Ho Ho Ho

It's been a couple of weeks since I last blogged, so I have some catching up to do.
This is what we've been up to...
We made our annual trip to Utah to finish our Christmas shopping and spend some time with my sister, Melissa, and her family. The kids got a surprise visit from Santa and Mrs Claus. They were all sooooo excited!! Well.....except for Bentlee!!

We drove downtown Salt Lake to Temple Square to see the beautiful Christmas lights...
It was SOOOOOO cold!! But well worth the drive!!!

On December 10th, my "bff" Branon turned 6. He had the BEST DAY EVER!! First, he got to take snacks to kindergarten, then his best buddy from school got to come over and play, and last of all...we took him to see "A Christmas Carol." It was kinda scary, but the kids still loved it!!

He wanted a Monster Truck cake. This is my "lame" attempt at a Monster Truck cake!

To top it all off...a Nintendo D.S. The kid was in "heaven!"

"All Bridger wants for Christmas is his one front tooth!"

Catching up...

This is my sister's new house. It is almost finished and we were able to have our Thanksgiving dinner there. There was PLENTY of room for all of us. My whole family was together and we had a BLAST!!

There was a lot of "B.S'ing" going on in this group!!

Branon's kindergarten class sang at the Festival of Trees!!
They were so cute and did a WONDERFUL job!!
His teacher informed me that he didn't want to wear a Santa hat
because it would mess up his hair. He must have changed his mind!!!
CRAZY KID!!
