I'm finally posting Christmas pictures, along with a few others. We had such a fun Christmas season and we felt very blessed as we contemplated this past year. We didn't get Christmas cards out or even a Christmas e-mail, but we have high hopes for next year. We enjoyed all the updates we received from others, so a huge thanks if you sent us a letter or an update. Enjoy the pictures and if you make it though this post, check out the following post for pictures from our New York trip!

Our HOA had a Christmas party where the kids came in pajamas and Santa was there. Parker loved sitting on Santa's lap and talking to him . . . Kambri, not so much.


It was so fun to have Dan and Kathryn (Dave's brother and wife who are in Wisconsin for Dental School) back for the holidays . . . a week before Christmas we had a fun dinner and J & J's house and then we made gingerbread houses.
We went to my parents' house in Idaho and stopped in Malad on the way to visit Dave's grandparents. Dave's grandpa loves to hold babies and Kambri was more than happy to sit on his lap for the entire visit. We always love to stop in Malad.

We made it to my parent's house on Christmas Eve. Lukas and Parker got all bundled up to leave food for the Reindeers outside.
Parker loved throwing the "food" out on the lawn . . . and I'm sure my dad loved his lawn covered with sparkles.
Here we are in front of the Christmas tree . . . ready for the kids to go to bed!
Parker and Lukas both got these fun horses for Christmas. They were in heaven! My mom did a great job finding these for us!

Our only regret is that we didn't get one for my dad.

Kambri loved her little glow-worm . . she was all smiles sitting on my mom's lap and playing with her new toy . . . although the wrapping paper later seemed to keep her attention for longer.
When we got back from Idaho, we took Parker and his cousin Alyssa sledding. So fun!
Kambri did great staying bundled up while we were sledding down the hill.

Husband of many talents . . . he can hold two kids while one of them is drinking a bottle.

Finally, here is a random picture of Parker licking a lemon. We were putting lemon juice on our dinner the other night and he apparently loves the taste of lemons . . . we weren't surprised, really.

I loved Christmas this year!! We had such a great time with you all. And you made me really excited to some day go to New York City! I will have to tell Bry to add it to my wish list :)
We got the same horse for Teddy! I waited forever for it to go on sale and it finally did before christmas! She LOVES it! She will put her hand in the mouth and pretends it bites her so we have to kiss it better. I love that it makes sounds!! Sounds like you had a great Christmas!
Candace,I haven't been reading blogs much lately so today I had fun catching up a bit and looking at all of your pictures. Kambri is such a cutie! You must be having some serious fun with your two kids right now and staying very busy. :)
