After Christmas with Reese and Bronson

We brought these two back home with us for a few days!

(His mom put him in there - I didn't!)



She's a poser! 



Getting ready to leave - come back soon!




My stitch on the back of my head!



Christmas Day in the Morning - 2011

We had a pretty quiet Christmas morning with just Mark and I. 

New rug for the shop

New blenders!  (took one back - got an immersion blender)

My mom made this beautiful quilt for us! 

Bubble Bread and Russian Tea

Visiting Grams and Gramps before Church

Christmas Day in the Afternoon

After Sacrament Meeting we headed to Spanish Fork to spend a couple of days.  We had such a great time playing games, the Wii and eating! 

Ryker's new bike and wagon (he can't reach the peddles so Kody's his chauffeur)

Kody's remote control tractor



Gramps thinks it's awesome!



Wii Dance

Awesome grandkids!

Christmas Card 2011



( I wrote this all by myself!  Mark was too busy this year.) 



More Holiday Fun!

My girls and I learned to make "Stained Glass" Cookies a long time ago.  I decided to attempt it once again. 



I think they turned out pretty cute. 
Kody - little stocking
Nappy - Star
Me - Ornament and big stocking
Lucas - drum
Jed - poinsettia




Drawing a "Christmas Scene" on top of their heads - funny! 



I helped Katie make Hadley's Christmas Dress - she looked adorable I must say!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mark and I spent Thanksgiving with the Call Family in Mesa.  It was absolutely gorgeous weather the entire time - we had a wonderful time  - it was hard to come back to the cold weather here!

Grams made enough pie filling for the army! 

Texas Roadhouse

Indian Abby

Let's eat! 

Cheese! 

Dax and Abby (notice the freshly mowed lawn!) 

Beautiful day to hang Christmas lights! 

We called Reese for her 4th birthday on the 26th.  She was one excited little girl!  I saw her the week before and gave her a new blanket (which Bronson loved!)
