Catch up from Christmas

Yep...got really far behind. December was a crazy month for me. I worked 123 hours in a 2 week time frame and just had no time to sit at the computer. I wanted to spend all the free time I had with my kids and my husband. I know, I know, I'm selfish! Anyway...a quick update.

I would be rude if I didn't finish the whole "Ute" week thing, my friends spent WAY too much time not to honor them...even if they did make a deal with satan so that Utah would win. (hehe) So, here are days 4, 5, and 6.



They really are great friends and it was fun to have them do this. I just wish that Pam wasn't so dang creative...she makes me feel so inadequate! Luckily, she's going to share all her talent with me and give me her fun ideas!

Next we have Brooklyns 1st EVER preschool program! She did pretty good. We had practiced and practiced her poems...but get her in front of a crowd and there is just no focus! It almost started without her because she had to go potty!

Brison was being a little studious with his reading. He is such a smart boy! HEHE. I thought this picture was to cute to pass up. He's such a stinker!


Next we have the decorating of the tree.. I tried to let go of my OCD and let Brooklyn help. It happened for just a moment, then I freaked out.




The next picture is the next morning and Brison deciding he wasn't going to let the nativity last for more than 3 seconds after waking up!



Just a cute photo opp..!


The sunday before christmas...in their new christmas outfits.


That night, we had the "Travis" family party and Santa came. Brison was so excited!

The cousins on Christmas Eve in their fun new pajamas.

Christmas morning opening presents. Fun, fun, FUN!

Well, I have said it before and i'm sure i'll say it again...sorry such a long post..I'll try to do better next time!

You're so funny! Was that some kind of hint to me about the ideas and stuff? I'm really not that creative. You are the creative one, with your scrapbooks and fancy blog backgrounds and the awesome pictures of your kids. You never forget to capture the sweet and fun moments. I'm getting ideas from you!

Regarding the picture of the kids in their new christmas outfits....did Brooklyn have a little too much of the "special eggnog" you make?? WOW!! Cute post though.

Looks like somebody stays up really late to make fun of others. Listen...the pictures are so small, I can't see what they look like when I add them...SORRY! Brison looks cute though! Now leave me ALONE!

Hey there girly!!! I saw your blog from your Christmas card and thought, 'Why haven't we been blogging together?!" This will be great to keep updated on your family rather than anytime a wedding or shower comes up!
I love the UTE week ideas - you have awesome friends! Cute kiddos- -looks like you had a great Holiday.
