Christmas!!

Christmas is truly the best time of year! This Christmas especially! The difference was Bailey. Every other Christmas is focused on what I'm giving and what I'm recieving. All about me :) This one, I could have cared less what Santa brought me. Bailey was sooooo fun and awesome to watch. I was so excited for her and Kyle and I loved every minute of it.

We started the season off by going up to Wyoming to cut down a Christmas tree. I was being very picky b/c they didn't look like the ones I have always had. So with minutes to spare before sundown we found a tree!! Once we got home from the 2 hour drive in freezing weather, half of the tree dissappeared. Oh well, we had a good time and make memories :)


We finally found a patch of "Christmas trees"

Bailey enjoyed helping us decorate the tree and I think it fulfilled her curiousity because she didn't really mind the tree after that!



We went to Kyle's parents house for Christmas Eve. We had a yummy dinner, watched The Nativiy Movie, and then opened gifts. Santa really went big this year! We got a Garmin GPS which I am sooo excited for, b/c I'm ALWAYS lost!

Bailey got a Singamagig that she loves!

Christmas morning, Santa brought her a HUGE Mickey Mouse. She was so funny. She loves him to much.

She got a broom and went straight to the kitchen to start sweeping!

Don't mind the dark circles under my eyes. Kyle is sporting his new coat!
Few weeks later:

My oldest brother Adam and his girlfriend came out to visit. It was so good to see them and actually have some One on one time with Adam. By the time I remebered him, he had moved out of the house and was in the Army. We had a lot of fun together and even though my family is different, we know how to have some fun :)

Ashley and Jake came down for New Years and we had game night and took the girls sledding. It was about 20 degrees and freezing outside but we still had some fun!
This is Brynn and Bailey.

Bailey wasn't too sure about all this! haha

Brynn just chilled the whole time, it was Bailey causing all the fuss.


This is how Bailey preferred sledding. We would send her down head first and she would go real fast and then start laughing. Thats my girl! Fast and Furious!!
That is how we ended our 2010. It was a GREAT year and I can't wait to have another one!
