snoopy!!

lex and elaina are big fan's of charlie brown.  we got the charlie brown christmas, halloween, and thanksgiving movies this year.  so when i found this we had to get it.

christmas lights!!

hannah and i decided we were going to go see Christmas lights.  so we went to layton park and they had a cool display there we walked around to see.   

this is chris holding charlie, hannah, lex, elaina, and henry.  we love these guys  :) 

i held allison and she kept whispering "wow".  She couldn't take her eyes off even for a second.  it was fun to watch all the kids.  i love all these ages.  i'll be sad when this is over and they grow up. 

hannah and family was done before we were seeing the lights so we headed down to salt lake to see the lights at temple square.  we had a great time hanging out and seeing the lights.  this was on the way out.  i didn't take many pictures because i was just enjoying being with the kids, watching the snow fall, and the lights.  it was so much fun.

lex showing his dance moves at temple square.

elaina's preschool christmas preformance

elaina's class did a very quick christmas program singing 2 songs and saying a poem they learned.  the first song was realllly long but it was "must be santa."  very cute but i can't get it on here.  they did a good job.  elaina loves her teacher miss kate.  she's the best!!  left to right in this picture it's paxton, kolton, elaina, gavin,megan, and greyson.

allisons' 1st birthday!!

                                        allison and elaina partying it up!!

this is one she opened and she didn't like it at all.  still doesn't like it.

this was her fav. toy.  she also got clothes and when she opened them up she had to love each one.  every morning when i get her clothes out so she can get dressed she just giggles because she's so excited to try on a new outfit.  lol..  lex and elaina....  they were having a hard time being good party guests at ally's party.  they were crying and whining pretty much teh whole time.  wouldn't let ally play with her toys and so they had a good talking to for a while.  then they were only a little bit better.  *sigh*  i didn't put on all the videos of them behaving badly. 

her cake that the kids designed.

very happy little girl  :)

lex's kindergarten christmas party

this is lex's class that i got to spent the day with when they had their christmas party.  They got the wear their PJ's to school and have santa visit their classroom.  it was really fun for lex.  his teacher's name is ms. conrad.  she's so great with lex. 

doing a coloring project and they also did a craft, watch "how the grinch stole christmas" and ate cookies while i read them stories.

they also played bingo.  but as you can see most of the kids were watching the movie instead.  :)
