Our Beanie Model

My mom has been making beanies for all the grandkids in the family. Emree of course got a hot pink one and we were trying to have her model it for us. Every time she would go to pull it off, we would tell her "no no no" and she would actually leave it alone surprisingly.

So serious, I love it.

This is her famous crinkle-nose smile.

She wouldn't take this piece of pizza crust out of her mouth...its a good thing she looks cute with it in her mouth.

Warning...LOTS of pictures!

Ok it seems like every time I post on my blog lately, I'm always playing catch up. Here are some pictures of some more snow we got with one of the last storms we had a couple of weeks ago. Then we took a quick trip to Vegas to visit Rey's family. The kids love going to visit Grandma and Papa Fast, they think going to Vegas is so cool. We had a really fun time with them.

This is the little beanie that my mom made for Emree. She doesn't keep it on her head for very long, so I caught this pic right before she yanked it off.

The boys think the snow is so awsome. If you notice in this pic Braxton is doing his favorite pose for the camera, you will see this "pose" in the next couple of pictures of him. He's such a funny boy.

Here it is again.

This girl loves to bounce in her jump-a-roo.

Ok so we call Emree our little puppy because she always has something hanging out of her mouth, like toys, blankets, shoes, you name it.

AND once again...he even does it while he's talking on the cell phone. :)

I love how whenever I take a picture of Gavin with Emree, he always has to be touching her somehow. So sweet, he's such a good big brother.

This is Emree with her cousin Emmett (Rey's sister Aubri's little boy). As you can see, Emree wasnt in the mood to play I guess, because when I sat her next to him all she would do was cry. She was being a little stinker. Poor Emmett was trying to be so nice to her and she wanted nothing to do with it. I love how he's putting his hand on her shoulder. Emmett is the sweetest little guy.

Here they are again and Emmett seemed so concerned with her, he didnt understand why she kept screaming.

Handsome BOY!!

This was after her nap. A VERY much needed nap.

OuR LiTTle GeT AwaY!!

Rey and I were able to go on a little 2 night 3 day get away, thanks to my parents who were willing to watch our kiddos. We went to Disneyland and LA. Rey surprised me by reserving us a room at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel, in the heart of Los Angeles. I was SO excited when we pulled up and he told me that that was where we were staying. I was amazed at how huge and beautiful it was on the inside and out. We watched the Super Bowl, there at the hotel in it's lobby/bar area, where they had like 10 huge flat screens on the walls. It was fun to watch it even if it was with people we didnt know...we met some nice people there and enjoyed the game together. Later that night we made an appointment at the hotels spa to have a couples massage done. Oh my gosh, it was so relaxing and neat to have Rey right next to me. We each got a 75 minute massage and it was funny because when they were done, they both had to wake us up and when we stood up we were both so relaxed that we could hardly even walk. We got back to our room around 11:30pm and vegged. We watched Four Christmas' (cute movie) and then fell asleep. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect night. Then we woke up and went to Disneyland. We had a blast, well how can you not have fun at the "Happiest Place on Earth" right? The next day we went to downtown LA to Olvera St. For those of you who have never been there, it is a Mexican Marketplace, where you can shop and eat authentic Mexican food. Rey was so cute....he was so excited to go there because he wanted to use his Spanish and eat some of the food that reminded him of his mission. I loved watching him speak Spanish, I don't know what it is, but it just touches my heart to see him interact with those people. Well we had an amazing time! It was nice to be able to focus just on each other for those couple of days, and not have to worry about kids or work.

We bought this brick when we were on our honeymoon.

In the Westin Bonaventure

Rey at the pool at like 10:30pm. The pool was really warm but it was too cold for me outside to get in.

Watching the Super Bowl

This is what I did while Rey went swimming.

This is just a glimpse of what the hotel was like on the inside.

Rey messing around

I loved our windows, as you can see they went from the floor to the ceiling. The view was awesome, especially at night.

These two pictures were our view from our room.
