Christmas

We had a great Christmas!! It was so nice to have Kesha, Nick, and Boston here!! Thank you for the wonderful time! We miss you already. The house was really decorated this year. It was nice to have the spirit all around. But it's really going to be a hastle to take it all down. :(


This year I got my Dad a North Carolina hoodie. He really loves UNC!! We always watch their games.

My Mom got him a North Carolina blanket. That way, when UNC plays, he can watch it in his chair while wearing his North Carolina hoodie under his new blanket. ;)


Showing Jordan (the Duke fan/traitor) his new blanket!!


Logan got a new remote control helicopter. Unfortunately, it was crashed later the same day. They weren't build very well. We hope to order the new parts soon.



As you can see, I got a new Dell laptop, and I LOVE IT!! And that's the reason I've actually been able to update my blog. But of course it's only for "school purposes."


Every year we always get Lizzy a gift. She loves tearing apart the wrapping paper. In fact, she tried to help Boston open a few of his gifts.

Oh my goodness, it was a blast to have this little monkey here this year. He was so cute!! The poor kid, all he wanted to do was open one or two presents and then play with those few, but between Grandma and Kesha, we had the presents rolling. He would open one, and Kesha would take that one away while Grandma would be handing him the next one to open. He was so funny. He wouldn't even have the wrapping paper off, before he'd say, "I'm so excited, I know what it is."





We had so much fun this Christmas season!! Thank you Nick and Kesha for bringing the little squirt! We all really enjoyed having all of you here this year. It was also nice to see Boston and Grayson "wrestle." We hope to see you again soon! Take care of that little belly! :) We can't wait for the new addition.
We hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!!

Updates continued...

We had a ton of humming birds at our house this year. At one time we thought there were 12-15 that would come to our house regularly. You can't see it very well, but this humming bird has a bright bright orange neck!


Grayson playing in the dirt while we were on a family picnic.

We took my DVD player to keep the boys entertained on the 45 minute drive. They were pretty in to it, as you can see.

My Mom is in the relief society in our ward, and during the summer they set up some "field trips" for any of the Moms who wanted to go. This was a picnic up in the mountains. We had some left over dry ice because the home made root beer spilled
before we had a chance to put the dry ice in, so we decided to dump in the lake to see what would happen, and here was the result...hopefully we didn't kill anything because there was some under brush that rose to the surface, so hopefully it didn't kill anything else...

This picture was taken at Lagoon.



This was a picnic/fishing trip. Sorry I didn't get any of the pictures of actual fishing, but as you can see, Mom and Logan had my camera.







These are just a few pictures of Girls Camp.


This is my ward. We had a great time at Girls Camp!!
