Christmas festivities

Here's what's been happening lately
1st
Kate climbed up on stage with the primary for the program at the ward Christmas breadfast/ service auction and pretended to know all the songs. it was so cute ( she's still in nursery that's why it was so funny.

2nd
Kate's preschool program she said her little part just great it went like this "T-is for tinsel to decorate the tree, to twinkle and sparkle for all to see. Then they did a dance and also a singing one... they sang I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus, and we wish you a Merry Christmas ( or as she says we fish you a merry christmas)



3rd
Christmas Eve at Jenni's we swung on the swing, Kate and daddy did some tubing and 4 wheel riding, and of course played with the "farm" animals.

4th

Kate decided to do some artwork on the couch, she went to daddy with chapstick (hamstick) in her hand and said look daddy a Christmas tree...

5th

We celebrated Christmas on the 23rd and drove to New Mexico on the 25th... it was great..not a single car on the road, and since we left so early it was so peaceful and beautiful. We got to watch the sun rise and shine on the snow, peaceful that is until we had a bird fly right into our windshield....krrr-splat....Ryan even made the sound effects "ahhhhh.....ewwwww" It was pretty funny but gross. Here's a pic of Kate's teeth full of scooby snacks in the car.

New Mexico was a little rough for me this year cuz the night after we got there Kate got this bad cough and the next night was up literally the entire night puking every 30 minutes. We sat in the bedroom watching backyardigans and scooby from 12:00 midnight to 6:00 am when she finally fell back asleep. After that I decided to take her to the insta care and she ended up with a brochitis type thing so they gave her a steroid and an inhaler which has helped a lot.... unfortunately I got sick too and ended up with some infections of my own one of which was strep.. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year right!

6th

New years
We came home the day before New Years Eve and that was nice to be home especially when we are sick, and poor Ryan didn't get his New Years kiss cuz I was zonked out at about 9:30 while watching Land of the Lost and at 10:30 we crawled into bed... fun eh. We did manage to have a tea party though and play on the "sharkies" (mattress bed in the front room) also we decorated the ginger bread house. It was a different but fun vacation.

7th

Cute little Tommy... can't forget him... he's so great, he just kind of comes along for the ride and is such a good boy.
