Photo Shoot

My sister in law, Sara is a film major at BYU and she also does beautiful photography so I asked her to take some pictures of the kids while she was here. They came out so great!

She was freezing her little hands off

My favorite! So stinking cute!

Christmas!!!

Christmas morning finally!!! We've all been so excited this year because we got to start the morning off at home. Addison was wowed coming down the stairs with all of the new presents under the tree. She ran right over and dumped out her stocking. We all had a great morning and then went to my parents house for dinner and to hang out with my brothers that are in town for a few more days. We all had a great day!!

Letters

Addison and I have been practicing letters lately and she ran into my room this morning to show me this. She was so excited and wanted to surprise me. She is so cute!

Christmas Time

We're doing all sorts of Christmas stuff lately! My mom watched the kids on Monday so I could go to work for the day and they made a gingerbread house together. It came out so cute!

Then my dad had his office party last night and Santa was there. This was the first year Addison actually wanted to see him. She didn't run away screaming finally. Definitely progress!

He must be thinking hard about what he wants for Christmas. He is so cute!!

Christmas Hayride

We went to do a Christmas hayride again this year since we had such a good time last year. It was freezing cold but a lot of fun. Addison was singing along to all the songs and especially loved the snow in Santa's workshop. It definitely got us in the holiday frame of mind!

Family Fun Day

We decided to spend the day together and go bowling and play arcade games. We took Addison bowling about a year ago and she loved it. We haven't been back since but she liked it even more. I got my highest score ever...a 102 : ) Yeah, I stink but it's still fun anyway. Phillip and I played Deal or No Deal and won over 200 tickets. It bought us about 8 packs of fruit snacks - Addison got to pick and for some reason all she wanted was fruit snacks. Weirdo.
