Busy, busy!

Wow!  I have said it before and I am going to say it again, time flies!  For Thanksgiving it was our year to be with the Ray's.  It was nice to spend the day eating lots of yummy food, mmmm, and visiting with family.
Here are some pics from Turkey Day.

December was busy with dance performances and our Christmas Recital.
Here's the kids with their dance groups.  Mylee is dancing with both the Show Team Smalls and Alls this year so she is a very busy girl this year.

After one of the dance performances the kids were able to visit with Santa and let him know what they wanted for Christmas this year.

In between all the dancing Bode turned 6.  He is in afternoon kindergarten so on his birthday Chris and I took him to breakfast.  He ordered hot cocoa with whip cream and just had to stick his face in it.
What a kid!

After changing his mind fifty times he finally decided on a skate board cake.
Here it is!

Makinlee had her preschool program and sang some fun Christmas songs for all the moms and dads.

Our ward had breakfast with Santa for the kids.  They got to wear their pj's to the church and play games and see Santa.  It was fun!

We were able to make it to the Jackson family Christmas party since it luckily was on the only weekend we didn't have a dance performance.  As always it was so fun to visit with everyone and eat all the yummy soups.
Here is Mylee holding my cousin Marci's baby Maycee. (what a cutie)

Auntie Lisa gave all the kids their own sticker nativity so of course my kids had to jump right on that.
Here's Makinlee and Kobe showing me theirs.

And here is Bode's.

Here is my mom with her mom (aka Granny J) and all her siblings.

Me, Granny J and my mom.

My little sis thought she would surprise me with some random pics so just for that....
here it is!  haha!  Love you Linds!

Actually I'm glad she did since I now have a good shot of her and mom. :)

Every year they have a 'Guess how many' game for the adults and one for the kids.  This year I won the adult one and Makinlee won the kids.  Score!  We let Lindsey take the adult jar of candy since I definately didn't need any more candy around my house for me to eat. ;)

And finally here are the kids on Christmas morning in their Christmas pj's.

We had a very busy but very fun Holiday season.
I have lots of video clips that I will try and get posted but I am going to have to figure out how to do it since they have changed things since I last posted.
I hope eveyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas and I hope you have a Happy New Year. :)
