Sledding
Nate and I took Tessa sledding one weekend while we were up at Trappers and she loved it! She didn't know what to think at first but then got the hang of it.
Happy 50th Mom!
My mom turned 50 this year and I wanted to do a big surprise celebration, but anyone that knows her knows she would rather have something small and special. So instead of planning a big elaborate party that she deserves I just had a little dinner at my house with the people who matter most to her.
Just the 3 of us
I'm proud to say I'm definitely a lot like my mom
Love you mom, Happy 50th!
I only missed one minor detail... the candle for the cake! We had to improvise and use a 1 for #1 mom and grandma
Denise and Dave with my mom and Dennis

Christmas is here!
Unfortunately for some reason I didn't end up taking too many pictures of everything we did for the fun Christmas holiday, but here is a little taste of everything that we did...
Temple Lights
We went downtown and saw the beautiful temple lights with our good friends Chad and Priscila. Tessa loved looking all around at everything glowing!
Snug as a bug
Christmas Parties
I love going to Christmas parties each year and catching up with all your friends. This year Danielle hosted a very fun gingerbread making, gift exchanging party for our high school friends.
This is the best picture of the guys we could get. (Some of them)
The gingerbread houses lets just say were very.... interesting to say the least!
Annie and Brando's definitely won!
We also had an even bigger BHS Christmas reunion at Abby's. It was so fun to see girls who I hadn't seen for SO long. We all brought gifts that represented us in some way, and donated them to toys for tots too, such a great idea!
All the Whitney cousins with Santa
We went up to Trapper's before Christmas to celebrate with Nate's family. Sadly, this is the only picture I have of our fun time. All the girls love playing with each other and were so excited to open presents together from Nana and Grandpa. Tessa and Addison got their first official baby with a diaper bag and stroller. They LOVED them to say the least!
We were off to St.George to celebrate Christmas with my family. We had so much fun with Mitch, Janna, Dennis, my mom, and my grandparents who were there from Nebraska.

Christmas
This is Tessa in her Christmas dress in front of this awesome poinsettia. The only way we could get her to sit still was let her hold this little baby.

Although I guess it was a statue so it doesn't really count. Nate and I thought this was so funny. She fit on it perfectly! She looked like a born rider.
We went to the live nativity scene at the Tuacahn Theater on Christmas Eve. It was cold but so much fun! It's such a unique fun theater.

Winter is coming
I bought this coat on sale at gap the day I found out I was having a girl. I thought it would be the perfect size since the months matched up perfect with her age for the winter. It's definitely a little big but I still think she looks so cute in it! Maybe it will get some use next year too!
Just a little big
Now she just needs the snow
I just love this little face in such a big hood

Learning to putt with Dad
Of course Nate is teaching Tessa all about golf from an early age. He is starting with putting, this is her first lesson.
Ella's 5th birthday party
Ella had the cutest Fancy Nancy 5th birthday party ever! It was Tessa's first "big girl"' party and she had so much fun! It was so fun seeing her sit with all the big girls eating their fun lunch.

The cute setup
She loved the marshmallow sticks

Two fun outfits I couldn't miss posting!
Bobbie bought Tessa this cute comfy winter dress and took these pictures. I just love her little face in these!
She's like a little snow bunny!
Priscila bought Tessa her first Brazilian bikini and Havaianas for her birthday! The itty bitty yellow bikini was so dang cute! She still has to grow into it a little bit but I just had to snap a few pictures.
