Christmas trip

We are back home safe and sound. David drove slowly there and back and we didn't slide on the road once. Christmas was good. Thank you to everyone for the gifts.

Scott's 2nd Birthday

Scott had a good birthday. He loved the cards more than opening presents. We had chocolate cake, his favorite flavor. As you can see in one of the pictures where he received a shirt from Granny that reads "conserve water, drink chocolate milk". That is our Scotty, now two years old, even though he started terrible two's a while ago.

Christmas in CDA

We are coming back to CDA for christmas. It is the first time the whole family will be visiting since we moved away a year and a half ago. David is getting very excited. Justin was upset at first. He started crying at the breakfast table when I told him we would be going to CDA for christmas. He said he wanted to stay here with Granny. I calmed him down by telling him we will be bringing the presents, but I guess I didnt realize the real reason he was upset because that night he told his dad that he would be sad, but he would go live with us in CDA. We had to explain that we are only going up for a week to celebrate christmas. Once he realized that he would be coming back, he was happy again and excited to play the X-box in the car on the way there, lol. We are getting everything ready, planning our christmas activities, so we can fit them all in before we leave. We will be going to Willard Bay light show on Friday, Dec. 12th. On Sat, Dec. 20th, we have dinner at Andrea's and will go to Temple Square while we are down there. I am packing up the car on Mon., Dec 22nd, and we will be ready to meet up with Andrea and Albert on Tuesday. When we come back on Sunday, we are going straight to my family party at my Grandma's house. Then Monday morning, the boys will wake up to another christmas with my mom. They are all excited that they will be getting three christmas's

Getting Ready for Christmas

We put our christmas tree up on Friday. The boys did a great job putting on the ordaments and the icicles. They were so excited to help put the wrapped presents under the tree. David and I started early with christmas this year, so 90% of our gifts are bought and wrapped. So far they are all doing a good job staying away from the tree. Scott had a few close calls with some of the lower ordaments, but he likes to lay on the rug in front of the tree on his tummy, with his chin in his hands, looking up at the beautiful lights (whether they are on or not). He likes to say "look mommy missmass ights". I am looking forward to taking the boys to the light show in the bay. David's birthday was great. We celebrated on Sunday because because he had to work on Monday, which was really his birthday. He said he had a good birthday. My sister announced that she is 6 weeks pregnant during a game after thanksgiving dinner. So I am due May, my sister-in-law is due June and my sister is due July. We are going to have a very fun summer. Have a safe and fun christmas holiday.
