Reading Together

Braily reading the new Olaf book to Kash and Braily from Grandma's 12 days of Christmas! Any time I see these three together like this, my heart melts.

Decorating Christmas Cookies

We decorated christmas cookies for Family Home Evening tonight. Kash had just the right amount of sprinkles to frosting ratio.

Good-Bad Ideas

Kash thought this looked like a really good idea today. His little black ramp is obviously not big enough anymore!

Birthday Dinner

Well, we did do cake and ice-cream for Braily and Shane but for some reason I took no picture. This is the only remnants of Shane's birthday dinner! Rowdy was loving the ribs and potatoes!

Birthday Lunch

Took Braily on her birthday lunch today and of course she wanted to go to Barros. Yes, it is actually Shanes Birthday today, but she has no school tomorrow so we are taking her out today! She wanted Kash to come with us, so he got to get out of school as well! Snapped this picture of all three of them sitting together and playing.

Christmas Tree

We headed out to get out tree today. Shelly called me earlier and said she wasn't putting up a tree this year so we decided to go buy her one! She was so excited to have a real tree and the kids loved picking it out for her. She sent us a picture after she put hers up! Our elf showed up finally too! All the other elf's came on the first but my kids were wondering where theirs was. Now we know!

Tucson Thanksgiving!

We headed down to Tucson for Thanksgiving and did dinner at Grandma Traders! The kids all got to light the candle and tell what they were grateful for. The next morning we headed up to the Cabin for some more fun. Rowdy saw his first javelina and was fascinated by it! Shane went out hunting with the boys and ended up in nothing but his skivvies in the water trying to retrieve one. Luckily Uncle Ryan documented it for me! The kids had fun collecting pine cones and decorating them for Grandmas huge tree at the cabin. The last morning we took all the little kids out for a ride and some shooting. The dads did a little hunting and the kids loved holding the ducks……well except Sadie. Colbie grabbed one for a picture and she didn't realize it till after the first one! It made for a great before and after!
