Christmas!!!

Okay, I know I'm a little behind on my blog posts it has just been a little chaotic around here with the Holidays and what not. Okay now, where do I begin so much has happened over the past few weeks I don't know where to start. The weekend before Christmas my we spent up at my sister Stacey and her husband Rocky's home is Prescott with the rest of my family!! We had so much fun up there, we spent every night and most of the day playing games and just relaxing. Swayzie and Hudson had a blast playing with their cousins and their mischievous uncle Jake who loves to tease and scare them. It was so nice to be able to play a few games up there while the kids just played together. Most of our family games tend to end a little heated with so many strong competitors. Luckily, this time my husband was able to keep his temper under control!! The kids also got to open presents up there from my family and were spoiled rotten with all the presents, it definitely had them even more anxious for Christmas to roll around. It was sad to leave, the time went by so quickly while we were there. Hopefully it won't be too long before we plan another trip up there!! Christmas morning turned out better than I could have expected, besides the fact that I woke up almost every hour of the night hoping that the kids were awake so we could open the presents. Finally, at around 6 am I decided it would be best to just wake the kids up before I fell into a panic attack!! I have serious issues, I know! They were so excited to find all the presents under the tree. Hudson loved his new bike and had to be yanked from it so that he would open the rest of the presents. Swayzie loved all of the princess stuff Santa brought, however was a little disappointed when she would open something that she didn't think was a "toy". Justin told her that if she didn't want it we could just send it back to Santa and he would find someone that wanted it. That quickly zipped her lip and she was then telling us how much she loved it! We spent the remainder of the day over at Justin's family's home where we opened more presents, and of course the kids were spoiled rotten!! The kid's spent the day trying out all their new toys while we played games. It was a super fun day, I couldn't have asked for anything better!! We then spent the following day's up in Heber with Justin's old friend Billy from Highschool and his wife's family. They had a beautiful cabin that we were able to stay in and a basement full of toys that the kids LOVED!! The boys of course went snowboarding, I was a little bummed that I couldn't tag along. The last trip I spent snowboarding and pregnant didn't go over so well so I figured I'd hold off until after the baby is born. By the way we just found out...It's a GIRL!!



Good morning sunshine, rise and shine!!

Hudson was so preoccupied with his bike, I had to remind him that there were more presents under the tree!!








Hudson was pure craziness!! He was acting like a complete NUT!!

How fun! I can't wait until Rilyn is old enough to really get christmas. this year I ended up opening most of her presents cause she fell asleep! I like you though. I wanted to open presents and wake everyone up at like 7:00 and they all made me wait until like 11:00! I couldn't believe it! I'm sad we couldn't get together this weekend hopefully soon we can though. Is Hudson feeling better? Rilyn ended up with croup. Yuck poor thing can't breathe. Congrats on a girl! I bet you and swayz are so excited! Rilyn is excited for a new friend! Tell Trent that we said congrats on the call to Spain. Thats awesome!
