IT'S A...Christmas Miracle!

Such exciting things happening around these Herriman parts!!!....We found out on November 30th that little Pumpkin is...

I never knew how amazing ultrasounds could be. She was doing flips and moving throughout the entire ultrasound, she might be a gymnast! Now for coming up with a name....Joshua and I couldn't be happier :)

Christmas Paradise

Disneyland!!!

We have had so much fun lately... 

Last week we flew to California with Josh's family (most of them) and visited the Happiest place on earth!....Josh and I went down early and stayed in a sweet hotel (thanks to Priceline!) and enjoyed a day in Long Beach before we met up with the fam. We ate delicious food and took our first Taxi together. The Hilton had the most delicious continental breakfast as well that either of us have ever had. We had such a blast with family and literally loved every second of our getaway and last big trip before our little babe comes!

The new Cars ride that Josh and I stayed in line 90 minutes for...It was worth it though...

Lighting McQueen! 

California Adventure

SMALL WORLD...

Disneyland police cars...For my Dad

Josh and I love the time we get to spend with our adorable nephews Urban and Owen... The carousel was one of Urban's favorite rides with Uncle Josh.

Highlights & Memorials of our trip...

Delicious food, spending all week with family, Josh & Andy riding California Screamin' multiple times, chocolate covered frozen bananas, getting nauseous on Star Tours, missing rides due to pregnancy, our Shuttle driver Roger, sharing our hotel room with 6 adults and 2 kids, perfect weather (not too hot or too cold), the AMAZING fireworks show at Disneyland with fake snow afterwards!!! Truly Magical!

Happy Holidays!

Thankful

Thanksgiving was amazing this year. I felt overwhelmed with the joy and gratitude that I felt on that day as well as have been feeling the whole month long. This year, I was in charge of Thanksgiving! It was a blast. But how we do it in the Hill house is someone hosts it, and then divvies out the food assignments. (I don't know how people make the whole thing themselves!) Joshua and I were in charge of sweet potatoes, which were the best I've ever made. As well as couple other veggie and green bean dishes. I swear every year the food gets better and better, and this year, everyone's dishes were seriously top notch. I also made my first homemade banner, that I'm proud of! I am so grateful for my family and for time I get to spend with them. They are so fun. I am grateful for so many things...including this little guy...

My nephew, Ty Ty. Ever since he was born we have had a special connection. He is almost 20 months old, I can't even believe that. He is all smiles, and full of words and hugs, kisses and teases and helpful hands...

Here he is helping Joshua set up our new dining set. CUTEST thing ever. And last but not least, I am SO grateful for my husband. He has put together countless items of furniture the last few months for our home. He puts in long hours at work and does service calls and pretty much works overtime almost every week. He has a humor that is unique and is always entertaining myself and the fam. The time I get to spend with him I truly cherish, and I am grateful that I get to come home to him every night. 

Happy Thanksgiving 2012
