Game Night

Tired of looking at that gross picture? I am. This year Santa brought us a pluthera of games to play and we have been enjoying them. This fishing game was a blast- the kids got super competitive (and frustrated at the same time). Notice the concentration in their faces-


Miles even enjoyed game night too.

Dustin's late Christmas Present

Dustin thought he would visit the ER just one more time with this beautiful thing...

He dislocated EVERY JOINT while playing a little early morning ball this morning. Looks really gross right? Merry Christmas to us...hopefully we can stay out of the ER for a couple of days?

Christmas Day

What a wonderful Christmas day! It was so much fun relaxing and letting the kids go crazy with all of their new toys.

I had a blast spending yet another year with this great guy...he is such a stud!

Christmas Morning

Here are the kiddos enjoying Christmas morning in their Christmas jammies. They enjoyed opening all their presents- Bennett especially loved the drill he got...and continued to use it all day long to both open things and fix things (the cat, presents, the couch, the tree...) he is such a funny kid!

Christmas Eve

For Christmas eve we did the nativity play with the kiddos. My family does this every year, and since we are spending this year in Vegas we decided to try doing it on our own. This was VERY last minute so we really didn't have the best costumes...but we made do!! Here is our cute Mary and Joseph.

It was very short and sweet..and simple.

Early Christmas

I know I have been way behind in blogging...by the time I get around to blog I am so exhausted that I choose to catch up on my zzzz's!

Had to quickly share about my "early Christmas present" that I received last night. I was making dinner last night when all of a sudden I was in INCREDIBLE pain in my back. Far worse than childbirth... I lay on the ground for awhile until I finally decided action needed to be taken. I called the triage nurse and she told me to get to the ER- so after a quick blessing a wonderful friend came and picked me up and took me to the ER. After a cat scan we finally saw what was the trouble, I have a kidney stone stuck as it was trying to pass (no idea I even had a kidney stone) and it is far too big to pass on its own. They wanted me to stay the night in the hospital (which is really stressful seeing as I have a 5 week old at home who has never had a bottle). After blood work and some morphine they saw that my kidney function was still at 100% so they said I could go home as along as I made an appointment to see the urologist asap. After lots of prayers I woke up this morning to zero pain. Amazing blessing seeing as I can't even talk to my Dr. until Monday. Merry Christmas to me!!
