PAISLEE'S DANCE RECITAL

 I so love this little girl! Paislee has really enjoyed dancing and is becoming very good.  She lights up on the stage.

 

FAMILY GINGERBREAD HOUSES

 It has become a tradition to decorate gingerbread houses with my family every year.  The kids love it and the men really get into the competition! 

ALMOST CHRISTMAS SUNDAY

 We will be out of town for Christmas Sunday so I had the kids wear their Christmas cloths a week early!

I'm such a mean mom, I love this picture.  He was NOT going to wear his tie, but after about 10 minutes he forgot it was even on.

THE WARD CHRISTMAS PARTY

Jordan and I were called to chair our ward Christmas party.  The theme was "The Meaning of the Candy Cane". I wasn't able to take many pictures but I think the night was a success.   

REBEL

After 2 years of this cute guy, I decided it was time for him to go.  We have way to many animals and between them, my children and a husband that is never home it is just way to much for me to handle.  I was sad to see him go but the family that adopted him was so excited to have him.  

TIVOLI VILLAGE

I needed to go to Charming Charlies so I did a little wheeling and dealing and talked the boys into coming with me.  I had never been there on a Saturday morning, what a fun place.  They had a farmers market, local performers and a train for the kids to ride.  I think the boys loved it as much as I did. 

"i"

One of the few words Axtan is now saying is "i".  He loves to play on the i "iPad". I try to limit how much time he plays on it but every once in a while I will find him laying somewhere on daddy's "i"!

DECORATING THE CHRISTMAS TREE

We decorated the Christmas tree tonight. It is a lot of work but I love when it is all done.  The kids help for about 5 minutes and then the rest is on me.  It was Paislee's year for the star! 

 

 

 

STORY TIME

I couldn't find Paislee and after search the whole house I found her listening to the story my mom pre-recorded last Christmas.  I swear she listened to the story 30 times. 

MAKING HIS OWN LUNCH

Axtan is such a crazy boy.  I love him so much. This is what he chose for lunch today!

THANKSGIVING FEAST

Paislee's kindergarten class had a Thanksgiving Feast.  They served hot dogs and chips but the kids enjoyed it.
