Hey Everyone!!! ha ha yes we are still all alive and kicking!!! Wow where to begin.... ummm.... Thanksgiving was GREAT!! We all stuffed our faces and then wished we hadn't ha ha!! David and I have made it our tradition for the last couple years to go out with the rest of the crazies to do some shopping the day after thanksgiving!! Skyler is at the age now that he can tell us exactly what he wanted for christmas and this year he wanted "lego star wars" and batman and robin!!! So David and I were on a mission to find these toys!! We went to Wal mart at midnight and then to Kohls at 5!! We pretty much got all our gifts from kohls, oh how i love that store!! We went to a couple other stores that day too and by the time we were finished I was beyond EXHAUSTED!!! I'm so grateful i have such wonderful parents who watched my boys while we went on our hunt for the best toys for our kids!! (We took Brexlyn with us since she is still attached to mommie every 2-3 hours ha ha).
Christmas was a blast this year with a 3 and a half year old and a two year old things were kinda noisy and messy but i loved every minute of it!! Christmas was hard for my parents this year becuz all their kids were gone... Cody and Sue are in Washington with their two soon to be three beautiful children (Kaiden and Kyleigh and baby).... Rachelle and Scott were in Boise with his family this year.... and the baby of the family Austin is on a mission in California (and loving every minute of it).... so we invited them to our house to watch the kids open their gifts which i think they enjoyed very much!! At first it was calm and then once the boys realized how much fun it was to open presents they pretty much just tore right thru every present under the tree and the ones my parents brought over!! ha ha they didn't care if it was theirs or not they jus kept going til all the gifts were opened... and YES my kids are SPOILED ROTTEN!!! (i'll post pictures and you can see for yourself) David and I didn't buy too much for each other this year becuz we bought ourselves a new bed not too long before Christmas so we decided that our brand new KING size bed was our christmas!! Although I totally found the cutest bed set for our room!!! and i got it for such a good deal!!! Its black and white Zebra print with giraffe print also!!! I totally love it!! it fits our bed perfectly!! Christmas time is alwayz a busy time for us.... Christmas eve this year we spent at my grandmas and then davids grandparents and then we went home to finish a few things and then off to bed.... Christmas we woke up and spent the morning with my mom and dad and then we went to their house to talk to Austin on Skype (which the kids really enjoyed.... Skyler misses his uncle Austin very much... Gaige was only 13 months old when he left so he doesn't know him to well) it was really good to see him... although it makes us miss him even more... after we went to the church house with davids extended family and then to his dads house for that get together and then we went to David's grammies for dinner and socializing!!! By the time we got home Christmas night we were ALL ready for bed!!! But all in all Christmas is alwayz an enjoyable time!!
