Christmas











Christmas this year was a blast. On Christmas eve Maclain was so excited he couldn't go to sleep. They each had so much fun, all we did was play all day long. It was fun and relaxing to just stay at home.

Houses

This is Bridger with a finished House

Every year I try to find some kind of Christmas Gift project the kids can help me make. This year it was fun wintery houses for all of our grandmas. Alex had to fly one night, so I let the kids stay up and we did our project. At first I was thinking I might be alittle crazy for undertaking this on my own, because they were fast, I could hardly keep them suplied with paint.
For being 2 I was very impressed with how well Rilynn painted.

Yes it was a very messy project, but very sucessful.


Maclain was maticullous with his paint. He had to have it perfect. He is a great artist.



December brought us lots of family fun. Maclain was a Beaver in his class Christmas play. The beaver's were the best part. They think the Christmas trees are for them because the people know their teeth get so soar from chewing wood, and they light them up so the beavers can find them. Natures most beautiful sight is a Beaver dam made with blinking lights.
December also brought us Bridger's Birthday. He is finally 4!

We took a train ride into Temple square to see the lights. Alex's family all came with us. One big party on the train. It snowed on us the whole time, but we had so much fun.






It's Been awhile







Well the end of the year went by even faster than I thought the beginning did. I honestly don't know where the time has gone. We finally got a new family photo the end of Oct, and the first of Nov. Bridger cut Rilynn's hair. Yes I cried. Luckily my friend Melanie blended it well.
