Lambourne Loop: Sick, Holiday Activities

We went to Danny's usual Monday night basketball game which was fun as usual.  However, the team didn't do too well and Danny was pretty frustrated, but I had fun gabbing with the other wives.

So first off my Aunt was rummaging through some things this week and found this entry about me and my little cousin Elle I just thought it was  so sweet I had to save it!

I picked up these two festive nail polishes this week! I just thought they were so pretty!!

 I have been lucky enough to get some short gross sickness my head is killing and I'm achey all over and just want it to go away. So in my sickness stupor, my little kitty decided to snuggle with me while I slept.... I know I know someone went a little picture crazy.

This week was alway the studios Christmas Recital didn't go as great as I had planned but we learned a lot of interesting lessons and we had A LOT of new dancers who had never performed before so it was just a little crazy.

Not to mention I got to meet my sisters AMAZING dorm parents CORY AND GRETCHEN!! They are seriously such sweet and amazing people it was so nice of them to come out.  And Gretchen come to the Christmas recital and Cory went to the Jazz game with grandpa.

Last but not least, we had our Stake Christmas presentation for church.  I played a flute part for it... and was so tried after I just went home while Danny and grandpa stayed behind to watch the rest of the program. 

We hope everyone is enjoying the season and each other! :D

Lambourne Loop: Christmas Decorating, Snow, Vlogging with Friends

Last week started off with Rec Basketball for Danny.  I come and video the games.  His team is't very good but Danny loves to play. Here was the score from their last game they lost by 1!!  :/

Last week I also got an influenster box which had free products in it to review! Fun!!

I've also been working on my flute part for the Stake Fireside this coming Sunday.

We also got to help my Mom tie bows and cards on her packages for Festival of Trees!

Mckenzie Grandma and Mom at work.

Neighborhood Christmas Party! We came three hours early and helped set up for the party Our good friends Kallie and Jordan were there! Kallie sang a beautiful solo for the program! GO KALLIE! :) And we met some new young marrieds in the ward too!

It has snow quite a bit recently! I love the back yard lights shining from under the snow looks so peaceful!

Speaking of SNOW!! Here was the snow pile outside our studio door. I just laughed luckily I had a windshield scrapper in my car so I could get to the shovel inside!

 AND ...

We got the Christmas decorations up!!! We have a little apartment but it's still fun to decorate! 

 MORE snow pictures! I just can't believe how blue the sky gets! It has been EXTREMELY cold recently because it has dumped snow and then cleared out and been about 5 degrees in the middle of the day! Craziness!

I also got to film a Vlog (Video blog) with a friend of mine from down the street! She is the best! It's been so great to get to know her better here is the video!!

Until next week!!

XOXO

From the Lambournes!

Lambourne Loop: Thanksgiving, Cook's Sealing, Sports

Thanksgiving was this week and it was amazing! Normal Sunday dinner folks were there as well and my sister Allora and her friend Isaiah who were back from college! The food was AMAZING! And we all went around and said something we were thankful for.  I chose The Savior and his infinite love.  Without Christ to help comfort me, guide me, and teach me I don't know where I'd be.  And Danny said he was thankful for "the family and his little wife" :) That made my day!

Danny also got to go golfing with his brothers this week! HOW FUN! He even hit a car off the course! He also went to the Jazz game with grandpa on Friday.

I started listening to Christmas music! This was one of the CD's we played all the time when I was a kid totally got me in the Christmas spirit!

Here's a picture of our fire place decorations for Christmas.  Still haven't finished decorating but I have started!

We also had the amazing privilege to go the Cook's Sealing this weekend! It was amazing so glad we got to attend! And Riot sure knew his name when the sealer said it! ;)

Riot ended up coming over to play with us for a bit after the sealing while Mom and Dad went to dinner with family.  I had attempted to calm him down telling him he could come to my house after, thinking he would forget by the time everything was said and done... but man he sure didn't.  But it was super fun to have the little guy over!

Rearranging decorations! :)

Grandma giving Riot some M&M's as a treat for being so good!

He's got his bag and is all ready to go home! Though he wasn't all the excited about leaving!

Definitely a fun week! I'm so excited for this time of year! :D And I can't wait to see some of my girls this week!!!

Lambourne Loop: Catching Fire, John Legend Concert, Nationals

This week was a fun week!! My little sister Allora was a Nationals for Volleyball in Casper, WY.  The team did super well! It was my sisters last time playing with her team and I know that she will miss them! She has put so much heart into her game and I can't wait to see what she does next!

Danny and I got to go to a JOHN LEGEND concert!! It was AMAZING! He is seriously my favorite! I have so many memories with his music and it was such an honor to see him live!

Beautiful stage! We had perfect seats! They were amazing!!

Danny and I also did dinner at Red Robin and saw Catching Fire! LOOOVED it! I can't wait for the third one I loved the book! Here is us at the theatre! Danny looking... confused...

 

It's officially hot coco season!! :D I LOVE it!! 

UPDATE: Lambourne Loop: New studio

I was doing so well, weekly blogging for so long... and things got tough and I stopped. How lame... I also get into this problem where there is so much to say that it just keeps building and I just get more and more overwhelmed and so I just don't write anything... so... I'm starting where we're at right now.


Danny is still in school for his masters degree in business. He recently scaled back on the number of credits he was taking for my sanity and his and seems to be feeling much better and having a little bit more time to do the things he enjoys!  He joined a basketball league team. Sorry if thats not exactly the correct term but it's a bunch of guys that live in our county and they all get together and play. It's been a lot of fun coming and filming the games and chatting with the other wives/girlfriends of the other players!


We've also moved into a much bigger studio for my Irish Dance classes which was a huge undertaking!! Danny has done a great job at managing all the logistics so that I could continue to focus on the dancing aspect of everything. Which has been a huge help! Here are the before and after photos of that!

    Before                                                                                         After

   

It's really coming together nicely! :)

On another note it has started to get cold here! First snow of the season!

So I'm going to try and jump back on the band wagon with my weekly Lambourne Loop!! :)

XOXO
