Happy Holidays!

It has been a busy month!! Hopefully life will slow down soon!

Well the Friday before Christmas, daycare put on a little Christmas program and than Mr and Mrs Claus showed up too. We weren't really sure how Mr. Man would react, but he seemed to have cared less.



I got this balloon for Jason on his birthday. Carter LOVED playing with it! We finally had to let it go yesterday.


I was a little worried putting up a Christmas tree with a wobbling toddler. However, we did only loose two ornaments this year, which neither were broken by Mr. Man. He would simply walk up to the tree, look at the ornmanets, and than walk away.


We had our traditional Christmas Eve. We went to church, opened our pj's, and than had a late Christmas Eve dinner of steak, mashed potatoes, mushrooms, green beans, and wine.








On Christmas moring, Mr. Man didn't wake up until 8am! That was a great present!!! He still didn't understand the present stuff and we ended up opening most of his gifts for him. I'm still not sure where to keep all his toys and books he got. After presents we had our traditional breakfast with mimosas.









Later that afternoon, we had to have the traditional gingerbread making. However, this year we got a kit to make it a little easier.
For New Years, we headed down to St. George to hang out with my family (well minus Mindi). It was the first time Jason and I had made it to midnight in YEARS! Thanks grandma for the fireworks!!!

My little brothers couldn't figure out how to get Carters seat belt on and Mr. Man was a little tired of sitting in the car seat....

All of us playing a game of phase 10---or should be say "skip Jason"


Carter loved going up and down golden grams stairs


My mom brought this chair for Mr. Man. It was mine when I was little. He LOVES it!!!
On New Years Day we went and visited my grandpa in the nursing home. We played some UNO while Mr. Man ran ammock

Well I can't believe it is 2011 now....not sure where 2010 went. I am super excited to see what the year has in store for us. Hope everyone had a great holiday season.
