New Years

 New Years was also spent with some great friends, who are also family! It was nice to just relax and hang out with people that are so easy to be around and where you feel so welcome.
                                           Kyle didn't like when the quad ride ended!
 Candace wa a good sport riding around on the quad... i didn't like the quad much when I was 7 or 8 months pregnant!
                                                       Rob Myla and Sydney xoxo
                                Bren and Candace and Gemma... such a doll! oh... and Kyle

Uncle Isaac giving Ryan a pull on the sled! Then Sydney and Ryan tried behind the quad all by themselves !
         This is as close as Randy wanted to get to me:")  He's cool all on his own!

                                                          The guys ... the sled dogs!
                                                                  My boy and I.

Christmas festivities


 This is a Christmas special. the fun of the holidays thrown into one long post.  the boys were excited about Christmas! Ryan actually rememers wheat its  all about and was counting down the days! Kyle just knew he liked the candy and goodies and the " count down" calendar where he often got a treat! I soon shanged that to the little majic grow animals.  The boys made a gingerbread house! and like most of their crafts did not want o stick to a design and put candies everywhere. the house had probably 6-8 chimney's on it!!







Kyle was right in on it! Loving the fact that i was letting him eat as many as he put on!

                        busy little fingers!  they did a swell job! quite a masterpiece really!!

                 The finished product! I love it! .... ok, so 4 chimney's...that you can see!


 Ryan loved "shopping" in the sears wish book! he spent hours circling things he liked and things he thought Kyle would want. Mom even ordered him the one thing he wanted so bad... but thank you Sears it did not arrive as promised and i am still waiting for it. pretty upset about that one:(
                                               watching the grow capsules dissolve!
                                                 
                                 Stealing candy. just pushes a little chair up and helps himself
                                      Then the older one joined him! ... whatever...it's Christmas!

                                Kyle is obsessed with hippo's! so I bought hima aHippo hat and made hima cute little Hippo shirt that turns blue in the sunlight
( thank you Karissa!) Here are teh boys in their new Shirts. Ryan wanted an Eberle jersy. and Randy's is one the boys made with thumb prints. it has a centipeed on each side. a bigger one for Ryan and a smaller one for kyle. it says" I love you"     "So do I"
                                            What's more fun than licking frosting?

       Christmas Eve was spent with our "other family" Baba J and all the rest of the J's. of course it was fun and the food was delicious! And I was once again Thankful for life as it has turned out.  bad part... i never took my camera. mostly because i wanted to enjoy myself without being behind a monster lens and because we were typically late and i forgot it!  But i will always remember and regret that I never ate more!!
                                                 Christmas dinner at Nana's
                                      She looks like a Dr. Seuss character from" A cat in The Hat"
                        Ryan was over the moon to get "Harvey" best gift every!   SCORE!!!
                                                  Ryan sporting his new pj's I made him!
                                                        Papa and Kyle ... Kyle's buddy
     the shirt the boys made papa Ryan told me what to write. he also wanted to do his own style of art!

      Sledding out back of the house!  It was so warm! so fun for them! one day when they felt well enough to go out! everyone managed to get sick over Christmas.
