My kids have rhythm!

I gave my kids a cupcake treat after dinner last night and within 5 minutes, Easton was singing at the top of his lungs! So, daddy turned on some music and we said, "Start Dancing!" to help them burn off some of that sugar...and we were rolling!!! I was laughing so hard at their moves, so I grabbed the camera! - here you go!
Check out Raquelle towards the end...some serious moves! :)
Gotta love the diaper butt! :)

A few more highlights from Reedsport

Yes...this is my SON - Easton! :) LOL!! This picture will haunt him I'm sure when he is 18 years old! :) - good bribe material!
He found nana's fun wig and put it on...he was laughing so hard!!! - and so were we!!! I guess if we ever had a blondie, this is what she would look like!!

Lots of wrestling! That is Byron (Ben's bro) at the bottom of the pile!! The kids LOVED all the playtime they got!!

One morning around 11am, Easton asked to go upstairs to rest. Occassionally we'll let him listen to worship music during a rest time/time out so Ben fastened him in and put him in our bed. After 30min. of not hearing anything from him, I went upstairs and he was OUT! He slept like this for over an hour and a half - at 11am in the morning!! So funny!! Early nap I guess...it was SO sweet!!

Christmas Happenings

December has been a fun and crazy month! My favorite has been having daddy home to hang out, sleep in with, and play games with. I love love love having him around!!! Here are some other highlights:

Nana (Ben's mom) took all the girls to the Nutcracker in Eugene. It was such a fun and new experience! Raquelle had never done anything like that before! It was fun sitting with her and whispering in her ear what was happening and having her continue to ask why the girls were wearing panties! :) And why it was okay that you could see them when they danced! :) LOL! The ballet was amazing and it was a fun day despite Raquelle being right in the middle of a cold!

The cousins
A day before Christmas we headed to Reedsport to hook up with Ben's family for a very low key, yet very fun Christmas! We hung out and didn't do much at all...so relaxing! On the 28th we went over to Ben's aunt's house for some fun, games and the infamous family white elephant!! We actually came away with our OWN gifts! LOL! - so we took the receipt and took them back! LOL!! It was pretty funny!!! So, it was actually the best white elephant I've had! :)
While we were there, my amazing cousin Jamie took us all out to the road in front of our aunt's house and took some family pics! She is such a great photog (check out her website) and so good at capturing some fun and candid moments!! Love you Jamie...thanks for the memories! :)

Then we got home and my family came up for another Christmas celebration!! They just left New Year's Eve, so we've been in our Pj's for the past two days just loving our last few days at home with daddy!! Thank you Lord for our amazing family and such fun memories!!
