15th Annual Ornament Party

We THINK this was the 15th year. It doesn't even matter because this is the one party of the year that everyone looks forward too!

Dean's List

Who makes the Dean's list in her 2nd year of college? Sieauna! That's who! Way to go girl! You have the drive and determination that people dream of, and your hard work shows! We are beyond proud.

Getting Ready for Christmas

These kids of mine love to appease me by decorating with me. I hope they never lose the joy of making the house feel warm and Christmasy!

Christmas Tea Towels

For Christmas this year I had a copy of nanny's pierogi recipe printed onto fabric and made tea towels. I think they turned out awesome and I hope the kids think they are cool someday and a good memory.

Utes Finals

Our beloved Utes made it to the finals against Oregon, where they promptly forgot to show up and play. It was a crappy game, but the experience was so worth it! I love San Fransisco, despite the fact that it rained all weekend and I was SUPER sick!  We enjoyed the VIP treatment of sitting on the field in recliners, having a free open bar, meeting some of the players and hanging out with friends. On our last day Justin and I did what we love best, drove around and found things to do. We found this quaint little bed and breakfast in Santa Clara and stopped at the ocean so I could get my sea fix.  He's so good to me. Hopefully next year it won't be so cold and the Utes will actually show up to play! ;)
