Kaeson has wanted to build a snowman for such a long time. He has seen that pretty much everyone in our neighborhood has a snowman. Yesterday was such a nice day, Clint decided to take him out and have some fun. 
As you can tell, Kaeson thinks his snowman is the best. I added the hat, scarf and nose and that is when he started getting very curious about this SNOWMAN.
Since our first snow fall we have been making a huge pile of snow and we finally made a cave. Kaeson loves it.
She even has her hands behind her back, what a proper little girl.
Can you tell Kaeson is excited about his new backpack? He loved preschool today. He can't wait to go back. I'm so happy that he was accepted and is able to go. He is growing up so fast.
I think it is about time that I move that chair. What do you think?
Kaeson saying "Hi" to Papa. As many of you know we headed to California for Christmas. This was the first year that Clint and I spent with my family for Christmas. It was a long 13 hours but we were able to cut the trip 2 hour by spending the night with some friends from College. Thanks Rusty and Brendi! We had a lot of fun hanging out and getting our keys back. Driving to California was probably the worst day of my life. Clint got a ticket in Nevada that cost us 185 dollars, I locked the keys in the truck which took 2 1/2 hours to get out and then we found out that we have AAA and they would have come out to do it for free, and Ellie was crying pretty much the whole time. Despite our drive we had a great time.
Ellie warmed right up to Papa and was playing with him in no time. I love this picture because she has a toy train driving it up Papa.
I was a little surprised that my kids did so well with new faces since we don't see my family very often, they did great and had fun.
Kaeson got a train set, which is what he really wanted. 
Playing with Ellie and showing her how it works.
Kaeson loves his train and will make a tunnel with his legs for it to go through.
I'm not sure what Kaeson was doing but he sure did have fun in the box. Maybe he wanted to be my present which is the greatest present of all. 
Kaeson liked Reggie's bed more then Reggie. We spent Christmas Eve with my mom and sisters and Chirstmas with my Dad. Going to seperate places was harder then I thought but we made it work out.
Kaeson playing Wii with Tommi. He had fun with Tommi and Tori.
On our way home was much better. Ellie must have been really tired cause she fell right asleep with this candy cane.
Both of them were worn out. It made for a nice trip home.
We spent New Years Eve with Clint's family for a couple of hours. The kids got to pop lots of balloons and had fun. After the fun was over we headed to spend some time with friends. It was a short night but we were able to put the kids to bed around 8:30. 
Clint got a camel pack for Christmas and Kaeson has been using it a lot. I really don't like when he uses it cause then he has to go to the bathroom a lot but he sure does like it.
My mom made Kaeson this really neat car mat. She did a great job and we had fun helping her color it. Thanks mom, he loves it.
Since we have about 8 inches of snow we decided to go to the skate park and have fun. It was hard coming back to snow because it was so nice being in 60 degree weather while we were there.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas and I hope everyone has a happy New Year!
Spraying each other.
Kaeson thought it was pretty cool that I made him a train cake. He was so excited to watch me put it together and eat it. 
Love this face. Pure joy!!!
The boys got first dibs on the candy. They sure went to town. I think baby Karter enjoyed it too.
There is nothing that I love better then when my children play together. It makes Ellie feel like such a big girl and Kaeson is enjoying her more.
He's getting so big, Clint thought we should teach him how to shave. Well actually Kaeson does everything Clint does. Clint was shaving so Kaeson and Ellie had to as well. 
Yes Ellie is sharing her food with Samba. What a goofy girl. 
We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and remember the very special person that we are truly celebrating.
Kaeson pulling his new sled
Clint and Kaeson going down the sled. Kaeson did not like going down the big hills. I think it was because snow got in his face. But Ellie loved going down the big hills.
Kaeson pulling his sled up the hill.
Ellie and Kaeson going down together. Ellie absolutely loves the snow. She would fall down just to put her face in the snow to get a nice cold treat.
Kaeson sharing one headphone. They are listening to some tunes.
Since we have been locked inside (3 degree weather) we have had to come up with some new activities.
The kids love it.
Clint was pulling Kaeson in the sled and I just loved this picture of Ellie.
We went to the dentist and the kids did great. Ellie was a little scared of having new hands in her mouth but she didn't cry.
Kaeson did awesome. He has no cavities, which is fantastic!!!
The doctor decided to numb the split.
We had to wait for about 20 minutes before the doctor would put the staples in.
I thought that I would add that the only time Kaeson cried was when he hit it for about a minute, until I kissed it better. He didn't cry when the doctor put the staples in, which was pretty amazing. And he doesn't cry when I have to put medicine on it. (Thanks Morgan for the reminder)
Waiting to go for a ride, and checking out the bus.
Loving the view
After a block, Ellie decided she wanted to be a big girl and sit in a chair too. 
Since Clint has been gone we have had to find extra things for us to do. We made these fun turkey hats. Ellie really likes her's.
I guess Tigger was really hungry because he was eating some of Kaeson's eggs. 
Pooh just sat there looking at his eggs, he couldn't reach so he didn't eat.
The other reason this is a table of three is because Clint had to leave for a week for work and will be back on Saturday. I hope it won't be to bad without Clint. I know the kids will miss him so much. If anyone wants to play this week please call me.
