December happenings

Always trying to catch up.  I didn't post anything in Dec and still haven't blogged our Christmas.  Here's an attempt for Dec...

A great snow fall right after Christmas...trailing on from their break adding 4 snow days!
Kam was hoping so bad for the snow.  The first day we thought we'd get it wasn't much, but the next day it started she was ecstatic!

Decorations and decor!
Trimming the tree and making the home festive.

Attempting a family shot with a little bit of drama and goofiness always involved.

Bree loves playing on the dishwasher.  

She always jump on every chance she gets when it's open! 

Maybe one of these days she'll actually be a helper!

She is so cute...it was fun taking her pics so I tried to go outside and do a better photoshoot.
She wasn't havin' it until we went back inside.  Then she was happy and laughing, clapping and blowing kisses!

I always love taking pics of this little princess.
Her poses always crack me up!

It's always a good laughing trying to get these three in a decent picture!  I love it though.  It's my reality.  This is life with three munchkins.  And getting a one year old to sit still is nearly impossible.
I've learned to keep my expectations low ;)

Kambrie went through a little phase of breaking out in welts.  She would randomly get hives all over and we could never make a connection.  They were in random places too.  Sometimes on her face, or her arm, one time right in the middle of her butt cheek.  It was crazy!  One time it was in the middle of sacrament meeting, another time in the morning right before school they showed up, other times at night.  Nothing consistent with activity or eating...it was so frustrating.
Sometimes she tolerated it okay, and other times she would freak out because it itched so bad.  Poor sweet girl.  I'm so glad they are gone now.  Who knows what it was!!

Our Hyvee grocery store has a kids cooking class FREE every month.  It's awesome!  We make three yummy recipes and we have a blast.

another break out during our activity...poor Kam :(

Bryelle just being as cute and fun as ever!!  She loves saying "pee boo" and clapping and dancing!  She starts moving her bod the second she hears a beat anywhere!!  On the radio, from a toy, whatever.  She has music in her soul!
She's also teething like crazy.  EIGHT teeth popping through.  She's quite miserable...and enjoys chewing on my finger for relief ;)

I always love watching my sleeping angel.
Her positions are always so cute!

Kambrie is a crafting queen.  She loves to create.
When I showed her how to make these fun Christmas tree's with washi tape she went to town and made page after page after page and signed the bottom.  She even added some googly eyes to add character.
Oh i love her!

These are some of my amazing friends.  There is a great bunch of girls that live here at the lake.  It's been awesome having such a great support system of other mommies.
This is at a dinner having to say good-bye to Amanda who is moving.

This is at the CALO Christmas party.  I hardly took any pictures, and didn't even get one with Landon!  Ha!  We had a great dinner and a hypnotist come entertain the mass group.
I have some of my close friends whose husbands have started working at CALO now too, so it's fun to add them to the CALO family!!  woot woot!
