Joan's Birthday Weekend

I had a great birthday weekend! It started Saturday with Kimberly and I helping the girls build gingerbread houses. And then we made sugar cookies.

Jordan was up before light so she could make a snowman.

Jayson took the girls for a ride behind the four-wheeler.

Brody was running circles around the four-wheeler.

Crystal and Jayson gave me a chocolate fountain! YUM!

Jacob liked the blue berries the best.

It was a great weekend until Kimberly got stuck down the road because it was so icy. After lots of scary moments Kevin and Mike (Kim's dad) decided to leave her car there until tomorrow. I LOVE MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE LEXUS!

Decorating the Christmas Tree

The girls some how talked me into a real tree this year instead of my usual fake tree.

Torrin loves to rearrange the little village.

Santa List

Jordan is sooo excited about Santa Claus coming. She wrote him her first letter. She put it in an envelope, addressed it to the North Pole and put a stamp on it. Kim and Jordan mailed it on the way to the bus.

Jordan is very shy around the Santas at the stores but Torrin is not. Torrin is more than happy to sit on their laps and tell them that she wants "everything" for Christmas. Torrin was yelling and waving at Santa in the store the other day. She ran over and jumped in his lap. Jordan hid behind me.
