Yet another SNOW DAY.

Not going to lie..... sleeping in, hanging out with the husband ALL day, playing in the snow, munching on food ALL day, doing nothing but relaxing, is kind of nice. BUT not getting paid to do all that, not so Nice. We woke up to a fresh 16 inches. Craziest snow, thunder and lightning, ice, and wind storm I've ever witnessed.

 cutest little snow bunnies ever!!

have I mentioned that I've been praying for sunshine....

I guess I'm just going to have to wait

SG in a week

Costa Rica 4 weeks

bring on the sun

so excited!!

Wednesday Word of the Day

GuNg- Ho:  wholeheartedly enthusiastic and loyal.

This picture was taken {crapy iphone picture} right after I dropped L off at the train today, why they didn't call it a legit Snow Day? who knows, the roads aren't plowed {notice}, people sliding all over, it was a mess!! Either learn how to handle the snow {like at least plow}, or call it a snow day and shut down the city, come on!!  I'm not Gung-Ho about the snow at all.... bring me some sunshine to lighten my soul please.

Wednesday Word of the Day

Spirituel: showing or having a refined and graceful mind or wit.

is this something that is learned or something you are born with? if you can learn to have a graceful mind and wit.... sign me up!!!  i'll take whatever class teaches you this. Spirituel shouldn't be confused with Spiritual,  its not about your spirit or soul. its all about your mind, the way you perceive things,  and what you decide to do with it.
I choose to add a little more spirituel into my life.... i think everyone could use a little.

DATE NIGHT

Some of my favorite nights are the ones that follow a long day, and I come home and Landon says...

"come on babe, get ready, we are going out". 

Dinner dates on a students budget, that's a big deal. Dinner AND a movie, now that's what I call a real treat. The best part was that our wait at the restaurant took extra l o n g, {and I was being an impatient brat and wanted to leave, but didn't} so they gave us a complementary Calamari mmmm LOVE that!!

sometimes it just feels good to get all gussied up and get out of the house, it makes you feel like you are really living. I love date nights and I love the man who spoils me.... and I love Vince Vaughn, he makes me laugh for days.

A  sunny/snowy St. George Christmas

We celebrated Christmas in St. George the day after Christmas. It was my first Christmas away from home, it was hard I'm not going to lie, a few tears were shed but I made it through. My family was so patient and understanding, LOVE them!! We woke up SUPER early 5:30 a.m. {day 2 of early mornings, hated that} but I was so excited to be home that it was worth it. We decided last minute to tell my family that we slept in, so we wouldn't be there till late afternoon.... oooh they were mad!! It was so fun to see their faces as we busted through the door. We embraced, mom said a FEW choice words, we laughed, almost cried, and then got the party started!!!

we put on our Christmas Eve PJ'S 

and even came down the stairs

and unleashed our inner child.

ChristMas with the CaMerOns

We had a lovely holiday in Utah with our families. It was a fun filled/packed 2 weeks, worth every minute and every penny. We are so blessed to have such amazing family and friends.

We started at landons in Salt Lake {with snow} and ended at my house in St. George {with snow} can you believe that. crazy!!! but love it All!!!

CHRISTMAS DAY

I hope and pray that my kids don't wake up at the butt crack of dawn....ever! waking up before 8 just doesn't work for me. 

I made a deal with the big man upstairs, i'll have kids if: they will be good sleepers, not throw up {in front of me} and not get into too much trouble {like i did, sorry mom}

the morning started off at 6:30 a.m.

 kids definitely make Christmas more exciting

its so fun to watch their eyes light up

little kids and the big kids too

 Paisley {1 1/2} Ollie {2 1/2}

i wonder if they really get whats going on...

who cares, they were loving it!!!
