What we have been up to lately.

Sorry it has been so long since my last post, but my computer has been giving me a lot of crap lately and Tyler's parents moved too far away to go out all the time and use their Internet. So this one is gonna be pretty long.
Christmas was great. We had a lot of family parties, and really enjoyed every one of them. Ayden got a Fisher Price digital camera from Deb and Stan for Christmas and he is really good at taking pictures with it. He also got a couple of fire trucks and some play dough. Jennika got a couple of new babies, a very cute new outfit, and a Fisher Price laugh and learn table. Tyler and I got a new comforter and curtains for our bedroom, a docking station for our ipod, and a little money. All in all we had a very good Christmas.
Today we took the kids tubing, Ayden was having more fun throwing snowballs at Tyler's two best friends Jake and Jordan. I got a few pictures of that. All the pictures that are on this post are off of Ayden's Fisher Price camera. Pretty cool huh?

Me and Jennika on Christmas morning

Ayden and Aunt Keri playing Kayston's new Candyland game from us

Ayden, Kayston, Keri and Preston playing Kaystons new Candyland game.

Ayden's HUGE firetruck that our friends, Abe and Jolene, gave him
Now here are just some random pictures off of Aydens camera that he took himself.

Ayden was holding the camera upside down out in front of him and took this one

One of our fish

I guess he likes to take pictures of his feet

But I thought they were so cute I couldn't delete them

I have no idea what she is doing but Ayden took this one too.
Here are some pictures from lunch today. We took the kids to Carl's Jr. and let them play in the play area. I took these pictures though.

Ayden wouldn't go play in the big kid area but he loved playing with his little sister

Jennika refused to look at the camera

They love playing together

Neither one of them would look at the camera that time
Here are some cute pictures of me and kids that I took recently.

Aren't kids so beautiful when they are sleeping?

I LOVE this picture because he is actually smiling. SO cute!!

He was in a bad mood that day and I was trying to cheer him up.
And finally here are some of the pictures from us tubing today.

Jake was pulling me and Jordan and Ayden and we almost ran into the back of the truck!

Ayden didn't want to ride with anyone but Jordan

Tyler when we were having a snowball fight, it was so much fun! I think that was Aydens favorite part.

Jake got his four wheeler stuck in the snow and we are sitting there waiting for him to pull it out. Jennika was with us but she didn't like the tubes because she didn't like the snow flipping up into her face, and she didn't like the four wheeler because she was too cold so she sat in one of our arms most of the time and played in the truck for a little bit. She had a lot of fun though. We put the kids in the truck as often as we could so that they wouldn't get too cold. They love to just play in daddy's truck.

Well that is all for now. I hope you all had a good Christmas too and have a Happy New Year!! Love you all!

Jennika


We bought Ayden and Jennika these huge suckers at the store last night and Jennika looked so cute with hers. She shoved the entire thing in her mouth, and she got it all over the place. But Tyler couldn't get a picture of Ayden with his so here is one of Jennika.

My Christmas tree


So my tree topper is a little tiny mitten with a picture of a star embroidered on it. I know it is cheesy but we don't have a star so I improvised.

This is my tree from across the room.

And here it is close up because you can't see the decorations very well in the previous picture.

Ayden finally got a haircut!






Ayden finally got a haircut! I don't know if you noticed in those recent pictures I just posted but Ayden's hair was getting so long, we finally got it cut last night. Tyler's mom did it for me so it was free which made it that much better! :) Thanks Deb! It looks so cute and he looks so grown up now. Sorry the pictures aren't the best but he wouldn't look at me.
