CHRISTMAS DAY!!!

 Christmas this year was on a Sunday, so the kids had to open and then get ready for church.  Church was awesome with a nice program and my dear sweet friend Christie Perkins spoke on angels.  It was powerful.  We love Christmas.  This year was the first year Cordelle's been a SWATC so because they don't really have kids in school, they all kind of take the whole week in between Christmas and New Years off!  We play a lot of games and do a lot of puzzles, which we couldn't enjoy more!  I love being with my family.  We really have a great time together.

 Later in the week we went and saw a Moana, which Collin was quite unsure about because of the Lava monster... as you can see by this picture.

Christmas performance and a Trip up north

 Seth's holiday performance incuded square dancing with Addie Young and a little bit of break dancing worm action to JuJu on that beat.  

Next we headed up north for the weekend.  Our first stop, the BYU mens basketball game.  So fun and loud, Cody did not like it, but eventually fell asleep amidst the craziness and people.


 A little cousin time with new electronics.

 Singing Christmas songs with Grandma Morris and the other Morris' (we sure do love that family).

 Then off to Tallie's for the Mason family Christmas Party where we all gotta hang and talk with Santa.

December!!

 I guess its worth the mess, if he actually plays with his toys right?

Collin and I's Lincoln Log creation on cold winter, inside day! 

 Had the chance to go and see the Forgotten Carols for the first time and I gotta say, it was pretty incredible.  I was grateful for the invite from Alicia.

What ever it was, it went fast.  And at that price, who can blame them?


The next couple of pics are a window into our Sunday afternoons...random but memorable.






 Collin teaching family home evening.

 Jaquelle at her Holiday performance for school.


 Jaquelle and McKell
 Isn't she just the sweetest thing ever?

 I spend a great deal of my time downstairs doing this...organizing toys. I am not sure who documented this on a camera.

 Seth shooting a foul shot at his city league basketball game.  This was the first year he played (4th grade) and loved it!  We missed the first game and I guess they got creamed y like 40 points.  Seth showed up the next game and he did amazing and scored like 6 or 7 fast break lay-ups.  He definitely loved it and even scored a few 3-pointers...which you would have thought was the buzzer winning basket of a national championship game for how excited he was.

And this is a picture from Cordelle's office of a beautiful rainbow over Cedar High one morning.

Little pieces of November


 Nothing cuter than a sleeping baby being swallowed  by the bed.
 Random photo of moi.
 I often find picures like this on my phone grouped togethe with pictures of a foot, or a half of a nostril, or my messy house...sometimes it makes me laugh, sometimes I realize why I have no space on my phone....
 Can you find the culprit of the random photos?

 He often sits on my counter while I do my make-up.  He climbed into the sink one day and then found himself in quite the predicament.  :)

 Cordelle was subbing in primary one day and took this picture of Collin.  Bored? Or extra attentive?

 We just happened to go to Pizza Cart one night while our good friend Ryan was there tying his balloons.  So naturally we all got our orders in.  (Happened to be Ryan's 

 Sometimes the binki just won't get off of the thumb.....probably how thumb suckers begin.
Well now that Cordelle is released from the Bishopbric, we thought we should grab one last picture of the three of them.  Good times.
