Happy Anniversary

It was the Crazy Gates' 3 year Anniversary January 5th. We celebrated by dropping the kiddo off with Grandma for the night and headed up to Johnson's Mill in Midway. We stayed in the largest room in the house with the Largest Bathtub! It was the size of my bathroom at home! It was a great night. I loved getting all dressed up in my little black dress- although it's much more little after 3 years, and we went to Ruth Chris in Park City.. I LOVE me some good Steak. It was a great little getaway. I luv my Shawnee. Thanks for 3 amazing, crazy, wonderful years!

Happy Happy Birthday McKenzie Dear!

Happy Birthday to my little blue eyed Bombshell! McKenzie's first birthday was a blast! We had a family birthday party with presents, potato bar, and of course cake! We bought McKenzie a smash cake all of her own. It was so cute!! She would NOT eat it, in fact she hated the taste, but she loved making a mess of it!

I thank my Heavenly Father every day for my little Angel. I can't wait to see what this next year will bring! McKenzie has mastered the art of scooting, loves to say "Duck" Mama" Dada"and "who's that?" She quacks like a duck, and is currently cutting 4 teeth at the same time, and Mom is no longer sleeping at night. She is 19 pounds, and really tall.. Not sure how tall, but she's got legs that her Mama never had. She hopes to pull herself up to a stand in a couple of weeks here. Stay tuned!

Snow Mobiling

We went with the Gates Family to American Fork Canyon to take the snow mobils for a spin.. Since I didn't get to last year, being extreemly fat and pregnant, I got first dibs and got the longest ride this season. It was awesome. McKenzie was so cute in all her snow clothes too. She went sledding with Daddy for the first time. It was great! Can't wait to buy one of my own.. After we buy a new house ... and a new wardrobe... and a new car.. and a new nose of course.. just kidding.. I love my clothes.. :)


I have no idea who this dude is.



McKenzie wore out before we even got out of the car!
