This Christmas brought some changes, great weather for us and fun times with family. We had to changed some traditions because my grandmother has to now live in an assisted living home. We usually have had Christmas at her house and everyone stayed the night. Last year Ben and I slept under her small kitchen table on a blow up bed that deflated in the middle of the night. The kids all had trouble sleeping and then to top it off, Brent came and threw up all over me about 4 in the morning. Honestly, I have great memories there and it is always different to change, but it worked out to be a great Christmas and we still got to spend time with our family. The kids loved the snow and we were able to play in it for several weeks.
This picture is before we went to a basketball game here in town. The kids had a really good time. Brent loved the nachos and concession stand, Kaylee loved the cheerleaders and Garrett, Ben and I loved the game itself. It was alot of fun.


Our family from Texas always comes for New Years. We love it when they visit.

All Kaylee wanted from Santa was a cheer leading outfit. Unfortunately it is already to small, but she wears it anyways

Garrett was just happy to get a ball for Christmas. He lives by them. Sometimes sleeps with them and always talks about them. It makes me so happy....
