Christmas Card Photo Shoot

Before Christmas, my mom had some pictures taken of the girls for her Christmas card. They turned out amazing and we couldn't love this little girl more.












Dog Sledding...

Over Christmas break we headed up to the mountains for a week. It's so magical up there during Christmas time, we just can't get enough of it. My parents took the whole family (minus pregnant Kristy and the two little girls) dog sledding and it was amazing. First, they are the sweetest dogs that could never get enough love. My dad was trying to figure out how to bring one home with us. Second, it amazes me how these dogs LOVE to run and literally can't sit still. When we got there and they told us we would be on the sled by ourselves I was a little worried, seeing as I have no experience as Iron Will.  It was easier to maneuver than I thought. It was such a cool experience and one we will never forget.

Warmer Weather


After Christmas, we headed to sunny Southern California to get some warmer weather and some much needed R&R. I always love going back to where I grew up, it will always be home to me. After what seemed like the travel day from hell, we finally got there. Brooklyn was a champ and went an entire day without napping (the first time in her whole 18 months of life). She was in heaven the entire week. She loved riding the beach cruisers from pier to pier, and would have never left the sand if we let her. She is her mother's daughter and I absolutely love her love for the ocean. We got to see great grandma and grandpa Kozak as well, which was so special for me. We spent lots of time shopping, eating, playing at the arcades, going on boat tours, whale watching, and watching Pitch Perfect. It was such a fun trip with Trevor's family and we are already missing the sun. Trevor mentions every day how he wishes we could be on beach cruisers right now. I second that.

Christmas Happenings

Christmas time is my favorite time of year and we have been making the most of it here in Denver. Here are some pictures of what we have been up to this Holiday season.

 Brooklyn "helped" decorate the tree


 My chocolate chip cookies finally turned out. New ovens are always tricky.
 We can't keep her away from the ornaments, I hear them bouncing off the tree all day long.
 She clearly has her mothers taste. I couldn't get her out of Pottery Barn and I wasn't about to buy her the $150 sheep.
 She does this new thing where she takes the stickers of EVERYTHING. She was going through the clearance isle and Sports Authority taking all the red stickers off. Whoops.
 The Cherry Creek Santa display is gorgeous.

 Patiently waiting for Santa.
 90 minutes and $30 later, we saw santa. They didn't allow me to take any on my phone. Kind of annoying considered I paid the money! For the record, she hated Santa with a passion.


Presents are wrapped and we are ready for Christmas!
