~STOCKING STUFFERS~
as tradition Santa always leaves a few essentials outside of the stockings for the kids to initially see.
 Jarom and Spencer
Josh and Bre
Ellie and Brookie, the kids got to dig into their stockings first thing at YEP~ 3:00am, no kidding.  We sent them back to bed until 6:00am after them taking a peek. They were instructed not to open any gifts from Santa until after church since we had 9 am church, we ended up letting them open their one gift from the parents before we left for church since everyone was up and ready so early.
Heres some of our Christmas Morning and Day Candids. Oh waht a fun day!  We had a very nice Christmas Day spent right where we wanted to be, early morning church Sacrament service celebrating the birth of our Savior with a nice musical Christmas program then back to the comfort of our own home with just us and the kids.  The joy that the gift of family in life is unmeasurable, the blessings are eternal...family is truly everything!

B-day PARTY ARMY style.

 Brooklynne enjoying herself inbetween Taylor and Gabby two of our neighbor girls that adore Brooklynne.
 Josh in the yellow and Spencer in red, both getting themselves a bit of pizza- they looked quite cute in these army hats.
A very fitting cake for the b-day boy sporting his camo for his special day. Josh's friend and our neighbor Mitchell had his 5th b-day party a week before Christmas at the Super Jump down the street.  He had a fun army theme, the three younger kids had a good time at his party.
