Maycee turns 2!

Maycee is spoiled rotten! 

 All the kids loved helping her open her presents

 She even got to open one every once in a while :)

 Anna taking a turn on Maycee's new slide

 I think her favorite part was when everyone sang happy birthday to her

 Sam is getting in some practice for his Birthday

and Maycee loving her ice cream 

Happy Birthday beautiful girl!

Thanks Charles Melissa and kids, Meghan Tommy and kids, and Grandma and Grandpa for celebrating with us and helping us eat the cake :)

A day in the Draper home

Just a few random things that go on in our house

 This is the day Maycee found the vaseline 

 lucky me she didn't get a lot on her clothes

 This is the day I got out the shower and found a bag of Cheetos dumped onto the floor with these two just munching away 

 Good thing they are cute :)

 This is a first in our house...all the tp unrolled

 Maycee's favorite place to watch tv is in the laundry basket..she has to have a pillow her blanket and chocolate milk...yeah she is the little princess in our home

Movies cannot be enjoyed unless your face is touching the tv 

Valentines Day

I woke up Valentines morning to a spotless house and some beautiful roses thanks to my most wonderful husband :)

 This was our delicious homemade meal

 Beautiful ribeye, loaded mashed potatoes, broccoli and some bubbly :) 

For dessert I made these absolutely scrumptious molten lava cakes.

Of course the kids had ramen and went to bed early that night so that we could enjoy our delicious meal...Is that horrible of us? ha ha

Christmas

Just a warning we are horrible parents who 

took only these pictures on Christmas

 This was Maycee's favorite! Thanks Great G&G Bowman

 Maycee and Sam were both so overwhelmed 

At least they were good sports

Grammy and Grandad came for Christmas this year.

We cannot wait til the kids understand the magic of Christmas, 

when they will actually enjoy it more then we do :) 

All in all it was a good Christmas

Christmas time

Putting up Christmas lights!

 Maycee tried so hard to go up that ladder

 Eric on the roof

 Maycee gave up on the ladder and tried the climb the wall 

Temple Square

 It was stinkin cold and stinkin crowded, but we 

still had a good time 

Thanksgiving

 To Grammy's house we go!

For Thanksgiving we headed to Boise, Id 

 Eric is thrilled to make the long drive

 Thanksgiving day...Maycee's first time on a trampoline 

 Grandad had everyone rake all the leaves before the big feast. 

These girls had a blast playing in the giant pile of leaves. 

 Sam was all too happy to participate in the photo shoot

 If this little boy could talk what would he be saying right now?

 All the rakes were being used so I thought I would 

take some pictures of everyone else working :)

 I had to get a picture of everyone playing with the cars...

This lasted probably 2 hours no joke ha ha

My favorite moment of the day..Maycee playing the piano with Grammy

We had lots of fun ate too much and didn't get any sleep :) it was a short trip but totally worth it!

A little catching up

It has been a long time I know...I have a lot to blog about so please be patient while I go back in time
