Christmas 2010

We were very blessed this Christmas. It has been a good month for us and we are grateful for our family, friends, and the reason we celebrate Christmas is the first place. Here are a few of the highlights:

December So Far...

Logan's preschool had a field trip to a candy factory. Emily, Colton, and I went along for fun. It was a neat tour with yummy free samples. No cameras are allowed inside so we snapped a shot out front with our hairnets on!
We had a surprise visit from Santa. He showed up at our house to check in on the kids to make sure they were being good. We are so lucky to know Santa personally!For family home evening, we put together a gingerbread house. The kids had a good time. The kit was left over from last year so we had to threaten the kids not to eat ANY candy. It was pretty stale anyways. But still fun to decorate!
Colton is 3 months old! He tips the scales at 17 lbs 6 ounces. He has really good upper body strength and is full of smiles and giggles. He doesn't like "tummy time" and he prefers to sleep in mom & dad's bed. These kids grow up way too fast!

New Addition

This is newest addition to our family. Due to circumstances beyond our control, being a 1 vehicle family just wasn't working out. After close to 2 months of searching, we finally found a 1999 Nissan Pathfinder to meet our needs for a 2nd vehicle. Aaron is excited about the "On the fly" 4 wheel drive. I'm looking forward to a smaller vehicle to drive when we don't have to haul the kids around. Yay!!

December Already?!?!

Kaya had her first dance recital. She did a jazz dance to "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas". Then she did a clogging/tap number to "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer". She did really well and had a good time. She's excited for January when class starts up again.Colton is almost 3 months old and growing like crazy. He has started to reach for things and grab them. He's so cute!
