Christmas Morning...

Christmas Eve we were invited to a family's home for a white elephant gift exchange, dinner, and nativity program. Connor was Joseph...and did a great job!

I think she was a little excited!



Leading up to Christmas...

I love the look of sheer concentration of all here!

Anadarko did a fun Christmas party for the kids this year and Connor got a sweet Spiderman paint job!
These Sugar Cookies were amazing! And the kids had fun making them too!
We've finally reached the year that Connor isn't afraid to sit on Santa's lap. : )

Date Night...

The theme for Andarko's Christmas Party this year was "Rat Pack Era." I had to ask a friend what that meant and she said, "like Dick Tracy." So here's what we came up with! We had a really fun night of good food, great friends, and fun entertainment.
Our friends, Bevan and Jaley, whom we also coordinated with. ; )
These three entertainers sounded just like, Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin.

CONNOR's SURGERY

Did we feel like bad parents or what when the dentist told us Connor had 8 cavities....and would need to be put under with anesthesia to take care of them? Luckily we also found out it could also be just that he genetically has soft teeth...I'll think the latter. ; )
Before being rolled off to surgery the Dr. gave Connor some "juice" that would help relax him...and boy did it! He was the goofiest, silliest, and happiest little boy. We laughed a lot.

Here's my baby coming out of surgery...our little angel.

First Hair CUT

DURING: not so sure what to think ; )

Over Thanksgiving the boys took the kids out on the horses for a ride.....they had fun!

Fun Outings!

Soon after moving to Denver some friends said we HAD to visit the "White Fence Farm for a very fun experience." It's a family-style restaurant with good country fried chicken. The kids had a great time watching the ducks, playing on the playground, and checking out the fountains.



She looks like such a little Cowgirl!
We also fit in the Chatfield Corn Maze....and thankfully made it out....NOT thanks to my directional skills. ; )
Sweet little pig-tails...miss them!
Riding the train at the Denver Zoo!

They LOVE the SNOW!
