More Gingerbread

On Sunday the 7th of December we went to Sam and Lara's to do more gingerbread. We took Keith with us. we had a great time.
McKenna was already into the frosting

Look how good Carolyn looks. As of today She has lost 54 pounds.
I have lost 46.
I just love Ellyce's frosting on the face shot.

Fantasy and Frost

Every year, usually the first weekend in December the city has a Fantasy and Frost at the Heritage center. Different Dance groups are invited to perform, and in the lobby there are trees decorated to sell and Santa is there. This year was no different. the girls danced and we went out and looked at the trees after.

























Parents Day at Dance, and Ward party

We had parents day at Dance two weeks ago. I am slow getting it on the post.This is Ellyce's new costume for the year. It also has a hat that goes with it.


This is one of Mckenna, she also has a green lyrical dress.

Two weeks ago we also had our first Christmas party of the year. It was our Ward party and I didn't have to do a thing this year. Santa came of course.



See what we have to deal with on a regular basis.



Ellyce was a little shy, but when it came to telling him what she wanted she wasn't.

The weekend after Thanksgiving our family gets together with all the cousin's to have a gingerbread house making party to kick off the Christmas season. Here are some pics of our house.
















Diet Update: as of today Dec. 5th Carolyn has lost 47 and I have lost 39 pounds.




Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we went ot St. George to have a fun weekend. The girls got to spend time playing with their cousin's and Carolyn and I were able to walk every morning. It was so fun! We went on Wednesday and had a doctors apointment with Dr. Carter. Carolyn has lost 45 pounds. So awesome! I have lost 32. If I hadn't been a wimp and quit and started back up three weeks later, I would have lost more.
Here is Ellyce waiting patiently.

Here we are.


Mckenna and Baylee were eager to help set the table.


We had 26 people there to eat, it was a house full. Good food and fun Family.
