New Year's Eve

We took the girls up to go tubing in Mantua, by Grandpa and Grandma Johnson's house.

(Jake was there having a sleepover, so he came with us.)

It was so bright out there, I couldn't open my eyes.

Reagan went once on the tube and decided she was done.

I asked if she had fun, and she said it was No fun at all!

I took her back inside.

Morgan and Jake had a lot of fun.

It was pretty cold, but they thought it was worth it!

We headed down to Brigham to my parents house for the rest of the night.

It was a very calm/quiet New Year's Eve Party.

We ate dinner and then Randy fell asleep.

Reagan fell asleep.

So Morgan and I played till Midnight...and then we went home.

It was kind of nice.

Grandma Wyatt reading stories to Ruby and Reagan.

Reagan was wheezing really hard after being outside.

So we did a breathing treatment and she fell asleep.

Grandpa Wyatt and Hannah taking a nap.

Morgan and Grandma Wyatt playing with the Moon sand.

Morgan thought it was pretty cool that she got to stay up so late.

She is growing up too fast.

I love you Morgan.

Ellie

Ellie loves to use her tongue.

She just wraps it around all of her toys.

Just another day...

I put Ellie in the saucer today for the first time.

She seemed to love it!

I think Ellie liked to eat it more than anything.

Morgan holding Ellie.

Reagan holding Ellie.

It was snowing and blowing so hard today.

So when I opened the front door it looked like this...

I door was almost frozen shut.

Kind of crazy!

Johnson Family Christmas Party

We got together with the Johnson's the day after Christmas, for the annual Christmas party.

We enjoyed Navajo tacos, made by Randy and I.

I will have to say they turned out really well...everyone loved them!

After dinner we all gathered together to say what we are thankful for...it was wonderful!

I can't say enough, how much I love my family!

I have 3 wonderful little girls.

They have brought so much joy to my life!

I am truly grateful for Randy...it's hard to know where to begin.

This year has been crazy, but awesome!

I love Randy more than ever. I am so lucky to have him as my Eternal Companion.

After that, we all headed downstairs to play the present game. We all bring a $5 gift and wrap it LOTS of times. We throw it into a large box and the fun begins. We roll the dice trying to get a 7 or 11...and then racing to unwrap a present. And we have to do it while wearing gloves and a scarf. It's a lot of caois, but tons of fun! We do the kids seperate, so that no one gets hurt.

Moragn unwrapping as fast as she can go.

We love Play-Doh.

Once we were done with the game, the kids had a fun time playing in the boxes.

Christmas Day

Morgan and Reagan were so much fun this year.

I'm sure I say that every year, but they make Christmas so much fun!

Christmas Eve, Morgan kept asking if it was time for bed.

She kept telling me that they needed to go to bed early, so that Santa could come.

Reagan came in about 7am on Christmas Morning.

Me: "Reagan, did you sleep good?"

Reagan: "Ya, can you make me some milk?"

Me: "Reagan, its Christmas! I bet Santa came."

Reagan: "I don't think so, I didn't have sugar plums dance in my head!"

"Little Critter said I would have sugar plums dance in my head."

Me: " Go wake Morgan up, and we'll go see if Santa came."

Reagan: "Morgan its time to wake up."

Morgan: "OK..."

Reagan: "Mom says its Christmas.."

Reagan still wasn't convinced that it was Christmas,

but she was pleasantly surprised when she got downstairs.

The first thing Reagan said when she got down stairs, was "TREATS!"

Reagan had everyone's stockings dumped out within seconds.

Morgan was in awe over everything!!

I woke Ellie up, so that she could be apart of it....Ellie is so happy when she wakes up!!

Morgan and her humongous doll that she asked Santa for.

Ellie's 1st Christmas!

It wore her out!

Christmas Night we headed out to Willard for the Stucki party.

It was wonderful!

We got family pictures taken. I'm excited to have a extended family picture.

My Grandpa Stucki is so sweet, he always makes sleighs for everyone.

They are different every year, each one very special.

It was a very Special Christmas.

We aren't sure how much longer my Grandpa will still be here, so it was a very emotional time.

My Grandpa sang a song to my Grandma. It was so sweet!

Eating a few munchies!

Showing off our Sleighs.

I wanted to get a picture, before they were eaten!

Reagan had the sleigh torn apart before I could even take a picture of her and her sleigh.

Reagan loves her treats!!

My Grandpa is so cute, he makes Morgan and Cohen special sleighs that are dairy and gluten free. It makes Morgan so happy when she can actually eat the treats!

Christmas was perfect!!
