Our Family: January 2011

This Christmas we were busy.. We had so much family to see and so little time. Our Christmas started on December 16th with Ceilee's Christmas Program. He little Class was so adorable they all got to be angels. They walked up so confidently and sang their song to their hearts desire and of course we could hear Ceilee and one other kid loud and clear.

Christmas Eve we had a busy day. I had School and then after School i we got ready and went to Meridian to Ben's Grandparents where every year they have a dinner and a Christmas program with all the Grandkids. Unfortunately this year we were unable to stay for that since we needed to get home in order to get our Christmas Eve traditions taken care of. So we made it home and the Kids opened their one present each they got their Christmas jammies and the set of Home Alone 1-4 so we got blankets and pillows and we all layed downstairs and watched Home Alone together. The kids really enjoyed the movie they were so funny laughing at the guys i think Mitch's favorite part was every time the Bad guys got hit in the head and Ceilee really like every time Kevin would scream.. I love these moment and i don't ever want them go change.

Ceilee was so excited when she saw the movie.. Ben's favorite movie so she saw him excited about it and that is the reaction we got from her.. lol

After our movie the kids came up to my room and we all slept there that night waiting for Santa to come.. After Ben and I put the presents out and filled the stockings i went up to check on the kids while he put the boxes away. The kids could hear the door opening and some clunking sounds and they thought it was Santa.. they were so excited they could barely sleep.

Thanks Aunt Jenna

The dogs loved their Bones.

after we opened all our presents we got ready and Headed to Ben's Moms to meet with his siblings to do Christmas with all of them. The kids always love going over to Merri Jo's. After her place we came back home and met up with Ben's Dad on his way to Sand Hollow where once again unfortunatly we couldn't make it out to. So after we exchanged gifts with him we headed to my moms for Christmas with My family until 4 when the kids had to go to their dads. Even though it was a very busy holiday we enjoyed every minute of it.

So we made it back home late and got packing for Spokane where Ben and I headed to spend New Years with His Aunt and Uncle. We had so much fun, on our way we got to spend a day with my dad in Kennewick and then headed to spend the rest of the week in Spokane where we did nothing and it was soo nice. We played A LOT of Texas hold'em and Guitar hero with Lyndsey.

We woke up to a ton of snow.. it was all dry the day before.

Kota loves the snow she is just waiting for someone to throw some at her

I love when he plays the Guitar

Then we got to start of the New Year with Mitchie's birthday and Surprise, Surprise.. He picked a spiderman Birthday. Unforturnatly for us Mitch had to spend his birthday in the car coming back from his dads.. so while he was gone i cleaned his room and made his bed with his new spiderman comforter. When he made it home he opened the door and Ben and I gave him his mini cake to hold him over until Friday for his Party
