Winthrop Wonderland!

1.24.2013

 Christmas this year was a blast! We traveled to my home-town in Washington. It's the cutest little village you could live in! But don't worry, before we left we found a nice looking christmas tree that smells amazing and put it up! I love *real* trees and the Christmas spirit they bring.
 In Winthrop there were about 20 people at my parents house! It was a lot of lovey, cuddly, huggie people around and Spencer did great! :) Growing up with 7 girls in your family, you are bound to have NO boundries and that is exactly what you will find in the Bradshaw home!
 Sledding with the fam!










 I love my dad's version of sledding!
 Basketball this year was a blast since we had enough people for a 5 on 5 game! Yes... we even had subs. That is one great thing about having a big family!
 Mom and Dad were kind enough to watch all the little kiddos while we played!
 Christmas morning. The boys got some sweet masks so everyone had to try them on.
 Dad's famous Christmas morning omlets! YUM!!!
 Making cookies!
 The boys and their Brooks Brothers shirts.. this pic reminds me of the 90's because the shirts kind of look like they are the levi shirts people used to wear. :)
 Christmas dinner.. Parks was so kind to pass around the dessert!


 Mike and Megan have a tradition of cookie the BEST cookies ever! They have mad baking skills!
 playing with the i-pad with an audience!

 I love this little man! He is such a cuttie!

 Morning runs! :) good times in 10 degree weather !

We had such a great time in Washington. It was fun to be there with my family! I love the snow and Christmas feeling of just being home. My family is so fun with events happening daily! We went caroling one night which is a fun Christmas tradition as well. We also shot clay pigeons our last day there and got some good practice for when Spence buys a gun!:)

B got married!!

1.02.2013

 Announcing Mr. and Mrs. Stewart! Bailey and Justin were married on the 17th of December and it was so fun to be there with them! They were married in the Salt Lake Temple and had a reception that night at The Old Meetinghouse in Holladay. It was a bit chilly and windy that day, but nothing that we couldn't handle. Bailey and Justin were good sports about it and brough their happy, smiling faces (I mean who wouldn't on their wedding day?)
 Spence went up and gave B a hug! So precious!
 
 The beautiful bride!
 
 Bridesmaids
 
 My cute parents! It was their anniversary the same day!
 
 Pretty wedding cake.. love the pinecones.
 
  The WHOLE fam damily!
 
A little cake anyone?
 
 Dancing it up! Who doesn't love a good dance?
 
Leaving for the night!
 
Then.. we traveled to our hometown Winthrop, Washington and had another reception there. We turned our church into a real beaut! It didn't even look like a church anymore.. loved Bailey's colors and decorations she chose.
 My mom made this old window pane with pictures for the happy couple!

We are so excited for Bailey and Justin. I am glad they are so close to us and we can hang out whenever we want to! Welcome to the fam J-dawg!
