We went ice-skating with the Thomsons.  It was Aliyah's first time skating.  She was excited to try it and did a very good job!

They had something similar to a walker for her to use to help keep her up her first few tries around the rink.

Aliyah loved it and can't wait to do it again.  We were proud of her and amazed at how quickly she caught on!

The Kindergartners sang a couple of Christmas songs for us.

One song was in English (Must be Santa) 

and the other song was in Spanish (a song about Campanas - which is bells).

They did a great job!  Aliyah had been practicing so much at home that both Packer and Hailey knew the songs and could sing a long with her :)

It was fun to go watch her sing!

We had a Thomson family picture taken before Jayce went on his mission.

Decorating our Christmas tree!

The kids were great helpers!  They were so excited and anxious, I couldn't pull the ornaments of the boxes fast enough!

Here are some pictures of Grandpa and Grandma Thomson reading books to the kids one night before they went to bed.  They had dropped something off just before bedtime and the kids quickly and easily convinced them to stay to read them a story!

We are so excited to be expecting another baby!!!

Baby #4 is due June 8th and we are all thrilled!

Grandpa and Grandma Thomson got us tickets to see the Nutcracker!

Aliyah really enjoyed it last year and this was Hailey's first time seeing it and she enjoyed it too!

The first scene (the Christmas party scene) was a little long for Hailey and she kept asking when the ballerina's would come out - ha ha.  She was looking for the dancers in tutus.

We had a great evening.

Thanks Grandpa and Grandma!
