Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2011

Our Christmas was wonderful!  It would have been nice to see some more family and friends but minus that it was a great holiday for us! At least this year I didn't have to work! 
 
The traditional Christmas Eve roving tree and Santa visit...
 

 Grandpa Gary and Grandma Teri came for dinner and brought presents for the kids.  They loved their presents!!  It was a good evening and the kids really enjoyed their visit.


Just before bed the kids opened their Christmas PJ's, which were blue cozy robes. Rylee kept checking out the presents they would get to unwrap the next morning, he was SOO excited! They made cookies and set out cookies and milk for Santa.


Then it was Christmas morning!!  The kids woke up really, really early!  They woke up at around 3:30, or at least Dylan did. They waited for Kirk and I to get up and finally decided to wake us up at 6:30 am.  Sounds like they had patience, huh!  But they did sneak opening a couple things and looked at what was in their stockings. 



Later in the day the kids took out their new play snowboards to use them.  That is a hard thing to do without very much snow.  Dylan ended up getting hurt playing on his and came in and laid on the couch the rest of the day because he hurt his back.  I felt so bad that  he got hurt. We will have to wait until there is more snow before they do that again!
 It was a great Christmas and we really enjoyed spending time together as a family!  Lets hope that the next Christmas will be as good as this one!

Rylee's 3!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYLEE!!! My little guy is 3 now. The plan was to try and take Rylee to the zoo for his day but that didn't work out for this weekend anyway. So his birthday happened to fall on a day that was being celebrated by the whole town for Hayden Daze and we went to that instead. They jumped in the inflatables and Dylan got his face painted. Rylee just did not have the patience to stand in line long enough to get his done. What can you expect? He's only 3 :) They played on the slip and slides and Dylan got to do some rock climbing We had planned to have a little party for Rylee with some friends. But since they couldn't make it we decided to just make it fun with just our family. First Balloons!! And boy, did they have fun :) Rolling around in them, trying to pop them by squishing them in a big hug and we cant leave out the big bellies and boobs! Then he opened his presents, played with them and we ate cake! After all that fun we finished the night off with a funny...

It's Our 11th Anniversary!!

Oh my, does time fly. It's pretty weird to think that we have been married for 11 years. I don't think we feel old enough for that much time to have gone by, but we will continue to grow old and wrinkly together forever! Happy Anniversary to US!! Kirk and Camilla on our wedding day.... No we didn't have a big fancy wedding but we were there together and with our family and friends and enjoyed ourselves, that's all that matters! A couple more pic's of us together throughout the years.... 2002 Somewhere between 2003-2004 2007 2008

Indoor Playground

Who needs to play outside when the playgound is right here in the house! We have a couple mattresses that used to be for Dylan's bunkbed that have apparently turned into a slide and trampoline. I'm thinking this looks like alot of fun and I have been tempted to try it out for myself, but I'm pretty sure I would look alot less graceful then they do :) Don't mind the multicolored walls.....we ran out of paint in the middle of the job.
