Fun Visitors!

We love it when we have special visitors especially T.J., Ansley and Cohen. We always have so much fun hanging out with these guys. We did a lot of hanging out inside because of the awful weather but we did make it out a few times...

Trip to the ZoO
The best part about our Zoo is that you can go year round. It is definitely nice to have something to go do when it is in the single digits.
This picture cracks me up...
Monkey boy Cohen and Ansley

Snow day
The school closed early one day because of the weather so Spencer got to have a snow day with the boys.
Cohen wasn't sure about the freezing weather.
Beckham just got over a cold so he only got to watch.


Trip to the Mall
Kelan got some money from his Papa for Christmas and spent it all at the first store we went to. Kelan saw the Car umbrella and said "oh mom look it's a brella... Santa forgot to bring this to me from his workshop." It was pretty funny. Thanks Papa!
Beckham and Cohen cruisin together.

Hanging Out inside

Happy Birthday Beckham!

All I can say is WOW time sure does fly by. It is crazy that our little Becky Boo is now ONE. He is getting SO big. We love this little guy to death! He is so much fun and sure keeps us entertained along with his big brother. Some of Beckham's FAVORITE things to do are play peek a boo, play on the computer, clap his hands, EAT, dance, play in the bath, climb up the stairs and pretty much follow Kelan around everywhere he goes. Beckham really is the best and we wouldn't trade him for anything. We LOVE you Becky Boo!
PARTY, PARTy, PaRTy!!!
For Beckham's birthday we went to McDonalds for breakfast, Pizza Machine for dinner and had friends over for desert. It was a pretty fun birthday day and Beckham loved it all. Kelan keeps asking if Beckham can have another birthday.

Deliciousness....
The Pizza Machine with all you can drink Slurpee's and much more... Thanks Stephen and Afton!
Bella and Beckham... what a cute couple.
Beckham loves his Aunt Annie.

Happy Birthday Beckham! We LoVE you lots!

Merry Merry Christmas to YOU!!

Christmas at our house started early this year... we got all of our Christmas decorations out before Thanksgiving this year and the Christmas fun never stopped. We had so much fun with friends and family. This is such a fun time of the year.

Gingerbread houses RoUNd ONe...
We put all the kids to sleep and decorated the Gingerbread houses. It started out as a couples project and ended up just being the girls.
The boys house is the one on top of the bowls. Pretty SWeeT don't you think?
Kelan was a little surprised in the morning when he saw our gingerbread house. He didn't really care where it came from he just wanted to eat it.

Gingerbread Houses ROuND TwO...
We went to the Gingerbread display at the Trail Center. There were some pretty AmAzINg gingerbread houses.
This one was definitely the BEST! I made this one with our activity day girls.
I was pretty impressed that Kelan didn't even try to sneak one piece of candy.
This one was one of my favorites...
Playing in the gingerbread house.

Botanical Gardens
At the gardens they bring all of the trains in from outside and set them up with hundreds and hundreds of poinsettias. It is so beautiful and amazing how they make all of the tracks go in and out of all the plants.
BF(Beckham) and GF(Bella) hanging out.

Kelan loves the choo choo's

Visiting Santa at Bass Pro Shop

We made a gingerbread town... with a church, fire department, hospital, school and a Holiday Inn.
Our Sweet Gingerbread Hospital... In memory of Spence since he was gone all week doing his externship at the hospital.

Can you even see the Gingerbread house? I think Mikey had the right idea. Oh to be a kid again.
