More December Happenings

Joshua had his honor choir concert.  

They did a great job and he looked like he was having so much fun!

We went to the Bass Pro Shop to see Santa and play with the toys. 

The kids loved the games and toys.

I loved these digger things as a kid.  I am glad they are coming back.  :)

The kids are always up for a picture. ha ha

Lincoln logs are always a hit.

I thought the picture turned out pretty good with Santa.  All three kids almost looking.  The kids who care about Santa anyway.  ;)

Dallin and I went out for donuts this past Friday and shopped for our angel tree gift.  He loves his donuts!

This baby always tries to coo and smile when it is time to go to sleep.  :)

Evan and Aaron hanging out at home.  

December!

We went to our city's Christmas tree lighting.  We are standing in front of ice sculptures here.

It so pretty once it is lit up and they play fun music.

My kids were excited about it!  

We didn't stay long, due to a long week , but had a great time. 

 Joshua turned 10!  I can't believe his is 10!  He is a great son!  We are so blessed to have him in our lives!  He is always willing to help his brothers or sister or others.   He loves to read.  Joshua's favorite school subjects are science and math.  He loves choir and enjoys meeting new people and trying new things.  He is growing up fast.  He is just like a mini Michael.  :)

Joshua asked for a quidditch cake.  This sis what I came up with.  ha ha  

After Joshua opened up presents Leah decided to use the left over wrapping paper to design herself a dress.  lol

Catching up with School

Joshua had his choir concert.  They sang some lovely songs.

Evan had his first dentist visit.  No cavities for all kids!  Yea!!!  Evan was really nervous, but did great!  He kept telling me his teeth weren't big enough for this yet.  ha ha

Dallin got Gold honor roll and Top Cat award.  Joshua got silver honor roll.  

Leah had her singing program as well.  She did great.  It was really cute to see her all dressed up.

She sang her songs than had a Thanksgiving feast afterwards.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We went to Arizona for Thanksgiving.  Michael's sister Nicole made us delicious food all week.  The kids loved all of her really awesome toys!  The kids loved playing with their cousins!  We had a great time!  My kids are asking when we get to see them again already.

We went to the air museum.  

They had a great time looking at planes!

Leah and Rachel had to do Nicole and I's hair.

We hung out and watched movies as well

We played at the park as well.  We met up with my brother and his family!  It was so great to see him.

It was so nice for my brother to drive down and visit with us.  It has been a couple of years since I have seen him.  He has a beautiful family!

Our phones welcomed us to Mexico while we were driving.  This is Mexico on the other side of the fence.  ha ha

Camping

We finally got to go camping!

We have been wanting to go for a long time, and the weather was perfect.

We met up with our friends from Oklahoma and my sister.

It was nice that it was cool enough for a fire.

We got a little hiking in.  It was fun!

Leah found a chair on the hike.

We love camping with friends and family!

Six Flags

Joshua wanted Six Flags for his Birthday,so he got to go on Raytheon day.

We invited our cousins and they all had a great time.

Raytheon day has very little lines,so it is fun.
