Welcoming in the new year with a HUMONGOUS post

With Christmas, New Years, a wedding, and just a whole bunch of cute pictures, this is going to be one LONG post.

To start off the Christmas Season, we had a party with the Smith extended family at the Garden Center. Kaitlyn got a fun ball from her 2nd cousin Hadley. She LOVED it!

Next, we celebrated Christmas Eve with Spencer's family. We met at the Mann's new house in Hyrum/Nibley to go sledding and eat treats. Kaitlyn started sitting up really well while we were up there...how exciting!

Then we went up to Providence for the party. Jenny's twins are home now, and hooked up to a lot of different machines, so we partied at her house. There was a lot of great food, and we had a really fun time.

(Yes, I'm being a mean mom and holding her binky in. She had just gotten up from a SHORT nap, and was cranky.)

Spencer and Kaitlyn.

Christmas day we celebrated with my family. My mom got us all Utah State pajamas, since all of us have gone to USU (except Tyler...yet). Kaitlyn loved playing with the wrapping paper.

This happened while I was out of the room.



Good thing she's learning to brush her teeth early.

My sister Kristine got married on the 27th. It was a beautiful wedding, and everyone loved her reception. Here are some cute pictures from the evening.

Congratulations, Tyler and Kristine!

New Year's Eve, we headed to my Grandma's house in Tooele for a big Fishy party.

And now for some random pictures of Kaitlyn throughout the last few weeks. She's such a cutie!!

(This is how Kaitlyn feels about tummy time)
