Kate and Maddie
Preston, Dalton and Tayson

Jessie and Kate
Wilson Christmas Party
Scott and Sue held their annual Christmas party on Saturday. The Whitney's (Greg's Aunt and Uncle) always share this party with us, so it's really fun! We have good food, gifts and play games. The kids really look forward to this! This year Sue decided not to "plan" to much because the kids just enjoy playing with each other. They are so lucky to have so many cousins living so close! Thanks for another great party Grandma and Grandpa!


{WINTER}

Snow came early to Utah this year and gave the kids plenty to do for a few weeks! Ty skied 4 times in one week and Dalton and Kate spent hours outside! I took Kate, Dalton and Preston sledding one day and they had a great time. Unfortunately, it is gone for now so we're hoping for some good storms coming soon! November 2010
{Did someone say they wanted to see Santa?}


Well, after skipping a year of going to "see" Santa, Kate said she was ready to see the big man! Last year we communicated through email and that worked very well! I didn't ask, urge or even hint for her to go see Santa so I thought she was really ready. She told me what she was going to tell him and even questioned why the other children would be scared of Santa?!

So.......the moment came and........she wasn't ready! Not a word, smile, NOTHING! Luckily, I knew the people standing behind me because she had a death grip on me and I couldn't take a pic of her while holding her! Before the moment, we talked about displaying the cute pic of her and Santa. Unfortunately, there is no perfect pic but she was satisfied with her visit! Funny girl!
{happy birthday ty!}

Ty celebrated his twelfth birthday this past weekend. We were lucky enough to get Jazz tickets for the game on Friday (thanks to the Coleman's), so I took Ty and went to the game. We had so much fun and it was a great game! They were giving out t-shirts at the door and he got his picture taken with some cute Jazz dancers. He was embarrassed, but he loved it!

He was happy to receive some great gifts as well as cash! Ty is a great kid. He is so responsible, smart, and funny. He is really fun to hang out with! He seems to know everyone and is so aware of what everyone is doing. He has a great memory too! We always give him a hard time about his room because he stores anything he could ever need in his room. It's kind of like Smith & Edwards in there.....if you can't find it there, you don't need it!

I wish he could stay 12 forever, because I don't want a teenager! Thanks for being such a great kid Ty!


LoRdy, LoRdY, LoOk wHo'S 40!

Greg reached a milestone birthday this year....40 years old! Remember when that sounded old? Everyone knows he's not one for a big crowd, so I left it up to him to plan his own night. He chose Pizzeria and a Comedy Club. We went with Cody and Sheri, so they made sure to embarrass him a bit at dinner and decorate a little! It was funny and we had a great night...and laughed a lot!
