Laura, David, Debbie, and Kaitlyn came to visit us after Christmas. We had a fun time playing in the snow and then that night we went swimming together. It has been so wonderful to see my family. I haven't seen Laura and David for about 2 years and it has been about 1 1/2 since I have seen Debbie and Kaitlyn. I am very thankful we were able to spent this Christmas with them:)

Winter Fun

Snow Fun on Christmas

On Christmas Ryan and Jaden enjoyed playing in the newly fallen snow. They made a snowman and then went in the spa while it kept snowing and snowing. Ryan loves to get out of the spa and run around in the snow.

Christmas Morning

We woke up at about 6:00 am to see what Santa had brought, and then about 6:30 the lights went out!! The storm knocked our power out for about 3 1/2 hours that morning. So, we had Christmas morning in the dark. Lucky for us Santa had put flashlights in all of the stockings. We had a great cold morning and enjoyed the day together. It was really a very white Christmas as we got 16' of new snow that day. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas filled with peace and happy moments with family!

November Track Break

This break the boys had 4 weeks off, so we had a lot of time to do some fun things. I always enjoying having them home and so does Addy. We went to the Zoo, the boys took a lot of swim lessons, and we got to go to the dinosaur museum. We also went and see Madagascar 2 with Grandma Wilcox over Thanksgiving and I took the boys to see Bolt. It was a lot of fun. Then we went on the Polar Express with Grandma Holland, Aunt Pamela, Uncle Joel, Kelsey and Christian. The kids really enjoyed the ride and time with their cousins. We also had a Christmas Party with our great neighbors where Mr. and Mrs. Claus dropped in to surprise the kids. Jaden and Addy were sick, so they had to miss all the fun at the party. Ryan was the only one well enough to make it. It has been a great break. We only have 2 1/2 weeks before our next break. So, it will go fast. Merry Christmas Everyone.
