Christmas Montage

I can't believe Christmas and New Years has come and gone! Here are a bunch of pics from our festivities. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!

        We had some epic battles playing just dance!

              CK wanted to help everyone open gifts

               I have to tell of CK's new years debacle. We were having some fabulous fondue...3 cheese and of course Swiss Cheese as well as an oil one for veggies and meats. Ck was wandering around the table. Jess' parents table is a booth with a built in bench that wraps around the corner of the dining room and he was walking on top of the bench. I had asked him to get down because he was done eating, and as he walked behind me to get down, he plummeted and scraped his face off on a snag in the wood. OK..so he didn't rip his face off..but he got a good chunk out of his lip and bit the inside of his mouth pretty badly. BLOOD EVERYWHERE! I was so freaked just seeing all the blood! But after a few minutes of screaming and holding pressure to his cuts, we were able to assess the situation and see that he didn't need stitches and had not bitten through his lip like it appeared he had. Whew! Crisis averted :)

                             25 below and my child is running around in a diaper with WET hair! Oh geez....

                  Shay was a wonderful traveler! She slept the entire carride both ways! Only had one blowout on the way home at a friend's house in Pocatello. But other than that she did great! And she passed her 3 week mark while we were in Idaho! My little cute patootie! I am really really hoping her hair stays brown!!!

                       Calvin being a little stud :)

                            Cooper and Porter love Calvin and now love Shay too! We are so lucky to have so many wonderful cousins on both sides of the family! Wish we could see everyone more often though :(

            Did I mention how COLD it was? during the day it was low one digits..but at night it would get to below zero temps! YIKES! Calvin and his cousins were pulled on a sled behind a 4 wheeler..and CK only lasted maybe 10 minutes both times! he was so cold!
