Christmas

Well i just have to say that i am the happiest woman alive!!!  I have the best family, husband and kids that anyone could ever ask for.  We had a tough year finacially and the kids didnt get much for christmas but they were so happy with what they got.  They are so fun to watch on christmas morning.  They woke us up at 6 this year which is a first in our house.  We usually just get up whenever they wake up.  This was Madisons first year that she could acutally watch her sisters and see what was going on.  So she opened a few presents and then seen that Kenedi had found candy in her stocking (Madison is a candy freak)  and then she was done with presents she was on the hunt for candy.  Then she didnt want to open her presents she wanted mine.  We had a good day and enjoyed being home with our kids all day.  Gerald has worked the last 2 christmas's so it was good to have him home with us.  We love you daddy!!!

We had fun going to Gerald's mom's party and my mom's.  The kids enjoy going and playing with their cousins.  We are very thankful for my parents Gerald's mom and Milo and his brother and sisters for all the food storage that was given to us.  We never expected it and it was really awesome and thoughtful we are very grateful for our families and want to thank everyone for everything and for all the help that you have given to our family through out the year.  We wouldnt have made it through the year if it wasnt for our families.    Thank you everyone!!!

Janica

I don't get on this much, for the most part it's Janica's page; But she's dedicated something on here to all of us. So most of you know how she feels about her family but little about how we feel about her. Janica is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me and is the best mother I think any child could ask for. She is the most caring, giving and unselfish person I know. She often goes out of her way or goes without to make sure everybody is happy. She is the world to our daughters and to me and we would surely be lost without her. I hope she knows just how much we all love her.

P.S. I'm glad I was able to guess your password to make this post possible!

Rock Creek Lights

We try every year to make it up to the lights at rock creek because its so pretty. Every year there is something new and the kids just love it. They also have a camel that they get to feed carrots to. I never realized how huge they are until i actually saw it for the first time. Its so funny to watch the kids feed it cause it sticks its tongue out and kinda wraps it around their fingers to grab it. The pictures didn't really turn out very good but i wanted to share some that we did get that weren't to bad.

BUILD A BEAR

My mom, my sister and I took Kenedi to build a bear for her birthday and boy was it fun. Kenedi or I had never been there so it was a new experience for both of us. We never told her about it so it was a surprise and i don't think she quit knew what to think. She picked out 2 moose's, a boy one and a girl one. The boy one she named Badger and the girl one is named Holly. She had so much fun but there was lots of decisions to be made.

To many things to choose from.

Getting them stuffed.Rubbing the heart on her knee so her moose's can run fast.

Rubbing it on her nose so they can smell good.
Rubbing it on her funny bone so that they can be funny.
Giving them bath's.
The finished product and a very proud little girl.

We had a very fun day and i want to thank my mom and Hailey for taking her to do this and spending the day with us we had so much fun.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENEDI

My little girl is now 5.  She has grown up so much that it makes me sad.  I still remember the day she was born.  So little and loveable.  Well she wasnt really little 9Lbs 13 oz.  But she was still a little bundle of joy.  Now she is always on the go and most of the time to busy for mom.  Every once in a while she needs some loves but not like she used to.  She is learning to be very sassy but i guess maybe its a girl thing.  But she still to young to be, shes my baby girl.  She had so much fun at her party and got everything she wanted and then some.  Now i dont know what to get her for christmas.Here is her cake that they spelled her name wrong on.  I was so mad but she said it was ok because she really liked the cake and we didnt really have time to order a new one or have it fixed.  We also called her birthday into the  radio station and she won the Dairy Queen ice cream cake.  

We got this game at the dollar store.  It was called pin the tiara on the princess.  It was cute to watch them.  It was a very hectic evening with all her friends there but i think that she had alot of fun.  Thanks everyone for all the wonderful gifts and for being a part of her 5th birthday!!
