Shooting with Dad

 

 

 

 

Carter loves to spend time with his Dad and shooting the BB gun is just about the greatest activity besides maybe playing Halo. Can we talk 4 year old addiction....

Braces

 

 

 

Abigail before, during and after getting her braces on. For those of you that have not had braces for yourself or offspring that middle picture is the torture device. It looks freaky, but it does help, there is even a place for your tongue to keep it out of the way.

School Stuff

 

Carter and Cooper decorating the letter 'S' with sprinkles, sugar, salt and sesame seeds.

 

Eating snack 'Under the table' on 'U' day.

 

Carter and Cooper eating felt food in Robins Raving Restauant on 'R' day.

 

Carter has preschool two days a week with our next door neighbor. Each mom takes one day to teach. We all have lots of fun. The last picture is of Abigail with her award for student of the year. We are all so proud of her.

Dance

 

 

 

 

Every year our stake puts on an adult dance for Valentine's Day. This year it was Dancing Through the Decades. You have got to love Matt's hair and my poor pants....not a good look! I had several women tell me that they had pants like that years ago...SCARY!!!

ABC...D

 

 

 

 

At preschool the other day we started to make some letter shapes using our bodies. The boys had lots of fun doing it...I am glad that they wanted to stop before we got to 'E' because I wasn't sure how two little boys would pull off that shape.

Carter

 

 

 

 

Carter is our JOY! Here are just a few fun pictures....Carter with his handprint tree from preschool, he made a 'D' with his cars, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, and his 2nd gingerbread house.

Sleigh Riding

 

 

 

 

We went up to the 'snow' (not very much I might add) the day after christmas with the Stevens' and the Hill's. We had a great time.

Christmas Morning

 

 

 

 

Opening 'The Gifts' What great happy faces.

Christmas Eve

 

 

 

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

The Hill family joined us for some Christmas Eve fun and we all had a great time. Madison, Abigail, Elena and Carter all sang a song and then *SHOCKER* Carter sang a solo. (Carter doen't sing, it has never been his thing, sometimes he will move his mouth to fake it but that is it) For him to sing all of Jingle Bells by himself was amazing!

The kids all got new christmas pj's and then off to bed. Carter was the only one still awake to hear sants's sleigh bells. It was so exciting.

Santa! Abigail's school play

 

 

 

 

Abigail played Mrs. Claus in her 5th grade christmas musical. She loved getting to sing and do the hand jive. Santa made his appearance at our annual ward dinner. Carter wanted to see him, but was a little nervous.
