aMAZEing
For years, we have made homemade Valentines and it’s one of my favorite traditions. The boys have been really into doing mazes lately and that was the inspiration for this year’s card.
January Little Things
We kicked off January with sickness, no surprise. Nash felt better just in time to go to a Medieval Times tournament with friends. We put in several Disney days. Splash Mountain turned out to not be the best idea in January. Disney is always more fun when friends join us….
Hey Mr DJ
Blake’s best friend has a pretty cool DJ business, and he asked Blake to help him DJ the 5th grade glow party. I got to help chaperone and I tried my best to stay out of their way. They had quite the list of song requests to manage. It took…
The Magic Ride Height
It’s a big day when you reach the magic ride height of 40″ at Disneyland. It’s an even bigger day when you are the baby of the family and a whole new realm of ride possibilities opens up. We kicked off the new year by activating the annual passes that…

The day after Christmas, we made our way up the mountain in blustery conditions to hit the slopes. Luckily, the weather cleared up a bit and we had a beautiful day with fresh powder. Crew was beyond excited to join his older brothers on the slopes. He did great in…
Christmas Sledding
After making our way through presents on Christmas Day, we hit our favorite sledding hill that had gotten a fresh coat of powder. Finn was over the cold real quick. It’s a good thing his brothers were there to drag him up the hill. I’m not sure if Finn was…
Christmas Morning
First on the agenda on Christmas morning was checking for evidence that Santa had been there. The missing carrots and cookies were the giveaway! Once Santa’s visit was confirmed, the boys were so excited to find that it had snowed overnight. They patiently waited for all of their cousins to…
Christmas Eve
We hit up our favorite indoor swimming pool at the Kamas rec center on Christmas Eve. Back at the cabin, the kids were super entertained with their holiday specs while the adults worked on Christmas Eve dinner. The glasses transformed the lights on the tree into magical images and it…
