Sienna's new bedroom....

Sienna has been begging for a while now to get her bedroom painted and decorated. So for Christmas this year that is exactly what she asked for. Derrick and I surprised her a few weeks back by painting the lime green wall in her room. She was more then thrilled with that. Then me, being super excited to see it all together had an extremely hard time waiting till Christmas to let her have the rest of her stuff to put it all together.

It all came together very cute. ( I must add that SHE picked out all the colors). And she is so thrilled with it. Maybe she will keep it clean now...HA HA HA! Well a mom can wish!

Merry Christmas....

My sweet Sienna..

Brogun playin in Sienna's presents..

Hard to believe that another Christmas has come and gone. Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year. And it just gets more wonderful every year.

I am so happy that we did have a white Christmas this year. The tree's looked so amazing. It was a winter wonder land for sure.
We had a great time with the kids on Christmas morning. Sienna was thrilled to get her bedroom set that she was soooo hopeing for. I will post pics as soon as we get it all put together.
Brogun had fun with all of the wrapping paper and bows. If we were smart we would have just given him boxes and paper instead of toys. They were much more entertaining. He had a great first Christmas as did we all.
Derricks parents and my brother Trevor came over early to watch the present opening and enjoy a nice HOT sweet roll and orange roll. They were Yummy for sure.
We had Christmas dinner at my parents house, then that evening round 2 of cheesy potato's and ham at Tiffany and Tylers. We sure didn't mind the double dinner, as it is a favorite of the entire families.
I was thinking we might get to end our evening a little early, but with Tylers Wii "Rock Band" it is a fun and addictive game to get Derrick away from. He had a blast and it was fun to watch 3 men get so intense in playing.
We had an amazing Christmas and feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family to spend it with.
2010 is just around the corner and I am so excited to see what blessings it has in store for our little family.

Temple Square....

Derrick took the family to Salt Lake this weekend to go to Temple Square. We got to Temple Square just in time for the lights to come on. It is such a beautiful and spititual place to be, especially this time of year. And lucky for us, the weather was pretty nice. The warm before the storm. We walked around by the nativity and the reflection pond and admired all the amazing lights. It is wonderful to see and be reminded of what Christmas is all about.

Gingerbread House's.......

Grandma Cindy loves to get all of the grandkids together to make crafts for each Holiday. So being Christmas soon, it was time to make Gingerbread houses.

The kids had a great time squeezing icing on their houses and decorating it however they liked. Some houses had a little more candy on them then others, depending on how hungry the elf was.

They all turned out super cute and the kids had a blast.

Visit with Santa..

Can you tell she is thrilled....
Guess it is better then crying....

Santa made a visit to the town Christmas party the other night. And as all mom's know, you have to get the first Christmas Santa picture. While most of the other babies were crying to sit on this strangers lap, Brogun decided it was time for a nap. Made for a cute photo anyway.

And as for pre-teen Sienna....well mom got her way! She refused to sit on his lap since she is SO OLD now. However, Mom can be pretty persuasive when I want to be. HA HA HA! She decided it wasn't too bad once they handed her a king size Kit Kat (her favorite). But she assured me that she will NOT be sitting on his lap again.
