2009...What?

It is 2009 and there were so many things that happened in 2008 that i never updated on, so here goes really quick (get ready for an overload):

Bennett had a preschool Christmas program, so cute, he is so big!

We made gingerbread houses at his preschool Christmas party.



The boys looked so cute in their Christmas church outfits.




For Christmas Eve we had a pajama party at my sisters house, the boys got to open their pajamas earlier in the day, they were so cozy and cute.




Christmas morning Bennett went straight for the plate of cookies for Santa, he was so amazed that they were all gone, and some remnants of carrots were left and he wanted to know if the reindeer came inside since they left some pieces of carrots....smart kid!

Bennett asked Santa for a "real" coconut and he got one, he thought it was so cool.

The other thing Bennett REALLY wanted was a stuffed Toucan and he got it!




Grayson didn't care about anything, he just wanted to play inside this box!

Wade was really sweet and made me a picture box of all of my marathon stuff, pictures, my certificate and awards, etc. It was really thoughtful.

The day after Christmas we headed to St. George for a week, we had a great trip. We were lazy and played games and just hung out. It was really cold out. We headed to Cedar City one day to go sledding and we found Bennett's calling in life....he LOVED it. He is normally a very nervous kid, but he wouldn't stop, it was so cute to watch, we will have to find a snowy hill close by soon!

Grayson liked it too, it was such a fun day!




ok, goodbye 2008...hello 2009!

Seeing Bennett and Grayson together makes me to excited for my two boys to get big together. Even when they are fighting, they are adorable and it cracks me up! I love the matching church outfits and pjs. I'm glad you guys had such a fun trip - but I am even more glad you are home!!!

It was really good to see you in Vegas, next time we will have to plan to meet up! I wish we could've stayed at the Snoop Dogg party longer, at least you got to live it up!
