February Fun in the Snow

It has snowed like crazy this year.  The kids love the snow and have built several snowmen already.  This guy is the latest!

 Calvin wants to help but after 5 minutes he is ready to come in side.  He is an energetic little guy who always wants to be apart of all the fun.

Aunt Holly, Calvin, and Sidney

lately this little guy thinks that he needs to be with mom when he falls asleep.  So we will put him to bed and when I am cleaning the kitchen he will grab his pillow and blanket and fall asleep on the floor.  Cute little guy!

January 2013 inside fun

This year we have gotten a lot of snow.  This obviously means some one is always sick and the house is always messy due to a 1 1/2 year old who is into everything.  We are looking forward to sunny days and playing in the yard, until then here we are stuck inside.

Trip to Vernal - December 2012

We always go to Vernal the weekend after Christmas.  This year it was really cold!  We had a great time with family

 We decided to spend some time in the snow and cold.  It was really cold!  We tried to go sledding and shooting at the same time but couldn't find a hill and shooting area that worked well together.

Christmas 2012

My cute little kiddo's were soo excited for Christmas to finally come.  The night before the big day we read from the bible and drank hot cocoa.  The kids got their pajamas and we hurried them off to bed hoping that they would fall fast asleep so that Santa could come.  Santa came and left lots of fun toys for them.

Santa has arrived

I love that the kids don't get up too early and that they are the first ones awake and I am not the one waking them up for presents.

Calvin got lots of trucks.  He loved them all!

Sid especially loved her strawberry shortcake house.  She played with it most the day.

When Hagen made his santa list he asked to for two main items: Lego Batman 2 and lots of Lego's.  I love that he is so easy!

 

Kaleigh is getting so big that it is really hard to find her what she wants at a descent price.  She really wanted Just Dance 4, but we extremely disappointed when she didn't get an Ipod.  We assured her that she should have enough saved up by her birthday to pay for half of her Ipod.

I love how well these two play!

December Adventures 2012

It has been really busy this month.  It also seems as if time has gone by so fast.  Below are some pix of the fun times we have had this past month.

Calvin with those squinty little eyes

This picture makes me laugh.  Calvin got in trouble for playing in something that he shouldn't have.  His eyes fills with tears the minute he heard the word no and ran to his big sister for comfort.  Cute Sid just holds him with a big smile.

My little calve was sick for most the month.  He started the month with a fever and cough, got better, then sick again and still to this day he has a icky green nose and has finally gotton over his cough.  He is having a hard time getting rid of it.  He didn't feel good so he is snuggling with Dad on the couch.

I love these pix!!  We attended the ward christmas party and during clean up the kiddos used the bottom of the trashcans as coasters.

 

Mid month we got a little snow.  Kaleigh and Hagen made an alien snowman.

My little Calvin fell asleep in the chair in my office while watching the kids play computer games.

Thanks Giving in Vernal- Nov. 2012

Wow, I just realized that I haven't updated the blog for a while.  This is our year to go to Vernal.  We ate lots of food, played wii games, and ventured into walmart for black friday shopping.
