Every year our neighbor and Justin's familys good family friends have invited us to their Christmas party. We always have so much fun and the best part is Santa always stops by! The girls have been so scared before but not this year. They Loved HIM. I wish they would listen to me when I tell them their Elf TOBY tells Santa  everything. Josie isn't to worried about it though. She told Santa last night that she wanted a easybake oven even after I told her she can't have one! When I asked her about it she was so cute and said I know you sad no Mom but I had to ask.

 I love this time of year and showing our girl's the real meaning of Christmas. Last Thursday night Justin had to help with the animals at the Nativity so we decided to all go that night also. Anyone that really knows my girl's know how busy they are. Well during the show they were everywhere and tried everyone's lap at least once. When Justin got home that night he told me a family in our ward were all angels for the show and asked if I had seen them which I hadn't. I forgot about the whole thing until the middle of sacrament when Josie turned around and said look dad there is the Angels! Little thing's like this really let us know they really are paying attention.

Christmas Dresses

I know I already posted the girls in their dress but Addison has a few this year! Thank you to Josie, Fallon, and Taytum's hand-me- downs this girl was set this year! It seem s like Addison is growing like a weed latley. As soon as Josie is out of Something Addi is in it. Pretty soon she is going to pass up her big sister.

Girl's can rope too!

I just love these two! We have to have 2 of everything or else it's a fight. Addison thinks she is almost 4 just like Josie and tries to do almost everything like Jo. Including making messes!  Last night they both wanted to rope it was so cute!

Justin & Summer

Saturday we went to Logandale for another roping. Justin's heeler's all missed but then he tried heeling and loved it. He ropes the  heel-o-matic all the time but I think he really had fun. He is sticking with the heading though. Brad's girlfriend won the # three.Yeah Summer!

Random pictures but this blog is way overdue for an update! These are pictures of our Christmas tree before we chopped it down and also before we lost it! Yep it flew out of the back of the truck and we didn't even know it. Luckily we found pretty fast in the middle of the Lund Highway before any cars ran it over but it really is a Charlie Brown tree now!

Our Girls

In their Christmas Dresses! Justin was gone this morning before church and stayed late after  so I tried and this is the best I got.  They can't wait for Christmas and Josie already asked this morning if she could just open one present. They have an elf at our house this year and they love to see where he has hid. I'm not sure that he is helping them behave but it has helped motivate Josie a couple of times.

Check out our new Family pictures! I am so glad we finally got them done. Thanks Katie!!

Roping

Last weekend we went to Logandale So Justin could rope. He really hasn't practiced that must these past few months but that didn't stop him! He came home with this new saddle!

18 months

Addison at 18 months!

Loves her JoJo
Mommy, & DaDa.
Loves to give kisses.
Loves to play with Baby Dolls.
Loves animals- real or fake.
Loves books!
Loves when dad comes home from work and will scream until he picks her up!
She is such a sweetheat and very tender hearted. Doesn't talk much at all but if she wants something she will yell mama over and over until we figure out what it is. She thinks she is as old as Josie and there for can do anything she can. One of her favorites is to dance on the table! Scares the heck out of me. We love our little Addi Bear!

Candy time

Poor thing looks like she is wearing makeup but  really it is just wind burnt

I have the Cutest little bumble bee!

Saturday night was Trunk or Treat and we made it home from the sand dunes just in time. The girls filled their buckets and loved it. Then on Halloween night we took them to my grandparents and did a couple houses in their neighborhood. Addison can't get enough of the lights and scary sounds. After that we headed to Justin's parents but Josie didn't last and fell asleep in the truck.  They had a fun couple of nights dressing up and took home way to much candy!

 Thursday night we hurried and packed and headed to the sand. We all had fun going on rides, playing games with the Beckwiths, eating, more rides, smores and just hanging out. Josie really suprised us -everytime Pat's buggy left camp she wanted in it and she LOVED it. I get so scared and scream I thought for sure she would too. She would just hold Jac & Taylor's hand or whoever and not say a peep. Addison loved that she could eat dirt all day and was just as happy if you sat her on the four wheeler. I am so glad that Justin has calmed down after having kids. I remember the first time I went to the Dunes with him and someone was jumping off the "mountain" and I didn't know where he was at the time. Turned out it was him. Not that he doesn't jump anymore but he has gotten smarter and doesn't do it in front of me!

Addison & Aunt Krystal

Justin ran around our camp site holding the kill rope while Josie rode. She did so good but we were a little nervous she was going to run into something.

Loving it in the middle

Biggest Chair

Can't camp without dutchoven tators!

Yes I am yelling at her! The fire is HOT and she wanted in it.

COLD CREEK

Last Friday Night we headed for the cooler weather to look for elk. The girls loved seeing the wild horses.
