2008 Brown's Christmas Party

December 6th, 2008 Festival of Trees and Temple Square

The Stranges came down from Logan and we all went to the Festival of Trees, then to Texas Road House for dinner and then down town to Temple Square. Jace asked Santa "where are your Reindeer are they still at the North Pole?" He is so much fun this year with Santa.


Kaylee is not so sure about Santa just yet.




Chris met up with us at Temple Square, he loves when any of the Nielsen's come into town. I love going down town and seeing all the lights and the sound of the horses pulling the carriages.


Of course Trevor is happy as can be

December 12th, 2008 Red Lobster

I know it is past Chris and Grandpa Gary's Birthday's but we just got around to Celebrating them. We went to Red Lobster. Jace loves the Lobster tank in the front.

December 8th, 2008 Papa's 57th Birthday @ Rodizio Grill

This was a really fun night, It was my Dads Birthday and we wanted to take him somewhere we wouldn't have to read a menu and had something he would eat. We made reservations at Rodizio Grill, which none of us have ever been to, and the food and atmospher was so... good. After dinner we had cake and ice cream at our house.

I love this picture because it makes him look like such a cute Grandpa. I cant believe he is 57 years old, he still rides horses, and motorcycles, he cant be 57.

December 5th, 2008 Zoolights

Last night Me & The Boys, Rachelle and Lex and Eliza and her 4 girls all went to Zoolights, we had such a great time. When we 1st got there we could not believe the amount of people, we thought we were going to have to park a mile a way, luckily we snagged a spot right in front. Then when we got out and stood in line we realized that it was 29 degrees out ( let me remind you that, that is below freezing) so we almost backed out then... but the kids wanted to stay.
By the time we got inside and started looking at everything we were numb, and it didn't matter how cold we got:) We had the greatest time.


I had Trevor so bundled, it just wasn't possible for him to get even a chill.


We looked at the animals and lights.


Had Hot Chocolate


and rode the Carousel. By the time we were ready to head out we looked around and as usually we were one of the last people at the Zoo. The gate to get out had already been closed.


So around 10 o'clock we decided to go to the Training Table, like any crazy mom's would do. We let the kids sit at there own table, they loved that, and they ate really good, all of them eating off of each others plate and passing there drinks around, we ended up with a community Sprite. Lets just say it was a late night, me and the Boys got home at 1AM.


Another Great Day!!!

It's Christmas Time

Thanksgining 2008

This is Thanksgiving morning, , I had almost everything ready the day before, along with having everyone bring something, we had such a relaxing morning waiting for the family to show up.


We had Thanksgiving at our house this year, it was really great I got to have Thanksgiving with both my Mom and Dad, and most of Chris's family came, it was really awesome.




I figured out a way to arrange the tables so we could all sit in the same room.


Mama put a big gob of mashed potatoes in front Trevor, he ate till he couldn't put another drop in his mouth, Grandpa Jerry reaped the rewards:)



Finger lickin' good, after dinner everyone stayed and watched the football game and played pool.

November 24th, 2008 Trevor's 7 mos. check-up

Today we had Trevor's 7 month check-up and he is doing just great, he weights 16 lbs. 5 ozs. (16% Centile) and 27 inches tall (52% Centile).
He can sit by his self unassisted
He just got his two bottom teeth ( aren't they cute!!!)
When I put him on his belly he will get up on his hands and knees and rock back and forth ( I think we are getting really close to crawling)
If you smile at him he smiles back, and most of the time squeals with excitement
He begs for what ever we are eating and loves everything I put in his mouth.
He sleeps about 8 hours straight through the night, although he falls asleep around 8pm so by 3am he is wide awake ( we are working on that)
I am sure that Trevor is going to be my little comic relief he is always smiling and is so light hearted.
