Hey it is so sad, but relieving to have Christmas over. I love it!! We had so much fun. We got to stay home and do our own thing, it was awesome.
Christmas eve we opened our christmas pj's and a movie. We watched it till they fall asleep. Then I do something special for Jon, this year I put my Massage Therapy experience back to work. He got a full body massage. Jealous!!! I had to wake him up so Santa could come visit. Then we finally got some sleep.
We got up around 7:30, and laid in our bed till all the kids were awake. We then went and let the kids open presents. At our house Santa theme wraps so Abby's presents were all wrapped in Tinkerbell, and Colton's were wrapped in Spiderman, and Miley had all kinds of cute wrapping. It helps Santa keep track of what he is wrapping. The kids love it, and cause only Abby can read names.
We then get ready for the day, and hit my mom's for a big Christmas breakfast. Hang out see what everyon got, then we go to Jon's parent's for the big Dinner. So pretty much Christmas is a huge day of eating!!! It is a fun filled day. I love Christmas, I really love the family thing it is awesome. I hope everyone had a wonderful day!!
Feel free to share your Christmas traditions I love to hear them, and I may use them.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Catch Up Day!

So I was going through my purse, and I found 3 rolls of film. So now I can catch you up on some things we have done. Don't worry I am asking Santa for a new digital camera it is on the Christmas list!!
We have been enjoying the Holiday's. I love this time of year. The snow the food, and lots time with friends and family. I also love the spirit that surrounds us at this time everyone is so kind, and always willing to help you out.
I am so blessed to be surrounded by such good friends, and family. My husband recently got laid off, and I was just a little overwhelmed with winter coming and the Holiday's. My neighbors and family put their arms around us, and helped us with everything that we needed. Within 3 weeks my husband was back to work. I just love what the spirit does for each of us.
So here is what our family has been up to....


Abby is in her last year of preschool,and loves it. Colton thinks he needs to be going now so every morning he gets ready just like Abby, and gets his back pack just like Abby. He can't wait till next year when he gets to go.



This is my Chub Chub. My mom made the comment that she looks like the fat people on Wall-e. I love the rolls!!! She is growing so much. We are still trying to get her to roll over, but I think it might be a little hard with a belly like budda!!

This Fall we had to plow our field Colton and Jon had so much fun!! I had to take lunch out to them, they didn't want to get off the tractor!!



I finally put Miley in her crib, and Abby thinks she has to be with her while she sleeps. The girls are in their own room.








We also blessed Miley this was awesome. All my family came and all Jon's family came. We were surprised we were not expecting everyone to show. We had 30 people show up. It was so much fun. Miley looked Fabulous in her white dress!!

This year Jon got a mini deer!! I loved it!! He only had the opening day to hunt, and he shot the first thing that moved!! He had so much fun!!

Colton didn't dare touch he just sat and wached.

My kids love to pull silly faces everytime the camera comes out!! I think it is cute no one else does that takes our picture. That is probably why I have not got a family picture yet!!

Jon was so excited to have our own house to put lights on we started putting lights up at the first of November.






This Blanket was made with love from my sister Emily for Miley




















Abby is really into the pretend mom thing lately. She baths, dresses, and even buckles it in the carseat in the car.








This is my favorite of Miley she is so innocent, and precious. My kids can't leave her alone. They love her. I love them they are my world. I love being a mom it is the greatest gift ever!!!!!
