It felt like home today, it snowed and snowed. They cancelled school so the kids had a snow day.... In Vegas a snow day, to funny. I told my kids you will tell your kids about today; this hasn't happened in Vegas since 1979. It was to funny, you don't realize some people have never dealt with snow, Tyler and I went to dinner for our Anniversary and there was one other couple there. Phenix called during dinner and her dance class had been cancelled and the drive home was crazy. When we got up this morning and Tracy and her kids meet us at a park we take the dogs to, there is a huge hill and we went sledding, Vegas style, on our boogy boards. Let me tell you those baby's fly....... Griffen did not want me on that board.....

Today Tyler and I have been married 16 years...Where does the time go? The crazy thing is we have been together for 20 years, that's incredible. The day of our wedding and the weeks before where crazy, it seemed like everyone was against us, it was one drama after another and the funny thing was the drama wasn't ours. It was the snowiest day of the year I thought no one was going to show up. When I pulled up with my Mom I thought to my self I just want to go to Vegas and do this I needed to talk to Ty so badly and my Mom told me there was a back door and we could leave, she would get Tyler and we could drive away....Tyler told me John was giving him the same talk ( about leaving but I wasn't in the sentence ) And if you think after we said I do the Wedding had to get better, No just few more dramatics... After the wedding we drove away and never looked back.... We laugh so hard now about our wedding day, Tyler always says the worse the Wedding the better the marriage. I think hes right...I'm more in love with him now then ever, if that's possible. He is my life and always will be....

My Mom & Dad come down to stay with us for a few days, We had a great time just hanging out. My Mom played games, made cookies and watched movie with the kids. They watched the kids for me and Ty a couple of the night so we could go out. One of the nights was Tyler's Christmas party usually Ty wears a suit and I wear a sweet dress but this year we changed it up a little. I think we look pretty sweet.....

Gage is off track so we tried to start Christmas shopping. We went to Town Square, one of our out side malls, went to Borders got our lattes and started our shopping for the day. The Christmas music was playing and its all decorated for the season. I looked at Gage and started laughing, he's in shorts and a tee and I'm still in my gym cloths and running shorts and a tank top and its 80 degrees.....CRAZY!!!! We had lunch on the patio and even got tan lines. Every year since we have moved here I have the hardest time getting in the Christmas spirit. So I put up Christmas early this year. It looks great so I wanted to share it. Here's a few pics......































Football season is over for Gage they had a great year. They ended the season at 9 and 3. Tyler helped coach this year, I was a little scared about that just by watching other dads with there sons, they seem to be harder on them. But they worked great together and I'm happy to say they are still talking to each other. The fact that Gage is amazing on the field made it easier I'm sure....

We went to Disneyland for Halloween. The park was so cute! Last time we were there Phen was 6 and Gage was 4 it was so much easier this time. No one needed to be carried, I didn't need a huge bag, and no one had to pee right when we were about to get on a ride. A bitter but sweet transition. They grow up so fast. My Mom, Tammie,Tim and Quinn meet up with us. Phenix and Quinn traded pins (and Tammie ) and Gage and I conquered a few fears. ( Tower of Terror and Splash Mountain ) Phenix and Tyler have no fear....Thank God Ty has her cuz Gage and I are BABIES!!!!!! Me and Tam failed to tell my Mom about the 50 foot drop on Splash Mountain, she figured it out quick when I started screaming I hate this ride!! and Gage had a full on panic attack when the ride broke down and he almost jumped off. The picture says it all....
If you know me you get the name......



































We went to Newport Beach and Newport Pier before we went to Disneyland.
Just spent the day and had dinner.....Phenix and Gage took most of the pics thats why its all of me and Ty......
