Christmas with My Family

Wow it's hard to get a picture of these 3 together!

Clark's present was as big as he was!

This was the #1 thing on Aaron's Christmas list!

We have a jedi in training!

Denny got a disc golf target, so they practiced before and after lunch.  This wasn't our typical Christmas weather, but no one was complaining!

Our Christmas!

We had our Christmas on Christmas Eve.  For the most part it was a pajama day...the best kind!  That evening we had a beautiful service at church.  The perfect way to celebrate the season!

Ryan loved his bullet pocket knife!

Rapid Fire Nerf gun.  We're ready for Nerf Wars on New Years Eve!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Christmas in Missouri

Last weekend we had our Christmas with Denny's family.  Of course no trip is complete unless we shoot guns at Uncle Darrin's.  :)

Getting ready to play our annual Dirty Santa game.  We also played Bingo afterwards.  It was all so much fun!!

My nierces Emily, and Essie.  Hmm...this is how my boys hug. :)

Denny's sister, Dawn, and her kids.  Poor Scott was sick the whole time we were there.

Ryan won a knife in our dirty santa game.  He loves it and his Uncle Darrin!

Edmond Doyle Christmas Program

Ryan and Avery are at the same school this year.  (I love it!)  Their Christmas play was tonight and they both did great.  They looked pretty good, too!

Band & Orchestra Concert

Aaron's Band concert was last week, and tonight was his Orchestra concert.  We're so proud of him and how well he's doing!

In band he plays percussion, so he plays a different instrument for each song.

In orchestra he plays the bass.

Both bands did great!

Oh Christmas Tree!

William made me a Christmas tree out of pallets.

LOVE IT!

Birthday Parties

Avery, Clark, and Brady had a joint birthday party at IYogurt last night.  Avery is 7, Clark will be 4 on the 15th, and Brady will be 2 on January 14th.

After the party Avery & Clark came home with us.  This is what we got Avery for her birthday, so we did some nails and a few tattoos.  :)

Hiding under the bed.  Guess I could've let them sleep there!

Christmas Parade

Here are a few pics from our Christmas parade.  Denny wasn't feeling well, and the boys didn't want to go.  So, I went by myself and had fun with these guys!

This was Mom & Dad's 38th Wedding Anniversary!

This is Clark's friend from church.  They held hands through part of the parade!

Happy 13th Birthday Aaron!

Here are a few pics from his family birthday party.

Denny got his gifts then, too.  Clark picked this card out just for him!

This is how Aaron spent his birthday.  After dinner & homework he wanted to play Minecraft on the computer.  Can't believe he's 13!
