JaNuArY...

We are still ALIVE!! Here are some things that we did in January!!

My darling cousin, Courtney had a lil baby boy in December. He is such a cute lil man!! Congrats Court and Chris
My little brother Sean and his wife, Danielle had a little baby in January. It is always so fun to welcome a new baby to the family.

Here are the kids trying to wait patiently- it was a little harder than I thought it would be. The kids were going crazy in the little waiting room. Good thing we found a wheel chair to occupy their time.

Here is my cute little brother, Clayt, holding Carter for the first time.

Haisy even wanted in on the action. She looks so BIG!! Halle didn't want to hold the baby- I think she was a little nervous.

JaNuArY!! (continued)

My lil sis getting ready for her Preference date!! I did her hair and makeup so I guess that makes me special cuz she looks so good!!

We had to get a photo of all the grandkids together, minus the brand new baby still in the hospital. They sure love their Aunt Lexi:)

Here she is with some of her girl friends. I just LOVE her dress. It totally makes me want to go to a dance again:)

JaNuArY!! (continued)

We ran the St. George Half Marathon. Wish it would have been a little bit warmer, but I was so grateful it didn't rain or snow on us. Brad did such a good job, he didn't even train for it. Way to go Honey:)

Brad's work did a site for a helicopter company and they took them on a ride.

They even let the guys drive on:) Lucky Boys!!

Cabin:)

A few weeks ago when most of Brad's family was in town we went to the cabin!! It was so much fun, crowded (as you can tell from all the people in this picture) but FUN!!

I love this pic of Brad and Haisley:)

Halle loved riding on the SNOWMOBILES

We even had Brad take Haisley for a ride- she didn't love it as much as Halle did:(

Hal even enjoyed laying in the snow and making snow angels!!

Here are all the LADIES!! My sister-in laws and mother-in-law: Sara, Me, AnnaLisa, Heather, Becky, and Bonnie

An engagement picture:)

I think most of all Halle enjoyed sledding ALL BY HERSELF!!

Me and the cute Haisy- bug

The Sledding Hill

The GIRLIES!!

Isn't she so CUTE?!!!!

ChRiStMaS!!

Christmas Eve the girls got to open their P.J's!!

'Lil Miss Hal enjoyed opening all her presents as well as her sisters!! She really got into the whole Christmas thing this year. Holidays are so much more fun when you have kids!!

Haisley was being too slow- Halle needed to help her out. What are sisters for anyways?

The girlies got a playhouse from Santa- boy were they excited when they saw it for the first time!!

Christmas Outfits

Daddy and his girls at the Carter's Christmas Party.
We had so much fun this year during Christmas. We spent A LOT of time with family and did some really fun things. I was reminded how much fun GIVING to others really is. I hope that next year we will be able to recognize more people that are in need and help them out. This is the season to remember Christ, I pray that I can remember Him more throughout the year!! Merry Christmas:)

Hillam Christmas Party

Acting out the nativity. Aren't the little angels so cute:)

Haisley wasn't so sure about Santa this year- well actually she totally FrEaKeD out!! Good thing her Dad was there to save her and help her get her present.

Santa brought her a new baby doll, it's almost as big as she is.

I was worried about what Halle would do since every time I asked her if she wanted to sit on Santa's lap she would say, "When I get bigger I will." When her name was called she just went up to him and sat on his lap. WaY To Go HaLlE!!

Santa brought her a new Barbie doll that walks dogs- so cool:)

Temple Square

We try to make it to Temple Square every Christmas to see the lights. We bundled the kiddos up and took them to see all the pretty lights:) This year was no exception to the freezing weather!!

There were a million people here this night and to make things worse- they close all the buildings at 9:00 pm so we were unable to see the Christus (or how ever you spell it).

We were grateful that the Wilde's came with us:) It makes everything more fun when friends are there to share it with you. Poor Brea was so tired she slept through the whole thing.
