Back in ky

Our trip was only 10 days long and now we are back in Ky. The day we flew back i was 36 weeks so we didn't want to push it. When we walked in the door there was a package waiting for us from my family with gifts. So that would mean blake hada 3 christmas's this year, he must be loved:)
He was thrilled to get more toys and loves each and every one.
Blake rides around the house with his new dump truck.
During one of the days we had off we went to the zoo cause it was such a nice day. We let blake run around and see all of the animals. Here is a ape that came right up to the window and was just as interested in us and we were in it. Blake was a little nervous, but still thought it was great.

Barratt Family Christmas in Az

We got to Az on the 17th and Tanner's little sister Laura was getting married on the 18th, so we flew in just in time for all the hustle and bustle of a wedding. We got there in the morning, had a picnic in the park, got ready and went to a dance laura's new husband's, Aisea, family held. The next morning we were getting stuff ready for the reception and at 2pm they were married in the Az Temple. That evening there was a sit down dinner held for them that was absolutely beautiful. As soon as the wedding was over everyone started to get ready for christmas with only a few days left. Tanner was able to go to a suns basketball game, and shooting with his family and friends. I was able to go to the russian ballet of the nutcracker and get my nails and makeup done. Blake got to play with his cousins, go to the park, pond, and best of all play outside in the warm weather everyday. So, overall it was a good trip.

Here is Tanner and Blake getting ready to go to the wedding dinner.

We got to go to the train park and see all of the lights. we were going to ride the train, we had tickets and everything, but the line was so insanely long, worse then disney land in the summer, we decided to come back another time. Everyone there had already rode the train before so it wasn't a big deal.
Christmas morning at the Barratts! It was a big christmas this year totaling 15 people (this is only tanners siblings, their spouses, their kids, and his parents) Tom (dad), Jane (mom), Christian, Kara, brighton, ellie, tanner, me, blake, Laura, Aisea, Johnny, Elise, Jami, and Jack. I think this just blows my mind because my family is so much smaller then tanners. totally 7 people last time we were there:)
Blake slept pretty well while we were there but he picked one day to sleep in and it was christmas morning. Tanner finally had to go and wake him up cause everyone was waiting and we didn't want him to miss all the fun. Grandma got him some fun xmas pjs and he, again, had to stop after each toy so dad could put it together and he could play with it for a few minutes before moving to the next one.

It such a fun trip and it was so nice to see family again. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Ky Christmas

Before we headed up to Az for Christmas we decided to do our own little Christmas here in Ky. We thought it would be fun to do our own little family thing plus i didn't want to ship the gifts we got for each other to Az then ship them back home, kind of seemed like a waste of precious luggage space.

I was so excited that it snowed before we went to Az so we were able to have a little bit of a white christmas this year. We took Blake out into the snow and this was pretty much the face he had on the whole time... wasn't sure if he liked it.
Blake had fun on our christmas morning. There is a sit 'n spin in nursery that he loves so we decided to get him one. He started to climb on it before tanner could finish putting it together. We had to stop after he opened each gift so he could sit and play with it for a few minutes.
Here is our tree Christmas morning! notice how there are no ornaments on the bottom half? anyone with a one year old wonder why?
Here is our fire place all ready for santa! there are four stockings, one for tanner, me, blake and baby girl Barratt!
i wasn't sure what to get my siblings this year for christmas so i decided to make them something. It always means more when you put time and thought into a gift, and since we wouldn't be there this year i thought they might enjoy something for their room.
