23.... && Christmas Time && Wedding Bells

Brady turned 23 in November!!! We celebrated his and Brittney's birthday at Classic Skating. Man oh man, I love classic skating! I started off with legit roller skates and I could not handle them.. I switched and rented real roller BLADES then all was well! Avery fell asleep on the drive down and slept through the entire thing!!! We sang, opened presents, ate cup cakes, and laugh/talked the night away while little Avery slept like a rock. She woke up for one last circle around the rink with Dad for his birthday! 

I made Brady a MOUNTAIN DEW birthday cake!

Brittney & Brady blowing out the candles :]

Brady & I leaving the country on our way to CANCUN!!!

{TEMPLE LIGHTS}

One of our Christmas traditions! We went with the Sheffield's and "Grammy Auger" 

It was so fun! They had all the different Nativities scenes, which upon approaching I said

"Look at the natives!" Which i continued to be teased the rest of the night.. oh well it was pretty funny.. :]

{CHRISTMAS}

Avery got spoiled this year for Christmas, actually we all got spoiled!

Avery got a dolly stroller/high chair 5 piece set from Santa

A Minney Mouse push car from Grandma & Grandpa Lister

Toy table from Aunt Mindi & Uncle Dan

A small wagon with a big monkey from Audree

Christmas jammies & cash from Grammie and Grandpa Auger

To name a few!

Brady got me a iPad 3!!! Clothes, towels, and perfume! {i'm totally spoiled..love him}

I got Brady two guns and some bullets, a few other small things

Together we got a ridiculously large 70 inch TV {it seemed huge when we brought it home.. now it just seems normal..}

Avery was not Santa's biggest fan.. to say the least! We tried twice and both times big crocodile tears came out and she wanted OFF! However, once safely in Mama's arms she would give him a high 5, and bump fists! Oh well, there is always next year!

 Jaxon got a new Dog House Tent! He loves it! He always want to be right next to the sliding door anyways!

 

Of course Daddy & Avery needed to test it before giving it to Jaxon! Those two are so cute together! Always playing!! {Love them}

 Avery & Taylor on Christmas Eve!! Look at these cute looking kids!! 

{BATH TIME}

 

Avery loves, loves, loves, loves {did i mention LOVES} Bath time! She is a little fish! She about dies when it is time to get out!

Avery is quite the {TODDLER}! She is so smart! I think we are officially off night time bottles, almost done with binkies, and working on talking & Sign language! She amazes me more and more everyday and i feel so privileged to be Her Mama! 

{WEDDING BELLS}

It is official folks!! Derick Taylor and {My sister} Brielle Auger are... ENGAGED!!! I'm so so happy for them! They are getting married April 4th!! Can not wait!!! It is going to be EPIC! Love you guys!!!
