Christmas!

We were so excited about Christmas that we forgot to take pics with the still camera. Sorry no pics to post but don't worry, we have lots of video! We had a wonderful Christmas this year. We spent both Christmas Eve and Christmas day with Jeremy's family. I love the Christmas Eve tradition they have of honoring Jesus Christ and his birth. This year I volunteered to do the program. My relief society did an awesome Christmas party this year so I pretty much just repeated the program they put together. It was so wonderful to feel the Christmas spirit!

My friend and I made the kids pajamas this year. They all looked so cute in them. Kinley had Dora with butterflies and the boys had what else, but Dallas Cowboys pj's. Super cute! Kinley asked Santa for a scooter this year. She was so disappointed when she walked in Christmas morning and did not see a scooter. She was very relieved when she opened the box that had been hiding her scooter!

The kids are at such a fun age! Kinley got so excited about everything she opened and so did Ty!! Travis is very respectful and thanked us for everything we got him. All the kids got lots of stuff they asked for so it was fun for all of us!

Jeremy is a wonderful husband! He totally hooked me up like he always does. He gave me two wonderful gifts this year among the others. He did the 12 days of Christmas for me....everyday he would write down a special, thoughtful reason why he loves me!!! He also took the kids to Brushfire and made me an awesome platter with all their hand prints on it! Priceless!!

Christmas Projects

The kids and I have been having lots of fun with Christmas projects this year! McKinley and her best friend, Aaliyah, had a great time last sunday making snowmen! It has been so fun to enjoy the season with my kids this year! They are getting old enough to have fun with it! We also made a snow flake project, which was a donation from a friend, and poinsettias from the library. Thanks Karen and Cyndi for providing us with fun projects to enjoy!!

Tis the season

I don't have a lot to blog about but it is the season and my last blog is not very uplifting. We are in the Christmas spirit at our house! The tree has been hunted and is now fulfilling it's Christmas wish. It is decorated beautifully and is filling our home with that wonderful Christmas tree smell! I love real trees!!

We also have a cute little table all decorated with Christmas nick nacks. For some strange reason my kids think they are toys. I cannot get them to leave them alone. It is a pain but they are so curious about them. It's so fun to have kids around at Christmas time!

Kinley has made it very well known that she wants a scooter this year. She sat on Santa's lap and said loud and clear that is what she wants. Now she says he is making it. She wonders what color it will be and if it will have Princesses or Tink on it! Too cute!

Before we know it Christmas will be here and gone. I am trying to enjoy every minute of it with my kids while they are little. Merry Christmas everyone!
