We had a great time with Von's fam. Everyone, but Heather's fam was able to come. It was good to see everyone. Sammie loved having family in town. She loves attention and she got plenty! She loved her two uncles, Josh and Michael. Plus she now knows who Grandma and Grandma Doggett are and who Oma and Grandpa Higgs are. She points to pics around the house and she knows who is who. She is learning so much so fast. We had a great dinner and we all got to go see the new Harry Potter movie, which is awesome! We also did some black Friday shopping! Von and his brother's went out at 1am and got us a t.v. Then Von's mom and I went to JoAnn's to get some fabric. The lines were too long for us so we went back on Saturday and still got some awesome deals. We had a great weekend and I am so glad everyone came. I love spending the holiday's with family. For me the holiday's are not about what you get, but they are about who you spend them with. I am looking forward to Christmas in Idaho! I love seeing all of my fam! We have a great time together!

Sammie turns 2!

Ok so my little Sam is now two years old. She weighs 24 lbs. She is 33in tall. Her favorite movie is Toy story 3. She loves all things Mickey. Her favorite phrases are "No, Mommy!" and "Mine!" She likes to eat Cheetos and loves skittles. She also loves to dance and twirl. Every time a song comes on she starts dancing.

Train Ride!

So Von, Sam, and I went with some friends to Boulder City and rode the train. Sammie loved it! Plus there is are a bunch of old trains that you can look at.

Sam loved to be right at the railing looking out.

Our own little conductor!

Sammie and Von. The whole day she kept saying "Choo, choo!"

After the train ride we got lunch and went to a park. This was a way cool park. There were fun toys and to top it all off there was a huge herd of big horn sheep that like to graze there. It was so cool. There were about 35 sheep just hangin out. Sam loved looking at the sheep! Great weekend!
