DAY 7

* I love my husband because he works so hard to support our family, and especially in these times we are so blessed to have all that we have!!

* I love Caleb because the roles in our house have switched, every night Quinn put Caleb to bed and I put Peyton to bed, well she has become a Daddy's girl so I have been putting Caleb to bed now and every night we play a little game of Basketball and then I listen to him read and then I cuddle with him in his bed and scratch his back and then he scratches my arm (which I love soooo much and my husband gets a little tired of doing it all the time for me). So I am training him young to treat his wife good:)

* I love Peyton because she loves all things girly. Today after the bath we had a toe and finger nail painting party and then went shopping she managed to love every pretty dress or shirt in the mall, her Dad is so screwed:)!!

DAY 6

*I love my husband because he let's me throw all the parties I want and does not ever question why I have to spend money on parties because he knows how much I love to do them!!

* I love Caleb because he LOVES being a helper with babies. This kid LOVES babies, our friends were over here with all their babies and all he wanted to do is play with them.

*I love Peyton because she always loves to help me decorate for these parties we might have a little party planner in the near future!!

And last but not least WAY TO GO PACKERS!!
We had our annual SuperBowl party with some friends tonight.
Quinn went to a Green Bay/Minnesota Game earlier this year and we have become fans since then, so it was fun to see them win tonight!!

DAY 5

I love that this little girl loves anything you tell her to love!! Like her Dad has hammered liking the Longhorns into her and now they are her favorite team. Hook em' Horns!!
Same with this kid, he is in love with everything his Dad loves. From dirt biking, sports,watching sports. He sees anything on T.V. he immediately wants to go do it with his Dad. A couple of weeks ago Quinn took him to Snowmobiling Cross it was on a FREEZING night and that kid wanted to stay until the very end of it, he could have cared how cold it was!!
I love that tonight Caleb had a Birthday Party and I had a girl's get together. So Peyton and Quinn had a Daddy Daughter night and I came home to find them in the Movie theater watching Aladdin.

CHRISTMAS EVE

We went down to Temple Square for Christmas Eve this year. It was something new we usually go earlier but never made it down there so only half of Quinn's family was going to be with us so we went down there. It was pretty crowded and they had all the visitors centers closed so there was NO where to get warm so that was a bummer!! After we headed up to his parents house had some Hot Chocolate, opened jammies, and headed home so the Big Man could pay us a visit!! Temple square lights have to be some of the prettiest lights around, I wonder what it would cost to do my house like their lights :)?
Here is the "cute" family
my daughter was a little whiney that night so look at her lovely face
Seriously so pretty!!
Here is the cousins that came
Peyton (with her lovely face again), Brooklyn, Connor, Taylor and Caleb
By this point Caleb ditched us to be with Pops and G-ma
But I love the pond with the temple in the back so I was going to get a picture no kid, or not

SHE DID IT!!

Our neighborhood did a little Christmas get together in someones garage and instead of neighbor gifts you donated new toys to a children's shelter. Well as you saw before our last encounter with Santa did not go so well. So her mean Dad informed her that she was on the bad list and the way to get off that list was to sit on Santa's lap. So low and behold the jolly old man made an appereance at the party. She was actually really excited to sit on his lap and then I could not get her off his lap I think she talked to him for 5 min and then she asked if she could go sit on his lap again after she had already told him her whole list!! I am so PROUD of her and sure glad she made it back onto the "good" list, she made us call everyone after to let them know she was on the "good" list!! Caleb of course is not afraid of him and jumps right up on his lap and gave him his list as well.

Here is the "good" girl sitting on Santa's lap

NEIGHBOR HOOD X-MAS PARTY

We hosted a Christmas party this year with all our neighbors, we seriously have the BEST neighbors EVER!! I can never move because I love them all so much and we have ENDLESS supply of friends for my kids!! We did the typical eat, did white elephant gifts (some to dirty and funny to show pictures), then Taryn did a game where we split up into teams and had to guess what Christmas movie they were acting out!! It was such a great night!!

The tables all set up
Thanks to Taryn who let me borrow so much stuff and helped me make all the mittens for the utensils!!
