'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

We spent Christmas Eve at my Mom's and had a lot a fun - we had a game night, and Mom let the kids open presents before we went home.

Here's my sister Torey and Luke, and brother Ryan and his wife Cheron.

Sorry, Ashley - your eyes just looked really cool in this one! =)

Run, run, as fast as you can....

...you can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!

Becca turns 7

Becca celebrated her birthday at home with her family this year. We had cake, presents, and all the fun a girl can want!

Go Wonder Pets - YAY!!

Here's a random picture. Reese loves a show called the Wonder Pets. It's about a Guinea Pig, Duckling, and Turtle who save baby animals in every episode. This picture is dedicated to my creative, and loving big-sister of a daughter, Rebecca, who spent most of the morning that day making a "Fly-boat" for her baby sister. Becca, you are such a sweet, imaginative, loving little girl. Thank you for blessing my life by being you!

The Nativity at the Ward Christmas Party

(Becca's on the floor in the cow costume)
For those of you who don't know I'm the Primary Music leader in our ward - and I LOVE it! This has been the most fun calling! The kids are great - and I love music. So here we are at the ward Christmas Party. We sang "The Nativity Song". Tristan had a singing part and Becca was a cow.

Sorry Mom - this picture is too cute!

My Mom is NOT a fan of this picture - she's not a big fan of her grandchildren being on the roof! The kids love "helping" Daddy set up the Christmas lights, though - so what are we to do?

Christmas is Coming!

Here we are setting up the Christmas tree. Reese was not feeling the Christmas Spirit that night, as you can see.
