Christmas Eve Cookies

 Nadya dove right into making cookies for Santa.

 Tysen was a little hesitant at touching the dough. But he loved eating it.

 Carter wanted this part to be over so that he could frost the cookies.

Waiting anxiously for their cookies to be done.

I love that these are the memories and experiences that I am creating for my children. I love you all so much and in a way that only a parent will understand. One day Carter, Tysen and Nadya you too will understand. I can't wait for more experiences and memories to come.

Play Dough Time

So play dough is not really my thing. I hate the way it smells and the way it feels. So when I do allow my kids to play with it they think they are in heaven. Which works for me.

Bramhall Cousin Time

 Wrestling match with Taylor, Carter, and Drew. 

We were so glad that Dave and Tracie were able to stop by while they were here. Now that they live back East it's fun when we get to see them and let the cousins play.

Willard Bay Lights

 On the way to their surprise. I love how excited they look and were.

 The Nativity scene.

Cinderella display. Nadya's favorite, when she spotted it she kept shouting Cinderella. But when she says Cinderella the r just keeps going.

I love our little family traditions and the excitement that it brings to our children. Can't wait till next year.

Bubble Wrap

 "Watch Mom"!

 "Sound"

I love that Tysen and Nadya are the best of friends and that they both get to discover things together. They thought these bubbles were awesome and kept themselves entertained for a good hour.

Christmas Sing-A-Long

 Eating at Litza'a Pizza before the sing-a-long.

 Tysen was getting excited to see Santa.

 We all look so thrilled in this picture, not a good photo op.

 Nadya with two of her favorite people.

Carter loves the sing-a-long and knows the words to most of the songs.

Christmas is coming! Christmas is coming!

Christmas with Great Grandma and Grandpa Bramhall

 Giving Great Grandma her Christmas present.

 A present for Grandpa but my kids will open it.

 Tysen and Nadya's Christmas present from Great Grandma and Grandpa.

 This was the best form of entertainment through out the winter.

A car carrier or magic box or suit case just depends on the moment.

Thank you Mom and Dad for all that you do for our children we love that you get to visit often and that you are always just a phone call away. We love you very much and are lucky to have not only in our lives but the lives of our children as well.
