Our Christmas vacation

Our Christmas vacation at a glance...

...playing a game of Memory with our Uncle,
...hair styling by Hailey,
...looking our finest. We have the best Uncle EVER!
...taking turns (it didn't last for long),
...making Christmas bark,
...playing with the guns,
...wanting an even bigger gun,
...preparing for and taking the Hunter's Safety Course,
...sharing the breathing treatments, visiting the Pediatricians office & Urgent Care,
...collecting up frequent flyer's miles at the Pharmacy,
...enjoying silly playtime,
...loosing our 1st tooth on Thanksgiving Day & our 2nd tooth on Christmas Day,
...learning to be brave,
...baking for our neighbors,
...assembling the neighbor's treats,
...enjoying our Christmas gifts,


...dressing up in crazy clothes,
...watching favorite holiday movies,
...going to the movie theatre to see Tangled twice,
...playing board games,
...stripping a dresser for the boys,
...tracking UPS orders,
...viewing the Christmas lights on El Margarita,
...cleaning, sorting & organizing the bedrooms & cupboards,
...giving a little T.L.C. to the animals,
...visiting Sky Zone in Roseville,
...making cookies with Grandma & Aunt Ashlie,
...making comic strips,
...playing the new Wii,
...napping and more napping,
...quad riding with cousins,
...target shooting with the neighbors,
...encouraging Kelden to walk,
...reading Christmas stories,
but mostly wiping snotty noses, rocking sick kids in the wee hours of the morning & cleaning up throw-up after coughing spells.

So nice to see your blog! You've made some changes and it is so pretty. When I saw the paint spinner gift the kids had, I got so excited and had to show Matt. I had one when I was a kid and LOVED IT! We used it well into the summer.
