OUR FUN CHRISTMAS 2010

Ok, ok I have been getting some complaints on lack of pictures and blogging in general... So here we go. We had a really fun Christmas. Clark had the whole holiday off, which was very nice. We love when we can spend that time with him. Santa did find our place and left Nick some really fun stuff. Christmas is the BEST with little kiddos!! Seriously. Priceless.

Our Christmas morning.

This was Nick right in the morning, before we knew he had the flu. So that explains his lack of expression.

Nick has never really had a toy like this, and was super excited to see it. He called the horses "moose" because we have a Christmas moose outside our door, lol.

Nick playing with his fort.

LOVING his bike.

Gotta love the license plate :)

--HERE WE COME--

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! AND...

We're sick.

DECEMBER 24, 2010

Tonights the night! Christmas is so fun as a parent. Our December has been fun, lots of snow. We are lucky to have Jess and Chris and Baby Connor here. Nate's working his way home from Afghanistan and should make it to his sweet wife and girl today! We have had 2 fun family parties. Christmas Eve is always a special time with the family. And we are anxiously awaiting to see if Santa will come to our house tonight. Ha ha, as Nick would say "If we're a good boy..."

Merry Christmas!

NICK'S NIGHT TIME PRAYER

"Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank you for school.

Thank you for Grandma's house.

Thank you for Jesus.

And Grandma makes the walls.

(His borders in his room)

Thank you for bouncy balls.

Thank you for stars.

Jesus Christ, Amen."

Super cute prayer. It made me giggle and smile. I love my kiddo!

NICK'S NEW TALENT...

FAKE BELCHES.

It's official. I have a little boy. Lol.

FINALLY POSTING NICK'S FINISHED ROOM

HUGE thanks to my Hubby for painting the room with me months ago, and to my Mom and Sister for helping with the border. It was so fun, and it turned out so cute!! Nicks reaction was priceless :)

**IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME**

ANYONE INTERESTED IN A SUPER ROMANTIC EVENING OUT??.........

Try: THE LOVE GLOVE!

'The Love Glove. Imagine a chilly but romantic moonlit walk - with a bulky glove in the way of interlocking fingers with your winter love. Introducing the Hand Hugger, the fleece glove for two.'

This is a real thing folks, *giggles*. Clark and I can not stop laughing about it. I was reading through the Utah Valley magazine and this was for sure the highlight for me. It's amazing what great finds you can stumble upon. Anyway...

HOWEVER... If this is the thing for you, check out www.smittenmitten.com.

NICK'S FAVORITE "JESUS SONG" RIGHT NOW

Nick is loving this song right now. He is so funny, any churchy songs he calls "Jesus songs". He likes to sing, it is so sweet. I just love my little guy. What a sweetheart we have. We are very blessed to have Nick as our child and in our lives.

I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus

I'm trying to be like Jesus,

I'm following in His ways.

I'm trying to love as He did

In all that I do and say.

At times I am tempted

To make a wrong choice,

But I try to listen

As the still small voice whispers:

"Love one another as Jesus loves you.

Try to show kindness in all that you do.

Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought,

For these are the things Jesus taught."
