This year we went to Boulder City and spent Christmas with Trevor's parents. Everyone got everything they wanted and more. Christmas eve we read the story of baby Jesus out of the bible, we then watched the Polar Express Movie, and after that grandma gave Haili, Cody, and Madison a bell of their own to hang on the tree. We then set out Christmas cookies for Santa. The next morning the kids had a blast opening up all their presents. And then we ate waffles with Shanna's new waffle maker! We then played Trevor's Wii the rest of the morning. I got a beautiful necklace and earrings from Trevor. Haili will get her kitchen from Santa when we get back home, and Cody will get a race car set also from Santa.
We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We can't wait to see what the new year brings us.

Merry Christmas
Haili preschool program
Haili had a Christmas program at school. She wanted to be a princess, so her teacher told her she could be a princess angel. She was delighted to be anything princess. They had a cute program set up where they sang all the songs they have learned so far. They also acted out the story of Mary and baby Jesus. After it was all over Santa stopped by and all the kids got to sit on his lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas. Haili wanted a Red Kitchen, which she got.

Happy Thanksgiving
This year Trevor's parents and Travis came to our apartment and had thanksgiving here. I had to work, but we made the whole meal before noon! Amazing! Shanna and I hit the stores on black friday, we didn't get up until 5 am, but we had fun and got almost all our christmas shopping done. Haili and Cody loved playing with grandma and grandpa, it's a good thing they are not too far away. We enjoyed having them over. Shanna also took our family pictures which turned out pretty good!! Sunday we headed up to Payson with Trevor's parents and had lunch before they headed back to Las Vegas.
We only have 23 days until Christmas! I am pretty excited, we will be in Las Vegas visiting for the weekend. Haili can't wait to see Madison.
