For we preschool we took a field trip to the fire station. We got there and they were on a call. SO we thought we would wait and let the kids run around for awhile. well after waiting for about an hour we decided we would leave. Bummer, i know, but we r going to try it again next week. Here are some pics of the kids running around.

As always christmas was tons of fun and very busy. It all started christmas eve with the family traditions. We had dinner, the nativity scene, and then Santa came. The kids loved it. Then christmas morning,we woke up opened presents and then headed to my moms house for breakfast, chocolate gravy and biscuits.( a very favorite family tradition). Opened more presents and then back home for lunch. Lunch was at our home with my in laws. There again we opened more presents. We did a white elephant exchange this year, i have to say it was quite fun and will become a new tradition for us. Then came dinner. We went to roys sisters house and had a big prime rib dinner and again opened more presents!!!! So as you can see our christmas was filled with lots of food and opening presents!!!! It was great. I hope everyone had a wonderful christmas and will have a happy new year!!!!!
Last weekend a friend of ours invited us to their cabin in Flagstaff. So we left Saturday Morning and returned that evening. It was pretty cold and there was tons of snow. I could not believe how much snow they got. Anyways they have a private lake in their community and there is a big hill on one side of it. so when it snows they use the hill for sledding. Ryland was not to sure of sledding at first. Roy went down with him the 1st couple times. We pretty much just grabbed ryland and pushed them down, while he was crying like crazy. after about the 4th time going down he wanted to go by himself. He absolutely loved it then. Parker went down to. HE showed no emotion what so ever. Maybe next year he will enjoy it better!!!
