My Beautiful Family

So, I was going to go to bed early tonight. So much for that.....it seems like I sit down at the
computer to "do a few things" and next thing I know, its 10pm.
Bryan bought me a digital picture keychain for Christmas,
so I had to load some pictures onto it ya know. (48 of them)
Then I sent a few emails and then, decided to do another blog post.

This year at Christmas I wanted (made) Bryan and
each of the kids to take a picture with me. We tried a family
picture at Thanksgiving...and it was, um.....not good.
So I decided to do this instead. I managed to get all my boys to take one with me
on Christmas Eve. Gabby decided she didn't want to. But I found one
of her and I at an earlier date to share with you.
They are silly.....but I love them!
Enjoy!!


Me and Bryan


This was actually the 1st take.  :)


Me and Kody. 
(this was take 3, the second one was so funny we couldn't stop laughing!
I like this one better ....when he is standing up, he is like 5 inches taller than me!)


Me and Jakob


Me and Nolan (my Nolie Boy)
This picture by far turned out the best. And he was the
most willing to take a picture with me!


Me and Gabriella
(biting her nails--my only daughter, and she has to be the nail biter)

Merry Christmas 2011!

Christmas at our house was a success!! The kids all helped us clean the house this morning.. (they know that we cannot open gifts until the house is clean)...
And then we opened presents! They all loved their gifts and are busy playing!

Starting Early  Dr. Nolan


He couldn't reach across the big box, so he just laid on it.


A mini Trampoline!!


Jake got .....More Legos!!


He was upset that he could not open Gabby's box, and didn't want to open anything else.
Then I showed him this toy....He loved it!


Gabby got her Doll House! She has been waiting for one!


Gabby's Art Studio
She was excited to get this Dora Table!


Daddy is here too :)
The last two years he has been out plowing when we opened presents.


Jumping on Nolans Trampoline! Whew!

YEAH!! Nolan says!


Kody's new Snowboarding Gear. He's ready to hit the slopes!

Opening presents!


Ah! A kitty mini pillow pet

Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Now, time for lunch and a Christmas Eve nap. Then off to the Rubin's for Christmas Eve dinner.....(and more presents!)
