Mills Kids Christmas Party....

Bella got to sit on Santas lap, she was not sure what to really think. After about a minute she started to cry, but she loved the candy cane Santa gave her.

Gingerbread Houses

The kids and some neighbor friends over to make gingerbread houses, Megan and Kelseys turned out really cute, however... Jake had so much candy on his that it COLLAPSED!

I can't believe I am now in my 40's!

Yes I turned 41 December 13.....WOW, I'm getting old. Steve and the kids gave me a birthday party and got me my favorite cake "Nothing Bundt Cakes" Red Velvet bundt cake with cream cheese frosting.......YUM YUM!

Flowers Steve got me!!

Cowboy Christmas Las Vegas & NFR

Every year Steve's Business "S&S Barns and Buildings" is in the Country Christmas Expo down in Vegas. Since we had Bella with us this time we didn't get to do too much but I'm just glad she's here, so we can do more in the future. We did get to go to the National Finals Rodeo and Bella thought that was pretty exciting to see all the horses. We stayed at Harrahs because we can walk everyday to the Expo and I can leave to go back to the Hotel if I needed to with Bella. WE WILL NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN! We had a cold shower every morning and complained every mornnig and they said they would fix it....well...nope! Steve finally got upset and then they moved us to an upper suite the last 3 days. It was really nice and the shower was nice and warm(we had an awesome view)! We had a lot of fun with Bella and got some Christmas shopping done too!

Bella's cute Wrangler Butt!

We had a nice view from our room (the last 3 days)

Pictures of Bella

While my sister Jill was here visiting she took some pictures of Bella, Jill does such a good job. Here are just a few!! (Isn't she cute!!!)

Thanksgiving

We get to have 2 Thanksgivings every year because the Mills Family always has theirs the Saturday before. We all met at Saddle Up and had a great time with everyone. My sister Jill and her husband Jay came up to spend Thanksgiving with us this year so we all went to Steves brother Garys house for Thanksgiving. That night Jay had tickets for the Jazz game, they were palying the Chicago Bulls, it was a great game, although we lost.....go figure!

This was Bella's T-shirt

Jazz Game

Bella our little sportster!

Bella loves the Utes (actully her dad and brother do) and the Bronco's (and I love the Bronco's)! She wears her Ute Cheerleader outfit on games days. We were invited to a Bronco game party so of course she wore her Bronco outfit!

HALLOWEEN!

We had a huge block party outside for Halloween, we were nervous the beginning of the week because it snowed but it warmed up that day and was actually nice outside (it also helped that we had warmers and fire pits to warm up with). There was a huge turnout and the kids all had a good time. Steve and I were dressed for the 70's, Megan was "Where's Ms. Waldo (she didn't have the glasses on for the photo) Jake was a redneck, Kelsey was a dead cheerleader and Bella was a pirate. Bella fell asleep before we could get a family picture she was pretty exhausted with all the excitement.

Family Pictures

We went to Gardner Village to have Family pictures on Sunday, Steve took them with his camera and they turned out great! These are just a few......
