Good Times with Good Friends

Some of my old high school friends and I went out to dinner to P.F. Changs. It was so yummy! The baby told me all night that I definatley at to much! It was so fun to see everyone and catch up. Aubree brought her cute little one year old. He and Porter are only a few weeks apart. He is such a cutie. It made me miss my cute boys. It was really nice of Grandma to watch and play with them. Here are some pictures!

Utah Fun

We (Timmy, Porter and I) arrived safely in Utah on Wednesday night. It was a pretty good flight. I was excited because it was a non-stop flight but, I realized that 3 hours in a seat with two children is a long time. Everything went as planned. Matt dropped us of at 7:25 for our shuttle. We arrived at the airport 2 1/2 hours early and had plenty of time to burn off some energy for our 3 hour flight. We got on our plane and the boys fell asleep right as the plane left the ground. I was so excited that it was going to be this easy. Well, 1/2 hour into the flight a little boy in front of us was having a tickling war with his mom and woke the boys up. This is when I realized that happy noises are just as disturbing as sad noises. So I had to come up with games and things to do for 2 1/2 hours. The boys were really good and we made it fine!
As soon as we got in we started to drive to mom's new home in Eagle Mountain. We got about 10 min from home and Timmy started throwing up. What a great way to start a trip. Luckily I had my mom to help with the throw-up in the car. He threw-up about 6 times but, wasn't acting sick. He wanted to eat and drink so I let him. I thought it was going to be a long night with him but, the throw-up ended just as fast as it came on. We have been fine and healthy since! Here are some pictures of Grandma Hawkes beautiful house. I love all her Christmas decorations. The tree is my favorite. Timmy and I will cuddle on the couch as we look at all the beautiful lights and Porter can't keep his hands off it. She has a really fun bell garland that he likes to shake. Porter loves Grandmas he sleeps better here than he does at home. It's crazy! Grandma is also watching a cute little puppy until Christams! Porter loves her so much. They are little pals already.
This is Lily the cute little puppy!
This is Grandma's Family Room

The boys love watching movies at Grandmas!


Porter loves Grandma and the camera!



Timmy his usual look at the camera and then away before it takes the picture. It's so hard to get a picture of him looking at the camera.
Daddy we love you and miss you and can't wait for you to come on Thursday morning! It's going to be so much fun! Good luck with your homework and finals!

Florida Thanksgiving!




We had so much fun with Tim, Kate and Camden in Florida! It will be a trip to remember! We had a blast driving down through the night on the 18th and arrived at Seaside, FL for lunch. Seaside was beautiful, I hope we can go there again soon! Then we traveled through the long drive of Florida. We didn't know we were only 1/2 way when we were at Seaside. So we didn't get to Fort Lauderdale until 1:30 at night. Tim waited up for us it was exciting to see him. After that we crashed and played and ate! It was so much fun. We enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner, it was so yummy! Tim and Matt had fun frying the turkey and Matt put the final touches on our honey baked ham (which was awesome). It really was a trip to remember! Thanks Tim and Katelin for such a fun trip we loved it!
