Christmas Day!

They must have been good, because Santa came.









Arcade Basketball!!
 Santa was up until 3 in the morning setting this thing up!




Christmas Cuties!


Fun on the Plasma cars.




Christmas Eve

We went out to my mom & dad's and had a prime rib dinner. Yumm-o!! Then the kids got to open their Christmas jammies from grandma & grandpa.


Catmull Christmas Party

One fun tradition we enjoy every year is the Catmull Christmas party! Lots of YUMMY food, and lots of laughs! Oh and Santa!


Brody's Turn!


Braiden's Turn

 Joslyn's Turn
 She didn't like santa.

Hudson's turn

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things...

Hudson's version:


1. My Daddy
2. My "bike game"
3. Wearing my goggles.

We were just hanging out one night and I looked over and saw Hudson, sitting on his daddy's lap clutching his "bike game" wearing those goggles.  He is such a funny boy, this describes him to a T so I had to snap a picture.

Birthday Time

On the 11th we had a friend party for Brody.  He basically planned the whole thing, he told me who he wanted to invite and what he wanted to do.  Bowling--fine with me! He had such a great time with all of his favorite little people.





One the 14th we celebrated his 6th birthday with pizza, cake and presents.





Brody you are a fun little boy! You are so smart, you are doing great in school! You love your family and playing sports.  The one thing you don't love is eating your dinner. We love you Brody-ody.

December

It has been a busy, busy, fun month. There have been Christmas parties, birthday parties, and school Christmas programs galore, along with shopping, baking, wrapping and creating sprinkled in here and there.

Nate gave me a kindle for my 30th birthday.........say wha???? 30???  Sad but true I am officially old.  : (
 anyway back to the kindle.  I LOVE IT!! He was very very sneaky about it so I was totally surprised, what a sweetie.



Next up Brody's birthday.

Snowy Days


Happy to see snow.


Yup-that's our dog in a nutshell...annoying!



We had an extra long Thanksgiving Break this year thanks to 2 snow days before the break and 1 after. It

was so bitter cold and windy that the kids didn't even get to play outside that much. I think

were all glad when school started back up on Tuesday. 

We had a great Thanksgiving with lots of eating and laying around. :)

Friday we went up to the mountains to find our tree:



This is Nate's favorite part.  (ha just kidding)

Look at Joslyn's new trick!!!

She is SO brave.

She is SO Stinkin' Cute!!!!

It totally helps that she loves the camera.

She knows how to get what she wants... What? She is only 11 months old!

She is a climber, she can climb all the way up the stairs but can't go back down. She also climbs out of the highchair.  I basically can't take my eyes off her.

She can stand up in the middle of the floor all by herself.

No steps yet, but I can tell they're not far off.

She loves to clap her hands and play pat-a-cake.

She has just discovered the, I drop it-you pick it up game.  This one will be a favorite for sure!

Gets into everything, she loves to empty my cupboards and drawers.

She gives the best loves, complete with pats on the back.
♥♥♥

We have a jam packed December ahead of us...here we GO!
