Christmas Fun!!!

Chris and Patti came to visit us for Christmas this year and we had a blast!

Patti and I worked on a project and the boys were always wanting her attention no matter what she was up to.
We went down to temple square to see the lights

This is where we took our picture 7 years ago when we were dating....what can I say I still love him!

The temple looked gorgeous

Cam LOVED Christmas morning and all the stuff he got

What's a Christmas without Chris getting a little USC stuff?!?!

Coop loved the new toys after we got him something to eat (that was his main goal that morning....eating)

Santa brought Cam a rescue firehouse/police house and he couldn't stop playing with it.

Coop and his new puppy (this will have to do until we finally get the real thing)

Chris enjoyed a little rest over his break

Maggie made pies for Christmas and we all enjoyed them!

Thanks Patti and Chris for coming to visit! It was awesome!!! We love you!

Poppy and Pop Pop...

Chris's parents are here for Christmas!!! We have been doing all kinds of things and having a blast but tonight was the best for the boys because they took them to build a bear!

Coop picked out a polar bear and named it Dee-dee
Cam got a puppy with the matching baby one and named it Scrufty. Thanks Poppy and Pop Pop!!! More vacation pics to come!!!

Family Pics...

We had our family pictures taken a few weeks ago because I won a free session with Highlite Photography!!! Here are 3 of the best ones.

Lights at the Zoo...

Tonight we went with our friends to the Zoo to see the lights. They were pretty cool but it was super cold! Cooper kept chanting...burr burr burr. Yeah we got the idea!

Picture Galore...

I know I have been M-I-A in the blogging world but 'tis the season, right? Here is a little update of what's been going on lately.

We had a fake Christmas tree that was up and decorated this year but in the middle of the night it fell over and bent the frame so...we got our first real tree!!! I don't know who was more excited me or Chris! There's nothing like a real tree in the house!
That's right....my sister Leca has done it again!!! She has found another "special" squirrel item and mailed it to me. Yes I still hate squirrels and now I get to sleep with them too!!! Thanks Lec!

Coop LOVES to be in the kitchen with me so he has taken this little step stool as his own spot for snacks and his new found love....coloring!

Here are some of the necklaces that we made...

This is one of the things I made for the boutique. It's a car caddy with pockets and signs for match box size cars

Here's the end result!

The boys LOVED that we moved all the furniture out for the boutique because it was like a permanent picnic!

Cam and his girlfriend Ash at the mall on the train ride. They are SO cute together!

The Heatons had their family Christmas party and invited us to come over too! We had a blast! Cam got to decorate his own gingerbread house and see all their animals! Thanks for always including us in everything!

Cooper couldn't get enough of the dogs at Kate's house so he kept going upstairs to sneak a peek under her bedroom door!

Coop doesn't believe in sleeping at night any more so he is tired all the time!!! He just couldn't make it all the way home from the grocery store for a nap!

I came in to see how Chris was doing getting Coop dressed for church and Chris thought he should just wear his under shirt and vest....nasty!!!
Here he is after a little Mommy intervention
Ash and her family came over last night for family night. Cam and she made a ginger bread train together. So that's it for now...the boutique is over and this week is all about fun! Chris and Patti come Saturday too! We are so excited!

If you've been wondering why the blog has been soo distant, check this out!

Cassie has been working really hard with her sister and a whole bunch of her friends to put on a special boutique at the house this Saturday. We are REALLY hoping for a good turnout, so if you live in Utah or know someone who does, spread the word!

We've even created a blog to give a sneak preview of all the products from various sellers.

Did I mention you should tell everyone you know? THANKS!
