Christmas Eve

Every Year since I have been married we have spent Christmas Eve with Oliver's family. We have a nice dinner, read the Christmas story, sing carols, and exchange a five dollar white elephant gift. I really love the night. It is great being with family and remembering the true meaning of Christmas.

I know I look a little creepy in this picture, but I loved Oliver and his brothers in this picture.

Gingerbread house

This year McKinley was old enough to actually enjoy making a gingerbread house. She really enjoyed mixing up the frosting and putting the house together. BUT like any little kid she loved the decorating the most. This year we went to Winco and I let her pick candies out of the bins. I really enjoyed doing it this way because you can pick how much candy you want!

I had the opportunity to go to the David Archuleta Christmas concert with my mom and sisters. I think my mom was the most excited to see David!!!

McKinley's Dance Recital

Oh, how my little girl is growing up. These are pictures from McKinley's dance recital. She did such an amazing job! I did not actually record the night performance , which I am kicking myself in the butt for know, because she was a total hoot. McKinley had the whole audience laughing!!! I hope I can find someone who recorded it.


My little star performer.


McKinley was so excited Torrie, Parker, and Riley surprised us by showing up at that dance recital. McKinley loves her cousins.


As always my little happy man
