Christmas 2013

 These pics are all out of order but Xmas eve

we went sledding in Mt. Charleston and it was so fun with Laith, Kyse, Bre, Wally,

and Grandpa

 of course my dad found this huge hill and went full speed

 Kellan was wanting to go down so bad, so Rick set him on

a sled and let go! I freaked out and if you look in the second

picture, that's my dad's leg running after , but this kid LOVED every second

He would scream if we took him off, he is going to be a handful with trying to be a 

dare devil we can already tell!

 grandpa and the grandkids

my cuties

 xmas eve Laith and Kyse all dressed up

 xmas eve dinner, Mia actually went home and changed cause she thought she

wasn't dressed up enough. so cute.

 can you stand the cuteness?

 new toys my parents got and boy were they fun. we all spent hours

going downhill with them in the front yard and the babies loved them!

 back to the snow, Mia LOVED riding with her grandpa

 and racing Laith

 kyse trying to snowboard

 Kellan trying to stand up on his sled! geez!

 Kind of backwards. Nicole and the kids came late Thurs night so we got a 

sister pic. Bre just got her hair done so that was the joke that she

looked better than everyone else..

 random pics of the kids, eating cookies, 

making gingerbread houses and riding Mia's new

razor from Santa

 family pic from Xmas eve

 I found these cute little Xmas overalls and couldn't resist

 Xmas eve opening up pjs

 Santa came! 

 Mia walking out of her room Xmas morning

 the best part is that Spock was awake when Santa came and 

he gave him a little elf necklace from the North Pole! 

When Mia saw it she said," Well cats are nocturnal so Santa should have

known that he was going to be awake when he came!"

 digging through her stocking! We think that she was so humble this 

year, it was adorable, she was grateful for everything she got and super excited about it.

 Kellan's 1st Christmas

 fun on the razor, Mia was scared to death to drive it and she

kept saying, "Mom I'm not even a teenager yet, I can't drive this until I'm a teenager!"

 cute!

 off to my mom's house for more presents and fun!

 Kellan and grandpa

 Mia giving her gifts

 matching aprons

 back to our house with grandma and grandpa M

 where are all the pics? Rick??

 Nicole and Jay

 Mia LOVES her cousins sooo much

 fun on the couch

 next morning, this is what happens when you give your

kid a yogurt container

 brother/sister love

 Kellan with all his toys!

so when the cousins had to leave, specifically Scott, Mia had quite the breakdown

saying she's going to pack her cat and move to Logan and she was bawling all night, it broke

my heart. She kept telling me her chest just hurt her and she just missed him so much that it

hurt. Man it stinks to not live by cousins. I explained that my sisters all live in other places and cousins too and that we just have to visit a lot. She said she wants Scott to be her older brother and I said I'm sure he wouldn't mind :) We had a great Xmas, it flew by but it wouldn't have been the same without all the cousins so thanks for coming everyone!

Kellan is 11 months!

 Decided to take some 11 month pictures before church

last week. Kellan is so funny. He is the biggest cuddle bug gives 

kisses ALL day long. I can't believe he's almost a year old!

He loves Mia so much and also loves to tease her, he's constantly trying to take

her toys and crawl away. He is taking steps and just walked half way across the room to Aunt

Brooke last night! He loves Spock and says kitty, book, bird, thank you, and waves goodbye

it's sooo cute! He's definitely a miniature Rick but he is a momma's boy! This kid won't let me put him

down for a second which is difficult while getting ready for work or trying to get anything done. 

He's definitely a cutie!

 my favorite!!
