MERRY CHRISTMAS

CARNIVAL

The carnival came to Cedar City and we went - once on a double date with Kevo and the next day with our kids.

They both loved this ride and rode it 3 times!

We set Kevo up with my friend Sherry from China

All by herself!  Such a big girl.

GIRL'S WEEKEND

Kicked off with dinner at The Copper Onion downtown SLC - delish!

We did a favorite things exchange and got lots of goodies.

Day 2 started off right at Bijou Market.  So fun. 

My Bijou Market loot.

Lunch at tortilla.bar

Hanger steak tacos

Pork tacos

These two got to tag along.

 

Tea at the Grand America was lovely

Pedicures - Millie got one too.

Bambara salad

Too much fun for this girl.

Such a fun and needed girl's weekend!  Lots of eating, shopping and girl time.  Macy got to hang out with her daddy.

BLESSING

 

Despite losing Andy’s brother, Matt, we still blessed Millie on Sunday, December 30, 2012 at 9 AM in the Rock Church.  Millie was blessed by her father, Andy Funderburk.  Also in the circle were: Gary Funderburk, Doug Bingham, Kevin Yeager, Nate Parry, Colby Bingham, Roy Smith, Jeremy Marshall, Geoffrey Chesnut, and Kyle Ballard.  It was a special and emotional blessing.  Andy blessed Millie that she would be smart and healthy and come to know Christ and follow him.  It was such a special day to have close friends, all of my family (except Breck) and all of Andy’s family there.  Afterward, we had a brunch at our home.  It was tight but it was so nice to be together, surrounded by friends and family.  

Happy little Millie

You know it's an important day when you have Ecclairs from Dick's Market.

 

Macy's room was kid headquarters

My helpers in the kitchen.

Can I have this little helper, babysitter, sweetheart at my house every day?

Gary had left to go change.

But earlier in the day he was a big help!

 

My sister brought her instax and we had fun with it.
