December

We went to the gateway mall for dinner at Tucanos to celebrate Nicole and Kib's Birthday. After dinner we did some shopping and went to look at the water fountains. There was also a huge pine tree that was covered in lights. Camrie found a spot where she could go inside of the tree so we took some pictures of her and Brooky in there.

Helping papa blow out his Birthday candles on his pecan pie.

Here are some pictures that we took of the girls one day before church. They looked so cute in there matching sweater dresses.








Look at this curly hair. This is what Brooklyn's hair looks like when she gets out of a bath.
I took Camrie to my aunt's house to have her make gingerbread houses with my cousin's kids. They had lots of fun eating lots of candy and putting a little on there houses.
We spent Christmas Eve at the Jacobson's. It was a lot of fun and we got spoiled. This is Brooky enjoying the boxes. She kept getting in it and then would just sit there.

Camrie showing off the snow white dress that Grandma Donna got her. She kept this on the rest of the night. She wanted to sleep in it but we wouldn't let her.

Camrie getting papa to open the Cinderella doll that Aunt Nicole got her. She took this to bed with her.

This is a scarf that Brooky got from Grandma Donna.

Most of the evening was spent with Brooky and Myla climbing on the stacks of Christmas presents. They thought that the boxes were the best presents of all. They loved seeing how brave there where by climbing up on the biggest boxes.

Nate can always get Brooklyn laughing.

The girls getting there Christmas PJ's.

The cousins hanging out in the ball crawl that Uncle Jake gave Brooklyn. It was a big hit with all the girls. I only have this one picture from Christmas day everything else was on the video camera. Camrie wanted her Snow White dress back on the moment that she got back up in the morning. Jake got Camrie a pair of skates and a kid laptop. All of his gifts where big hits.
Camrie loves to go out and help her dad shovel the snow. She has this cute little shovel from Discovery Toys that is just her size.

November

Brooklyn really wanted to go out and join Camrie and Cam making the snow princess.
Brooklyn all bundled up and ready to go out side.

Our family picture next to the snow princess that Cam and Camrie made.

We ate Thanksgiving dinner with Cam's family this year. We all went over to Cam's uncle Gary's house. Gary really knows how to put on a meal. This was our centerpiece for the table then he had another turkey that we actual ate. Nicole had made cute name tags for all of us with a treat next to them. Everything tasted so good and it was nice to get to visit with everyone.

Camrie and Ben playing with the Nativity before we had Thanksgiving dinner.

Nate giving Grandma Donna a piggy back down stairs.

Riding the marry-go-round at Bondocks on Thanksgiving. We went with Nate's family to bowl a little bit that night. Brooky is not so sure that she likes marry-go-rounds. Camrie on the other hand loves them.

Looking at lights at Temple square. We went the day after thanksgiving this year and it was freezing cold, but there were not a lot of people.

This is Camrie's favorite part of all the lights. We try and go here last because once she gets here she wont leave. I think she watched it like 5 times through. I went inside with Brooky and tried to keep her happy. I finally ruined Camrie's fun by making her leave.

Making Gingerbread houses at the Jacobson's

Halloween

The girls all playing at Grandma and Papa Loves in their Halloween costumes.

This year for Halloween Brookyln was a monkey because that is the costume that we had from Camrie.
Camrie was Belle from beauty and the beast. I made her dress for her birthday. To make it more special for Halloween I found a child size Belle wig and got her some dress up jewelry.
Camrie was not wanting to take pictures at all so that is why she has a silly face in everyone. We took the girls to a few of my parents neighbors to trick or treat. Then we went over to our church where they had an indoor trick or treating so that we didn't have to be in the rain. It was so nice to be able to let Camrie do the trick or treating but not have to be out in the cold, wet rain. For some reason we can't find any pictures that we took of the girls for Halloween. These are pictures that Jon and Alison had so if any one has pictures of the girls please send them to us. Thanks
