Christmas

Our Christmas Eve was so fun! We had the missionaries over for dinner along with Glen, Darby, Cindy and her kids. We had a fun dinner and then did a Christmas Eve program with scriptures and songs and then played games. 

This is the beautiful quilt Rachel made for us and even embroidered our family name in it!!! Sooo wonderful. My kids have slept with it every night since. She also made me an adorable fabric bag we'll use when we go to the library :)

Figuring out Ruth's flying fairy from Santa. :)

A super fun gift from Ben's sister, Jenny Cazier. How fun!!

My happy girls!

This is how Lucy and I watch sports with Ben. (play around and take selfies!)

So much fun cousin time!

They love playing together. 

Lots of games were played :)

This is what I made for Tyler for Christmas - one side has Pokemon organizers and the other has need gun and bullet holders. 

Lucy with her baby swim suit on her head. I don't know why they like wearing swimsuits all the time!

So silly

Raking leaves at cousin Brian's house and the kids just love to squish the leaves down!!

Ice skating in costume :) Cottonwood heights rec center threw a great Halloween party- the girls loved it!

Now for some pictures of us at the ward Halloween party. It was so fun! 

They had princesses to hand out the candy. My girls thought they had gone to Disneyland! So cute :)

Ben and his sister Jessica after she got set apart to go in a mission. Taiwan here she comes!!!

 Ben took the girls to the library program showing various reptiles. Good thing these girls have a dad that will do this because I'm not excited about this at all! Good thing I was at work!

The last day of glasses- I sure love my LASIK and it's been a great recovery!

Watching general conference (Lucy's latest thing is coloring on herself if we don't watch her carefully) 

In between sessions we made green glow in the dark gak to have them play with in bags. 

Here's some of Ruth's preschool friends- we host once a month doing a mommy preschool that rotates around. 

Lucy is slowly gaining a little weight. What ever she will eat we let her! (Other than treats which she would eat all day of course if we let her.)

And a fun trip to trafalga fun center after the kids helped/let me clean all day. 

Beth in kindergarten

This is a picture of Beth's first day when she said she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up! 

The 5th grader wax museum- the 5th grader would recite part of a speech if you pushed their button. It was on Halloween so they dressed up as their famous person. 

Beth and some of her friends on Halloween!

She got invited to a classmates Christmas /birthday party and they had Santa come!
