ARGO+ SNOW = FUN

Our neighbor Lon has this cool machine called an ARGO. He got it out one day while we were out playing in the snow building slides. We had the neighbor kids over at the time so everyone got a ride on it. The last trip he loaded all the kids in and went up and down the street doing donuts and turns and going really fast. It was a lot of fun although I feared for Corbin's life at time becuase he was too busy yellling and having fun he wasn't holding on with both hands. I was just waiting for him to fly out of the back.

Cousins Gift Exchange

This year the cousins picked a name for each other and we had a gift exchange. It had to be a favorite treat (ie: cereal, candy, cookie). everyone had a lot of fun and the kids had a great time getting a gift and giving it to their person they picked. The adults did it as well, we couldnt' pass an opportunity to recieve something yummy too.

Christmas Eve we went to Brad's sisters house for dinner and to do the nativity story with everyone. It turned out really good, Drew was the narrator, Susan and I were the photographers and we were blessed to have such a beautiful real baby Jesus this year. Gary and Tara came up for a visit with their new baby boy Samuel. He so precious and it was nice to have a little baby around for the holidays.

Traditions....

Every year Brad and I have made it a tradition to make gingerbread houses with the kids at Christmas time. My mom and dad came up for the weekend for Corbins birthday so I crammed in as many fun things with them as I could. Corbin and Grandpa made one together and Grandma and Alyssa together and Ava and daddy were together. It was a lot of fun, decorating, making fun people taught by grandpa and the occasional sneaking a piece of candy when nobody is looking.

Corbin turns 5

Corbin turned 5 last month (yes I am behind). He had a Transformer party and had a blast with all his buddies. There are 7 boys his age in our neighborhood that he loves to hang out with. We also had to get the "Optimus Prime" Pinata this time!! He got lots of fun toys from family and friends and had a great time finally turning 5 like all his friends.
