Goldfield Mining Town and Holly's Visit

Brian's sister Holly was able to stay over with us for a few days this past weekend and we decided to venture out to Goldfield's Mining Town.  It was a fun short trip to the town, but it was something different and that was nice.   We had a nice gun fight while we were there, but poor Sam hated it.  She just can not handle loud noises.  She cried and cried while Kate kept pulling away while I was trying to cover her ears. 

Below are also a few pictures of Katelyn showing her sisterly love.  She is so affectionate and loves to give Sam hugs whether she likes it or not. 

Katelyn's 1st Birthday

Katelyn's first birthday was held out our house and it sure was full.  We loved having everyone over to celebrate her special day.  This party made me realize I really need to work on my cake making abilities.  Something I plan to spend more time on as soon as I finish school.

Christmas in Arizona

This year we had a full house just like last year, which I love.  It was fun to have everyone come over and hang out for the day and spend time together.   The girls loved Christmas morning....well mostly Sam.  She loved opening all the presents including ones that were not hers  She ripped through 5 nights of wrapping gifts in 20 minutes.  It was hard to watch, plus it happened so fast that I don't think I am in any of the photos.  Maybe next year we will be able to get her to slow down.  :)   Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas as well!
