A Visit With Santa

Well it's Christmas Eve and we are just now getting around to a visit with Ol' Saint Nick!  Yep!  I put it on the back burner until I got to Utah (thinking it would be cheaper), then I found a couple FREE Santa stations, well, today they were closed.  Josh and I headed down to the outlets and once we got to Santa's little hut, we found out we had to pay.  We complained under our breaths and the lady working it said she would let us take them with our camera without a purchase from them.  "It's Christmas!" she said!  Well THANK YOU!!  From the cheapos ;)     At first she was scoping out the place...

We backed her up into him and started snapping...

Then she turned around...

 It never got as bad as we expected it too!

Dad to the rescue...

  Merry Christmas Eve!! From our family to yours...have a wonderful day tomorrow!!  

Christmas Performances

This time of year is BUSY!  I am realizing this the more I am here in Utah.  All four of the little kids have Christmas performances at school this week.  Today was Gregory and Gracee.  We went and showed our support.  They were excited to see us.  This morning started out with Gregory...

Gregory and his teacher

Took off her headband and put it back on herself :)

Found Mom and Dad in the back

  Then this afternoon was Gracee's performance (Charlotte stayed home and took a nap!)...  

Lining up

The whole third grade

Rockin' out to one of the songs

 William and Lillee's class came in to watch, so they sat with us. 

Gracee and her teacher, Mrs. Pope

I got really excited for when Charlotte will be doing these performances!  I'm sure I will get there super early and be on the front seat!!  haha

Sneak Peek

It's that time of year again...FAMILY PICTURES!  The men dread it, the women stress over it, and the kids can't wait until it's over!  We had photographer, Chelsey, capture out family and she did a great job!  I give props to anyone taking pictures of our family...13 people...including five children who have a hard time cooperating (good thing they are cute)!  Here is a little sneak peek.

The FAM BAM!
