This is the SWEET reason the bottom of our Christmas tree isn't decorated!

Courtney is spending the night with us tonight because her Mommy and Daddy has a work Christmas party to go to. This is her Christmas dress, and it fits! No more mini skirts. (In the picture where Courtney is sticking her tongue out she asked me if I could fix that picture and put her tongue back in her mouth! She is so funny!)

Happy Birthday to Jarrad! He turned 31 today and I even got to see him. He was on this side of town with his work so he came to see me, I love visiting with him. He is a great son and I am very proud of him. I have been a Mom for 31 years! Wow!! And I have loved every day of it, well, except a few of those teenage year days!

Courtney found Carlee's Christmas dress this morning. She loves to dress up in her cloths even though they are 9 month old clothes and Courtney wears a size 4. Carlee wore her dress to church yesterday, it was terrible, we all looked like we had white cat hair all over our cloths from her santa fur!

We went to our Stake Christmas Musical tonight. It was very good. We have a lot of great talent in our stake. My favorite was Mary's Lullaby, it was so sweet.

Bah Hum Bug!

My friend and I went to see The Christmas Carol lastnight at Hales theater in Gilbert. It was so good! I recommend it, but I think they are actually sold out for the rest of the season. We really enjoyed it, it was so much fun. Thats a good way to get in the Christmas spirit.

I love taking pictures but I especially like taking pictures at Christmas time.

Merry Christmas to Tommy!

My sister is getting a new piano so since Tommy loves to play the piano she gave her piano to him. He was one happy man! While he was gone today we moved it in so it would be a surprise when he got home.

Courtney came over today to help me decorate the Christmas tree. This is the ornament we bought when she was 4 months old for her first Christmas. She didn't last long helping me decorate the tree because she saw the Fisher Price nativity which she loves to play with. She put two nativitys together and said, "these two Jesus's are playing together because they are friends" Isn't that sweet! Our tree looks terrible in this picture, but actually it is cute. It looks like we have a rectangle tree!

You didn't know that I was in such good shape did you?!!!

Carlee is getting more teeth

Some Sunday afternoon fun!

Lauren turned 1 today, Happy Birthday Lauren! We love you baby girl!!

Carlee is all ready for Christmas!

I had to add this picture, it reminds me of a missionary we use to have here years ago,that boy could cross his legs at least two times!
