Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve just isn't what it used to be anymore. I remember as a kid being so excited that I just couldn't stand it. I loved going to Pizza night with my Mom's side of the family and then off to Grammy's for the Nativity. We got our Christmas PJ's and then headed home. When we were young we would all sleep down in Josh's room- usually play a little nintendo, late night chats, and a grand ole' sleepover. Then it was all we could do to stay in bed after 5:30 am! Those were the days and Christmas's at our house were truly magical. I knew that Santa was the real deal because we didn't have a lot of money and Santa always pulled through for us. Now it just seems like another day. I am looking forward to next year even though our baby will only be 10 months old. It will still be magical again! I am still a believer in Santa Clause- always have been....always will be!

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

This past weekend we had the Brown Family Christmas Party. I know this sounds weird but this is my favorite time of year. I love the hussle and bussle, family parties, wrapping presents, and getting into the Christmas Spirit.Dev really isn't scared of Santa but it wasn't quite her turn to sit on Santa's lap!
The boys doing their typical sitting in the corner...avoiding socializing!

This picture is priceless!

So when we showed up to the party Tayc, Dev, and I were totally twins. From white shirts, denim pants, and red shoes. It looked like I was their Mother and we had planned to dress alike. I love these girlies!!!!

1st Baby Shower

Mellanie, Amy, Jocey, & Summer

Summer, Me, Holly, and Lorna

Leslie, Janessa, Whitney, Elsie, & Ali
On Saturday Luke's family threw Me and the Baby a shower. We had a good turn out and I got so much fun stuff. People are just so generous! It was so fun to get blue boy stuff! I have decided that I am going to have to just buy matching socks for his little outfits because boys don't wear bows. I have to admit- having the shower made it more of a reality and it got me totally excited for our little guy to come! Thanks again to everyone who came.

Temple Square with Young Women!

On Friday night we took all of out YW up to Hires Big H and then to see the Lights at Temple square. The traffic was crazy and downtown was crowded but we still ended up having a great time. That is Melissa, Breanne, Sadie, and I. They are the only two we have in Mia Maids these days!
Tiff and I are both due about 10 days apart, both with little boys~!

Here is the group!

Melissa and I always seem to have funner than the girls. We both are prego and both having boys as well and by the time we get home our tummies hurt from laughing so hard. Melissa was making fun of me because I was taking pictures and no one was in them- she just asked me, "What are you going to do with those?" It was hilarious!

Sadie and I

The big group again!

The 3 prego leaders...

Needless to say it was a good time had by all. We ended the night having hot cocoa out of Tiffany's trunk!!! Gotta love Temple Square at Christmas.
