Christmas 2011

Lots of photos to add to the blog about Christmas, and a few videos too. So I will start with pics from Brittany Dransfield and the mall pics with Santa. I took those myself, as you will be able to see the difference between a pro and then mine. So Kylia went with me on both outings and together we got the girls to smile for some pics. We took pics with Brittany at Lafayette Park in town and to be honest, there was just too much space for the girls to run around in! They didn't stay together, they ran in totally separate directions and barely listened to me, Kylia or Brittany!!! I'm just glad we wound up with some great pics. Shows what a pro Brittany is!!! Me, not so much...oh well!!!

Thanksgiving in WV...

Thanksgiving 2011 was spent traveling to Huntington, WV to be with Joe's grandmother. We left on a Tuesday and drove through the night and got the early Wednesday morning. we stayed till Saturday and had a gray time with Libby. She met Brittyn for the first time, we went and saw some Christmas lights and did a little shopping, not too much though since there isn't more than there is here in Tallahassee. Most of the time was spent trying to get the girls to sit still for some quick pics.

Bradley's Days

I know, Bradley's Days was hack in november but the pics are still on my phone and any effort I make to publish to my blog should be acknowledged, right? So here goes...

Bradley's Days was great and we went down the huge slide and ate several Bradley's sausage dogs (each), but we had an especially good time watching Ryan get her face painted and watching Brittyn Gray ride the train and try to dance in her cart to the music!!! They were pretty cute and seemed to have a good time. I've got pics to prove it ;).

Slide!!!

We went to Bradley's days a few weeks ago, so much fun!!! All the bradley sausage and carnival food we could eat!!! Of course, Ryan and Brittyn found things to play on so Jaren and I took them down the bouncy slide. So much fun, I'm sure I had more fun than either of them had!!!

Project Christmas 2011...

I was late putting up my Christmas tree this year, even later blogging about it. I usually put it up on General Conference weekend (hey, I gotta stay awake somehow ;)) but this year I didn't get it put up till November. I know I'm late but it's finally up. This year we had a new helper, Brittyn was old enough to participate. She and Ryan were steady giving Joe and I the pieces of the tree and they are continuing to help even now by rearranging my ornaments!!! Thankfully, most of the breakable ornaments are close to the top ;). And now that Thanksgiving is over, it doesn't look so out of place seeing the tree lit up in my window. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Go long!!!

Brittyn is one busy lady. At Helaman's party she wasn't only dancing but she was also playing football with BB! She was having so much fun throwing the football with her Uncle Brian and he was being such a good sport helping her. She even finally caught a pass!!! Go team Brittyn!!!

Footloose!!!

So we are finding out little by little that Brittyn LOVES TO DANCE!!! Not only that, but she's even got her own signature moves!!! We were at Helaman's birthday party a few weeks ago and they had some music going. So Brittyn decided to show the folks her moves. She enjoyed all the attention she didn't stop after just one dance. She kept dancing and dancing!!! So you think you can dance? You will definitely have some competition!!!
