Gingerbread Houses

We got together with Jenny and Codi and their girls to make gingerbread houses while we were in Utah.  I was worried about what Marc would do to entertain himself while we decorated, but he quickly stepped in to help the little girls with their houses.  I was very impressed and told him that now I knew he could handle a little girls birthday party all by himself when the time comes.

12.15.12 Caitlin's Wedding

Marc's sister Caitlin got married while we were in Utah.  It was such a wonderful day.  She was a beautiful bride and she married an amazing guy.  It was a great way to start out our trip to Utah.

She was married at the Logan Temple.  It was freezing, but that didn't seem to bother Ezra as we took photos out on the temple grounds.

I failed to get any decent pictures of Caitlin, so I had to steal this one taken by the photographer from Caitlin's Facebook page.  I love this photo of the three siblings.

Ezra loved hanging out with his cousins at the hotel during the wedding and the reception.

And we always love being with Grandma Moyes!

And of course, our little boy who loves to eat could not stay away from the cookie table.  It didn't take him long to figure out how to use the tongs to get what he wanted.

He had no time even for the bride when there were more cookies to be eaten!

Much time has passed and much more has happened since I last posted.  I was looking at the photo of Ezra in the pumpkin patch in my last post and the little boy in that photo seems to be long gone...most of that hair is gone for one, but also he is finally walking which has changed everything.

I've been horrible about taking photos as of late, but I do have some from our trip to Utah over the Holidays.  I plan to spread these out over several posts to make catching up on our blog a little less overwhelming for me.

To start out, here are a few of us on the farm in Mona.  I think it was around 15 degrees that day, so after being outside for a while Ezra kept looking at Marc and me like, "Why are you torturing me?"  Maybe if it had been a bit warmer he would have enjoyed riding the cows a little more.  He loved riding the tractor, however.
