Christmas

We had a really nice Christmas. I am a slacker
and didn't get pictures of very much, but here
are some of Christmas Eve and Christmas morning!
The boys are opening their Christmas P.J.'s!

This is Camren's 1st Christmas. He's not sure what

to think!

Brogan was so excited that Santa remembered
he wanted Bakugan's! They are all the rage at
his school!

Gavin loved his Scooby-doo action figurines!

Mommy had fun making these plates at our
ward's craft fair!

Here is Seth looking all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed!

I can't figure out why Gavin is making this face
because he was so excited to get this game!

Camren is giving his sock monkey a big squeeze!
How cute!

Rub-a-dub-dub three men in a tub......3 boys taking
a Christmas morning bubble bath! Where did
the bubbles go???? They are almost nonexistant!
Don't look too close!

We spent half of Christmas day and that weekend

at Valerie's house (my sister-in-law). We had a great
time. All of Seth's family was able to make it. There
was good food and great company. Thanks Val and everyone
for making it a wonderful Christmas!

Gavin's Mickey Mouse Birthday Party!

Here is my birthday boy who just turned 3!
I can't believe how fast it's gone by. My kids
grow way too fast! Gavin wanted a Mickey
Mouse Birthday. He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!
Especially the Choo-Choo Express episode!

I love this picture!

I wasn't sure if I would have time or even be able to
create a Mickey Choo-choo Express Cake(even though
I really wanted to make an attempt) so, we just ordered
this one from Walmart! We shared with some aunts,
uncles, cousins and grandparents who live close by.

I sure love this little guy. He is definately smart for a 3 year old.
He keeps me on my toes and always laughing
(well and sometimes screaming haha)!

Gingerbread Houses

We had fun getting ready for Christmas! Putting up
the decorations, doing our "count the days til Christmas"
Christmas bags, shopping, and.....gingerbread houses.
Brogan and Gavin were so excited to decorate
their own little gingerbread house. I think they
were even more excited to eat the little candies.

Here I am assembling the houses. It was quite
a project!

Brogan's is the right and Gavin's is the left!

Aunt Tressie joined us in the fun!

Raisins On Your Face

It is funny how kids perceive things! Brogan said something quite funny about a month ago. I had to write it down so when I had time I could post it on the blog. Brogan had found a medal that Seth was just awarded by his boss and asked if he could have it. Seth said, "When I get old, you can have it buddy." Then Brogan got excited and said, "Yeah, dad, when you get old and get raisins on your face I can have it." I don't know if you will find it as funny as we did at the time, but that guy sure cracks me up from time tot time!

Play Group

So we joined another play group. We go to a
play group that meets twice a month with our
church friends, and then we go to this one with school
friends that usually meets once a week and we just
pick and choose the ones we can make it to. These
pictures are when we went to the fire staion. It was
really neat and the kids loved it. It was very informative
too, I learned a lot.

The kids also got to get inside an ambulance
and talk to one of the paramedics.

Brogan was so excited to climb in the fire truck.
Gavin was excited until it came down to it, then
he got all shy and wouldn't get in.
