NOT Happy

Ok, So I ordered my Christmas cards through JCPenny online like seriously tomorrow will be two weeks ago... uh.. something is going on. I ordered them on November 29th.. guess what Tomorrow is December 12th.. Its going to be late sending them out. Oh I sooo better get them tomorrow.. if not I got some butt chewing on monday. They even charged my account not until the 7th, which I don't understand why. Yes I order them on a Saturday, but they would have gotten my order on Monday and it say it will take up to 10 business days..hey today is 10 business days.. uh Still don't have them. Very Very upset. Even though I don't have much money this Christmas the cards weren't that cheap. And these cards are soo cute.. I soo love them. SO I better get them for now that have charged to my account.. OK MAD!!!!

Santa's Village

We went to Santa's Village today. It was very cold, but I think Tristen enjoyed it. Brooklynn slept most of the time! We watched the train, visited Santa, and did some arts and crafts. We would have went on the sleigh ride, but it was cold and thought the kids were too little. Next year for sure!!!

Our Thankgiving

We had a pretty good Thankgiving this year. On Saturday, Nov 22nd we had an early Thankgiving with Ashton's parents. Yummy food! Jim Finally met Brooklynn for the first time, which they both we cute together. It was just us, Chris & Gayle, & Jim & Joan! It was nice! Yesturday, we went to my parent's place. Yummy food! Brooklynn's first Thankgiving, which went good. Tristen had a great time with Cole. They played so well together. It was cute, b/c Tristen would follow Cole everywhere & try to do everything he did or vice versa. We brought some toys from our house to donate to mom's daycare and the boys we having a blast with those. It was soo cute to see them bond together. Too bad we don't live closer they would be such great playdate pals!

Happy late Thanksgiving!

Now time to hang up Christmas decorations......

Welcome

We would like to Congratulate Stephanie and Greg Norton and big sister Kylie on their new arrival Lacey!! Born on Nov 21st! Can't wait to see pictures!!!

Bright Mornings

The greatest thing in life is love. I am so in love with my two kids. Every morning I get Tristen out of bed first, because most likely Brooklynn had been up couple hours before and still is sleeping. When I peek into his room and can see that smile all the way from the doorway, when it is still dark out and he says, "Hi" with a BIG smile. That smile brightens up my day from the get go. As he gets out of bed I say "Where is that mommy kiss" and he looks up with those lips puckered up ready to give me my morning kiss. Oh do I love those kisses. Then he runs out of his room with his little legs and jumps onto the couch to watch is morning Blues Clues and he glass of milk. As I watch him run out I just want to tear up because he is getting so much bigger these days. I remember the first day he started walking like it was yesturday. He was so darn cute, he still is. I love to watch him run, walk, jump, crawl. Everything he does is so cute. He makes my life so complete. As Brooklynn does too.
When I get Brooklynn out of bed she gives me that BIG smile and a little giggle. She is in that giggle phase which is so funny because she laughs at everything and I mean everything. For example, Ashton and I were in the car tonight coming from Target and we hear her laugh in the backseat by herself. Tristen is at grandma and grandpa's so its not him making her laugh and that just makes us laugh and we all end up laughing. She is soo silly!
So as you can see my children make my day in the mornings. I have two smiles that really brighten up my home. I love smiles and laughter and that is what I have! Its great!!

Baptism

Congrations Tristen & Brooklynn!!!

Today Tristen & Brooklynn were baptised into the Lord's hands. We are so very proud of them. We couldn't have asked for better children. They did fairly well for church. Tristen was getting a little tired towards the end, but did pretty well. Brooklynn was getting fussy. They looked so darn cute in their outfits. Brooklynn had such an adorable dress. Tristen had a little tie on.. he sure looked like his father. I have tons of pictures!!!

We had a little reception in Hillsboro. The grandparents, Shawna & Cole, Shaun, Shane, Shayla, & Joan came to celebrate the wonderful day. We are so proud!
