Happy 34th Bryce!

Happy BIRTHDAY BRYCE!!!!

For Bryce's birthday, I surprised him with tickets to Brian Regan! If you ever get the chance to go to Brian Regan...GO!!! It was hilarious! The following night we celebrated as a family and gave Bryce the rest of his presents.

As you can see, Bryce got a new 5 wood! And yes, this normal for Bryce!!! ;) People always think Bryce is so serious and professional.....we at home know otherwise! ;) hahaha!

Doing the Bull Dance! Workn' it, Workin' it!

Practicing....watch the follow through HUN!

After dinner we played games! Who doesn't love a good game of headbands?!

Happy Birthday to the best hubby ever! Love ya!

Happy 9th Birthday Kaybree!

I can't believe my Kaybree is 9! She really is the sweetest, most caring girl around. She is always so concerned about everyone else. She is always trying to do the right thing and is always looking out for her little sister Oakley. She really is such a joy to our family!

We LOVE you KAYBREE!!!!!

Happy 9th Birthday Love Bug!

Some things Kaybree likes right now are:

Kaybree loves to do any kind of craft: Paint, Color, make jewelry, etc.

Kaybree loves to play school and be the teacher. (Maybe it's her way of being able to boss Oakley around?)

Some of Kaybree's favorite music artists are: Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and is on and off with Justin Bieber. She said she stopped liking him because he got his ears pierced and got a tattoo! Then she heard his Christmas CD and kinda fell in love again! ;)

Her favorite movie is: "Monte Carlo" staring Selena Gomez

Kaybree is loving her gymnastic class right now. She has her back handspring and side aerial and is working on her front aerial! (so proud!)

Poor Kaybree...she has pink eye for her birthday! :(

Kaybree opening a few presents from her grandparents!

This year we didn't have a birthday party for Kaybree's birthday. After the age eight, we only do parties on the even years...so next year we'll do it big time! This year we ended up having a late night with a few friends...these girls are crazy fun! Love them!

CHRISTMAS!

This Christmas was actually a very calm one for us! Don't get me wrong we had lots to do, and were running from here to there, but this year felt like a well oiled machine. Christmas Eve was spent with Bryce's family. Christmas morning we opened presents had a wonderful breakfast, then went up to my parents for the rest of the day! It really was nice!

The girls Christmas morning.

Their favorite present: Heely's

Bryce and my Dad had fun teaching the girls to "ride!"

They caught on really quick!

Let the Christmas Parties Begin!

We are so lucky to have so much family near by! We are able to enjoy parties all season long!

Look at that back side!!! WOW!

The NEWBOLD FAMILY BINGO PARTY!!!

Kaybree had some awesome BINGO cards!!!!

Christmas Recitals!

The girls did such a good job with both of their Christmas Recitals!

They have loved being in tumbling and have both come such a long way this year!

They were both in the same dance class this Christmas. They danced to "Run Run Rudolph" I love watching them do their thing! So fun!

Temple Square and The Marriott!

We had so much fun seeing the light down town this year!

There is no better way to get into the Christmas Spirit than seeing the lights at Temple Square!

Of course we had to have some HOT CHOCOLATE as we braved the COLD!

We decided to stay down town at the Marriott and enjoy the entire night! The girls absolutely LOVED it!

Off Track and Ready for Christmas!

While we were off track in November, we started our Christmas traditions! We also had the first snow fall!

First snow fall for 2011!

We wrote our letters to Santa

Kaybree wants: Mega Make-up Kit, Password Journal, Initial Tote

Oakley wants: Mini Locker, Password Journal, My Salon Doll

We made some chocolate peppermint cake!

Then mailed off those Santa letters!

Happy Halloween! (just a few months late!)

Yes, I know it's been a LONG time! Here is a small glimpse of our Halloween fun! I bet you never would have guessed that I gave birth to a cat and a witch! Here they are!

Aren't they the cutest ever?!

There is a witch and a cat on my front porch!

We had to seat belt the pumpkin into the car because it wouldn't fit in the trunk!

The ginormous pumpkins that Bryce's dad grew!

1st Day of School!

Yes that is right, we have already started our first day of school! Kaybree is so excited to be a third grader this year, and Oakley is just as excited to begin first grade! Oakley is going to be doing things a little different this year...she is going to be learning Chinese! Oakley was accepted into the Chinese Immersion program at our school! So if you see her, and can't understand a thing she is saying, just smile and say "Ni Hao!" (knee how)

Swimming lessons! My girls are already pretty good swimmers, but I like putting them in swim lessons as a refresher each year! YAY for swimming!
