Christmas time *%~

Our boys decorated the tree this year, and I couldn't help but let the decorations stay the way they did them. So cute. And here in a couple of years we will get a nicer tree, but for now - it's their tree. So more power to them :) !

This is the first year they went and saw Santa. They both seemed a little nervous the whole time! Now whenever Jack sees anyone with a beard, he yells, "SANTA!". haha



Blake has seemed really interested in potty training lately, so we've just kinda went with it. I think it helps him watching his older brother. He has gone quite a few times in the potty - hopefully he gets the hang of it before his little brother comes! If not, that's okay too! Just excited he seems so excited about it.

I am a fanatic about Christmas lights. We loved driving through the lights in Layton. The boys love seeing them..but they probably liked eating the Christmas cookies better while we were driving through them while listening to Christmas music. Haha. Either way, it was a good time!


We also went and dropped off Christmas baskets to our renters filled with bread, jam, specialty bread, and potpourri. One of the houses we dropped one off at, the renters weren't home.. so I left it on their doorstep. I ran back to the car and asked Trent if he thought anyone would steal the basket full of bread. He replied, "Well if they do, they probably needed it more than either of us. Glad we could help." Awww... I sure love that man! <3



How cute is he? Trent got to ring the bell for the Salvation Army at Wal-Mart the other day. What did he think of it, you may ask? Well, he actually really enjoyed himself. Of course he did! He's is such an awesome person. :) Hope your holidays are filled with joy - and don't forget to spread it yourself!!
