Merry Christmas!






















We have had such a great holiday!! Staying in Idaho was kind of new to us, we are usually in Florida but it was so great being home for the holidays. I still had two of my brothers here and a couple of cousins as well. We were able to have a super Family Home Evening with our family here in Idaho as well as our family in Utah. We played volleyball, ate yummy food, and sang Christmas songs. Santa brought the kids some awesome toys. He brought Peyton a bow, Brynn a doll, Landen a BB gun, and Mya a kitchen. The kids have spent most of the holidays playing with their toys. Our most favorite activity has been playing in all of the snow! We have gone sledding almost every day and if we do not go sledding, then Tyler has been pulling the kids around on a knee board behind the 4-wheeler. I actually enjoyed the snow because I had no obligations and was able to just spend time with my family being pretty lazy. We are all sad to start school again and have life and craziness begin.

Brynn's Gymnastics Performance












Brynn had a little end-of-the-year gymnastics performance. She did a great job. Her favorite event is the bars. She is actually really good at them. She is going to be quite the gymnast!

My baby is TWO!!!



















Ok so you know how some people love the newborn stage or the school-age stage? Everyone has a favorite space of time that they would just like to freeze and keep their kids the ages that they are currently in. Well this is my FAVORITE stage. Yes, the toddler stage. If I could freeze Mya at her age right now, I would be a very happy momma. She is just at such a fun age I hate to see her get older. Since I didn't even throw her a First birthday party, I thought I better step-it-up and have a second birthday party for her. Since I have so much family here now it was still low-key but we were surrounded by people who love little Mya. Mya also was able to have another birthday party at Grandma and Grandpa Silcock's with all of her cousins a little after her birthday, so she was one spoiled little girl. She received so many dolls I lost count, and she loves everyone of them. She was scared of her candles on the cake (Surprise, Surprise). But she loved opening her gifts. She was such a cute little two-year-old if I do say so myself! Love ya Mya baby!!!
