Here is our list, in no particular order: *Festival of Trees*Sledding*Make paper snowflakes to hang around the house*Watch Christmas devotional with hot chocolate and popcorn (to help them…

My favorite decoration for Christmas is the Nativity Scene. The boys were pretty stoked as well. I couldn’t believe how thrilled they were to see baby Jesus. While putting them up I told them the story. They were all ears. I got really emotional when we put baby Jesus on. Dillon also did a family…

Okay, I didn’t take any pictures of the first snowfall, basically I refused to acknowledge that it snowed in September. So we’ll just pretend it never happened:). This to me was just the right time to get some snow for the holidays, and I hope there is more to come. We went outside in the…

I love putting up a tree, and next year we hope to start a tradition like my family used to do and go pick out a real tree together, or even better go hike a mountain and chop it down ourselves! It’s just too easy to use this artificial one when it’s FREE:). I’d like…

That’s a shocker huh? What would I blog about without my cute kiddo’s? I just thought these pictures were so cute for what they go along with. Carson dressed up on Sunday and came down very excited because he was dressed just like President Hinckley:). Devon loves to play the piano so much. His usual…

Unfortunately, Carson’s favorite place to hang out in the bathroom when we brush teeth and get ready for baths is right by the toilet. Devon often surprises me by hopping into the sink when I’m least suspecting (like when I’m not around and then has to scream for help to get out). Of course Carson…
