New P&S, banged up Nose and silly fun.

Not too long before school got out for the summer, Triston took a dive on the monkey bars at school and banged up his nose. Thankfully it wasn't broken. The school nurse thought it would get a lot worse than it actually did. You can see it is a little swollen, but it actually didn't bruise much.

Doesn't this picture just crack you up. Doesn't even look like Triston does it?

We got a new Point and shoot camera before we went to Germany so we were playing around with it one night before bed. I love our kids. They are so silly.

A Ride with Zack

Here is a little preview of what I am going to get up next. Right now I need to go to sleep :) We went sledding with the Hills on New Year's Day. Zack wasn't too excited about sledding down the hill. Click on the image to make it bigger :)

Christmas Morning.

 Triston with his new camera that was actually supposed to take pictures, but when we hooked it up to the computer, it deleted all of the pictures. So I made a call to "Santa" and the shop is sending a new one :)

The boys got a new tool bench with numerous tools. Zack was in heaven. He loves to build and fix things.

 Danika and her new Cabbage  Patch doll. First thing she did was start sucking on the bott

Well there you go. There is Christmas morning. We really loved being at home for Christmas morning. It was really nice not to have to pack everything up to go and to come back home too.

The rest of the update :)

Well here is the rest of the update. Well most of it ;)

 Santa at the Ward Party. We did not brave the crouds and go to either mall this year, because, well We ( the parents) didn't want to. The boys enjoyed this though. Zack asked for a big James(which he got) and Triston asked for an Optimas Prime( which he got)

The many "grumpy" faces of Zack

No he is not always grumpy, but he looks like it :)

We babysat Chloe (my sister's little girl for an evening) and Dani couldn't get enough of her. She was just so amazed with her. It was so funny. No I didn't let her pounce on her. In case you were worried Em.

It was new for us to have a baby this old around with the Christmas Tree. Once she learned how to combat crawl( her crawl of preference) we couldn't keep her away from the beads on the tree or the train. She loved to make it wreck!

Christmas Cookies! The boys love to bake so I figured we would do it this year. We were right down to the wire. We didn't have time to bake the cookies, so I bought some that were not frosted at the bakery and then we made the frosting and they went to town. I don't know that either one of them will get the hang of sprinkles. The cookies always end up with a mound of sprinkles.

For Christmas Eve we went up to Mark and Camille's (Chris' sister). We ate some yummy soup in soup bowls (after our crock pot of tomato soup spilled in the car) and then played games. Thanks guys for having us up.

This was Danika's Christmas eve outfit. Had to get a picture of the bum. Cute eh!

Just a cute Daddy Daughter moment.:)

 Here we are up to Christmas eve. More to come . . .
