Merry Christmas Eve!!!

Well I am at work on christmas eve (I'm not sure I like this growing up thing and being responsible but oh well!! And don't get me wrong I love my job, who else gets to help bring miracles into the world.) missing all my family friends while hepling bring babies into the world. I must say even though I am at work and probably a little old to get excited about christmas presents I alway seems to get that childlike excitement waiting to open presents on christmas morning even if it is with just my hubby! It makes me remember all the fun presentsI have gotten over the years from "santa clause" especially the twin dolls which I asked for 4 years in row before I actually got them. Mom you will appreciate that!!!! But the most important thing I miss this year is not being able to be with my family and see my cute little nephews and nieces open their presents from santa. I will miss going sledding down the back hill and being pulled by the skidoo aruond the front field. Reflecting back on my many christmases and the presents I have recieved over the years I have learned that the best presents I have ever been given is the gift of a loving family who cares for me and a husband who wants nothing but to make my every wish come true. I love my family and husband very much and wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Wish we were there to spend it with you.

Oh the Weather Outside Is Frightful!











Well We had one heck of a winter wonderland storm here today. It was blowing and snowing all day. Thank goodness I didn't have to go to work because it would not be fun diriving in that weather. After Ted got home from work we went outside to play in the snow and shovel the driveway. We are definately going to have a white Chirstmas which I am so excited about. Roxy absolutely loves the snow. She sticks her head all the way in it and sniffs all around. We would throw snowballs at her and she would chase them and eat the snow. Its hilarious to see her bounding through the snow that is past her belly.

Christmas is Here!
I finally decorated our house for the christmas season. We finally were able to get a nice big tree this year because our front has vaulted ceilings. Its 9 feet tall! We also have a place to hang our stockings this year for Santa to fill them (although we are saving for Teds schooling so Santa is going to be cutting back this year). Roxy and Kitty watched on as we decorated the tree and house. Roxy sat on the front window for hours watching Ted hang all the lights outside the house. Teds work is going well and we have his work christmas party tonight at his bosses house. And I have finally gotten a fulltime position at American Fork hospital starting in January. My offical count of babies I have delivery all by myself is 2 and the count contiunues to grow. I love my job it is such and exhiliarting feeling. Hope you are all doing well and we miss ya tons.

Las Vegas BABY!




The annual Las Vegas Dental convention was this past November and the whole fam went to have some fun bathing in the sun and warm weather. The girls went shopping while the boys were "supposed to be at the convention" but we all know they were at the tables! Here are a few pics of Ted and I at the Venetian Hotel where we went and saw Phantom of the Opera as my gift to Ted for his birthday. We had a romantic dinner before the show at one of the many amazing restaurants in the Hotel. It was a fun trip and is now becoming a yearly event eventhough ted and I have nothing to do with dentistry. Can't wait for next year.

My Trip to Canada!
















Well this is the start of Ted's and mine blog which Ted set up for me. We thought we would finally join the blogging world. So to give you all a quick update on our lives. Ted is working in SLC for a commmercial real estate company called Marcus & Millichap. I am working as a nurse finally after 5 years of school at American Fork Hospital as a labor and delivery nurse and I love it. Its so fun taking care of the cute babies but it makes me a little baby hungry! So this past week I got to go home for a visit and be there for the birth of Drew and Kelly's baby. It was so fun to share the stressful but exciting moment. Kelly had to have an emergency C section because the baby's heart rate droped while she was pushing and didn't come back up. I was happy to help keep all the many worried parents informed of how safe and quick a C section is after seeing many myself. Kelly;s parents were so cute and thanked me for being there to make sure Kelly was getting the best care. So the had a beautiful baby boy named Noah and he is adorable. I will post some pictures of baby Noah finally at home after a long hard 3 days in the NICU but doing well now. I was sad to leave home because I didn't really get to see baby Noah without being hooked up to many tubes and wires but hopefully I will see him soon. Hope you all enjoy our new blog.
