Tis the Season to spoil them rotten!



We started off the holiday with Christmas Eve dinner. We were lucky to hog all the grandmas and grandpa again and they did not disappoint! Kate and Sean got a cute little worm from Grandma Debbie and a train set from Grandpa Lyle.


After many months of shopping, cleaning, and planning, not to mention counting down the days and finding the elf every morning, both kids got sick on Christmas eve. I seriously wanted to cry. They still managed to have a good time, but it was so sad to see their sore noses and watch them fight to stay awake. They do look pretty cute in their reindeer jammies. Thanks Grandma!


I think Santa's sleigh crashed in our living room and dumped out way too many toys! But I guess you can't spoil kids that are already spoiled right?



Kate loved all the baby dolls she got from Santa. She has given them countless rides in the stroller and grocery carts. She even got a purse from aunt Shell with keys, a cell phone, and money. She's such a good mama to all of her babies. So cute to watch.


Sean immediately put his new ipod in his jeep and took big bad wolf for a ride while his "stereo" played Michael Jackson's Thriller, otherwise know as the wolf song to Sean. Even though Thriller is probably one of my least favorite MJ tunes, it beats Brittney's Womanizer any day of the week. Cheers to Sean for picking a new favorite song. That kid's a sucker for any song with a good beat.

Here are the grandmas enjoying Christmas breakfast. (Oh yeah, and the 5th grand baby Pip.)

Auntie Em and her Christmas bundle of Joy. I think Pip made out almost as well as Sean and Kate.


Every time we asked Sean what he wanted for Christmas, he always said a spider. Glad Grandma Primmer came through with some spider pjs, and I guess that grin says it all. He really did want a spider for Christmas!

So here's my pathetic attempt to get some dressy Christmas pictures. There's only so much you can do on a Sunday morning, and this is about as good as it gets for happy kids in dress clothes.








(Yep, that's Randy pulling the kids with a lawn mower. No need to say more.)

What was lost now is found.


Well it's no secret that my hard drive crashed. I've told everyone in the world a hundred times about it because it was so traumatizing. The good news is we got almost everything back, so here's a post of random fall pictures in no particular order since all my files were returned that way. I'm sooo glad I got these pictures back!

Halloween 2009
Kate had no trouble fitting in at Sean's preschool.


Party at Aunt Shanna's house.

Preschool pictures.



Going to Dada's work.

Going trick or treating with Aunt Em and Pip.
Yes, Pip is dressed up too. She was a cute little devil (as always.)

Our major award! Dada is so proud of his hot tub!


Oh BABY! If you haven't been to the zoo lately, you're missing out! There is baby everything there. They are so stinkin' cute. I actually could have stayed there all day looking at the beautiful babes.



Grandpa Lyle flying the helicopter with Sean. Our new Sunday morning activity.


We finally went to Thanksgiving point. It was pretty cool, but I'm not going to be making any traditions out of it. It may be a one time thing.





Kate's first pig tails!


See ya later fall. Time to gird your loins for winter. :(
