My Cutie Pie's

Just some fun pics of my little monkies. Oh, how I love these two!

What we've been up to

The month of December flew by for us, but we we able to enjoy ourselves and spend the holiday's with friends and family. To start out the month we went to the "Winter Garden aGlow" at the Idaho Botanical Garden's. The lights were amazing and we had so much fun. Afterwards we took the kids to Merritt's for a scone. Yummy! Mike's Great Grandma Lydia Berreth passed away. Mike has very fond memories of her and we all think it is pretty cool that Hayden and McKall had a Great-Great Grandma! McKall's middle name is after her. She was so funny and she used to say "so whatever" after everything she said, and I mean everything. There were times that it would get me giggling to hear her say it so much! The service was in American Falls on a cold wintry day, and it was fun to see Mike's family. Our first celebration for Christmas was with Mike's mom. We had yummy food and had fun with our family there. Also, that evening we got together with Mike's brothers and sisters to secretly deliver Christmas gifts to a deserving family in need. We have done this for several years and is one of the most memorable things we do this time of year. We all have so much fun preparing and delivering the loot! We did it this year at Brian and Angie's. They had a play tent that Hayden was having so much fun in that they let him borrow it for a week! He was so excited and he slept in it every night until he had to give it back! The funny thing is he has his own tent, but this one was way better apparently!

We also celebrated Christmas with my family. We again had yummy food and fun. One of the best parts of the day was when Hayden got a four wheeler from Grandma and Grandpa Barbour. They had it it the garage, so we told Hayden there was a surprise for him outside. We got him bundled up and we all went out to the garage and had Hayden come out. He walked outside and we showed it to him, and everybody was oooooohhhhhhhing and ahhhhhhhhing and he got embarrassed and ran into the house. He didn't like everybody making a big deal over him! He finally came out and was so excited to ride it. Grandpa Barbour got on his four wheeler and they both rode up and down the street. It was so cute.

We ended our year on a snowy day celebrating with friends, and Hayden got to spend the night at Grandpa and Grandpa Wyler's. I guess I should also add that I need a new bumber because I slid into a rock on New Year's eve! I will just leave it at that! We are looking forward to 2010!
