Sledding!

We had a lot of fun going sledding with Grandma and Grandpa and Doug, Autumn and Braxton. Even little Kyson got to go down a couple of runs. Gavin loved it and would say "Again!" as soon as he got down to the bottom of the hill. His favorite was riding on Braxton's back.

Kyson's new toy

Kyson has found a new toy! He loves the piano. He looks like such a big boy sitting in the chair next to the piano. He gets so excited and pounds away at the keys.

A little Kyson update:

Kyson is now 10 1/2 months, and coming up his one year birthday soon! It amazes me how fast the time has gone. He is such a good baby. He is generally very good, unless you take something away from him that he wants. Then he screams bloody murder! He is a little jabber and loves to hear his voice. I'm pretty sure he knows two words. "Mom" and "nana" (for bannana). He says "mom" anytime he sees me and "nana" when I give him a bananna.

I LOVE bathtime!

I love bathtime! Gavin and Kyson can sit for hours and play in the tub together. Kyson figued out how to splash water and goes crazy with it! I love these boys!

Losee Cousins

Barbara wanted to get a picture of all her little grandkids, and Gavin wasn't the best at cooperating, so here is the best we could do...

Christmas Break

We had such a fun and relaxing Christmas Break. We tried to stay home as much as possible and enjoy the beautiful snow. One morning Gavin wanted to build a train track, so we spent most of the morning putting this massive track together, (and when I say "We" I mean "Me"). After 10 minutes of him playing on it, he said "All done!" and started to put it away. Oh well, I had fun putting it together!

Gavin's friend Brielle came over to get Gavin to ride on the sled and play in the snow. I bundled Gavin up, and sent him on his way, and then bundled Kyson up and went out to watch him. In the short amount of time I was bundling Kyson, Gavin had already got cold and was ready to go in. So poor little Kyson was bundled ready to go, but didn't get to enjoy the snow!

Here is Gavin walking in the middle of a snow pile, instead of walking around where it isn't as deep. No wonder he was so cold!

Christmas 2009

We had a WONDERFUL Christmas! We hope you all did too!

Christmas Eve Eve Gavin and Kyson got to open their first gift, which are pajama's. We wore our pajamas all day Christmas Eve and stayed home to watch Christmas movies and have a big Christmas dinner and then later we drove around and saw the lights around town. After seeing the lights, we went to my parent's and had a high quality play about the Nativity. Our stars for the evening were played as folllowed:

Gavin-The Wiseman (yes, the wiseman is giving the Baby Jesus his puppy, two trucks, and a box that is suppose to have gold.)

Kyson: A sheep

Braxton: Joseph

Damon: Wiseman

Kylie: Mary

William: Baby Jesus

On Christmas Day we had a lot of fun watching Gavin get excited about all his new gifts.

We are so grateful for spirit of Christmas. A time to think of others and to give. A time to reflect on our Savior and for the most important gift that he gave us. A time to be with family and those we love. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from my two cuties!

Gingerbread House

We made our gingerbread house the other day. I don't know how much of a gingerbread house we are going to have before christmas, because someone keeps stealing candy and icing off of the house!

Future Hellians

We had a fun Christmas Party with our friends and their families. JD was so nice to host it in his new home. It is amazing how fast all the little kids are growing! I loved seeing them all play with each other.

Snow!!

We love that the snow is here! We got bundled up and went to Autumn's and played in the snow with Braxton. Kyson just sat there. I have never seen him so straight faced. He didn't cry, so I think he liked it. Gavin was so funny and just liked walking in it and eating it.

Santa!

Santa made a little stop at our ward Christmas party. Gavin was really nervous, so I wasn't allowed to leave his side. The only way I got him this close was because I said that he would get a candy cane. Candy always works for this kid. He did tell Santa that he wanted "trucks" (which he can now say the right way!!) and "trains". Kyson loved sitting on Santa's lap and touch his beard.

Cute Boys

Gavin and Kyson are always making us laugh. Here are a couple of funny things they did that I caught on camera. Of course, it probably is only funny to me.

I gave Kyson a bottle, and he was laying on the couch drinking and Gavin climbed up right next to him and started drinking his sippy. It makes me lauh how Gavin tries to be like Kyson. Giving the dogs a bath. Look how big Kyson looks standing up next to the tub! Gavin is always a big help. He is always right by my side helping me clean, vacuum, dust, etc. On Sunday at church he was entertained for most of Sacrament Meeting by cleaning our seat with a baby wipe. He must be related to Grandma Deana.

My little protege

I was given this quarter size violin, in exchange for teaching piano lessons. The little violin was the perfect size for Gavin. We had our first "lesson" and he did really good. He knows how to hold the violin, and knows where to play the bow on the strings. Enjoy his beautiful song!
