A few randoms over the past week.


My little sis got accepted to BYU while I was visiting this past week!
Seeing as my family are die hard fans, and that is the only place she applied HA we are all pretty thrilled.
^^ Can't believe she's going to college this coming fall! WHAT!? ^^
So proud of her.


^^ Watched her flip a time or two ^^


Couldn't find Ryan one morning for breakfast - ^^ Found him ^^
Go figure.


^^ " I like this color mommy" - and no, unfortunately I didn't choose the forest green he chose for my nails. ^^
Clearly a boy choice HA.


^^ Books and pedicures. Win, win. ^^


^^ Buddies ^^ playing while his mom and I catch up on life :)


^^ OH HEYYY winter wonderland. ^^
You are so pretty.


My mom has made this since we were kids and it is one of my all time favorite night time snacks!

Put tortilla on cookie sheet.
LIGHTLY baste a tortilla with a tiny bit of melted butter.
Sprinkle Cinnamon sugar on tortilla.
Cut into strips with a pizza cutter.
Bake at 350 until crispy.
Top with fresh strawberries and drizzle with homemade hot fudge.

Perfection.


If only you could hear the little grunts my child was giving while copying every move my dad did.
Ryan did a full on workout with my dad. Abs, weights, and all.
Proud mom.
^^ Start em young ^^


This is what Costco trips look like with a big family.
THE BEST.
And yes, we go through about a gallon of milk a day. HA


^^ Morning sidekick ^^


^^ My little fishy ^^


His happy place. ^^
Within 2 inches of the animal crackers so conveniently placed at his height.


^^ Saw my littlest sister's dance competition ^^
He was so excited about it.


^^ His lunch spot ^^

Currently stuck inside book reading Dr. Seuss with Ry while hoping for sun on this rainy dreary day!
Rain rain go away!
Also, have you hear THIS mashup of this song!? It's on repeat. I love it so much.

  3. Your house is a DREAM!! I cannot wait to see more! Congrats to your sister - SO exciting!!! PS That snack looks DELICIOUS! My Nana used to make me graham crackers and peanut butter when I stayed with her...I have a feeling I will be making it for years and passing it onto my kids/grandkids. Don't you just love little family traditions?! Have a great week!
