Christmas.. ..

Ok....so, I didn't get ANY of my own pics on Christmas :( My camera is messed up and I just need to get a new one. No phone pics either because I kept losing my phone Christmas Eve and morning. I'm going to be stealing a lot of pics from my mom and Jess ;)

Avery got a few Dinosaur items from Santa :)
Me and the kids spent the night at my parents house Christmas Eve because Harley had to work until 11:30 that night and go right back in Christmas morning at 6:30 :(....we certainly missed him and I made sure we didn't do 'Christmas' at our house until he got home so he wouldn't miss it :)

I think overall the kids really enjoyed themselves. Cash was WAY too stimulated Christmas Eve...That little stinker kept me up until 1:00 am!!! I'm STILL trying to recover from all the festivities... I still haven't got our of town family their gifts yet...I didn't do Christmas cards...It's been a very different/rough end of the year, however, I'm still greatful for all my wonderful family and friends.

Girls NiGhT!

My dear friend, Stacy, planned the best over~nighter in Park City for some of us girls in the ward....
It was SO much fun!
.

We ate the best food!

We stayed in a spectacular condo!

We played 'Just Dance' on the wii.

We ate junk food!

We totally enjoyed each others company:)

We all got to know each other better and it was awesome relating to these amazing girls. We all have our own 'things' we deal with in this world and it's nice to know that we're not alone. Not only do we have our Heavenly Father but, he gave us each other as well :) That's a very comforting thing to have! Thanks ladies.

HaPpY HaLlOwEeN!

Pumpkin carving with the family every year is one of my favorite traditions.
Say hello to Tammie. She's the familys newest addition :)...& Cash adores her.

Dave being the 'secure' man that he is is sporting a cute Christmas looking apron.

We had some really good soup/food yet, that's no surprise at these family gatherings.

Yes, that's a knife in Cash's hands and yes, we knew he had it ;)
We're fabulous parents.

Avery hauling her pumpkin to the table to carve it.

Brandon's adorable new girl, Daniel...hi Heater ;)

Avery got to have a Halloween party at her pre~school and wear her Buddy costume.
(Yes, that is a HUGE head)

Avery picked their costumes this year. She's still obsessed with dinosaurs so.......she's Buddy the T-Rex (from Dinosaur Train) and she picked out a Triceratops costume for Cash.

That's a good angle to truly see the ginormous head ;)
....& Avery being shy.

They had a parade down the street.

Siblings didn't have to dress up, however, I thought Cash should so he wouldn't feel left out from what his big sister was doing and he looks SO cute!

Mrs. Kate had the kids line up in the garage so all the parents could take pictures.

Inside Mrs. Kate had games set up for the kids. We made a Candy necklace first and she would only let Daddy help her.

& Cash :)

She eventually got tired of holding up that HUGE CRANIUM :)

Snack time :) There were a lot of treats to keep these little rascals happy.

And now the 'Adult' Halloween party.
.

Harley had to work until 10:00pm that night and then when he got there the only pics we got together were all blurry :(

Marilyn Monroe was there & the Hostess ;)

We had a Harlem Globe Trotter.

Elvis our Host.

Lil' Jon

Keith Stone

The DEVIL

These guys are a lot of fun and good friends.

FINALLY Trick or Treating!!

Harley put this mask on that Dave brought and a cape that Heather left and it scared the poop out of Cash :(....

He was not happy about this costume.

So Harley helped Dave put it on.

We went to a few houses and then Avery decided she was sick of going house to house and just wanted to go see Tracii and Maloree.

Maloree and Charlee are both getting so big and cute!
Halloween was great. Harley's birthday was great. Tammie came up to our house to baby sit for us so we could go to dinner and a movie.
Happy Birthday Harley! We love you.
