Merry Be-lated Christmas!!

For all of those who I regretfully forgot to send out a Christmas Greeting card... I will post our greeting card picture for this year...

BUT... I think it's never to late to say, Merry Be-lated Christmas... I generally use the term Merry Christmas through out the year... Santa came to our house and brought everything you could possibly imagine... I hope that I can feel the Happiness of my children, on Christmas morning, all through the year... what a wonderful morning it was...

Christmas Luminary

Every year at my Dad and sister's cemetary, they have an annual Christmas Luminary. It is so beautiful. They put a sack with a candle on all of the graves, and line the streets, and you drive through at night with your lights off... It is so peaceful and so beautiful... It looks like a sea of floating gold... Pictures don't do Justice.. Here are a couple I snapped with my professional camera phone ;)

The fun of Christmas...

During our Christmas break... I hung out with my amazing friends... We did so many things to keep ourselves busy... Thank you to Erin, Dez, Emery, Trisha and many family members... you made my Christmas break Merry and Bright... Here are some pics of a couple things we did... There may be more... be prepared

Looking back 2 weeks

I have been off work for past 2 weeks for the Holiday season, which meant my kids were off, so I had no time to check my e-mail, check facebook, post blogs, or even read others' blogs... I didn't even check KSL.com, which completes my day when I read about the news.... It was a long and wonderful 2 weeks off... don't get me wrong, I really started to miss my schedule and starting loosing track of which day it was... All in all... it's GREAT to be back at work and AWESOME to have my kids back at school... The pictures I will post will be random ones from Christmas Eve and Christmas day... Enjoy!! Happy New Year!!

*pictures are Ken's long hair (we cut 8 inches off before New Year's Eve) and a picture of Santa's cookies he didn't finish... We leave Dr. Pepper our for Santa instead of milk :)

Look who came into my office....

I was running to go grab ice for our party at the office, when I heard the jingling of bells... I silently thought... "Is Santa here?" and suprise suprise!! In walked Santa!! He even had a district ID badge on... I snapped a picture of him, and went on my way to get the ice. After I returned, there was no Santa in sight! I asked everyone, where did Santa go?? They all laughed and thought I was crazy... Luckily I had a picture to share and proof I wasn't insane... Guess Santa went into the wrong building... He meant to go next door. What a cute Santa he was though :)

It's beginning to look a lot like....

This Elf has been busy... I had my fellow elf friend come and help me make all these flower hair clips to give to the good little girls on my list. They turned out Darling!! Thank you Elf Cole... We need to make more... The people here at work want some!! Mass production again tonight??

Gingerbread Men (and girls)

We decorated Gingerbread Men... It was so much fun!! I love my mom.... She had been telling my kids all day that when I got home from work we would decorate them. They were so excited when I walked in the door. Kelson made all of his men, santa's helpers... and Ken made her's all girls that were "so nice and so cute" Brayden made one and was back to watching his game on t.v. We started to build a Gingerbread house but ran out of icing (licked the bowl a little much?)
