New Years Eve and Christmas Break

For New Years Eve we went to my Aunts House in Spanish Fork. We ate Good food, Played Games and Watched all the New Years Eve Specials on TV. Too bad Ava didn't last Long. She fell asleep in Ryan's arms at 10:00. But she did get to enjoy the New York City count down.

And yes, I do look like a Fat Lard!

Last week my Grandpa brought his four wheeler over to my Aunt Linda's house for the kids to go Sledding. They had so much Fun. Even Audrey, Ava's little friend got to come. They did so good, they wanted to stay outside forever!

My Grandpa and Jake (my cousin that lives in Vegas)

The Girls just wanted to eat the snow the whole time.

Ava even went by herself... it was SO funny watching her just bounce around. Lets just say i was laughing so hard I peed my Pants. Which isn't such a rare thing right now. So far I'm up to having an accident a day. It's SO bad. The Baby just chills on my Bladder so whenever I laugh I can't hold it.

So the Boys new Hobby these days is playing with there Air Soft Guns. They get pretty intense. They set up a course in my Aunts Yard and they play for Hours.

We had such a Fun Christmas Break! Spending time with Family and Friends is our Favorite!

This Christmas we were with Ryan family. It was nice to be with everyone and Ava loved spending time with Olivia and London. I have to say Christmas is SO much better with kids, and this year with Ava was so much FUN. She is at the most perfect age. Just seeing her face when she saw her presents and every moment before Christmas was so much Fun. I can't wait for next Christmas.

Ava has been wanting a little kitchen for so long and she finally got one.

And yes she got another dress-up

The Girls loved playing in the snow, too bad it is so much work... just getting them dressed wore me out. One of the days we were up there Ryan and Eric took the them sledding. And after they were done they went to Hires for ICE CREAM they said they got so HOT. Hauling the girls and the sleds up the hill would get pretty tiring.

On Saturday Braden (Rachel's Boyfriend) invited the boys to go Snowmobiling up by the Canyons and they said that there was a lot of powder and perfect conditions for snowmobiling (I forgot to give Ryan my camera so there are no pictures, sorry)

Seeing the light up at Temple Square.

I can't believe Christmas has come and gone already... does the naughty and nice list work all year long? I guess we will see how long we can use it.

PlaYing in the SNOW!

Ava has LOVED playing in the snow this year and Ryan has been SO good at taking her out and playing with her... Sense I have a Great excuse to not join, sorry Ava maybe next year!

Nate wishes he was a Snow Boarder SO bad... But being in our family i don't think it will slide, we don't ride the "Gay Tray"! Sorry Nate!

SanTa PhoTos

Just one of those things you have to do and post around Christmas time
SANTA PICTURES!

(the top Santa is from the Mall and the bottom one is from our ward Party. And lets just say that Ava did not like that the Santa at the Mall, he didn't wear his coat or Hat... what kinda of Santa is that anyway! )

JaZZ GaMe

Saturday I got a phone call from Denice Roney asking if me and Ryan wanted to go to the Jazz game, and of course we said YES! 100 club, Front Row and Good Food, how could we say No!

So Thanks Denice for inviting us we had SO much Fun!

(Sorry there is no pictures of me and Ryan, but those are pictures that I took from our seats right behind the basket)

Last week we went to my uncle Nick's Surprise Birthday Party at Classic up in Sandy. It was really a lot of Fun. They had Skating, Blow up toys, Laser Tag, and a Huge Jungle Gym.
Ava was in Heaven.

And Yes I did go in the Jungle Gym.
