Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas. Jayden was so much fun. She counted down days by "wake ups" so every morning she would come in and say 4 more wake ups, 2 more wake ups and so on. It was so fun to share her excitement. Gavin was just as fun. Of course he doesn't understand Santa yet, but he sure can unwrap a present with the best of them. We are grateful to be able to share the season with our family and friends. We are so blessed in so many ways and count our blessings every day. It is wonderful to feel the "spirit" this time of year and only hope it can last not just in the month of December. We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you all the best in the new year!




The Lights





We braved the cold and took the kids to the lights. Of course, I froze but the kids had fun. ( I'm told that's what matters. brrrrr )

Happy Birthday Jayden


Jayden turned 5 December first. She still has got the attitude and the drama factor but she definately has a sweet side too. I love her so much. My only wish is that she had turned out more like me instead of her father. UGH!


Jayden begged to have a barbie cake and I have a really hard time buying a pre-made cake that costs 20 to 30 bucks that doesn't even taste good. Soooo I had to make my own. It definately isn't as cute as the store makes but she absolutely loved it.



We went to Classic Fun Center for her birthday. Jayden, Connor, and Berkley had a blast riding scooters and playing on the bouncy toys. It was a blast!
