Martian Book

Tanner got a Martian book from Grandma & Grandpa N. for Christmas, and it is his favorite book in the entire world. He has chosen it as his bedtime story every night since Christmas (literally) and he now has it 95% memorized. Even Brooklynn has parts of it memorized. They really get into it every time Josh reads it to them. It's super cute!

Christmas 2015

Christmas this year was a blast! It was a little chaotic, so I didn't get the chance to take pictures of everything I wanted to, but here are the few that I took. When the kids woke up, they went downstairs to see what Santa brought them. He brought Tanner a Hot Wheels race track, and he brought Brooklynn a set of food and dishes, as well as a high chair to feed her baby doll in. Josh set up Tanner's super awesome race track, which he totally loves. I just realized I don't have any pictures of the finished product, but I'll get a picture soon. 

Thanks to all who gave us gifts this year! We loved all of them and are so grateful for your generosity. Our kids had a blast playing and having fun together all day long. It was a wonderful Christmas this year.

Christmas Week

 Brooklynn's chocolate face- in honor of Christmas week! (AKA Junk Food Week)

 December 23rd seemed like a good day for hot chocolate stirred up with candy canes!

This week, I finally attempted to tie up Brookie's hair in piggy tails. She looks so cute with her hair done! She knows she's a pretty princess.

Christmas Clothes

Here are the kids' Christmas church clothes. It as a wonderful Sunday. During the sacrament meeting Christmas program, when the primary kids went up to sing, Tanner just smiled up there the entire time while all the other kids sang. And then we had a linger-longer after church, during which the kids went to the treat table at least 5 times and brought back cupcakes, brownies, and donuts. Way more than we needed. Brooklynn licked all the icing off her cupcake and then handed the rest to me. She did this at least twice. And Tanner threw up onto a plate. There is never a dull moment with these little ones. 

BYU Spirit

Yes, I know we lost on Saturday... but it was only by 1 point, so it wasn't that embarrassing! Here is Travis showing his school spirit. He already knows where he wants to go to school, and who knows? Maybe he'll be a football player! He sure looks like one.
