TRAXXAS SLASH!!!!!!

Jared and JB......This is for you.

I wondered when Santa brought this gift who he was really getting it for.

There have been a few times when Joshua hasn't been home and Mike has snuck out with it. :)

Our home away from home!!

New Years Eve weekend, we spent at the lake. Uncle Richard, Aunt Joni, Cameron and Carlie were also there. We had a wii party and played Luck of the Draw. It snowed all day on Friday, but that didn't stop the kids from sledding. We took them to the top of Logan Canyon. The kids have it waaaay to easy. I remember going sledding and having to walk back up the hill. Now they sled down and are picked up on the snowmobile to get back up the hill. Where is the excercise in that? Maybe thats why we stayed for 3 hours! The kids never got tired because they didn't have to walk up the hill.

On Saturday, the park was filled with fresh new snow so we pulled the kids around behind the 4-wheelers. Even Ty went sledding.....

and Grandma went along for the ride.

We sent Carter and Ty down the hill.....


We found a bigger hill the kids could trying snowboarding down.

A very FUN weekend!!

New Years Eve Bowling!!

Happy New Year!! XOXO
It has turned into a tradition to go bowling on New Years Eve with Jonathan and Daija and the Lintons. It was especially fun this year because mom and dad drove down....just to go bowling!!
After bowling we went to Apollo Burger and then to the Lintons for a fun filled evening of games.

Baby Blessing!

Just want to thank the Lintons for a delicious breakfast before Bridgers blessing.

The proud parents of Bridger!! :)

Nana and Bridger!
The spread that Vicki put on was GREAT!! THANKS!!
We were so blessed to have GG there also!

What a fantastic blessing you gave JB!

It was fun to be with you guys over the holidays!

We think Bridger is so cute!!

The Ballas Hough Band!!

Derek was in town doing DWTS and afterwards did a concert. The kids were very excited to go and it didn't start until 11:30 PM!! Oh Well! We had a fun time! It was just amazing to watch him shake his thing and have all the girls screaming and going crazy..... over my cousin. :) Josh thought the music was loud! :)
Here we are rocking out!!
Jonathan and Daija also rockin' out!

We met Dereks girlfriend...Shannon Elizabeth!

These videos are for you....Mom, Dad and Jared that couldn't be there!!

Waiting Anxiously!!!!

The one thing the kids look forward to in the winter, is Mike making them a sledding hill in the backyard. This is Carter watching from the window and can't wait to go and play. We gave the kids a snowboard for Christmas so they could practice on the hill. We were just amazed that Carter got right on and went for it. No Fear !!

Go Carter Go.....

This is Hailey trying it for the first time......

Winter Wonderland!

Mike spent a lot of time outside on Christmas! We were so happy to have a white Christmas, but it was a lot of work for Mike!
How are you suppose to snowblow when the snow is higher than the snowblower?

We took advantage of all the snow and went snowmobiling and sledding around the neighborhood!! This is Josh and his friend Nate!

Hailey and Carter on the snowmobile with Mike......

Christmas/Bday with the Heatons

Another Christmas/Birthday party celebration. Daija and my mom both had a birthday while they were here. That means double the presents! FUN!! You can't have a birthday w/o Chocolate Eclaire Cake!!! One of our favorites!!

Lexi and Carter racing on his new race track from Nana and Papa!

Opening gifts.....

Daija and Mike playing Guitar Hero.

This was our first time meeting Bridger! Of course, all the kids had to hold him. He's so adorable!

The holidays come and went so fast. We love getting together with family.

We hope your holidays were filled with love, family, health and happiness.

Christmas Day

Then Christmas....On Christmas Eve we make sure to put out cookies and eggnog for Santa and of course, we cannot forget the reindeers.

Then we get to open a present!! Of course it is tradition to get new "PJ's" then we had hot chocolate and watched "The Forgotten Carols."

On Christmas morning Mike's parents came over for "brunch." When we called to say that we would understand if they couldn't make it because of the snow, they said, "What snow? It's not snowing here." I think it was pretty much just over Riverton.

Santa brought Cater a hummer r/c truck.

Santa brought Joshua a traxxas/slash. I'll post crazy pictures of him driving it soon.

and Santa brought Hailey a Cricut machine. What?? She had no idea what it was, but she has been very busy making cards, bookmarks, invitations and a poster for school. I've also got her decorating my house with it.

and the final project......
