Christmas 2012

For Christmas we stayed home and had a really good time. We had a nice dinner on Christmas Eve, and watched a nativity video, and then acted out the story with our little people nativity set. Then the kids opened their pajamas, and went to bed. Santa came pretty early, so that was nice. Christmas day was fun watching the kids opening their gifts, and playing with their new toys all day. 

 Randy looked on Craigslist, and got this trampoline for free!! This was the favorite present of all! The kids were so excited!! They jump on it all the time, even if it's freezing cold outside.

The day after Christmas, we had our Hare family party, and those are always fun. The kids love spending time with their cousins, and the adults play the white elephant game. We all had a really good time! 

Thanksgiving

So this year I didn't get very good pictures, and I didn't take near enough either! We stayed home and invited Randy's parents and brothers over. The food was SOO scrumptious! And we got to eat off of my fancy china! The kids had a separate table, and used some other "fancy" dishes to make it pretty. 

Daddy's helper

Alison likes to be right in the middle of everything, just like her sisters. She loves to help her daddy! She was a big helper fixing the vacuum, I don't know if he could have done it with out her.

Happy Halloween!!

Most years I don't get too excited about Halloween, but this year Randy and I had a lot of fun dressing up with the kids. Rebekah and Alison dressed up too, but for some reason I don't have the pictures on here. When I find them, I will post them too. :)

Happy Birthday, Alison!

Alison is one!! Seriously, the older I get, the faster time flies by, and I can't believe she is one. I am enjoying every minute of her, she has the cutest personality. We are all having so much fun with her.

Stetsy and Clance's wedding day!

Stetsy and Clance's wedding day was a great day! It was so good to get to go to their sealing, and then go down to the ranch for some dancin' and partying. 

                                                   

 I love this picture of Dad and Stetsy. I love the tears going down his cheeks, 

and how much he loves his daughters.

 Cutting the cake...

 so sweet!....

don't put it past Stetsy to smear it all over his face when she gets the chance!

 

Mom and Dad were so happy, and reminicing about their reception down at the ranch. Dad really wanted to dance with Mom, so I requested the song "Strong Enough to Bend", which was their wedding song, and they were so happy! They looked so good, and so happy. I love how in love they are.
