Here is some of the "other fun stuff".
Josh was playing in the cabinet
and got STUCK.
(And Mom just HAD to snap a picture before rescuing him)
Hee, hee!
And just a really cute pic of Joshwatching the first snow.
Amazing...
Football (tackle, of course),
played in falling snow.
Which, I'm told, is soooo totally way cooler than normal football.
Who knew?!?
Football... decorating Christmas trees....
It all goes hand in hand, doesn't it?
Josh wanted to go play in the snow."What do you mean, I have to wear all this stuff?
Nevermind, then..."
More fun stuff...
I have candy advents for the kids.
I tie a candy for each day onto them.
It seriously took me an hour to do all four kids' advents.
Josh pushed a chair up to them
and devoured his and 1/2 of Paige's before anyone noticed.
Pretty guilty face, I'd say...
Our kids had some unusual gifts this year.On the morning of the 22nd of December,
we woke them up at 4:45
and insisted that they open a present!
The boys opened BYU shirts.
They were going to get on the plane right away
and go to the BYU Bowl game with Dad!
Soooo confused... and sleepy...
And WAY super excited!
They saw Kathryn...
She is on the BYU Flag Team!
Very windy...And cold... In Vegas... :)
BONUS:
BYU won!!! :)
And Paige opened a gift with her own wallet in it.
?!?!?!?!
A day of shopping with mom!
With her own money to spend as she wished!
WOO HOO!!!!
We went to Target, the mall,
the movies (Princess and the Frog),
and ate at Outback.
(Is this MY present or Paige's?)
Trying on hats at Claire's.
I think I have a diva on my hands. :)
Paige's favorite part of the day?
"Spending time with you, Mom."
Ditto, Paige.
xoxoxo
And Christmas morning...
Not as early...(Yes!)
Josh had a HARD time waking up. :)
So fun...
These sweet kids are so patient.They've waited a loooong time to
FINALLY get DS's.
(I braved the Day After Thanksgiving Sale at Walmart. Scary.)
The boys can't seem to get their eyes to open.
It was a wonderful holiday season.Crazy busy at work...
But that's a good thing. Right?
We had a great breakfast celebration with the Bells.
Gotta love wearing pjs all day...
And we got to spend tons of time
with the Yarbrough clan,
which is always so fun!
My kids are in serious cousin/aunt/uncle withdrawal...
Happy, happy holidays!!!
