Winter Cabin: Glow Stick Dance Party

It was just Michael, Kimberly, and I that made it to the Winter Cabin from our family this year! We took Michael and Kimberly's Truck so Ruby and I were super squished in the back!

Sometimes the only time she likes me is in the back seat cuddles! 

She  was super funny! When I would try and sleep she would either pat me or push on my forehead so that I couldn't fall asleep! 

A favorite of the Winter Cabin is the glow stick Dance Party! It is a lot of fun!

Here is Ruby preping to get ready! 

GG practicing her moves! And Brad in the background getting a song list ready!

I can't remember exactly who is who in the glow stick pictures! But they look super cool!

I think this is Ruby wearing Glow stick earrings! 

This is Ruby wearing Mickey Mouse ears and Ava as the stick man in the back!

Puzzels!

When Natalie and I were little we did puzzles all the Time! I really Love  them! Ryan got this one for a white elephant gift! We really had a lot of Fun putting it together! I made him watch White Christmas while we put it together! 

Christmas!

I have never been one that can go to be early! Most of my memoires from childhood are fits that I have thrown in order to not go to bed but that doesn't mean that I don't like to sleep! In all honesty I just hate waking up in the morning! So when I get up at 4:45ish for Christmas it means I really love it! I seriously love my family and seriously love the stuffing we make! So Christmas Eve was super not weird becuase it was just me, Julianne, and my parents! So I shouldn't have had any problem going to sleep! But my mother insisted that "Santa Clause" was coming to our house! I said no Santa isn't coming I am 28 and I want to sleep on the couch! So I lay down and try to sleep but I am not really able too! Why because I can hear my mom setting stuff up! I yell "Mom I am 28! 28! I don't need Santa!" To which my mother answered "Now that you are up look what Santa brought you" So like any adult! I rolled off the couch and looked at what Santa brought me! I was way excited to get cowboy boots! My father picked them out for me! My mom made me try the pajamas on cause she wanted to see how they fit! I did say no I have to be up in 5 hours! 

Look how excited I am! 

The Lucky Charms are because that is one of the reasons I believed in Santa Clause so long because I knew my mom would buy cereal like that from a box! 

I love this picture of my Grandpa it just makes me smile! Full Camo with Santa Clause Supenders!

White Christmas!

I love Christmas movies! I love the corniness! I love the happy endings! I love the true love! I love the part when they remember the reason for the season! So it is not really a big surprise that I have watch about a billjillon this year! But my favorite by far is has to be White Christmas! I love that it is old! I love the story! I love the Actors! I love the one liners! There is a lot of love there! I the part at the end when the General comes down in his uniform! Oh it makes me cry! So this year when the Mystic was doing it I really wanted to go! So I decided to give it to my parents for Christmas! I am such a good daughter! Really self sacrificing! 

When I got ready I decided to blow dry my hair!  Hello 80s hair! (My mom really missed out she is crazy to have short hair then) Then when I was waiting for my parents to get ready we also found out that I was wearing a blazer that had shoulder pads to round out my outfit! Then my mom's hair was a little big and I told her that she should wear a jacket too so she could be all 80s too! So she put one on to match! It was pretty funny! 

We serously could be twins!

Love that I can't take a normal picture! 

I really love my Mom! No Matter how crazy she is!

My dad really likes my mom too! And her vest! 

Us before the show starts! I loved it! I felt like I was the only one laughing most of the time probably because of my love for the movie!

Christmas Vest!

I wore this to school on Friday! Because I am super cool!

Christmas Cookies!

I seriously wait all season to make Christmas Cookies! I love to invite people to come with us but I let them know that take your Christmas Cookies very serously and it is not something to be trifulled with!

Ruby loved pushing the cookies cutters down!

She also did pretty good at decoradting! She would squeeze when I told her too!

The Happy Decorating Group! It was Ryan's first time he did pretty good!

Ruby eating a cookie!

So adorable!

Traditional Hula Girls!

Best Buds forever!

Very Serous! 

Our Missionary Group!

Cliche Christmas Party!

Jill, Natalie, and I come up with the best ideas! We decided to have a Christmas Party where we would do all sorts of cliche things like Chestnuts Roasting on an open fire!  Here a copy of the invitation that Jill made! I wish I had a picture of it from the front! It was so cute!

We had the most amazing food! It was a lot of fun sitting around and talking with people!

This is the group with their white elephant gifts! My pose is for the Roberts sisters! I knew they would love it!  

Best group ever!

One of the funniest things was the Pono in his holiday sweater he made himself! The stupid light was super bright!
