Well here is Christmas 2012 oops!!!

Well I think it would be safe to say that I am waayyyy behind on my beloved blog. So it is once again time to play blog catch up! Our Christmas was so much fun this year... Could be because last year wasn't such a happy time with Doug's job and all but this year made up for it! We started it off with of course Christmas Eve. Our first destination Aunt Kellee's! We had so much fun. My cousin Jacquelin and her little family were here from Omaha and I loved getting to visit with her and play with her cute baby Logan! Karston got a fun sword which like any little boy loves. However, it has had to be stored up on the fridge more then it has been played with. We are still learning we don't hit little brothers with it!
 Cute baby Logan! Love that grin behind the toys!
 Jayden was in heaven he got a FROG and couldn't have been happier. This baby LOVES frogs and let me tell you he loves on this frog like no other! He is starting to get a great collection of them.
 This is my cousin Mckayla. When she was little she was absolutely TERRIFIED of my dad. At my grandma's house her floor plan allows you to run in a circle or oval or whatever from the living room around to the kitchen back into the living room. If my dad was in the living room anywhere near where she was running she would either go as far to the wall as she could or stop and run the other way all together. If my dad was laying on the floor and we held her over top of him she would stiffen up like cement and scream. Needless to say she did NOT like Uncle Robert. Well when she was like 3 my dad drew her name for Christmas so they gave her a red turtle neck shirt with a picture of my dad on it. She took one look at that shirt and instantly threw it away. She hated it. Well my dad once again drew her name 13 years later and so he saw it only fitting to give her a new shirt she can now wear! It says on it " Favorite Uncle from Day 1!"
 We had my little sisters name. All the kids call her Nana (Nah-nah) so we got her this frame that she said she liked at Kohl's and put a pic of all her babies all 7 of em! Then we gave her some Doe for a new computer or whatever she needed for College. Isn't she just so dang cute! I love her!!!
 We got this yummy smores set which was Delicious. This must have been the thing to get this year cause lots of people gave them out!
 Cute Jacquelin and her family! Love them and miss them all!!!
 Look at those baby rolls yummmmmm!
 Brittany and Dave!
 Following this fun activity we went home and got our snow stuff on to play in the snow for awhile. It was soooo cold but lots of fun!
 Jayden just had fun exploring and enjoying not being inside for a change!
 Karston had lots of fun falling in the snow and making snow angels.

We are terrible. We have lived in Idaho Falls our entire lives and we sadly Don't own a sled. So Doug got creative and we went shovel sledding instead. It was so funny but the kids loved every minute of it!

 Karston biffed it but he got right back on and had more shovel sledding fun!
 They weren't ready to stop so they decided to pull each other. What good brothers!
 After playing in the snow for a while we went in, warmed up and made cookies for Santa!

 New "Cars" jammies. Hanging out in the kitchen all bundled up!
 We read the traditional Night Before Christmas story and the kids went to bed! Mom stayed up to clean the house for Santa Claus to come! My pretty Christmas Tree all bright and cheery!
 This is what Santa left for me the momma of the bunch.
 Santa didn't forget sweet KC dog! We love him so much can't wait to have a better yard so we can just go out and play with him!
 Santa brought Jayden his very own rocking chair. It has a red tractor on it. Santa also painted it so very nice.
Santa brought Karston his rocking chair when he was Jayden's age but he must have stolen it cause it was missing for a few days. Christmas morning it reappeared with a new look. Love it!
 Santa knows just what daddy loves. Velveeta Shells and cheese and Thin mints. So yummy!
 Karston's and Jayden's new ornament for this year. How cute are they! Love them!
 We know Christmas is here when our fun tree is all filled up!
 I made this reindeer. It turned out so cute. It is actually a puzzle so the kids can play with it and put it all together again. So fun!
 My cute babies all sound asleep. How could you not want to just munch on their faces all day and night. It is hard but I try to contain myself. I am the luckiest gal to have 3 handsome, sweet, loving boys!


 Christmas morning!!! Hopefully I am just the voice and not seen in this. Otherwise you all might have nightmares for the rest of you life.
Anyways Christmas was wonderful. We did have a great Christmas. We also went to my in-laws and for some reason I didn't take any pictures weird huh. But we truly appreciated everyone who made this holiday so much fun. We love our families so very much and are grateful for any and all moments when we are able to get together and create such happy fun memories. I am grateful for my Savior and the opportunity I have to celebrate his birth.
