Christmas 2011 style

Christmas went by fast here at our house.  December was crazy with Quin working a crazy schedule at the hospital and the kids with school parties and being out of school for two weeks.

WE HAD FUN THOUGH . . .


Teagan eating lots of chocolate from the hot chocolate stand at our Ward Christmas Party (that I was in charge of).
 Treydon and Ashelyn were wisemen in the play at our Ward Christmas Party
 Gingerbread trains - Treydon did a trainwreck.  Ashelyn and I decorated ours with lots of candy.  Teagan and daddy decorated theirs BYU style.
 Christmas morning in their Christmas jammies
Since Quin was gone a lot this Christmas (we only got him Christmas Eve and Christmas Day - which was our present for sure!) the kids and I had many sleepovers that involved candy and laughter under the tree until WAY TOO LATE!  (But I love to make memories!)

Leaves in my hair!




Can you believe they threw leaves in my hair!?!

NAUGHTY MONKEYS!

I am glad (well I wasn't at the time!) the gardeners left these leaves in our backyard for two weeks so we had something to do over Christmas break!  Lol!

Green Machine

Treydon has been with these boys on the same team for three years now! 
It has been an amazing experience for Treydon and our family to be a part of this group.
It was the best year these boys have ever had -
 making it to the championship
and WINNING!

These boys have transformed in so many ways. 
It was bittersweet to have the season end - knowing they wouldn't be able to play together again next year.  But we had amazing experiences!

Treydon has grown so much and I have seen him learn to work together with his team as they became a family.
The Green Machine Family

I am not the biggest sports fan,
but I sincerely enjoyed watching these boys play.
Thanks to all the boys for turning over a new leaf in my book!!!

Thanksgiving break in UTAH!

We headed to Utah for Thanksgiving Break and
Oh WOW
We Had Fun!


 At a BYU basketball game
(minus Treydon who had to sit with the other Young family boy cousins)

 Played football in the Mitchell family front yard
 Iceskating with the Mitchell's
Teagan iceskating with Camille and Jake
 Teagan with his iceskating gear on
 Ashelyn with her iceskating gear on.  She went all by herself!
 Teagan, Quin, Treydon, Nick at iceskating rink
 Quin and Gpa Mitchell with the boys
 Brandon and Ashelyn were best buddies
After opening Aunt Brittany's sweet ;) presents at Mitchell's

It was so sad to leave all the fun in Utah behind - shopping, good food, my babysitters, cousins, playing, snow (which never showed while we were there!), and much more!
