Greg celebrated his 32nd birthday this month and we had a quiet party at home for him. The boys helped me decorate the cake and it got a little out of control with sprinkles, but it was a fun.
We have been dumped on lately with a ton of snow and the boys have been living high and enjoying every flake. I feel like I'm constantly pulling on snow pants and boots and gloves, then taking them off just a little while later. Then do it all over when they're ready to go out again. We enjoyed our first snow day since living in Utah which canceled school. And apparently, that just doesn't happen around here. This was a first cancellation in many years. So we made the most of it and went sledding and played in the snow all day. It took Greg and me over 2 hours to shovel out our driveway and sidewalk. Then we decided to be kind to the mail man and spent another chunk of time clearing out the street right in front of our mailbox. Santa forgot to bring us a snow blower this year. Maybe next...
We had a wonderful Christmas with Greg's family in Provo. We all met at the condo there and brought Christmas with us. Lots of fun and lots of family to hang out with!
Silly boys come up with silly things when they're bored and have access to scissors and paper.
When our kids were babies, we bundled them up in a blanket burrito and it helped them stay asleep all night long. I was feeling sad that David is no longer my baby, so the other day I bundled him up the way we used to. He thought it was so hilarious. The older boys immediately wanted to be "burrito-ed" as well.
Greg's rather ugly birthday cake..
The day school was canceled. Over a foot of snow and it snowed all day!
Christmas morning!
David is obsessed with Garbage Trucks. The all knowing Santa wisely brought him two. Who needs one when you can have two, right?
Silly bands are a very popular item with the younger set these days. But I've heard rumors that more and more schools are banning them. I can see why. But Santa couldn't resist Star Wars Silly Bands. But they came with a condition...that the boys would not take them to school.
I gave Greg a Kindle this year...hopefully he'll share it with me ;)
Grandma brought treats for the boys to decorate.
Have you ever seen a cuter kid than this??

Fun birthday cake! My girls love sprinkles, too. We have a few pictures of rolled up little girls. We call them tacos. Don't know why. Burritos fits better. I just recently purchased the song "Love Changes Everything." Gave me memories of you. Singing it in your van, not necessarily that I was in love with you.
But I do love you.
