We got to go to Blanding for 8 days over the Christmas break. It was lots of fun, Radley had fun with his cousins, but was wishing there was at least one other boy by the end of our stay. Here's some pics, hope everyone had a great Holiday season!



Christmas morning was fun, we opened presents at my moms house first with Storm and the girls and Stevie and Nate, then went to my Dads and then spent the rest of the day eating and partying. Christofer and I are putting a new bathroom in our basement and we had some 2X4's left over, so we decided to make Radley some blocks for Christmas. He got way too many presents, thanks everyone for all the gifts! I got a Kitchen Aid and a new volleyball among other things, Christofer got laser tag guns and you should have seen him playing with those the rest of the week with anyone he could get to play. He was diving behind couches and rolling across the floor..boys really never grow up! I'm always sad when Christmas is over and we have to wait another year!
I don't have any pictures of New Year's Eve, we spent the night with Christofer's cousins and their kids. We played tons of games and won lots of cool prizes. I thought Radley would fall asleep before midnight, but there was so much action he totally made it to the New Year wide awake. New Year's Eve is Christofer's bday, he says that everyone is partying for him, but I think he secretly gets sad because his big day kinda gets lost in the mix. He did get the bball shoes he's been wanting for 12 years, they finally remade the ones he had in High School that he loved, the 1996 Jason Kids, so he was pretty stoked. Chris is an awesome husband and father, he does so much for us and keeps us laughing and entertained. Love you babe! %5B1%5D.jpg)

There was so much snow in Blanding over the break, so we took advantage and had some fun. My Dad's family all went tubing at the 4th, Letha was hillarious, she was the most daring, it was funny. There was a huge snowman around the corner from my mom's house, it had shovels for arms and a hat, but had melted a little by the time we got our picture.
Radley had fun with his cousins, he LOVED Rylee's sunglasses...guess I know what I need to get him soon.


On Christmas Eve we watched the Christmas video, cartoon form of course, then we tried to get the kids to dress-up in a little manger scene. This is the best we could get, but it's still way cute. Then we went over to my Dad's for that party and for the opening of our name exchange.


I almost forgot this pic of Radley and Santa...he wasn't totally excited about Santa, but he never cried and as soon as Santa busted out the candy cane, Radley decided they could hang out.

I'm so glad you guys came home, it was a blast. I definitely think we should rematch in volleyball the next time you come down! Cute pictures!
Dev he is SO cute as a shepherd! Did you see Jamesons shepherd pics too on my blog? Looks like you had a good holiday season. I love those blocks!
I'm impressed that Radley didn't cry on Santa's lap! Kids his age usually hate Santa! Looks like you guys had a fun visit in Blanding! That huge snowman was still there when I was in Blanding and I made my mom stop the car so I could get a picture of it with my cell phone! Christopher sounds alot like my husband.....he gets excited about about old school shoes he wore in high school and Xbox games.:) You're right, they never really do grow up.:)
I love the idea of making blocks...i'll probably never do it but still:) I'm glad I got to see you Dev, if only for a sec! Rad is so dang cute!! I can't wait to see baby #2!!!!

I'm sad that we didn't get to be in Blanding to hang out with you guys. It looks like you guys had a good time and Radley is getting so big and somehow he keeps getting cuter.
