I just wanted to give a shoutout to all of our awesome family and friends. Our Holiday Season was so fun. Some of our great memories are: Late Night online Shopping Dates, Christmas cards, Cozy Movie Nights with Popcorn, Stevens Hot Cocoa and Citrus & Spice...which ended up being our neighbor gift to share with our friends, Kamies PJ party, the Nelson Family Party (thanks for the already been chewed box of mints White Elephant), Jane B's homemade caramels and chexmix, and cute cards, awesome neighbor gifts, sweet phone calls, packages from family afar, watching veggietales the toy that saves Christmas and the grinch a gazillion times, Blakes great breakfasts, Sugarcookies, Enchanted-the cutest movie ever, Sledding with the Maughans, Christmas eve crabFeast with the Bosh and Smith Clan, Sledding behind the 4wheeler around our "yard" or lack thereof, Secret Santa, our visit from the Chapmans-Thanks for coming down to our neck of the woods, Our annual couples christmas party, Giftcards, ya gotta' love giftcards, Blockbuster Video-we're old school, I know, reading from our great christmas book collection, oh, last but not least, CHRISTMAS MUSIC!

There are no pictures of Emily because she is a crazy woman. When we do stuff like this we don't even see her the whole time.

I even got into the fun. I went down headfirst a couple of times. Dangerous!

Nate pulling my 3 boys...Blake, Cooper, and Tanner.

Ally and her way too cool self!

Cooper is such a trooper. He loves the Snow!

All ready to go!!! What a nice lookin' machine. (not Blake, the snowmobile)

Serial Killer or Anxious Sledder?

Blake tried to turn over a new leaf this year and replace his Grinchy, Bah Humbug attitude with one of embracing, love and excitement for the Holiday Season. You can see that this turned out to be frightening at first, but after a few days we warmed up to the "new Blake." I especially found this enjoyable. Although tonight I turned on the outside lights and when we returned home he said, "who turned on the Christmas lights?" I said, "me." He quickly replied, "Christmas is OVER!"

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

For those of you who haven't yet received our Christmas card...Here is the picture.

We sacrificed being on time to our ward Christmas Party to get this happy, little Pic. Thanx to Walmart.com for getting these done at the last minute. Isn't technology great?

The name of my Blog should be better late than never!

Here are some fun Holiday Pictures...starting with us decorating the tree.

(yes, I let go of the control freak in me and actually let the kids do the tree)
