Christmas 2010

I will definitely have to add more details later... but here is a little peak into our Christmas 2010. I heard a good line at church today... Hope you all had a better Christmas than I did... cause that would mean it was beyone amazing! :)

Elk

Ian went on his first really big hunt with my dad and my little brother Colton last month.

They were lucky enough to get an elk for both of the tags they had! Here are some pictures of Ian's elk.

SNOW!

We were SO excited to take Mady to play in the snow a couple weeks ago! Unfortunately... there wasn't much! We had to go up to Flagstaff to pick up the meat from Ian's elk hunt, so we thought we would see if there was any snow while we were at it!

It was kind of a bummer... but she still had fun! She even made a foot tall snowman!

Sorry Mady- better luck next time!

Trying to figure out how to work the ab machine in Bed Bath & Beyond

Cruisin' with Merrick

Getting ready for Christmas!

All 3 kiddos passed out after a walk on Thanksgiving night :)

I have really cute kids...

Which is why I can't figure out why I have been so lazy lately and not taken a lot of pictures! My camera jumps from Halloween clear til the week of Christmas! I really need to get better!

Nothing too exciting going on around here... just getting ready for Christmas... we CAN'T WAIT! Ok, I can't wait... I am way more excited than anyone else at our house! Christmas gets so exciting again when your kids start to get into it!

LOVE that smile! Alivia is all into everything lately... especially the girls' Christmas Tree! It's just her size! Oh well... as long as she's not messing with my tree!

P.S. don't mind the big scab on her nose (which by the way looked 10 times worse the next day) Mady just decided it would be fun to put a bucket on her head and scraped her nose on the way down :(

Not to leave Mady out of the post!

"Mom look! I'm like Mulan!"

She was so proud of her artwork! This is the first time she's really done this! She said she was trying to be like Mulan! (The part where she takes notes on her arm when she's going to meet the matchmaker)
