Mothers day

This mothers day I wanted to do nothing and it almost happened! 

The girls made me all kinds of notes and cards. 

It was a wonderful day, one of the best! 

Graces made her card, they had to cut out things from magazines. She cut out an eagle and said I have a eagle eye!!!  She is so crazy!!!

Easter Morning

The Easter bunny went crazy and hide so many eggs outside!!
I made them get ready for the day and eat breakfast before they could go out and start eating chocolate till they got sick!!

Coloring Easter Eggs

This year we got crazy with the Easter eggs!
The girls love to do crafts and so coloring eggs was no different.
We were out there for hours!

Leavitt Party

Since Nancy and Penn joined the rest of the family and moved away, we go up the Saturday after Christmas for the Leavitt party!
Its usually the only time we go to the cold in the winter, so we like to try and play in the snow! This year we just played in the back yard and had so much fun!!
It wasnt freezing, it was just really cold! If you stood in the sun, it wasn't horrible!!

We had alot of fun up there with family!
We opened presents, talked, watch the girls run around in their cute frozen capes, and had our annual ginger bread house competition!
Kyle and I won last year, and we got 2nd this year, we are pretty talented!!
It is always fun when we are all together, it doesn't happen often, but when it does we enjoy it!

Christmas

This Christmas was I think my favorite one so far!
We didnt do a dang thing and it was perfect!

The girls got up a little after 6, and we could hear them in there very excited!
They dumped their stockings out and were so excited about every little thing!
Santa was good to them this year,
Grace got a (knock off) American girl doll, and a CD player!
Addison got her cowgirl stuff, but not a pony, maybe next year!
Alaynna got her frozen dress and high heels!
Then Santa left them a trampoline!

Grace summed up the day, (and also made me feel like we are doing something right) and said, "This was the best Christmas, we got the 1 thing we wanted and more things we love!"

We didnt change out of PJ's till lunch,
we watched movies all day,
played games,
and watched the girls have fun!
I defiantly feel like I was not my normal Grinchy self this year, I watched the hallmark channel, had Christmas music on everyday, and had decorations stuffed in every corner of this little home!

But I did have most of the decorations down the day after Christmas!!!
