it's been a while....

I don't even know how to make up for everything that has been going on in our life for the past 6 months, so I will just do some highlights.

We gained a new nephew, Mark, the end of November. He is Preston's older sister's little boy and he is such a sweetheart!

We had a wonderful Christmas and did the traditional visit to temple square and had lots of fun visitors come and stay with us throughout the month of December.

We spent Christmas Eve & Christmas Day in Moab with both of our families. It was a short, quick trip but we were very grateful to be there, even though it was only for a short time.

After Christmas it was straight back to work. Preston kept teaching snowboarding lessons up at Sundance and doing his best not to get hurt..... (he's a little accident prone). Clearly he wasn't successful.

As for myself, I've kept busy working at the GateHouse and doing some design on the side. I have been EXTREMELY busy but it really has been great. I absolutely love what I do.

Towards the end of January, I had a girl's trip to Vegas with two of my sisters and my Mom. We had a blast but we sure missed Miss Emily! :) While we were there we went to the Vegas Furniture Market. It was heaven! I absolutely loved it. If only I could convince Preston that we need all new furniture now....haha

Some of my design faves from the show: 

LOVE LOVE LOVE these poufs!!!!

I absolutely NEED a rug like this under my kitchen table. It's a must.

Sisters at Serendipity sharing a GIGANTIC frozen hot chocolate.

And this is my dream sofa. I realize it's white and I'm crazy for even considering putting that in my home but I absolutely love it! I'm saving my pennies for that beauty. :)

This post is "to be continued". It's late and I'm getting drowsy. Not a good combination for me! I promise I'll really be back soon this time!
