Happy Holidays!

Halle is 8 weeks old today, and I am in SHOCK at how fast it's flown by. We've had Thanksgiving, my birthday, Christmas, and New Year's, and it's already 10 days into January.

For Christmas I can't even tell you how excited "Santa" was to give Cash his new 4-wheeler. This is the real deal, gas powered, all terrain vehicle. Santa couldn't sleep for the 2 nights before Christmas! Of course Cash loved it, and Marley... and of course we've had our first accident. Marley ended up with some pretty good road rash on her face. When I was cleaning up her face she was chewing on something and when I asked her what was in her mouth she sweetly replied, "the road."

Cash is awesome, and almost 4 years old. It scares me! He's a very sweet boy, and so smart. Marley is a character... She has a muppet voice, and says the funniest things. She and Cash get along pretty dang well for the most part. Halle is a perfect baby. Seriously, I can finally understand why people crave babies, when the baby acts like she does. :)

I am at a loss for words, so I'll post some pictures.


I just ADORE this picture.


Halle sleeping so sweetly.


She was so excited to go build our snowman!


Our lovely Frosty!


Stockings are the best.


Cash could have been satisfied with just his stocking!


I don't think I've ever seen a girl so excited to get a doll... She also got a barbie house to go with it.


Ryan totally shocked me and spoiled me and got me a gorgeous ring with my birthstone. Don't mine the terrible picture of me. :)


Cash letting us know he loves us...


SANTA'S SURPRISE!!


Christmas Day. I love it when my dad brings Thunderjet to let us ride...


I have a hard time deciding who is the most excited about this!


This was taken right before the road rash!


After the accident...


We blessed Halle on the 2nd of January. Ryan gave her a fabulous blessing, and she looked so beautiful! It was a special day for sure.


I hope she keeps those blue eyes.


Halle is smiling all the time now... it's so stinkin' cute.


Marley being Marley! :)


Cash's first day in Primary!! He's such a big boy.


I just love the shoes she is wearing. This is our most recent picture.

:) Love your up-dates... your kids are adorable. I'm so glad Halle has been an easy going baby, she's beautiful. That 4 wheeler is an awesome gift, I know it's going to be so much fun- he'll be a pro starting out so young. I miss riding with my family! Does Marley ever stop smiling? She looks like such a happy little girl (even after eating some road). Happy you guys had a great Christmas! Happy New Year to you guys!
