Happy New Year!!!!!

We had a good time in Michigan and had a pretty good new year! We played monopoly and ate a ton to ring in the new year. Sadly, I didn't win monopoly, BUT I did get second place!!! :D

Playing with the puppies (:

We left Michigan on the 3rd and had a pretty rough day. We were going to fly out of Flint, MI to Ohio, to Houston, to Salt Lake. Well, there was too much weight on the flight out of Flint so we volunteered to get on a different flight. Since we volunteered, we got two $250 vouchers to fly again, and we didn't pay for our bags. We also got a straight flight from Detroit to Salt Lake City. So we had Michael's dad take us to Detroit and we hung out there until our flight. What we thought would be a great flight turned out to be a terrible flight. Adelaide was so sleepy that she would not sleep. When she did finally fall asleep she only slept for a few minutes and then would scream. Imagine that on a 3 and a half hour flight. We finally landed, got a car after much trouble there, and went to our hotel. Once again Adelaide would not fall asleep. It took her at least 2 hours to finally fall asleep. Then she woke up early the next day. It was a crazy day.
So the next day we were going to hang around salt lake and what not but it turned out to be a really really cold day. So we went to lunch, walked temple square again, and then did the conference center tour. That was really fun but Adelaide was getting cranky. So we changed our time for the Salt Lake Express and headed home early. Thankfully Adelaide slept the whole way home.

Our tour guide was older, BUT he was bookin it through the tour!

The roof of the Conference Center was closed because of ice but it was still really pretty. (:

on the way home (:

We had the weekend to just be at home and be a family before we started school. So that was really nice. We did start school this past Monday. It started out really good, and then I rolled my ankle and had to walk all over campus with a swollen hurt ankle. That was awful. Both mike and I ended up dropping our last 12:45-1:45 class and went home early. Adelaide seemed to do really well at the babysitters house, Trish Dickerson. Which was really good because I was super worried about her all day. Since then we have both re-arranged our schedules a couple of times. It looks like we have a schedule that we are sticking with. We now have 3 classes together, which is actually pretty awesome. I enjoy college, especially college with my husband. (:
Adelaide has been super cute lately. She is crawling like crazy and has now learned to pull herself up onto everything! She also walks really well with help. My baby girl is growing up way too fast!! I love her so much and I realize more and more each day what a blessing she is. She may not have been in our plan at that time, but she was meant for us in God's plan. (:

standing in the bath look at those rolls!!!

we bought addi these bath toys, and they stick to the wall when they are wet...well they also stick to her head. (:

first time standing up in her bed....i guess we need to lower the mattress down now 

Well thats all for now. But one day in Michigan we found Annabelle with her head in the chip bag. It was really funny. So here are a couple of pictures to enjoy until the next time.
