Decorating the Christmas Tree

These were all Landen's ornaments. He just would stick them all in group towards the back of the tree. It was so funny!

This was Landen's favorite ornament

Monday night we decorated our Christmas tree. We didn't have time this year to go and cut one, so we bought one in town. I have to put our trees up as soon after Thanksgiving as possible because we leave to go to Florida and we want to enjoy it as long as we can. I didn't get a final shot of the tree, but I love it! It is definitely one of our prettier trees. And I love the smell of pine in my house!

Grant's Blessing!

Uncle Glade stood in for my dad in the three generation picture

Grant had his blessing on Sunday in Pocatello. Mark gave him a great blessing and he was just so darn cute in his little outfit! We enjoyed a great lunch afterwards and headed home!

Thanksgiving

I didn't get any pictures of Thanksgiving day. I think that I am wanting to boycott my camera for awhile. But we had such a great Thanksgiving. We went over to Tyler's parents and had some yummy food. Tyler fried a turkey (his first time) and it was AMAZING! And all of Tyler's siblings were all there and my mom was there too. It was a fun day. That whole weekend we were blessed to have family in town. Mark, Savanna, and baby Grant all came a stayed with us, my mom was here for ten days, and Savanna's family all hung out at the house too. Uncle Dave brought his guitar and played Christmas and primary songs for the kids. On Black Friday me, my mom, Kristen, and Uncle Dave all woke up at 2:30 AM!!! and went to Walmart to hit the sales. I was so tired but I just love it! And then later we all went to Twin and shopped some more. I got a lot of my Christmas shopping done, which is a great feeling. Saturday we made beaded watches while the guys hunted and Sunday we had baby Grant's blessing! I felt when all was said and done, I needed a rest from the holiday!

Brynn's First Dance Performance

Brynn and Kylie Jo

Brynn had her first dance performance on Tuesday at the Warren House. This was extra special because Cincy and A. Savanna and cousin Grant all came to watch. Brynn did fantastic! She performed every dance move and watched her teacher and did great. They all looked so cute in their christmas pajamas!

Happy Seven Years!

(Thanks for the picture, Kenna!)

Just wanted to wish my hubby a Happy Seven years today!

Loosing Teeth

Peyton has been so impatient about loosing his teeth. He says that everyone in his class has already lost a tooth and he was feeling left out I guess. He has been really excited since one of his bottom teeth has been loose. Everyday he would wiggle it a little until it hurt, just because he wanted it to come out. Yesterday it was really loose and after Sarah bribbed him with a quarter for everytime he lets her wiggle it, it finally came out after a coupld of "wiggles." He was very excited and 50 cents richer. That night he kept asking if it was time for bed yet, from about six o'clock on. I finally let him go to bed at eight. He was proud of his dollar when he woke up and Tyler and I told him we only got a quarter for our teeth when we were younger. He said that he must of gotten a dollar because his tooth still had a little blood in it. I guess he's probably right :)

More Halloween Pics

Since I missed Halloween with my kiddos my hubby took some pictures of them for me. And here they are!

On Wednesday, Peyton's school had a Halloween parade for all the kids. The parents were invited to come and watch too. They even invited the families to come and eat lunch with their school kids. Brynn, Landen, and I went and ate in the lunchroom with Peyton and then I helped Peyton put on his costume and we all waited for Peyton to come through. I decided to dress Brynn and Landen up too, since I was going to miss Halloween with them, because of State Volleyball, which I was totally bummed about missing. Anyways, I took some pictures of the kiddos in their costumes and we enjoyed the day together with Peyton.
