Valentine Pictures

These pictures are just so dang CUTE! I made an amazing friend up here that happens to be a photographer! For a play date this week we got together with a another friend and look some fun Valentine pictures. It was a lot of fun dolling up the girls. This was the first time putting curls in Miley's hair...and surprisingly she stayed still!! (I let her play a game on my phone)
I just love there tutu's, it made the pictures perfect!

'ahhh." She's so happy! Or so happy that she gets a sucker!

So sweet. I love this one!

I LOVE this one of Makayla.

December!

DECEMBER!

Man, oh man the month of December has been so CRAZY! Probably the craziest month in our whole married life!

1)We started out the month celebrating Makayla FIRST birthday on the 7th!! I know everyone says that there kids grow up fast, and it's so true. I can't believe that this time last year we had little newborn. I remember taking newborn pictures and stuffing her into a stocking. How did she get so BIG so quickly?
So here are a few things about Makayla....
*She is a mimic. She tries to copy everything Miley says and does. Really cute.
*She has the cutest 'zoolander' face ever. She does this quite a bit.
* We call her our 'scooter bug'. She gets where ever she wants by scooting on her belly like a GI-Joe. (Miley actually had the same exact scoot)
*Makayla is super tall for her age, 95 percentile for height.
*She has been SICK for 3 months straight! First the stomach flu, then a head cold, then an ear infection, stomach flu again, and now another head cold!  I don't know what it is about this girl getting sick all the time, it's no fun for the both of us!
* When she's not sick, Makayla is a very content, easy going, and happy baby. She always has been. We love our happy Makayla!
*She has 8 teeth!
*Some of her favorite foods include: Pirates booty, bananas, bread, pasta, yogurt, and any jarred baby food. She is such a stinker at trying new foods, but were working on it. :)
*She's just discovered stairs! (We had stairs but we always blocked them off cuz they are so steep)
*She had her first haircut a month ago. I know, I know she doesn't need one, but I can't help myself, it's what I do!
*She love's earrings, or those that are wearing them!
*She is a binky baby, and the funny thing is that she only likes those green newborn ones.
* She's loves being outside. Going on walks, swinging on swings, and playing on the grass
*Love's her baths, especially with her sister.
*She's mamma's cuddle bug, when Miley is asleep and it's just me and her.

I could go on and on about this girl, she is such a fun girl!

We celebrated  by going to Red Robin! Miley had fun feeding Makayka her birthday ice cream.

It's my birthday!

Opening presents!

We had another small party for Makayla at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

2) Cory Graduated!!! We've been waiting a long THREE years to get to this point! It really still feels so surreal to us. Did we just graduate? I say "we" because it defiantly has takin both of us to put him through school. All those long hours at school and clinic has paid off.


The best part about Cory's graduation was that not only did his family come see this glorious event...but his brother Kyle drove 27 hours just to see him graduate. The best part was that Cory had no clue that his brother was coming. As Cory was walking down to his seat at the ceremony, there was his brother standing in the aisle. It was an emotional moment for the both of them.  Ahhh brotherly love :)

The Osborne Family! It's so nice to be supported and loved by family and friends....THANK YOU!

Cory and Kyle.

Doesn't he look so cute?

3)For those that don't know WE'VE MOVED back to Washington. We're currently living with Cory's parents until we can afford and find a place to rent.
But man, packing and moving sure takes A LOT out of you, especially since we did it on the day of Cory's graduation and that we have 2 kids. I really didn't realize how much STUFF we have until we started pulling everything out and into the moving truck....which by the way was the same size of truck we moved to California with! What was my husband thinking, thinking that we could fit our stuff in that truck. But he ushered me over and over that he could do it....man i LOVE it when I'm RIGHT! The important part is that we made it to WA with all our stuff, yes we had to shove stuff into our car, my sister-in-laws car, and the front seat of the moving truck. It was a tight ride up!
We started out our road trip with my nephew having the stomach flu! Poor kid, we felt so bad for him! Then the flu spread to...Cory, Miley, Makayla, my in-laws, Krystal, and Dallin. Just when we thought we were in the clear we all cought bad head colds, including Makayla...again!

Part of our road trip. I just love it when there sleeping, there so cute. I love this picture, she has her tongue sticking out and everything.

4) Cory started WORK!! I can't believe he's started so quickly from graduation. It's so nice to finally be making money now...the only sad part is that we started work during the holidays so we wont be able to see him that much. Still money is nice :)
Cory's really excited about working with Pete Hansen, we've heard lot of good things about him and his business. He's planning on working with him for 2 years, and during this time he plans to learn as much as he can about Pete's business and his success rate.
This will be another wild adventure, but were ready!!


5) Ummm...Christmas is this week? What? How did that happen? I guess I'll be posting more later....

FALL

FALL!!

I absolutely love the fall season, it defiantly is my favorite time of year! Since we've been living here in the bay area, we've made a tradition of going to Half Moon Bay. This time around we decided to go during the weekday instead of the weekend. And boy, it does make a difference! We didn't have to deal with all the crazy traffic, lines, and hoards of people. In fact, there was like no one there at all, no one was even there to supervise...so we got to do all the things that you usually have to pay money for....like the petting zoo, jummy house, playground, and train ride.  It was a lot of fun, were so sad that this is our last time that we get to enjoy Half Moon Bay :(

ng

For some reason whenever we go to half moon bay, we have a crying picture...I guess it's a tradition. haha

Miley loved this 'choo cho' train!

 

She loved it even more when mommy went on the ride with her!  I barely fit in it, haha!

She got brave enough to pet the goat.

'peek-a-boo'

 Orchard Fun!

So I was able to go pick some fruit and vegetables at a local orchard with Cory's sisters family. Cory was gone at a seminar in Chicago...would of been more fun with him there, but we still had lots of fun without him.  The apples were so delicious!

Absolutely LOVE this girl!

Miley and Carter holding hands....so sweet. :)

Happy Halloween!!

Since Halloween falls on Sunday this year we celebrated it early by going to our ward Trunk or Treat. It was a fun crazy night! We didn't last too long, Makayla goes to bed at 7....

The Cheer squad...and our Jock!!  haha.   

Miley was a SeaHawks cheerleader, Makayla was a BYU cheerleader, I was a Timpview cheerleader (yes, that was my old high school cheer outfit), and Cory was a football Jock from SF.

Miley are her best friend Lizzy or 'izzy' as Miley calls her.  Were going to miss you when we leave... :(

My happy BYU cheerleader

Now isn't that the cutest SeaHawks cheerleader you've ever seen?

Lake Powell Trip

Lake Powell Trip - Miley's Birthday - Provo Trip

During our last and FINAL break of Chiropractic school we spend in Lake Powell and in Provo. I still cant believe that we will be finishing up school in like 2 months! I guess I'm still in denial about leaving. I really love living in the bay area, we've made some life long friends here. We love the ward, the steet, the weather, the million places to tour, and all the HELP we've gotten through the state such as medi-cal/food stamps/wic/rent/gas/books! Seriously it really pays to be poor, haha! We've been so blessed not having to worry about those things.

Anyways, Lake Powell was so much FUN! My oldest brother actually works down at Lake Powell in one of the resorts there. Every year they let him rent out a house boat...for free! This seriously was THE biggest house boat on Lake Powell...a 75 foot to be exact! Anytime we floated by people we could see them gawking and sometimes could see them mouthing the words 'look at that boat'.... In the past whenever we've gone to Lake Powell we've just camped on the beach, so having house boat was a luxury! It was especially nice because we had babies, without the house boat we probably couldn't do it!

Here's the boat! There was even a hot tub on top! Not that we needed one though...


We started out our our trip celebrating Miley's birthday! I'm so sad that she didn't have the birthday party we planned for her before we left, but our plans changed and we ended up canceling it! Instead we spent it traveling down to Lake Powell...not the best birthday for her I'm sure. But she's 2, she probably wont remember it anyways.
When we got my brother's place that night I had a small family party planned. I made some homemade red velvet cupcakes....that ended up getting squashed...haha. We'll they tasted good, so that's all that matters, right?

I just cant get over the fact that she is 2!! Seriously where did the time go? I love the stage she is in right now. She's talking so much now, half of which I have no clue what she's saying. She's learning so much, she seriously picks up on a lot! So far she knows most numbers, shapes, and letters of the alphabet. Right now she's learning colors....and potty training! ahhh! Our goal is to have her potty trained by the time we leave here. Well see how well that goes....

Happy Birthday Miley!


Cory doing his fancy back flip!


Me on the Wake Board. Nope, can't do any fancy tricks....what you see is what you get. Haha


Playing on the beach with Makayla. She really loved splashing around!


One of our favorite things to do in Lake Powell is Cliff Jumping! I can't believe I caved in and jumped off a 50 foot cliff! This video is of us jumping off.
The guys were crazy and decided that 50 feet wasn't high enough...so the jumped off a 60 foot one!!

We had fun burying Uncle Sid! Cory added a nice touch...haha


This was the funniest thing ever!!


Miley loved going on the 'boot'. She really loved playing with her cousins, and playing on the beach.





Ready to eat lunch on the house boat.


There wasn't any bathtubs, just showers on the house boat...so we gave all the kids baths in the sink. Miley defiantly has out grown the kitchen sink...but it was still really cute.


Miley did SO good on the boat. We didn't hear a peep from her the whole boat ride! She'd just sit there with her sun glasses and life jacket on.


Yumm...and oh so messy!


Miley and cousin Parker reading with Grandma.


Beach bon fire! Makayla was sleeping...


After our week in Lake Powell we spend a week at my parents place in Provo.
It was so nice to be able to have a relaxing weekend, and have some fun as well.


Makayla hanging out on grandma's couch. Can you see the 2 teeth on the bottom? While we were in Utah she cut through another tooth on top...so she was a little sinker. A cute little stinker though :)
Also on this trip she started picking up her first words! "Uh-oh, da-da, and hi!!' And just this week 'wow'.


The cousins in there PJ's. My mom watched Parker for a week while Lori went on a girls vacation. (Congrats to Lori by the way...expecting a new baby girl!!)


Date Night! Cory's good friend from BYU-Idaho and his wife went to Comedy Sports with us to listen to some stand up comedy. So fun! I haven't laughed so hard in a really long time.


Some girl fun. I love hanging out with my childhood friend, Kristy when I come home. We have the tradition of going to Panda Express and then shopping or a movie...this time we saw a movie. One of my favorite things about Provo is the dollar movies! I'm sad they don't have one here.
