CHRISTMAS IN LOGAN!

This year all of my family was home for Christmas. My sister Amy and her family drove from Spokane, Stacy was there, and Mitch and his fiance Tiffany were there. We were able to do alot of things together. On Christmas Eve we went to my Aunt Susan's house and ate and did gifts. I think the funnest part was sledding behind her house. I don't know what Dax thought of it, in fact he biffed it a few times face first in the snow.

On Friday we did some shopping and ate at Olive Garden. That night we went to my Grandma Hyer's house and did some more eating and opening gifts. I think Dax liked the boxes the best. Any box he could find to stand on even if it was only two inches off the ground he did. Stacy got guitar hero for Christmas and I swear that's all we did on Christmas day. I think one period of time was six hours straight.

It was so fun to be with family during the holidays. Dax loved playing with his cousins Aidan and Jack. And we all enjoyed getting to know Tiffany better. Thanks mom and dad for all that you did for us that weekend. We enjoy coming home and visiting. We love you.

KATIE AND TYLER'S NEW BABY

Tyler and Katie had their baby on Dec. 9th. Jett Neil Hone. Scott's parents were in Hawaii so Crystal and I went over to help her out till her mom could get there. We had a really great weekend just spending time together, talking, getting/giving advice, entertaining kids and truly confiding in each other.

Here's another picture of Jett. He's pretty tiny and dang cute. He looks alot like Maddex. Weighing only 5lb and 8oz. He is such a good baby. He eats well and sleeps well, which I'm sure makes Katie happy.

Maddex and Dax played pretty well together. I'm sure they both enjoyed having someone their size to play and interact with.

I think they were both watching Cars while sitting in Maddex's Car couch. Pretty cute!

Thank you Katie for letting us help you. I had a lot of fun and enjoyed being able to talk with you. We love Jett and all of you so much.

FUTURE DRIVER

Dax loves pretending to drive. He thinks it's the coolest. Before we know it we'll have these same pictures only 14 years older. Still the same grin.

This is just a picture of Dax when he fell asleep after a long day of running errands. We came home and before I was going to put him down for his nap, I thought I would give him a snack. I was doing some bills and noticed he was being very quiet (which is weird). I looked over and zonked, out cold. He didn't eat much of that apple as you can see. Tired boy!

THANKSGIVING WITH FAMILY. THE BEST!

This Thanksgiving was with Scott's extended side of the family. The Poole side to be more specific. It's always nice to visit with the people you don't see very often. Later that evening his mom's sister and family came over and we played Bunko which was way fun. We blocked the kiddos in the living room so we didn't have to worry about them while we played games. I felt kind of bad but it was nice not to have to worry about Dax going down the stairs.

Scott's sister Katie and her husband Tyler and boy Maddex came over from Boise. It was so nice to see them and have the kids all play together. Katie is due at the end of December. We can't wait to see her little boy and have another cousin to play with.

BLACK FRIDAY

Ever since Scott and I have been married, I've gone shopping the day after Thanksgiving with his mom and sister. It is such a blast. I love it. I can't really sleep the night before. Just thoughts going through my head all night. I kind of compare it to the night before Scott goes hunting. Kim is always a good sport and comes with us to stand in line while us girls shop. Thank you for making it such a fun day.
