Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a blast!  Payton and I were able to go to Minnesota and be with lots of family (We missed you Jonathan and Amanda!).  We didn't arrive in Minnesota until Thursday around noon, but none the less, we were still super excited to be in Minnesota and see everyone.  The weather was great (kind of cold at times) but the company was even better.  

I don't really have pictures from a lot of the trip, which is sad.  But Thanksgiving day was great, the food was amazing!  Then on Friday we went to Water Park of America with the family.  Payton loved standing in the kid pool and wave to Grandma.  The Lazy River was also a hit.  

Saturday night we went to David and Eliza's for a Polar Express party.  It was SO much fun, and seeing so many cute people in cute pajamas was a blast!  We had pizza, watched Polar Express, decorated train cakes and enjoyed family time.  Here are some pictures from the party (AKA: The only pictures I took on my camera the whole trip).

 It was a wonderful Thanksgiving, and our trip to Minnesota ended all too fast.  Payton and I can't wait to go back for Christmas and spend more time with family!

We LOVE Visits From Grandma!

This weekend Payton and I were so lucky to have Grandma come and visit.  It was so much fun to see her and spend time with her.  Payton LOVED her Grandma time!  Mom came in on Thursday night, and then on Friday mom watched Payton while I was at work.  Grandma was even a trooper and took Payton to get her flu shot (what a Grandma!).  When they came and picked me up Payton was sure to tell me all about her shot (it was way too cute). 

LOVE!

Payton LOVED playing with Grandma's iPad.  She basically acted like it was hers, and she was letting Grandma borrow it from time to time.  

 This Little Mama was always super determined to get it.  If it was on the kitchen table, or up high anywhere, she would climb on anything and everything to get it.  (Yup, she started climbing up the kitchen chairs this weekend)

I love Payton's curls!

This weekend we spend lots of time running errands, working on a Christmas puzzle (started and finished it in 3 days), went out to eat and Mom and I even made it to the temple.  It was a WONDERFUL weekend and we LOVED it!  

Payton's definitely getting more of her little personality and it's adorable.  She was definitely in full "Show Off" mode for Grandma, and pulled out all of her tricks.  Part of her cuteness is she loves to try and be funny.  So these next pictures are her putting her sunglasses on herself and smiling for the camera, and then laughing hysterically (it was beyond adorable!)

 So cool

 Goofy Baby

 Ta Da!

I just love her!

Thank you SO much for coming to visit this weekend mom, we LOVED having you here!  LOVE YOU!
