{An Idaho Christmas}

Here is a picture of Jared and Ace's kids. They are so darn cute. All the little kids had so much fun when these guys were waving the sheets up and down in the air. They loved it, especially Jaydon! :)

They got a ride around the house on the sheet. I didn't get a good picture of this one. Man did they love riding on the sheet!

Here we are as a family. We had to take a family picture so when their cousin came to visit for the day we had her take the picture! We just wanted one good shot where everyone was looking at the camera and smiling! Miraculously all the kids looked and smiled all in the first couple of shots! Easy! All the men of the family. Aren't they all handsome with there new Dupont hats? Shane's dad works for Dupont.



And of course Gavin's birthday was the 25th and so we celebrated! His cousin Kreyton has his birthday on the 22nd. They are only 3 days apart! FUN huh?. So we celebrated both of their birthdays on Christmas Day!



Christmas Morning Gavin decided to wrap papa up as a present.



We opened all their presents in Texas, but decided to bring some clothes so they would have those to open up on christmas morning. We bought all three of them new khaki pants for church, matching sweater vests and button down shirts. They look so handsome in them.



And they got some more pajamas! I think Santa brought them each three new pairs of pajamas. One set are Mario Cart pajamas since they love that game. Another set is Iron man, and another set are Train Your Dragon pajamas. Those are the favorite.





We had lots of fun while we were there. When we arrived around 5:30 p.m. we all met up with everyone at Salt Lake Square and walked around and looked at the lights, but we didn't last long b/c it was way too crowded. We were all getting lost b/c we have such a big crowd.






We went and stayed the night in Logan that first night. Then the next day we drove a couple of hours to go visit great Grandma Jenks. After that visit we made it to blackfoot. We enjoyed hanging out. We hopped on the 4-wheeler, hooked a heavy duty sled to the back of it and pulled the kids around . It was LOTS of fun. Shane and i would grab onto the back of the sled when they came by us and would hang on tight and go for the ride. We were dragging our bodies, and just holding on with our hands. It was lots of fun. Then shane just took me for a ride and pulled me around, goin as crazy as he could. I tipped a few times, but it was so fun. We built snowmen. Drank hot chocolate. Watched movies. Played games that made us laugh our heads off, played the WII...a new super mario game where 4 players can play at once...it's a blast. We baked lots of yummy goodness...cooked yummy food...and talked and laughed. It was fun. All the cousins had lots of fun. They were running all over the house screaming, laughing, yelling, etc. It would get chaotic, but it was fun. Thanks Bob and Janet! We love you and had lots of fun! :) It was memorable!
