New ornaments

Every year we get our kids ornaments that tells a little bit about them. It is always fun coming up with ideas and seeing what input they have as well.

Here are the ones for 2012:

If you know my kids at all, you will have figured out that Jacob has the fly fishing one, Evan and Courtney have the Minecraft Creeper ones, and Dillon is my chocoholic.

Christmas Cuties

My little Christmas Cuties... Some of the best gifts I could have ever asked for!

Thanksgiving 2012

We spent this Thanksgiving over in Utah with Brian's whole family, including LOTS of cousins! Here are a few of my favorite pics from the week. Lots of fun memories were made and Todd & Heather did a great job with all the activities! 

Jacob turns 14

Jacob is 14 and such a great kid! We drove to Utah the day before his birthday, so he opened some of his gifts at home and then celebrated the actual day with his cousins. He requested Reese's Peanut butter cupcakes for his dessert and they were pretty tasty! (One of our family's favorites!) Jacob is always cracking me up with his funny sense of humor. He is a great big brother too! Love this kid!

4th grade showcase

Courtney had her 4th grade showcase and did a wonderful job! She sang some cute songs and even played the xylophone too! What a fun evening!
