CHRISTMAS DAY.....

We had such a great Christmas this year. Hazen is finally old enough to know what is going on. He came walking down the hall and saw his train table and gasped, then took off running to it. It was so cute. Ethan absolutely loved his presents as well... to be young again ha ha...later in the day we went up to my mom's house and ate and played games with everyone, it was so fun!! I can't even believe it has already come and gone. Where did this year go??

Christmas Eve....

On Christmas Eve we went to my mom's house and had our annual party. We did the Nativity, the kids always love that, especially Mack and Kado :) We did white elephants also.. and just enjoyed hanging out together :) My Grandpa and Uncle Jeff and his kids came too, so it was alot of fun!
A few of the hot women in our family ha ha
...and some of the hot men! :)

WHEN I LEAVE MY KIDS WITH TAIYA AND CAM!!! ha ha







I love all these pics, they are hilarious!! I think they are imitating Tai and Cam's poses :) I will have to post the breakdancing video later!! ha ha Thanks guys for babysitting! Love ya :)

Some recent fun...

Ethan has been begging me for weeks to make a Ginger Bread house, so I finally gave in and let them make one. Who knew it would be so hard to get the dang thing to stay together, if Taiya hadn't given me a helpful hint, it probably would have went out the window :)
For once Haze actually enjoyed putting the candy on instead of eating it, and Ethan absolutely loved making it...
Such posers... so cute.. love Hazen's face.. ha

The finished product..done almost all by them!!
Here is a pic of the boys the other day, all excited to go play in the snow...
and here they are after!
And last but not least I had to post this pic of Cinderella and my boys, she stopped by to visit!!
Ha ha love ya Tai!!

Busy Weekend continued...

The day after Thanksgiving all the girls in the family got together,(except Natalie she had to work, crappy) and had a craft day!! It was so much fun to get together and everyone's crafts turned out so cute!! Can't wait to do it again:)
It was also my brother Brooks' birthday on Friday. We all went to Firehouse to celebrate! He is such an amazing brother, and person in general :) He has always been such a great example to me. He is truly someone I look up to and admire. We love you lots Brooks :) Even if you are a Ute fan... ha ha
Saturday morning me and the boys, and Tai and Cam headed down to Salt Lake to have a late Thanksgiving dinner, well sort of, with my dad and Darlene. It was so fun to see them, and the kids had fun helping Grandma Darlene put up the Christmas Decorations!
Cute little turkeys...
Darlene.. yet another Ute fan :) and Dad bending over in the oven:)
