New years 2018!

We were at little out of steam for the new year. We watched a lot of TV, did 2 puzzles, had breakfast burritos for dinner,  Jer had issues with the microwave:), and called it a night at 10:30. Happy New year! Starting 2018 off right with a little T-25 as a family. 

Panda Party!

I was worried being after christmas that we wouldn't have a good turn out for Lacey's party, but everyone that was invited came. We had a fun time coloring, playing pin the nose on the panda, don't drop the baby panda, duck duck goose, and ended with a donut eating contest. I failed to get a picture of the group who came to the party. 

Lacey turns 4!

So glad this little Foofie is in our family! Tina, Tina what's for dina...she is the boss, and has her dad wrapped around her little finger, is a ham and likes to be in the spotlight, loves to put on gymnastics shows and lives in her gymnastics clothes, has some great facial expressions and is quite the story teller, loves to pet any dog that will let her, loves preschool and is a little social bug, is a sass and is super determined, if you tell her no she will find a way to do it herself, loves to play games and tell you exactly what to say and how to play it, loves to tell her dad "you say this....." and then she will say her part, calls her dad "papa", loves to dress herself and usually looks a little like Punky Brewster, is very picky about how I do her hair and hates piggies:( wants to be one of the big kids and is growing up WAY to fast, loves to read and pretends to read books to you, always asking what words mean, loves to play nanny nanny boo boo, is an extremely poor sport when it come to playing any family games, hides when she is doing or eating things she not supposed to, always stills my diet coke, is the firs to ask to go to bed, willingly gives her dinner away to get to dessert, and we adore and love her to pieces! 

Foofies B-day!

We try to make the most of Lacey's birthday even though it fall right after Christmas. Again she was spoiled by the grandparents. 

Our gift was ear piercing. She was super dramatic until I gave her a sucker-then all smiles about her new earrings! 

Chick-fil-a and cupcakes to round out the day! She has her party this weekend. Happy birthday foofie bear! 

Christmas 2017!

Christmas was great this year! I felt like crap, but none of the kids were sick so I'll take it as a win. They were warned not to come into our room till 8, they made ti to about 7:45. We took our time opening presents and enjoyed the morning. Our kids were spoiled by grandparents and aunts(Channy). Our gift this year was a cruise which we are headed to the Bahamas in January..Wahoo!! Everything else was pretty simple...including the clean up since we only had the tree and lights:)   

The rest of the day was spent in PJ's enjoying the toys and goodies of Christmas! The only thing that we were missing was the snow. 

Probably my all time favorite picture of the day, taken by Lacey when she told dad to make a crazy face! 

I love this little crew of mine and love this time of year to be close and spend some good quality time together! 

Merry Merry Christmas! 

Christmas Eve 2017!

I wish that Christmas eve could be on Sunday every year. It was so nice to be at church and to remember the true meaning of Christmas. The music was beautiful and the spirit was strong. So grateful for my Savior and for my little family that he has blessed me with! 

This one couldn't leave the presents alone! They were rearranged several times! 

Christmas PJ's, blankets and robes this year! 

Ended the night with Elf, cookies, and hot chocolate! I love being close to family, but I also love that while living away  we have no where to be and no schedule to keep. We get to have our own traditions and get to spend time just our little family. 

Ornaments, parties, puzzles, and Bowling!

Lacey had a gingerbread party at school and I loved being in class with her! 

Christmas break has been full of puzzles, movies, troll hunter, beast master, and park dates while the weather is still good. We even made it over the the base for some bowling! 

We finally got around to making our ornaments!
