Let it Snow!....and then let it stop!

Ok, so I haven't seen this much snow for a long time! It started snowing last week and hasn't stopped. Yesterday it snowed all day long and then the wind started blowing in the late afternoon. I'd say we had a blizzard! It was wild wind and snow blowing everywhere, huge drifts, cars off the road. We had our Hammon family Christmas party last night and we ended up turning it into a sleep over due to the road conditions. Crazy times! When we got home this morning we had huge snow drifts in front of our apartment and the snow blew right up to our door. 


It's fun to see the snow at Christmas time, but I think we can call it quits for now. We have enough to last us for a couple weeks. Ryan is working for the city of Idaho Falls plowing snow, so if it stops snowing then he doesn't have to work, so lets hope it doesn't snow on Christmas!!

Butterfly Birthday Party

Our Thanksgiving!

Grey turned the big ONE on Thanksgiving this year. What a fun time for all of us! We started the day with blueberry muffins, Grey's favorite, and a few gifts from Mommy and Daddy. We then spent the day with both of our families, which is a gift in itself, for a all of us. Grey loves to play with all her cousins and Ryan and I love being close to family and getting the chance to hang out with everyone. We have so much to be thankful for this year! With it being Grey's birthday I couldn't help but think about the day she was born and how grateful we are that she is healthy and here with us today! What a great day to celebrate your first birthday!

Slowly, but surely...

The tree is on it's way up. Christmas tree that is. I cleaned today and made room for the tree and decided to put it up while Grey was sleeping. We will decorate it this weekend. Can't wait! I don't even think Grey has noticed it. I was worried she wouldn't stop bugging it, but so far she hasn't even touched it. Lucky me! 
So I'm probably the first person to put up my tree, but I haven't been able to for two years, so I just couldn't wait any longer. I'll post pictures when it's all decorated. Happy Holidays!!

Another update!

11 months old and Grey is officially walking! She walks all over the place, exploring all there is to see. It was so fun to watch her accomplish such a huge thing. Life is different with a little walker in the house. She can get away quicker during a diaper change, goes from room to room, carries things around the house, (leaving us wondering where everything is) and best of all, walking over to give us loves! We couldn't be prouder of little Grey! 
( As soon as we find our camera I will post pictures of her and video. We seem to have lost it in the move.)

We are in Rexburg!!

Hello Everyone! It's been a while since my last post. We have been busy moving home and trying to find a place to live. We found an apartment in Rexburg last week, so we are in the process of unpacking and settling in to the new place. We live at the village on pioneer road. We like where we are. Ryan is starting his new job this week. He is still working for Sound Security, he just has a different job title. So all is well here! We love being close to family and it's been fun for Grey to play with cousins and get to know everyone again. She's still a little shy at first, but she'll get used to everyone sooner or later. If you are in the Rexburg area come visit us. We love to have company! As soon as we are settled, I'll be sure to post some pics and get back into the blogging world. Have a good one!!

Goodbye Florida!

These are our last days here in Florida and we are trying to make the most of them. We wanted to make sure and go to the pool before we left, but not sure if that's gonna happen. It's supposed to rain until Thursday, sorry Grey! We have really loved living in Florida. Ryan loves the heat, I love all the places to go shopping and Grey loves having a pool. We will definitely miss this place, but we are excited to be heading back to Idaho. There's no place like home! 

We are leaving on October 1st, so this will be my last post for a while. Wish us luck on our super long drive home! If you have any ideas on how to keep Grey entertained in the car, we would love to hear them! See you in Idaho!!

She wants to walk!


Grey pushes anything and everything around the house these days. She's getting pretty good at it too. It won't be long until she's walkin on her own. Yikes!
