What an amazing christmas. coreys mom and dad came out and we had so much fun. Our christmas eve party was great! We did Kareoke christmad carols, opened presents and Grandpa dalebout read us the christmas story. Christmas eve the kids opened there new pajamas and we gave our gifts to jesus (anything we want to work on through the year or do to improve (gift)) Sprinkled the reindeer food on the lawn and baked santa some cookies. Then christmas morning was a blast! the kids got a lot including bikes form santa and $75 each from their grandparents. you know your kids are spoiled when..... anyway as I suspected Halli was so excited for her ipod. She opened it and started to cry! it was the best present ever, she was so suprised.
Christmas day we spent with my aunt katy and her family. the kids played a lot of Halo and guitar hero. we ate yummy food and played Clue. It was so relaxing and fun. The only bummer was that Steve did not get to call us, but our prayers and hearts are with him out in the feild. Happy new year to all!

I wanted to post some pictures of my house all decorated for christmas. I love all the cards I have gotten from all our family and friends. It is so exciting to go to the mail box each day and get cards! it is the highlight of my day!! We have been watching christmas shows and listening to christmas mucic every day. And the kids are so excited for their presents. I am excited for them because this year they know exactly what they want and they are getting it. Halli thinks that there is no way ever she will get an I pod and she is getting one and I can't wait to see her face on christmas morning!

We can not beleive that 2007 is almost over! It has been such a special year! We took lots of trips...san diego, yosemite,and utah. And day trips all around forthern california. The kids did lots of dance and sports and swimming and playing. Steve left on his mission to Brasil and we added a new person to our family. It has been so much fun, 2007 will always be a memorable year for us! merry christmas.

Ethan playing soccer

He shoots He scores!!
Gaurding the goal

Domination!

Ethan and Halli both played soccer for the first time this year

Ethans team was the fireballs. We had so much fun watching them play

These Picures of him were so good. It looks like he dominates the

ball but really he did a lot of skipping and twirling on the field.

He tried his best and did get a few goals. We are so proud of him.

I don't have the pictures of halli yet. but they will come.

Halloween

Brodey is getting so annimated and cute. He is about 6 1/2 weeks old now and he is actually starting to smile. mostly at Corey because he is Such a fun Dad , and I have been sick this whole week and lost my voice, so mom has not been as much fun.

A picture with his eyes open!

Halloween was so much fun! I think we could have gone trick or treating everyday for a week before halloween. We did 3 trunck or treats before halloween. We actually just kept putting the kids candy back in the give away bowl and gave it all away on halloween. Then filled it back up with their bags after it was over and it is FULL! I think it will take us a year to eat all the candy we have. We went to katy and daves for the night and Coreys sisters Kristen and Jessica came with their families. We had speghetti and it was a blast. Halli was a witch, Ethan was dracula, and the baby wore a cute halloween outfit that grandma cookie gave him. Brodey is getting so animated now. He is 6 1/2 weeks and starting to smile. He is so cute!

We have had such a great Month

What a fun month. We have had some great and amazing changes in our lives lately. Experiences that will last a lifetime. Corey and I feel so blessed to be where we are right now with a new baby and Steve out on a mission.
