Ward Christmas party 2014

Fun shenanigans at the ward party this year. Santa, photo booth, "snowball" fight, nativity story, yummy food….

Waiting in line for Santa.

"Snowball" fight fun.

R and his pal Jade. He loves her.

These two.

The kids got to choose between an angel or stable animal for the primary's Nativity performance. Kaylee was an angel, Regan was a cow, and V was a zebra. The Primary President needed to know what the kids picked, and when I said the V wanted to be a zebra she was more than fine with it. Because why can't there be a zebra at the stable?

All the parents filming the kiddos.

Kaylee singing her lungs out.

Regan flipped out because he wanted to stand by his buddy Gillian and someone beat him to it. So he left the performance to pout about it for a while.

He got over it and joined everyone when they went on stage.

Her closing bow center stage at the end cracked us up.

It was a really fun night out with the kids.

Ward campout 2014

These two were SO excited when we picked them up from school.

We picked up Sonic for lunch and Subway for the cooler to eat later that night.

Kaylee was SUPER excited when the tent was all set up.

Jon of course brought his planes. They were a hit.

Kaylee and I went on several nature walks and just chatted. Her request. I'm gonna miss this in a few years.

The campground was small so we were able to let the kiddos just roam free while keeping them in our sights. SO nice for them and us.

This cutie pie came to visit us during the rainstorm that drenched us. We love Kyle. He is the funniest kid.

During the rainstorm Kyle's grandpa opened up his fithwheel for all the kids to watch Planes. Kaylee and Regan where the only ones that stayed for the whole movie. Jon and I caught the tail end of it after the storm.

Jon explaining to Ben how the RC remote works.

He got the quadcoppter up with no injuries.

The littles built this rock wall and decorated it. It kept the busy for a LONG time.

We were the last family at the campsite. Kaylee REALLY wanted to go on a long family hike. So we did.

The kids tried so hard to climb up this tree, but they needed a bit of help. So I decided that I'd help my shorties out a bit.

This campout ended much better that our last one. No puking and no vehicles on fire. Everyone had fun. Yea!

trunk or treat 2013

Jon and I have dressed up for Halloween every year since we met. Well except the year I was on bed rest with Regan. It's safe to say this a tradition for our family. This is the first year we have ever done any sort of themed costumes. It's been so fun that I am already planning next years group costume. It started with Regan's Batman obsession. I decided if he was going as Batman then I would go as Wonder Woman. Finding a flesh covering WW costume was not hard at all! No really, it was easy.

When my costume arrived the children asked all sorts of questions about WW. So I pulled up the t.v. show for them to watch. Kaylee and Regan are now hooked on WW. Kaylee decided after watching episode one that she no longer wated to be Aroura for Halloween. She NEEDED to be WW. Finding a flesh covering costume for her proved impossible. So I made her costume.

Regan chose the old school Batman look so Jon went with the newer look. So the kids are wearing the more traditional outfits, and the adults are wearing the newest versions of these caractors,

I didn't realize until the next day that Regan didn't have his utility belt on. Sad. It was burried in the dress up box…

We had so much fun. The children are counting down the day until they get to do the door to door candy collecting.
