Quading with friends

A couple days after Christmas we took the kids and went with some friends down to southern Colorado and road quads for a few days. It was great weather and the kids had a blast. Oh and so did Mom and Dad.

Christmas 2008

Christmas has come and gone so fast. We always enjoy having the kids out of school and just hanging out with them. We played games, watched movies, made goodies for friends and neighbors, but most of all we had some quality time as a family.
We went to see the lights at the Denver Zoo, Burrr... it was cold!

Looking for Mr. Pickle... They looked HIGH...

and LOW...

After 25 min. of searching Terryn was the champ!!

Tris got a visit from Santa and the Tooth Fairy this year.

Christmas Eve dinner

Welcome to the Gun Show!!

11:00 the kids finally went to bed and Mom and Dad started wrapping. 5:30 we finished placing the last present by the tree and then we passed out.

We woke up to the sound of pitter-patter and giggles at 6:30. Santa filled the kids slippers with goodies and left their presents by their door, so we talked them into letting us sleep for 30 more min. Thanks kids!!!

Ty was so excited.

What a crazy bunch!!














Terryn checking out her I-Pod touch













Tav being a goof..

Tris finally got his own PSP.

We don't call 911 !!!













Tavin had to posed by all his presents, what a cutie.












Juicy, Juicy, Juicy...

Tris got a Pro Wheelie. I don't have to come running

to the TV anymore to see what he wants.

I hope the DS will keep him busy for a while.

Cool jacket dude!

climbing the walls

Oh MY Gosh!!!!! it's not even Christmas break and the kids are already climbing the walls.

Let it snow......

We finally got a little bit of snow, just enough for the kids to go sledding and for Dave to plow the driveway. This year he has a little buddy to help him. The next day or so Dad built the kids a snow man to welcome them home from school. Frosty looked so good he almost looked fake.

Tavin and Ty both have birthdays in December. Tavin turned 5 and Ty turned 10. Where does the time go? My babies are growing up. They are both great kids and we thank the lord every day for blessing our family with their sweet spirits. Tav is into everything especially his brothers things. He still is my little SNUGGLE PUPPY and we sing that song just about every day to each other. If I have made him upset he tells me that he won't EVER sing me that song again or he tells me that he isn't my snuggle puppy anymore. That lasts about, oh a half hour then I'll hear him in the other room singing it.

Ty is going to be the next Travis Pastrana, he loves to ride his dirt bike and is always trying to break his record for the longest jump. I'll find him and his brothers in the back yard putting more dirt on the ramp to make it bigger. Sometimes I just have to go inside and not watch.

This year he took 3 of his friends and Tris snowboarding for his birthday they had a blast.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOYS we all love you both very much.
