CHRISTMAS DECORATING

Every year gets more and more fun to decorate for the holidays.  We wake up Friday morning and get started.  The kids know where things are supposed to be and make everything look so good.

 Axtan loves all the singing toys

THANKSGIVING

This year we were up in the air on where Thanksgiving was going to be held.  My mom really wanted to have it at her house, in her new kitchen, but the cabinets weren't done in time.  So she came over to our house and we made it together in my kitchen.  

 Paislee was a lot of fun to work with us.  She made our stuffing

 She then helped grandma with the rolls

Axtan's 1st Thanksgiving

SHOWER TIME

Axtan decided he was big enough to take a shower on his own.  I started the shower to get the water warm, took my dirty cloths to my closet and found this.  Maybe 30 seconds I was gone.  He didn't care that the water was in his face.  He sat there until he realized I was taking pictures and then with a huge smiled crawled over to me. 



DISNEYLAND VACATION

We took the kids to Disneyland this last week.  We left Wednesday night after Jordan got off work.  We played hard all day in Disney California Thursday.  Then woke up Friday and did it all over again Friday at Disneyland.  Rylan was big enough to go on every ride this time.  He was a little hesitant to do some of the bigger rides but had fun on them all.  He said his favorite was Splash Mountain.  Paislee did great Thursday, we rode The Little Mermaid 9 times.  She was in heaven.  Friday she was so tired that she was very grumpy.  She did get better as the day went on.  Axtan was a champ, we only napped once Thursday and here and there Friday.  Of course he was as happy as ever. This was a great week to go.  There were no lines and the decorations for Christmas were beautiful.  It was a great trip and we were luck to have Grandma Coache and Bob-o come with us.
