A New Purpose

***For your information: This post was actually written the week of Thanksgiving. For some reason, YouTube decided to make the default setting when you click to "share" one of your videos to share the entire playlist that video was in. Aaaaand... I just figured out how to fix it. Happy day.***

There was a time when I really wanted to have a blog that everyone loved to READ. Not just a "here what happened this week" sorta deal. But a blog that was honestly entertaining for people to read. I have found that with that particular expectation placed on myself, I put off blogging. A lot. Because if I didn't have time to make it awesome, I felt like I shouldn't bother. 

Well, I've decided to throw all of that out the window. We have grandparents who live hundreds of miles away who need to see pictures and videos of their grandbabies, for goodness sakes! My new "purpose" for my blog is to offer glimpses into our lives. Not a journal. Not brilliantly written. Just little snapshots of the cuteness, hilarity, and reality that makes up who we are. 

So. To start us off...
HOW CUTE IS SHE!?
I know I already posted a Halloween shot of both the girls, but I just love this one, too.


Sometimes Skyping with the grand-parentals can get a little... frightening
I know it looks like I'm grabbing her head. Totally not. That's all kirby. 


Emily turned 3.
Don't believe what they tell you about the terrible two's. They don't actually end. 
THEY JUST CHANGE INTO A WHOLE NEW MONSTER!

A really cute, loving, extremely opinionated and stubborn monster.

For her birthday we invited a couple friends in the ward. It was very last minute (as in, I texted their moms the night before...). We kept it simple. Pizza. Cake. Balloons. 

And I totally underestimated the fun the balloons would be.
The kids LOVED them!


And for those of you who saw this picture on instagram and thought
"HOW!?!?"

Well, here's how...


That's all the craziness for today. 
Thanksgiving is at our place this year. Time to buckle down and clean some toilets!
