getting Dutchmans and Cravings rebuilt! #digdeepfordutchmans

Beautiful sunset tonight. #nofilter 

Jenna seems to think winter has arrived. Poor girl has got a nasty cough and a bit of a fever so I think this is her solution. #loveher 

...these are my people... 

Lungs... Daddy's turn and then Jenna's turn. Just a common cold. Nothing in the lungs. Yeah!

Rear view love.

Big, bright, and full {just like my moon}. PS. It was all I could not to post a picture of my backside, of which I have several, but there are too many impressionable minds that follow whom I didn't want to scar for life. #yourewelcome 

Our beautiful snow queen. She curtsies every time anyone gives her candy. Totally her (I'm sure from Disney). It's hilarious! #loveher #halloween

When Grandma Lor Comes To Town

When Grandma Lor comes to town, there is a lot of eating out and presents and love. Jenna has her {and everyone else for that matter} wrapped around her little finger. 

We went shopping and picked out Jenna's halloween costume, she's going to be a snow queen. We tried the dress on so we could see if it fit. It's a tiny bit too long, but otherwise fits well. She would not let me take it off her. She kept twirling and spinning. She finally looks at me and says, "It's just so magical." Happiness abounds!

Grandma Lor bought Jenna a new Lightning McQueen battery operated four wheeler. Jenna LOVES it. Round and round she goes in our backyard in total heaven. 

Then Grandma Lor and Uncle Matthew to the splash pad. What a good time they had together!
