Decorating our Tree

One of my favorite things about Christmas is putting up the decorations.  The  boys start out excited, but then get bored.  They love to do the tree, but I always make us wait until everything else is finished and cleaned up.  Then it is time to do the tree!  For me it is the final touch and I love to be able to turn on the lights and enjoy!

Fun movie night!

When we returned home from Idaho, we were greeted with a wonderful surprise.  A movie night all set up and ready to go.  There were tickets, individual bowls of popcorn, blankets, candy.  Everything you need for a family movie night, all prepared by dad!  He is so thoughtful and fun.  It was a super fun surprise!

Trip to Idaho

When the boys went off track, I decided to take off!  The boys and I loaded up and went to Idaho to visit their cousins Justin and Max!  We had a great time.  The boys played and played and enjoyed all of the projects Aunt Janae had planned for them.  They have so much fun together.  It was nice for them to have unlimited cousin time!  (And I enjoyed the sister-in-law time as well!)

Our First Snowman of the Year!

The boys were very excited to wake up to a snow storm.  As soon as Nate got home from school, it was time to build a snowman!  They had a lot of fun playing in the snow.  McKay loved the snow.  Anytime there is snow on the ground he calls it "snowman".  He also loved to wear all off his snow gear.  Doesn't matter where we are going or how cold it is, he wants his boots, hat, and gloves!
