Pics Only

The first snowman of 2010. . .

was a little short and squatty. It was the snows fault though, not the builders.

Troy and Zada

They both got some new church clothes for Christmas and I just thought they looked too good to pass up taking some pics.

Humanatarian Bowl

Ted and I went to the Humanatarian Bowl last month. I've never seen so much gold and black! It was great! Except that my point and shoot camera was acting weird. Which resulted in some messed up pictures.
And what an amazing game, right? I seriously thought they had lost it when Bowling Green scored their last touchdown. Yay for Idaho!

Christmas

We spent Christmas Eve at my Grandma and Grandpa Stewarts house. This is Denice reading the Kids a Christmas story.

Zada was not a fan of Grandpas moving toy, but Troy warmed up to it.

Christmas Morning was spent at my parents place. Troy got swords, cars, and a tool box. Zada got a stroller, (Which we put together in the dark because the power went out) a toy cash register, and camera.

Zada was not a fan of the sledding Christmas morning. In fact, she wasn't a fan of anything Christmas Day. She was a little grump. I think she was just out of her comfort zone with all the people and treats.

She would have much rather been held by anybody even Uncle Trevor.

Troy, however, couldn't get enough of the sledding. Ted and Trevor took him up to the gravel pit in Carey and he loved it. It took some convincing though because it looked like a volcano to him.

We spent a Christmas night at Larsens where the kids got even more spoiled. Among the presents was a battery powered four wheeler from Uncle Chris. She can actually ride it, but turning is hard.

And Uncle Chris gave Troy a . . .

Paintball gun. Yes, Uncle Chris out did himself. . . again. Seriously.

The kids got bundled up and went for a ride. Again, I'm not so sure Zada was a fan.

And, honey, I just had too.

Oh. Baby.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Christmas Crafts

Troy is at the age where Christmas can be really fun! To drag out the wait until Santa comes I made a magnetic Advent Calender in November. Troy puts an ornament on the tree every day until Christmas! We haven't been the best at remembering everyday, but it has been enjoyable to play with :)

I used an old peanut butter jar to hold the ornaments.
And I finally tackled Christmas socks this year. It was stressful, painful, and awful, but they are done. . . until we have another addition. (No this is not an announcement!)

Next years craft will be somewhere to hang them!
