Part 1 of Christmas

We had a very busy December filled with party's, Santa Claus, the Grinch, concerts and lots of time with family. I don't know why but my photo's always upload weird but since I have several posts to do I am leaving it the way it is. So sorry they are in random order.


Here is our family seeing Santa Claus at our ward party.

This is Kloey sporting grandpa's new BYU hat.

This year the Westover family was all going to be gone over Christmas so we decided to do Christmas early. The Sunday before Christmas Shardawg fixed us a terrific meal. Then we opened presents and we were all spoiled. Seth got some tennis stuff. I got some clothes and gift certifcates to go buy some new pots and pans and a wireless speaker system for my ipod. The girls were totally spoiled! The got a gourmet kitchen, dishes, food, dolls and strollers, and their very own cleaning set. It has been fun to see them play with them. They are getting so big and so smart.

Rylee opening her big present.

The girls had so much fun ripping the wrapping paper.

A new cookbook. I have been on a cooking spree.

Oh my gosh this is so EXCITING!

Team work

The yummy dinner.

That morning my mother-in-law Julie got us tickets to the Christmas Mormon tab and David Archeleta concert. It was so good. I guess it was worth walking in the pouring rain for 10 blocks!

At my parents ward party they were visited by the Grinch. My girls didn't like it to much.

Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving was fun this year. We went to Seth's parents early in the day and then to my parents in the evening. Then Friday morning we headed up to the cabin. There was a lot of fresh snow and we had a good time sledding. It will be even better when there is even more snow but the downside to that is we are going to have to hike in because we don't have a vehicle that will make it to our cabin.

The view of the snow covered valley.

Kloey's first experience in the snow. They were both bundled up so much that they could barely walk. It reminded me of the boy from The Christmas Story.

Not quite sure what's going on.

Now it's Libby's turn.

This could be fun.

Oh wait not when I flip over and face plant it into the snow.

Cottle family.

The ranger made it this time but it won't with more snow. Bummer.

Grandpa and Grandma Cottle came up one day to join in the fun.
