Car Show.....Subaru Outback!!!

We have a dream.... Of owning a Subaru Outback. So we went to the auto show to see one. We loved it just as much in person. To bad we can't buy one just yet...

Staying Warm

I am FINALLY getting around to posting about Christmas. We had a PERFECT break but we were ready to get back to a schedule. We are also looking forward to a New Year that could mean a lot of changes in our little family. Brent will be done with his degree this Spring and we are not sure whether we want to stay put or go off on an adventure. We will have to see :). We are just trying to be happy with where we are in life. I thought I would the top ten things we were able to do over the break.
1. Spend lots of time with Family both Giles and Pond.
2. Brent's Birthday (previous post)
3. Ella's Blessing (Previous Post)
4. Blackburn family Christmas party at my Uncle Todds
5. To see the lights at Temple Square with our traditional dinner at Spaghetti Factory at Trolley Square.
5. Christmas Eve morning at Mike and Carols
6. Jazz Game on the 14th row with Malissa and Ryan...Thank you so much for inviting us.
7. Bowling and Pizza with the Ponds
8. Nutcracker with the girls.
9. Sledding at Churchill Jr. High
10. Having a quiet New Year's with the Bibo's

I took the day off and Heather and I went shopping for the day. Before we left we took some pictures of Ella. notice what her shirt says.

Jared and Celyn left for El Paso a couple days before Christmas so we exchanged presents a few days early. Jocelyn wasn't so sure about her presents but once she saw there were toys inside she got excited.

Brent's Birthday

Brent's Birthday was on the 20th. We had a busy day with Ella's Blessing in the morning and a party at Brent's parents that afternoon.

Baby Seat Cover

Now you see her...
Now you don't

So for the past couple months I have been seeing these car seat covers. I thought t would be a great thing to get Heather for her new baby. As I got looking the only ones I could find to buy was $50 bucks. So after stalking people everywhere I went ( I asked total stanger in the Mall where they got there's) I finally got the info I needed to make my own. So here's the final product!!!
