Adrie's Birthday!

Happy 3rd birthday Adrie Lou Bell! Adrie Lou Bell has become this little nickname we call Adrie but she always says "don't call me Adrie you Bell-it's Adrie Janai Cox". Adrie's birthday was on Thanksgiving day this year which was fun because everyone was in town to celebrate with her. She was so sweet and waited all day for me to get to grandma's and make her Candy Land cake! She was really excited about her cake and her big day! I can't believe she is 3 already! When I was at the ER that morning Kris and I were remembering the day she was born and how Adrie and I got to spend that Thanksgiving at the hospital together. I love my little Adrie so much! Adrie you are so sweet and you are always thinking of others and what they need. You are so happy and energetic and it is fun to watch you growing and learning new things! I can't imagine our family without you and we love you so much! Happy Birthday!

Adrie was so cute opening her presents! She got so excited when she opened the barbie with the princess elephant and she kept saying "yes this is it! This is just what I wanted!" It was so cute! After each present she woud go give that person a big hug and say thanks! What a sweetheart! She got fun dressups (a whole bag full), Dora toys, Weeblos, and Strawberry shortcake! What fun to be a kid!
This is the best part of Turkey day! The naps after dinner. Chaly and Bree got a good one!

Black Friday-

So I still did a little shopping friday morning and it worked out nice because since the girls slept at my moms, I got to go back to sleep for like 4 more hours when I got back from shopping. I was only gone about 2 hours but I got the things I wanted and learned it is much more enjoyable and productive to go with someone. Julie and I met at Toys r us and it worked out great! Last year I tried it alone and it was not near as fun or productive! Later friday we headed to Provo to celebrate thanksgiving, Adrie's birthday and my brother in law's birthday. We had to pick Kris's brother up from the University hospital where he had ended up Thanksgiving night and had to undergo surgery on his finger. He sliced it open in his dad's wood shop and it was really bad. If you want to see a picture you can go to their blog- Tadd and Caitlyn).He had to come up to salt lake to get it fixed. Apparantly the hospital was a popular place on thanksgiving in our family. So after picking them up we went to Kris's parents and we all went to Brick Oven for dinner!

She got really cute clothes and some new pans for her kitchen and some littlest pet shop magnets!Birthdays are so fun!

Saturday night after the BYU Utah game we went to Tepanyaki for dinner with Kris's family. Adrie and Kyra had never been there before and they weren't too sure at first about the fire and cooking right in front of them but they seemed to like it after awhile. I LOVE the food there so it was a good way to end the holiday weekend!
