Christmas and New Year's

We had a wonderful Christmas and New Years! Danny had some time off which was very nice. We went to several movies over the holiday break, spent time with our families, went sledding and even got some projects done around the house! I hope that Everyone else had a relaxing and enjoyable Christmas as well.

ARRRRR!!!

This year for Halloween Owen and Grandpa Tracy were PIRATES!

We had a weekend full Of HaLLoween Adventures...


Halloween Party At G & G Tracy's
Aiden: Ironman, Andre: Thriller M.J. Jackson: Darth Vader, Whiteny: Biker chic,

Shay: cheerleader, Owen: Pirate


Owen loved the painting pumpkin project.








Trick or Treating at the Mall! I thought this was going to be a nightmare, but since we got there an hour before it was supposed to start, it was so much fun! We cruised through in an hour and just before the crowd hit.




We had to stop at the dinosaur playground and hit the slide a few times too.











Just as we were leaving we ran into our friend AVA! What a pretty princess



Reaping the benefits of hard work.

Party at G & G Gardner
Danny threw himself a costume together right when he got to his parents house. Thanks to his dad who still had his old Springville basketball attire.


Daisy: Angel, Jackson: Turtle, Annie: Genie, Ruby: Unicorn, Bode: ninja, Owen and Lane

Couponing!


Has anyone else gotten in touch with their frugal side and tried couponing like I have? I must say at first, I felt like a cheap O! But now I absolutely LOVE it! My mom has always raised me as a "bargain shopper", but I never really thought about doing it with groceries. The deals that you can find, and free stuff you can get will definitely keep me couponing for life!! Some of my favorite sites to check out are www.pinchingyourpennies.com and www.savvyshopperdeals.com. If you are new to couponing it does take some time to figure out, but hang in there. You are basically combining your coupon with the item you want goes on sale in the ads. The more coupons you have the more stuff you can stockpile. I would love to help anyone with questions, and would love to hear some comments from anyone's deals.
If you are not into couponing and you get the Sunday paper, I would love to take your coupon inserts off of your hands!

Baby Girl Names

I still have 3 months to think of a name for this baby girl. Currently she is nameless. I have come up with a few things, but nothing that I am just absolutely loving. Does anyone have any Fabulous, kindof Original names, but nothing too weird? Chances are if you do have a fabulous name, you are holding on to it for your future child. I understand. My husband is not a big fan of giving a girl a boys name. I on the other hand I don't mind. Here are a few of the names, please feel free to vote on your most favorite from my current selection.
