snow bunnies...

The boys get to ride on Uncle Frank's snow mobile...

the girls stayed toasty warm in the house. :)

blogger slacker...sorry

I haven't been very good at updating the blog...obviously. :)

We got a foot of snow on my birthday (which I wasn't thrilled about). But the boys loved it. I finally broke down and took them outside for about 25 minutes that first day...then had to bribe them with hot chocolate so they'd come in. (I think Trevon would lose a finger to frost-bite before he would come inside on his own.)

all bundled up

trevon's first snow angel... (deagan's wasn't recognizable)

they were so excited to get the snow off the jeep...

pretending to 'off-road' in the snow...just like daddy used to

deagan wanted to make his own tracks in the snow...i kept telling him it would be easier to follow mine. :)

hot chocolate...as promised

Baylor snuggled in her carseat (she didn't get to play in the snow but i didn't want to leave her out)

new sport

Here is a video of Trevon and Braylon wrestling on Christmas Day. They were both having a great time...fortunately for Deagan, Trevon doesn't seem to remember and hasn't clobbered him unaware...yet!

After the 'match', we all said good job and I told Trevon to shake hands...instead of 'shaking' Braylon's hand, he started waving his own hands...it was very funny. I wish I could have gotten that on video. :)

Christmas

Christmas was really fun this year with the kids. Trevon only opened 2 presents before he was supposed to and Baylor enjoyed playing with (eating) the wrapping paper. Deagan seem a little overwhelmed with the whole thing. :) We started the morning out at our house with our immediate families and then headed to the farm with my mom's side. Here are some pictures from both get-togethers.

This is what the kids woke up to...

Good morning, sunshines!

At the farm:

the great-grandkids...Deagan, Hallie, Braylon, Alden, Trevon & Baylor

(missing: riley and briggs)

We finished out the night with some Rock Band...

the kids crashed after a long and fun day.

Christmas program

Last Sunday the boys participated in the children's program at church. Trevon sang pretty well...especially sitting next to Brooke in first service. Deagan pretty much just sat there looking around but was cute nonetheless. Here are a few pics...

Baylor didn't sing but she dressed up for the occasion. :)

Santa's Little Helper

baylor gets 'loves' from everyone...

and even Reagan got in on the action...he loves 'baby'
