The Rock Family Files

I downloaded pics from my phone today. Some are blurry but I guess that's what you get with a phone camera.Kyle decided he was done with diapers. Fine by me.

We made a trip to Idaho for a little vacation. We stayed in a hotel for two nights. the kids had a blast swimming and eating pizza by the pool. We were able to stop and see Grandpa and Grandma Rock. Shayla has always liked Grandpa even when she's not to sure about most people.
A horse at their house.
Our little carnivore. I don't know who's child she is. I would not eat that.
The trip back from Idaho. They were worn out.
Sharing
I really need to take more pictures. I guess that is what happens when there isn't a whole lot going on.

Nathan has been able to work from the branch here in Tooele lately and they were nice enough to invite us to their Christmas party.
Santa was also able to come and the kids especially Sofie were really excited. They had us bring gifts before hand for him to give them. Sofie was so excited when Santa gave her a Lalaloopsy doll. She has wanted one really bad and it was even from Santa.
When Santa arrived Kyle kept yelling at him that he had a Santa hat too. I love Sofie's little smile.


Kyle got a Thundercat toy and has already lost it. Pretty sure it's still at the bank somewhere.

Shayla was surprisingly ok with Santa at first. She sat on his lap for quite a few minutes.

Then Shayla was not ok with him. Still a fairly decent picture.

I thought I would make an attempt to document our lives the last month or so. So more pictures and hopefully less words.

Sofie was jipped out of a birthday party around her real birthday and was wondering how that happened when we started talking about her brothers. So she had a low key one just a week or so ago.
There really are no words for this little troublemaker.
This little whozit is taking after her brother quite nicely. She is so naughty.
For Kyle's party we had a couple little boys over.
Right now he loves he-man and thundercats and SWORDS. Of couse Dad is super thrilled about this (I am thinking it brings back his childhood). Do you know the only way to get heman stuff is on ebay and it is pretty cutthroat.
Gran D and Grandpa Clark got him a motorcylcle and a thundercat figurine. He loves them.
Grandma and Grandpa Rock got him a thundercat sword. Another love.
Remember the sword infatuation. He wanted a sword cake. Don't laugh it was the best I could come up with. He loved it though, that's what counts.
We put Sofie in dance this last year and she had the chance to dance in the nutcracker. She had fun and especially loved getting flowers after. I think she felt pretty special.
I think this picture is hilarious.
She was able to perform one more time for the Walmart Christmas party.
An attempt at a Christmas picture. As you can tell a total fail as I am missing a whole kid.
Decorating the Christmas tree
I had to wash her blankets today. Obviously she is not thrilled.

So there you go. I am sure I have missed an awful lot but I think that is a pretty good try.

WARNING: Picture overload, I couldn't pick.
We had Christel take some family pictures for us yesterday. I think they are great. But poor Sofie had an extremely runny nose and did not feel the best. She did great though.
