Christmas Day

Christmas Day was a crazy day. First we got up about 7 am to open presents at home. Then we were off to Trav's parents house to open presents and have breakfast with family and friends. After that we went to my moms for a little bit before going to Trav's grandparents for a party. Then we were back to my moms house to open presents with my sisters and brother. It gets pretty crazy but it works. We get to spend the day with everyone and I wouldn't have it any other way.Ky opening her piano with her Grammy
Austin (Trav's brother)... What a stud!

Christmas Morning

Christmas was so much fun this year with Kylee. She loved all of her presents and got so excited to open them. Everything she opened was her "favorite ever!"

We are always to fortunate on Christmas to get so much. I say every year that it is going to be a really small Christmas but we always end up with so much.
Kylee's present from Santa
This picture makes me laugh. Kylee looks like she is trying to show us how buff she is! Her double chin is bigger than mine!

She got a helmet for the 4 wheeler

Christmas Eve





First we went to my parents house and opened some presents there. Kylee got a snow globe from my mom which she loves. She always wants to play with my moms and turn on the music.










After my moms we went out to Grantsville with Travis's family. Kylee got some playdough from her great-grandparents and Austin, Chad and Ali opened it so they could play.
Every year we have our own manger scene while we read the story of Christ's birth. Kylee was an angel this year. We switch off every year for Christmas Eve with my family and Trav's. The last time we were there Kylee was our baby Jesus.

Making Pretty!


I got out of the shower yesterday and this is what I found. How could I get mad! She was so proud of herself, she loves to "make pretty". (that is what she calls putting makeup on for some reason) My only concern is why is she trying to draw a mustache?

We were at Trav's parents house last night and Kylee wanted her picture taken by the reindeer. I thought I would post it cause i think it's a cute picture. She is so much fun and I am so grateful to have her in my life. It is so much more complete with her here and I can't wait to have our little baby boy and have that much more joy in my life.

Shooting guns!

On Saturday we went shooting with Marlin, Chad and Ali. It was a lot of fun just messing around shooting balloons and clay pigeons. In the past we have gone out alot more but this year it didn't happen as much so I am glad we went. Tonya didn't want to go out in the cold so Ky stayed with her and Austin had to work but when we all get to go together we have a blast.

Thanksgiving Day

Our holidays get pretty crazy running around from house to house. First we went to Travis's grandparents house for dinner. Then we went to my parents house for dessert. After that we went to Trav's parents for games. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of the first two places but I did remember to take some while we were playing the game.
The kids had a lot of fun jumping off the bench into the pillows
