Christmas 09'

This year for Christmas Chris was lucky enough to get the whole week off so we enjoyed spending time with family! My brother came into town a couple days before so we got to spend a few days with him! On Christmas Eve we all went to Andrea and Danny's and had a shrimp boil for our Christmas Eve Dinner! I'll take that any day over ham or turkey! Christmas morning we opened up and presents and the kids of course loved it and got REALLY spoiled! It was funny tho because Davis would open up pj's or an outfit and be like "I didn't want this!".

After opening all our gifts we all went to Nadja and Nathan's for our traditional German Pancakes and bacon! We had an Awesome Christmas, but are glad it's over with!

Popo Motorcycle!

A couple weeks ago Chris worked overtime at the Las Vegas Marathon. His regular shift was from 2 pm- 12 am then his overtime started at 3 am- 10 am. With us not living in Vegas he just went and waisted the 3 hours at his station. So I knew he was going to be very tired and I made him promise me that if he was even a little too tired that I would come and get him. He decided that he was WAY too tired to drive home, so me and the kids hopped in the car and went and got him. The kids were really excited to see daddy's motorcycle because it had been a while since they had seen it!

We just had to take a picture of Kissy wearing Daddy's helmet because the last time he had a picture with it he was sitting in it! So crazy how much he's grown in the last 10 months!

Moved "white grandma" up to Ogden.

Chris' mom moved up to Ogden a few months back, but most of her stuff was still here in a storage shed so about 3 weeks ago we took a trailer full of her stuff and took it up to her. The kids always like to spend time up there with White Grandma and they can't wait to go back!

I just thought this picture of them sleeping was SSOO sweet!! They are such good little buddies!

Family Pictures

This year we went to JCP for our Christmas cards. The pictures turned out all right!

Enjoying the nice weather!

Back about a month ago before it got colder the kids loved to go play outside like all day!

Allie came into me from her room and said that she wanted to go outside and play and I told her as long as she had a coat and shoes on, she was ok to go outside. This is how I found her outside! I love my little Allie Nallie!!
And here's a picture of my Moose just because he's a stud!

Halloween... yes, from 2 months ago!

I have been really bad at keeping up on my blog lately, but with the New Year in like a day I thought that I better get caught up! If I even get a little bit behind I just kinda get overwhelmed and get further and further behind!

So.. for Halloween this year Chris had to work :( but on the day before Halloween Nadja and Nathan threw a party that was really fun! There was lots of good food and it was really fun for me to dress up because it had been years since I had! Davis, Allie and Kissy were all Pirates!! They were the cutest little pirates too! I was a witch (which is fitting some days!).

On Halloween night Davis was the Black Spiderman and my mom and I just took him and Allie to 3 houses and they were satisfied with the candy that they got!

9 months

Little Kissy is 9 months! I can't believe how fast time has flown. He is a good boy and LOVES to give kisses! He also thinks that his cousin Cam (who is 2 weeks younger, but looks at least 2 months younger) is his personal living toy! We love him so much and love his cute personality!



But since I have been such a blog slacker I will just give updates on his accomplishments and when he accomplished them!
