New Years Eve snowfall!!

We got HIT with snow over New Years Eve weekend and it was Sooo much fun! The kids wanted to go out the first day even though it was still snowing really hard. We were drenched when we got done. We made snow angels, threw snowballs, ate snow, played in the car, chased Chiga and so many other things and THEN...Dad got out the four-wheeler! YAHOO. We tied a tube onto the back of it and off we went. Anthony wasn't at all sure about it at first, but quickly decided it was super fun. He wanted to do it all by himself! We went back behind some of the neighbors houses into an empty field and went crazy. I was COVERED in snow! Then we had to go down to the neighbors and see if they wanted to play too. The first day we stayed out there for about 2 and 1/2 hours, the second day about 2. We of course had to come in after we played and have hot chocolate! SO much fun!
Jake made a fort for him and for Anthony and they had snowball fights!
Lydia even joined in on the fun the second day, when it wasn't snowing so bad! She was all smiles the WHOLE time!

I LOVE having kids...it brings out the kid in me! They bring so much joy!

Wrestling boy...

Do you think this kid is excited to wrestle soon? He was so excited when I took the Christmas decorations down because that means it is after Christmas and we had been telling him he gets to wrestle his size kids after Christmas! Jake's brainwashing must be working! Keep watching for 'real' wrestling pictures to come soon!

Christmas 2009...

Christmas was so magical this year. I love having kids to help bring the Magic of Christmas into our home. Christmas Eve was spent at Grandma and Grandpa Williams and was a nice quiet evening. When we got home the kids went to bed and the elves started working! Jake put together this wonderful kitchen that Santa left for the kids and I put together the morning's breakfast. We were done early enough to even watch a movie! It was a great Christmas Eve! The kids woke up and wanted to see what Santa had brought and so they ran downstairs. Anthony was so excited, he came back upstairs to tell us there was a new kitchen for him! Jenna just stayed to play and see what was in her stocking.

They were both so excited with the contents of the stocking too! Jenna unwrapped the little chocolate Santa's that were in there like they were presents. She didn't even end up eating them...cutie!

After they played with their kitchen for awhile, they decided they wanted to open their presents. Anthony got a hunting toy set, WRESTLING shoes and a subscription to Hidden Pictures. Jenna got a baby doll set with stroller and all, shoes with kittens on them and a puzzle book. Lydia got a ride-a-long, a new outfit and a few Baby Einstein books! They were all excited with their presents. Lydia liked the wrapping paper the most! All Anthony wanted was wrestling shoes so he was SUPER happy. He had to put them on immediately and wore them just about the WHOLE weekend.

After we opened all the presents, had a fabulous breakfast and got ready for the day we headed to Logan. We had a great time there eating, playing with cousins and catching up with family! I LOVE the holidays!!
