Christmas morning and day

Grandma and Grandpa came over Christmas morning to see the kids open presents. They weren't quite sure at first what was going on but they ended up loving it. Abby wanted to sit in the dolls high chair so she yanked the doll out and climbed in.We spent the day at Kens parents house but didn't open presents until the next day so Ken's sister and family could be there. Abby was given this petti skirt Lisa made for her. She loves it and wants to have it on all day.

Ken's parents gave all the kids a big wad of money for Christmas.




Drew, Tucker and Riley

Ken's mom did a fish pond they all received 4 gifts and thought that was so fun.

Christmas Eve

We spent the night with just my family and opened presents.

Abby got a cute Cabbage patch and has to sleep with it during naps and bedtime.
The prized castle Riley received from my parents. He hasn't stopped playing with it since, we have to take it everywhere.

I got a bloody fat lip playing Foosball with my sister Nikki. The ball was stuck so we usually blow on it to make it move. As i was blowing she made her players kick right in front of my face. Leave it up to me to injure myself in a non contact game.

Our fun family weekend

I wanted to take pictures of the kids before church...apparently they didn't want to cooperate.

We went to temple square to see the lights with my parents and sister Nikki. It was freezing cold and after 10 min. my kids were done.




Nikki and Jake's picture turned out blurry unfortunately.

I didn't want to post my birthday but we had such a fun party. This is a blurry pictures but i have to explain it. My Mom and sister were in kitchen laughing about my cake then Ken walked in and started laughing. So they started singing to me and at the end when they were suppose to say my name, they called me Jeff. I looked at the cake and it said Jeff. I laughed so hard i couldn't blow out the candles. When my mom went to the bakery, she said Jess and the lady behind the counter said with 2 f's? Of course my mom thought she said s and didn't check the cake before she left. Anyways my brother called my Jeff the rest of the night.

My parents wrapped a box of ornaments for my birthday present with money inside so i had to brake the bulbs to get all of it out.



We had our family Christmas party/birthday party at my parents house. It was so much fun my mouth hurt from laughing. We do a white elephant every year and my parents strategically received framed pictures of actors they have or had a crush on.



Nikki took a picture of Jake on the toilet and taped it onto a bottle of cider calling it Sheriff's Finest.

Riley eating birthday cake, well the frosting anyways.We also went out to dinner together as a family. Thanks mom and dad, we had a ball!
